Don Miguel Ruiz was born into a family of healers and raised in rural Mexico by a curandera (healer) mother and nagual (shaman) grandfather. His family anticipated he would follow in their footsteps however he chose to attend medical school and become a surgeon.
He began teaching in the States alongside his mother in small groups. As he continued to teach he realized that he preferred to share his lineage through the oral tradition rather than the healing tradition.
As his students grew in numbers and his guidance with them he created 'The Four Agreements' after watching his students struggling to quiet their minds. He created practical tools that can result in consistent and long term personal transformation.
The tools shared by don Miguel are based on common sense and shared with such simplicity, that the universal message underlying his teaching is recognized by many.
In the tradition of the Toltec, a Nagual guides an individual to personal freedom. Combining new insights with old wisdom, don Miguel has dedicated his life to sharing the ancient Toltec wisdom by translating it into practical concepts that promote transformation through truth and common sense.
After surviving a near fatal heart attack in 2002 he has been unable to make many public appearances.
When he knew that he could not return to public touring, don Miguel turned to his son, don Jose Luis, and witnessed the passage of a young man into the new Nagual in the Eagle-Knight lineage; don Jose.
