“Brad Keeney’s work is a living example of what we need in our field at this stage of evolution: a synthesis of traditional and modern, east and west, body and soul.”
—Gay Hendricks, PhD, author of "Conscious Loving"
“Hearing Bradford Keeney tell his remarkable stories, you can't help but think of Indiana Jones.”
