Publishing
Crazy Wisdom Publishing makes books that are rich in value and inspiration. Each book speaks to us across time, and reminds us of the common and universal connection we have with the earth and with each other in community. Every generation finds its voice by rediscovering past teachers, mystics, geniuses, misfits, rebels, and troublemakers. Our books are chosen as companions to the Unruly Mystic film series — each one deepens the story that begins on screen and offers readers a way to continue their journey with the subjects and landscapes that inspire the films.

Travels in Alaska by John Muir
Travels in Alaska offers a memorable travelogue of Muir’s three journeys to Alaska in 1879, 1880, and 1890, enhanced with original illustrations from his sketchbook and historic photographs. A perfect companion to The Unruly Mystic: John Muir — reading Muir in his own words brings the landscape and the man vividly to life.

Hildegard Speaks by Annette Esser
A well-researched multi-language companion to The Unruly Mystic: Saint Hildegard, this book includes chapter notes, a detailed historic timeline, an illustrated color map of the Hildegard Way in Germany, and colorful images from the land of Hildegard — ideal for pilgrims, scholars, and anyone drawn to her enduring legacy of creativity and spiritual vision.
The films, books, and tours are Crazy Wisdom Films’ gifts to remind us of the unruly mystics who stood strong and were brave, open, and eternally wide awake — their messages continue to inspire and challenge today’s status quo. Learn more about the mission behind Crazy Wisdom Films.
