Autorenporträt

Hi folks! My name is Muz Murray. Once upon a time... I was a surrealist painter, a scenery and costume designer in the theatre, actor, songwriter, nightclub singer, and world-travelling adventurer. Escaping death by inches while hitchhiking all down Africa, and clinging on to the outside of an express train all through the night as a wandering monk in India, during my search for spiritual knowledge from masters of many traditions, the media have dubbed me "The Indiana Jones of Yoga."
You can find out a lot more about my wild life on my website, here:

Author of four spiritual self-help books and two for children, as well as several study CDs, over 50 videos on YouTube, plus interviews on BBC TV, Dutch and Italian TV networks, and a life-story documentary on Netflix in a series named Fractals.
Finally, after half a century as a spiritual mentor, teaching yoga secrets all over the world, it is now my pleasure to live a hermit-style life in the hills of southern Portugal, with a thousand geckos (and the denizens of the Grassy Green Meadow and Windily Wood) as my only companions.
