BUILDING TRUST OUTDOORS HELPS NATURAL THERAPY TRAINING FOR LIFE COACH

I was drawn to do this activity simply with the night. I went outside and asked permission of the night and the night landscape. We get tumultuous winds here--last week up to 80 mph, for instance. So the stillness of the night was really amazing and I savored it. Every little peep is magnified, as if in an echo chamber. The silence of the night brings out such sensitivity. I could sense the electronic devices around (eg. pumps going on and off) and could also feel the infinitude of the night.

There had been some rain, making the ground unusually fragrant, reminiscent of my beloved land of lakes back East, where I grew up inhaling the perfume of the wet soil. There was also some humidity in the air, which also reminded me of my old stomping grounds, so I was in heaven. The scent of the soil after a good, hard rain brings me so much delight. The original aromatherapy for me.

I have a lot of trust in the night. I stayed in the 5-acre meadow and, with eyes closed, settled into a cozy meditation pattern. So peaceful. The feeling of infinity in everything. I was so content, period.

Being a Life Coach, I was very grateful to be out there instead of running around with my necessary projects indoors. With eyes open, I saw everything in shades of black, bluish, and grey. I thought, "at least in the cities they have the sky," then remembered that on the East Coast, often the sky is hidden by smog. so I thought, "at least they have the day and the night" in terms of external nature.

I was cold and went in and got extra clothes. Cozy warm, I continued outdoors. Very grateful. Not that big a difference between eyes open and closed. At the end, I walked close to the forest. Had I started out in the forest at nightfall, I would have stayed in the forest. I know of no one who goes in the forest here at night, due to the mountain lions. Choosing to be prudent, I did not walk into the forest, though it was prudence and not fear that kept me out (and my time was up). I am very grateful to be able to stop, sense, feel, and move.

It would be wonderful to be able to bring people who are dying, people who have physical challenges and are largely immobile, to a place like this--or if not, to be able to bring it to them in the form of aromatherapy, plants, anything wild that doesn't mind being indoors. Why do I think the activity led me to feel as I did: the cessation of daily tasks, the awesome stillness, the "thusness" of the landscape, the quiet of night, and the fact that everyone who lives here adores nature or they wouldn't live here, brings a sense of peace.

Too many quotes from the reading were my favorites, but I did not think of them when doing the exercise and they did not bring meaning to the experience, as I did not think of them then. When engaged in a direct experience, it is simply that.

I loved that science should include sensation, alive or dead, each being is naturally attractive, and what we call "things" are actually natural attraction relationships

We must re-sense and re-think ourselves as part of nature, for that is the truth. Speaking the truth about our society as a cancer, nature rewards us with good feelings, in some way every member is attractive and included, every form of education and counseling works better in nature.

A prominent rabbi (loved by people of many faiths all over the world), Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, teaches us to thus interpret this word as people being told to go down [to learn from] the fishes, the birds, etc. Nowhere does it have to be translated "dominate." Hebrew is a multi-faceted, non-linear language and thus is a challenge to convey all its nuances of meaning into a more linear language like Greek or English. Again in the Bible's original language, it is clear that a person is made from all that was created before, so humans are every bit a part of nature--without nature we would not be, period.

"Human behavior is rooted most deeply in nature's intentions and desire. The rhythms of nature underlie all of human interaction: religious traditions, economic systems, cultural and political organization. When these human forms betray the natural psychic pulse, people and societies get sick, nature is exploited and entire species are threatened."

-Stephen Aizenstat

 


In industrial society our excessively nature-separated lives mold us to betray the natural psychic pulse. We learn to block from our thinking over 98 percent of the wise sensory callings and fulfillments we normally share with natural systems and their eons of experience. Our subconscious hurt and frustration from the severed disconnection of these senses underlies our greatest troubles.

-Michael J. Cohen

 

Benefit from learning to enhance the natural psychic pulse within and around us. Add the sensory ecoscience of Organic Psychology to your life and livelihood.
