Enjoy! 

Guest Bio

When he was only 14 years old, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. apprenticed to his father don Miguel Sr. and his grandmother, Madre Sarita, to learn how to they manifested their intent to heal people, both physically and spiritually. When he reached his mid-20’s, after 10 years of apprenticeship, his father intensified his training.  This training culminated one day when don Miguel Ruiz Sr. sent his eldest son out in the world, saying, “Find your way out. Go home and master Death by becoming alive.”

As a Nagual,  Miguel Jr. is finally ready to pass along the wisdom and the tools of his family’s traditions.

Along with his father, don Miguel Ruiz Sr., and brother, don Jose Ruiz,  don Miguel Jr. leads workshops, retreats and power journeys to help others to achieve their own personal freedom and optimal physical and spiritual health.   He also hosts a successful weekly internet radio show, “The Way of the Desert”.
