Box 1605, Friday Harbor, WA 98250 360-378-6313 mailto:nature@interisland.net http://www.ecopsych.com   Dear Web Page Visitor, Thank you for your interest in nature-connected organic psychology and it effects. Your visit here leads me to ask this question: Do you recognize that our thinking and feeling are our destiny? If your answer is "yes," then I can help you further your personal and professional goals. You see, because our thinking learns to omit a critical element, in industrial society we unnecessarily erode our well-being and suffer great personal and environmental disorders. This missing element would ordinarily help us solve problems more effectively. It would energize into our consciousness and relationships more than 45 natural senses that industrial society has conquered or frightened into our subconscious. We unnecessarily suffer our most challenging problems because, on average, we spend 98 percent of our lives and thinking disconnected from the beneficial contributions of our natural senses. The missing element makes their benefits available. Your organization and its members will benefit from this element if you are comfortable with three major facts: 1. Nature produces no garbage. 2. Natural systems are self-correcting and purifying.  3. Natural systems flow through all of life including us. Stress, abusiveness, depression and many other disorders result from our abuse or neglect of natural systems and our senses that register them. The missing element that we must use is Organic Psychology. It enables any individual, group or organization to help natural systems recover from our neglect of them. As they recover, we benefit from their grace and restorative powers. For example: Due to brain injury in a cycling accident, Bart, a writer, could no longer write due to head pain. For years he suffered constant pain that that did not respond to repeated surgical, chemical and psychological and meditation treatment. He sought alternatives from the Internet, discovered Organic Psychology and took an eight week online class in it. He did the course's nature connecting activities with an attractive group of trees in the center of his town. His heightened sensory relationship with them and his online classmates enabled him to overcome his pain so that he could write again. When the trees were later to be removed for development, Bart passionately rallied the town to protest their demise. The town saved the trees and became more involved with Organic Psychology. Similar situations have occurred with respect to lowering high cholesterol levels and reducing anxiety. For example: "I'm Andy Prescott. Poet. Wombed in Nature disconnection. Mom smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol. As did Dad. He was also emotionally distant. "Let him cry," the doctor who delivered me told my parents --as doctors did in 1953-- when I wouldn't stop. After 2 weeks of this, doc figured out I wasn't getting milk from mom. 6' 2'' and 143 lbs. when I got to high school. A type-one (insulin-dependent) diabetic at age 18. Diagnosed Bipolar with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome and panic attacks, unable to sleep in 2002. Sex and love addict since age 12. First poem: "Let's Get Drunk Together." Unable to stop acting-out in my addictions even after 3 inpatient treatment-centers lasting a year and a half--and a care-home, I returned home to get my papers out of storage. I came upon a brochure for Project NatureConnect I had gotten at our local Ecology Park. I ordered our RECONNECTING WITH NATURE text and HOW NATURE WORKS. I noticed a very high addiction recovery rate for severely at-risk students who'd taken the first online course. Unheard of. Took the "Orientation Course." Obtained the longest sobriety ever. Developed the best blood sugars of any of my doctor's patients: Averaging 130. Reduced my anti-psychotic, sleeping-disorder, panic attack medication from 600 mg./night to 50 mg./night. No longer required my Lamictol Bipolar medication.. Currently getting the most positive reactions of ANY of the artists in city-wide Art Extravaganzas. Beyond all my wildest dreams are coming true." For example: "The high school students in this study could not handle regular school programs. They were 180% below the poverty level, drug or alcohol addicted, physically or sexually abused and suffered poor self-esteem and behavioral disorders. Some were homeless or in correctional settings. The results of teaching them to use Organic Psychology were overwhelmingly positive with respect to abuse and disorders. In addition to the improved test scores for recovery from depression, stress, sleep disorder and low self-esteem, a every student's attendance and academic progress improved while they used Organic Psychology. No indications of chemical remission were observed 60 days after the program ended. As part of the program, the students restored the wild integrity of a two-acre trashed natural area near their school. They wrote: "This wilderness community is being choked by alien plants and stressed by pollution, abandonment and major loss. We, too, are being choked by drugs and alien stories that pollute our natural self. We feel abandoned by our society, treated like garbage, and cut off from nature which fills us with grief. By protecting and nurturing this ecosystem we find the strength to open our minds, hearts, and souls for the survival of our Mother Earth and ourselves." No matter their age or level of health and wellness, most online Organic Psychology course members report similar growth and recovery in their personal or professional lives. (http://www.ecopsych.com/survey.html) A great challenge faces us. Globally, locally and personally, we can't enjoy well being if our natural systems are not well. For this reason, I urge you to use, and alert those you work with, to the availability of Organic Psychology. It is an effective, nature-connected form of learning and therapy that helps us renew natural systems within and about us. Via the Internet, one hundred million people can learn and teach it every year. You may easily make a great contribution simply by educating folks about SaneEarth.com and the documentation located there. Additional online information, partnerships, income opportunities and training books, courses, jobs and degrees are available upon request at 360-378-6313, nature@interisland.net and http://www.ecopsych.com/ I hope you will assist us in helping people use and teach this important tool and I thank your good sense for considering it. For Peace, Michael J. Cohen Act now. Master Organic Psychology by doing it. Explore it from our homepage   A SHORT ANNOUNCEMENT YOU MAY USE: Organics are powerful and important because they work with nature, rather than against it. At http://www.SaneEarth.com an organic form of psychology helps us improve the well being our personal and professional life. Organic Psychology enables us to help natural systems, within and about us, recover from our neglect of them. As the grace, balance and restorative powers of these systems strengthen their flow through our psyche, our strengthened thoughts and feelings increase our ability to promote personal, social and environmental health.   FURTHER INFORMATION: WEB SITE SYNOPSIS: Life naturally sustains its optimums of wellness, diversity and purity because natural systems are self-correcting. As these systems flow through every molecule in nature they recycle wastes, heal disorders, improve health and support growth. When we stop making conscious sensory contact with natural systems within and about us, we stop the corrective flow of these systems in the life of our psyche. This stagnates our thinking and feeling. It produces mental aberrations that deteriorate personal, social and environmental well-being. Organic Psychology provides sensory tools that help us restore the flow of natural systems in our mentality. It gives us the ability to correct our aberrations and their destructive effects. - The Web of Life Imperative   An Organic Psychology Report from a Course Participant Today I have found a special spot, among all the people here in Japan, apart from my neighbors; it will be a treasured place. I discovered wooden steps below my condo unit and I took them...down and winding into a gorgeous, thick area of vegetation--hidden and lovely. I found a bench, sat, asked permission to be a part of this seemingly underappreciated and untouched spot, and enjoyed the moment. I closed my eyes and felt a strong breeze wash over me, and listened to the various plants rustle in the wind. I never feel alone when I'm with nature...and here, with people (somewhere) all around, there was nothing except union with this moment, this hidden beauty. I opened my eyes and saw a black butterfly--I have never seen a black butterfly. It didn't move for a very long time--it was quite large and stunning. I felt that the butterfly came to keep me company--the silent friend I needed. And then I thought of the metaphor of the butterfly emerging from the cocoon--and wondered how many times I have emerged from protective, small places. As always, after having reflective time with nature, I returned home with profound peace and contentedness. I was grateful to be alone, to find a special place, and to share time with the butterfly. The old brain/new brain discussion is such an important one. I believe, from observing my students over the years, that the old brain is shut down, limited, disconnected from any kind of organic, authentic nature relationship. There are a few now and then who exude their love for the outdoors and write about it--and they have a different perspective altogether about most things. People appreciate the aesthetics of nature at a distance, but there are few who experience total immersion. Whenever I have taken classes outside, there is joy and energy and unexpected elation...and they don't want to go back inside. The best writing has come from going outside--even on very cold days. The best bonding and understanding of each other has come from being outside--the greatest lessons learned. I remember one year taking students to Rocky Mtn National Park...one boy threw a rock and hit a chipmunk and killed it--and I had said over and over again about not disturbing wildlife, respecting, and so on. The reaction from the rest of the students was powerful--they were extremely angry and he was ostracized. At the end of the hike he came to me quietly and apologized, saying that he had always watched his father kill things--but he, himself, didn't really enjoy it...he learned a lesson about himself--as did the other students--as did I. Repeatedly, nature provides a mirror. The "nature-disconnected authority" concept is a difficult one to digest. On personal levels we've all experienced it, but right now our earth is feeling its full assault. Our government is the authoritarian parent and corporate profit is responsible for so much environmental ruin--like a landslide. The "disconnected process" is disastrous. Also, the discussion of our innate union with nature at birth is seen in children and infants--their attraction to leaves and rocks and shells, grass, trees. And then the authorities come along...and the child is told to not get dirty, stay inside, not to touch, and so on. The "adversarial" relationship has begun--the wall that separates us from true unity Learn the how and why of Organic Psychology Contact us at 360-378-6313 mailto:nature@interisland.net, http://www.ecopsych.com                                     INSTITUTE OF GLOBAL EDUCATION Special NGO consultant United Nations Economic and Social Council PROJECT NATURECONNECT Accredited environmental nature career holistic education and job courses, organic learning degrees and alternatives; earn extra income money and increase wellness, spirit and hope.

Alarm! Alarm! Well-being at risk Help turn the tide! www.SaneEarth.com                           "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 95 percent of the wise sensory callings and fulfillments we normally receive from natural systems and their eons of experience. Our hurt and frustration from the severed disconnection of these senses underlies our greatest troubles. -Michael J.
