Who is Don Miguel Ruiz?

Don Miguel Ruiz (born 1952), born Miguel Ángel Ruiz Macías, is a Mexican author of Toltec spiritual and personal development writing. His books draw on ancient teachings as a path to spiritual enlightenment, and they have found their warmest reception among readers of the New Thought movement; some associate his work with that of Carlos Castaneda, author of The Teachings of Don Juan.

Recognition has followed the readership: in 2018 Ruiz was named among the Watkins 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People. He sits in that small company of spiritual writers whose ideas travel well beyond the shelves they are filed on – quoted, gifted between friends and returned to at intervals, which is its own kind of endorsement.

Don Miguel Ruiz in audiobooks

The Four Agreements is the Ruiz title in our catalogue and the natural way in: a distilled statement of his Toltec-rooted teaching, organised – as the title promises – around four plain commitments. Books of this kind are meant to be absorbed slowly and revisited often, and audio suits that use perfectly: many listeners will replay it the way others reread. British listeners wary of the self-help shelf should know this is its gentler, more contemplative end – spiritual teaching rather than hustle – and it is best approached in that spirit, ideally somewhere quiet.
