Dear
Thank you for your excellent website and caring to help people live a more responsible and fulfilling existence. I am a Doctoral Student in Ecopsychology and appreciate your efforts. I think I can help further them and appreciate your website's invitation to contact you.
I would like to share the Natural Systems Thinking Process (NSTP) with you. It is psychologically bringing about a powerful, positive change, both to the individual, as well as our planet. I feel your site is eligible to link to it and gain support from it.
Our destructive relationships seldom disappear until our emotional dependencies on these relationships subside. NSTP helps people make this change. That's why Dr. Robert Muller, former Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations, and recipient of the Albert Schweitzer Peace Prize states that NSTP, "Offers an environmentally sound, hands-on educational process that catalyzes peace and promotes mental health. It fulfills our personal and economic needs and deeper ideals."
NSTP activities evoke an inner sense of beauty, soul and love that is often absent in many traditional psychological processes and therapies. Dr. Mark Germine, Editor in Chief of Psychoscience Journal, writes: "I'm a psychiatrist and have done or know just about every kind of therapy there is. You have developed a kind of basic and applied science for reaching down into the ordinarily unconscious area of pure feeling, an essence of nature... I've done hypnosis and other techniques and have not seen such a deeply unconscious state brought to the surface before."
Perhaps you would agree with Albert Einstein when he says, "The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." I have observed that the Natural Systems Thinking Process enables people to attain a higher level of responsible thinking.
Your staff and visitors might recognize that contemporary society needs an environmentally sound recovery and healing program. We must engage in a process that helps us dissolve our psychological dependencies upon destructive materials and relationships and replaces them with constructive participation. This is being accomplished through the inexpensive NSTP books and courses and online, home study, Ph.D. and M.S. degree programs. They accredit a person's prior training and work experiences and are readily available through the Institute of Global Education, a special NGO consultant to the United Nations Economic and Social Council.
Many of our NSTP Cooperative webpage visitors would be interested in learning of your website and services. For this reason I invite you to reciprocally link to our site at http://www.ecopsych.com/coop.html . Please let me know if you are interested in this mutually beneficial link opportunity or some other aspect of our program.
For Global Wellness,
Your Name

DRAFT ANNOUNCEMENT:
Free cooperative offers online education for sustainablity
Research by a group of graduate students and faculty studying nature-connected psychology shows that people using a sensory nature-reconnecting process can produce sustainable personal, mental and environmental wellness. The group's Natural Systems Thinking Process (NSTP) enables people to dissolve psychological dependencies upon destructive materials and relationships and replace them with constructive participation.
The group has formed a cooperative, online, M.S. and Ph.D degree program where they help teach and fund NSTP and thereby learn ecopsychology. Their program also incorporates a participant's prior training and work experiences. It dramatically reduces M.S. and Ph.D. costs and time by 70%, making the benefits of an accredited university degree available to many people who could otherwise not afford it. The cooperative is free and open to all. It operates through the Institute of Global Education, a special NGO consultant to the United Nations Economic and Social Council.
