An Instutite of Global Education, open-to-all, free, distance learning, nature-connected study, grant, scholarship and loan program. The Institute supports healing and therapy courses, degrees and jobs that help us improve our personal and global health and wellness.
Based on the book Educating, Counseling and Healing With Nature
Organic Well-Being for Self, Society and the Environment
Affordable, nature-connected counseling, education, psychology healing and self-help online.
Organics work with nature instead of against it.
Organic Psychology is an enabling tool that helps us create thoughtful sensory moments in natural areas. In them, the perfections of nature's grace, balance and restorative power help us improve our intelligence, relationships and spirit.
"Our greatest problems result from the difference between how we think and how nature works."
- Gregory Bateson
Or-gan-ic .Psy-chol-o-gy :
1. A nature-connected thinking and relating process. An sensory tool that helps us safely make conscious contact with natural systems that flow through ourselves and the environment.
2. A social technology that enables us to add nature's grace, balance and restorative powers to our personal and professional relationships.
3. A peaceful, natural attraction-based art and science that can be added to any endeavor. This unifying process helps us think, feel and interact while in conscious sensory contact with the self-correcting and purifying flow of natural systems within and about us.
"The science of Organic Psychology helps us thoughtfully recycle the detrimental ways we think and feel. It enables us to beneficially interlace our thinking with nature and help its recycling powers compost into fertile thoughts the garbage that destructive aspects of society have dumped into our mind.
Once restored, the intelligence of our psyche effectively repairs the damage we have inflicted on each other and the land.
Thinking and feeling with nature gives us the ability to transform the destructive hurt from our natural systems disconnection into constructive relationships. Through this process we immunize ourselves to the callings of irresponsible choices.
Our destiny depends upon us using Organic Psychology as tool to expand our consciousness and strengthen our love for the whole of life."
- Michael J. Cohen
"Radical? My organics dictionary defines a radical as the leading-edge growing tip of a root."
- Raymond Sierra
Anyone who has enjoyed a good experience with nature --backcountry, backyard or with their pet, or with the wind, sea or stars-- knows nature's potential for increasing our peace of mind and our reverence for all of life.
We suffer our great dysfunctions and stress because over 99 percent of our thinking is disconnected from the equilibrium powers of nature within and around us.
Through Organic Psychology, one simple, online nature-connecting course enables us to add the recycling ways of nature to our thinking and relationships. This gives us the much needed ability to make non-polluting environmental and social conscience part of our every endeavor.
