Dr. Hank Wesselman ("Dr. Hank") is a paleoanthropologist and shamanic journeyer. He has spent 30 years working in the Great Rift Valley researching human evolution alongside Donald Johanson, Tim White, and members of the Leakey family among others. He also regularly lectures and gives shamanic journeying workshops with his wife, Jill Kuykendall. He currently teaches anthropology at American River College and Sierra College in between research trips.

Wesselman, as a scientist and a mystic, does much to try to bring together those two perspectives, which are often considered to be opposing in modern culture. He does not consider them opposing and continues in his anthropological studies while on his mystic path.

Dr. Hank holds the belief that a world-changing sociological revolution is under way: " It is no news to anyone in the Western World that increasing numbers of people are leaving our mainstream religions in droves. What is news is that this is not an atheistic movement. Quite the contrary. A wide-spread spiritual reawakening is taking place--one that is cutting across socioeconomic levels of achievement and status, one that is transcending cultural, political, and ethnic boundaries as well".
