“The most striking example of the cures and philosophies being offered that have their origins in [cultural] practices.”
TIME magazine
“Dr. Keeney's work marks the beginning of an awakening of the universal life force that is accessible to everyone. I have personally experienced his method of moving the life force in my own body - circulating it up and down my spine, passing it through my fingertips, and feeling it tingling the tips of my toes. It is time for each of us to become acquainted with this energizing force and bring it into our daily life.”
DR. ROBERT FULFORD, featured in Dr. Andrew Weil's
Book, Spontaneous Healing
“Brad Keeney is a genuine spiritual enthusiast who will electrify your life. He made my spine tingle, legs dance, and provided a new context for visionary experience.”
DR. CARL HAMMERSCHLAG, author of The Dancing
Healers and a member of the Speakers Hall of Fame
“Hearing Bradford Keeney tell his remarkable stories, you can't help but think of Indiana Jones.”

Bradford Keeney's speech performances are typically entitled:
SHAKING MEDICINE
The Original Path to Ecstasy and Healing
Professor Keeney presents inspirational storytelling, audience involvement, music, percussion, and ecstatic movement. He has been called a radical evocateur because of the uncommon ways his improvisational performances touch people's lives.
With theatrical performance skills backed by scholarship, he makes a compelling and entertaining case for the positive contribution shaking medicine has made to diverse cultures throughout the world. He shows how it can profoundly transform people's ways of knowing and being, inspiring them to be more fully human. Based on decades of field research with shaking healers, shamans, and spiritual teachers, Professor Keeney proposes that ecstatic shaking was the original entry to experiencing the mysterium tremendum. As he likes to say, "Move over meditation. It's time for shaking medicine!" His presentations are designed to comfortably fit and appropriately inspire the unique audience and situation he is working with.
