Our Mission
Coyote Institute provides workshops, seminars, trainings, and consultations related to indigenous knowledge and practices as well as personal and planetary transformation.
The mission of the Coyote Institute, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is to enrich contemporary medicine and psychology with the knowledge and wisdom of indigenous cultures. We aim toward Two-Eyed Seeing, celebrating indigenous knowledge and wisdom, while appreciating the insights of contemporary academic science, and determining how we can do both in a complementary fashion without diminishing either.
The Coyote is our muse, because Coyote is a powerful North American symbol for change and transformation. Coyote's job is to intervene when any system gets too rigid and inflexible, providing the input to move the system toward transformation and change. Coyote is the only species in North America currently spreading into every habitat. Plus, Coyote is just downright fun and we need more fun these days. We believe that change and transformation can be humorous and joyful, while also being loving and compassionate.
Events and Workshops
We offer in-person experiential workshops and online education in narrative approaches to facilitate change and transformation.
