Introduction
When I was a child living in
New York City, as I returned home from school one day, some bullies
in the schoolyard roughed me up saying, "Kike!* You jewboy, you killed Christ." In tears,
as I continued home I was drawn to an alternative path through
a wooded park by the railroad. Things were peaceful in that little
grove and by the time I emerged from it, I felt much better.
Next day, when I asked my teacher
why the park made me feel better, she said it was, "Because
it took you away from your problems." But, significantly, like most other people I
have ever known, my teacher never told me just what it was that
little natural area took me to. This is because
most of us don't know what or where "to" is. In our
nature-separated society that important piece of information
has been omitted from our awareness, socialization and education.
What we seldom learn about
parks and other natural areas is that visiting them is more than
just an escape from reality. Our indoor society leaves us unaware
that natural areas also revive us because they survive through
a natural life-relationship process that is more inclusive, supportive
and unifying than the way we ordinarily learn to think and act.
Since we are part of nature,
in an attractive natural setting we connect with and benefit
from nurturance from our sensory origins in the regenerative,
non-polluting way nature works. Often this happens subconsciously,
but the important thing is that it happens. It's the other reason
we feel better in a natural area. It's what we go "to."
Nature is a balanced civilization,
wisdom and consciousness, a supportive part of our life that
our indoor thinking has lost contact with. We miss it. We become
better off when we genuinely reconnect with it. That's the rest
of the story.
"Nature is doing her best
each moment to make us well."
- HenryDavid Thoreau.
The elements of nature make
us feel good and revive us in attractive natural areas because
nature's air, water, soil, sunlight, species, community, beauty,
grace and restorative powers are nurturing energies and essences
of our physical, emotional and spiritual self. In nature, the
vibrance of these natural systems brings into our mind and heart
their recuperative ways and intelligences within and around us.
This helps us enjoy and think with the means nature uses to produce
its optimums of life, diversity, cooperation, purification and
regeneration.
Nature is able to produce these
optimums without producing garbage or our insanity because in
unadulterated nature everything belongs. Nothing is left out.
No 'kikes' there, things are neither labeled nor abandoned. Transformation,
not rejection is how nature works. That's a way to describe unconditional
love.
That's also how and why nature
supports us when we visit attractive natural areas. It makes
us more whole while we are there because we connect with the
whole of life on Earth, not just people.
We unnecessarily suffer many
troubles because our society not only prides itself on its conquest
of nature but our socialization/education teaches us this false
prejudice: "For survival we must dominate and subdue nature."
We learn to exploit rather than cooperate with and embrace nature's
ways around and within us. That social prejudice explains why
openly enjoying or revering natural systems, including our natural
senses often earns us the name of "flaky, tree hugging,
hippy environmentalist."
"From the masses to the
'masses,'
The most Revolutionary consciousness is to be found,
Among the most ruthlessly exploited classes:
Animals, trees, water, air, grasses."
- Gary Snyder
As I worked my way through
elementary school I watched that little woodland park by the
railroad disappear. Progress "improved" it by converting
it into a shopping center and apartment house. What I didn't
see was that my natural way of thinking and feeling was part
of nature and that it was being similarly converted during this
period. I unknowingly learned to overlook that I was being programmed
to a way of thinking that destroyed natural systems because conquering
nature is 'normal' and applauded in our civilization. However,
our normal way of thinking is not organic. We take measures to
reward it to help us overcome our sadness over our loss of nature
in our psyche and lives. Nature-disconnected thinking becomes
the "in" thing to do to improve ourselves and the world.
"Beware of all enterprises
that require
new clothes."
- Henry David Thoreau
.
Are you aware that our
society teaches us to spend, on average, over 99 percent of our
thinking and 95 percent of our time indoors, separated from authentic
nature's balanced ways and guiding signals? This closeting from
nature results in us losing consciousness of ourselves and the
natural world as intercommunicating, seamless natural systems.
The separation stressfully rips our thinking from nature's recuperative
and aesthetic benefits while we are at home, work and school.
We learn, instead, to destructively relate to nature as a 'resource'
and many prodding financial and social rewards psychologically
addict us to keep doing this. We feel we can't stop, even when
we can see detrimental things happening to natural systems within
and about us, even when know we should, even when we want to
because we know it's stupid not to.
The destructive disconnection
of our mind from nature's balanced ways underlies many disorders
and discontents yet we are conditioned to crave, rather than
correct, this separation. As we purchase things that help us
overcome the discomfort produced by our disconnection from nature,
we fuel our economy and we obtain the shallow happiness of status,
false security and new technologies. To our loss, a vast majority
of us do not recognize that our nature-disconnection is the source
of our dilemmas so, shortcircuited, we remain disconnected, we
think those who do connect are eccentric, and the world increasingly
goes around in crazy untrustable circles.
"The definition of insanity
is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different
results. "
- Benjamin Franklin
Accompanied by others at Project
NatureConnect, and earlier the National Audubon Society Expedition
Institute, since 1952, I have focused a major part of my life
researching and developing an organic sensory science, a Natural
Systems Thinking Process (NSTP) that enables us to genuinely
reconnect our mind with how nature works in natural areas as
well as in people.
NSTP helps us tap our thinking
into authentic nature and its natural systems. We thereby tenfold
strengthen nature's balance and healing powers in ourselves,
others and the environment.
The Organic Psychology of NSTP
enables us to let nature's restorative energies help us deal
with our addictive dysfunctions and our emotionally satisfying
bonds to detrimental ways of thinking and acting.
Today, funds developed by NSTP
economics make it possible for anybody who appreciates nature
to learn and teach NSTP and enjoy its organic benefits to themselves,
to others and the to environment. And today, the value of teaching
this science is increasingly recognized through many universities,
most recently West Coast University in the Republic of Panama,
accredited by ICDE, the global accrediting agency recognized
by UNESCO & UNO.
Maybe there is hope. After
all, 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.
All we need to do is trust
our good experiences in nature and learn to use a NSTP tool that
helps us strengthen them.
Isn't now the time to produce
and enjoy the organic rewards of greater personal, professional
and environmental sanity rather than continue to suffer our dysfunctions
and discontents?

*Leo Rosten says, "The word
kike was born on Ellis Island, when Jewish immigrants who
were illiterate (or could not use Roman-English letters), when
asked to sign the entry-forms with the customary 'X,' refused
-- and instead made a circle. For the Jewish immigrants, an 'X'
was an evil sign, representing both the horrors of crucifixion
and the sign of their (Christian) oppressors. The Yiddish word
for 'circle' is kikel (pronounced KY - kel), and
for 'little circle,' kikeleh. Before long the immigration
inspectors were calling anyone who signed with an 'O' instead
of an 'X' a kikel or kikeleh or kikee or,
finally and succinctly, kike."

PRESS RELEASE:
Free Grants, Scholarships and Loans for
Alternative Graduate, College or Individual Training Help Educators
and Counselors Improve Personal and Environmental Sanity
Friday Harbor, WA 2/5/05
In a timely and passionate
alternative learning article entitled How You Can Come to
Your Senses: What They Don't Teach You at Harvard or Yale
(1), Ecological Psychologist Michael J. Cohen, Ed.D, (2), describes
holistic graduate and college scholarship grants now available
for restoring personal and global balance. The program funds
the application of a personal and environmentally rewarding nature-connecting
Organic Psychology tool called the Natural Systems Thinking
Process (NSTP).
NSTP is an easily learned,
on-line organic psychology (6) that is guaranteed to help us
overcome troubles and dysfunctions by revitalizing more than
fifty natural senses that our indoor lives ordinarily subdue
(3). It teaches us how to save our sanity and health and reduce
budgets by genuinely tapping our senses and thinking into the
balance, grace and regenerative powers of authentic nature.
Individual training scholarship
grants help NSTP takes us on extraordinary treks through the
nature of our mind and of Earth, offering astonishing revelations
about how to overcome the estrangement of our mentality from
nature's balancing recuperative influence. The cutting edge nature-connecting
tool Cohen describes enables us to think and relate like nature's
peace, cooperation and renewal energies work (4). The tool and
financial aid program (5) help us increase our security by binding
our mind with the way nature provides love, joy and well being
for people and ecosystems.

The Nature Of Nine Leg Knowing. How Do
We Belong and Heal?
|
"Ishi, (the last hunter-gather
Native American) was sure he knew the cause of our discontent.
It stemmed from an excessive amount of indoor time. 'It is not
a man's nature to be too much indoors.'"
- Theodora Kroeber
"It is quite clear to
me after several years in the environmental movement that all
physical problems of man's impact on the environment - pollution
of the air and waters, the desecration of the land, the contamination
of the food chain - all start within the environment of man's
mind."
- Maurice Strong,
Founder or the United Nations Environment Program,
Co--chair of the Commission on Global Governance,
|
Because we live in a nature-separated
society, we seldom learn that it is the personal and collective
relationship of our mind with nature that determines our sanity,
our future and the future of the earth. Much has been written
about how we need to help the planet regenerate itself. Too often
we overlook that restoring it is the lasting means to improve
the environment of our mind, our wellness and our destiny.
How conscious are we about
the interactions of our mentality with the natural world? How
do we passionately incorporate nature's intrinsic health and
recuperative powers into our sense of self, other and livelihood?
Do we acknowledge this deep and penetrating partnership in a
renewable path to sustainability that serves people, the environment
and peace?
These are compelling questions
for us as our society is in denial of our mentality's relationship
with nature and we face a most precarious future.
We Lose What We Most Love
As nature's resources are diminished so is the quality of our
lives as part of nature. As the quality of our lives diminish,
we become desensitized and fearful. We further lose touch with
our natural ability to connect to the web of life within which
we are so intricately bound. It becomes a cycle of loss. The
nurturing link between our human lives and our earthly home gets
broken. We are driven to seek more and more satisfaction in the
material world, which means we consume more and more of the resources
we need to sustain natural world and our inborn love of it. We
get further and further away from our innate sense of meaning
and being. We lose what we most love-about ourselves, the world
to which we belong and our sense of the sacred in everyday life.
Nature's Saving Grace
In these difficult times, we are virtually on the edge of losing
our ability to save both ourselves-and our earthly home. Yet
the saving grace is simple: We will save what we love. And when
we learn how to stop long enough to genuinely reconnect to the
nurturing sustenance of nature, we emotionally reconnect to what
is most deeply satisfying in our human experience-belonging.
We re-learn to love the very essence of who we are as living
breathing perfect beings on a living breathing perfect planet.
It is a generative partnership that happens when we reawaken
and enliven all our senses with the awareness of nature's grace,
intelligence and sustenance. We find and feel that we, too, are
part of the very grace and intelligence we celebrate in nature.
We belong. Because this reconnecting process is often foreign
to contemporary life, an enabling tool has been devised to help
us engage in the process.
Restoring Our Sensory Connections
To Nature's Renewing Powers.
Project NatureConnect, a pioneering process in environmental
psychology and education, has developed an ecopsychology program
that is first of all committed to helping us-as individuals-restore
our connection to our place in nature's transcending grace. Then,
through its sensory nature-connecting, ecotherapy activities,
we learn how to genuinely unite our thinking to the web of life
that is always around us, always nurturing us, always waiting
to help us wake up. We help ourselves bond to living in awareness
and equilibrium with nature, in hope and in love. Living in that
organic awareness we create a lasting future for our loved ones
and for our extended human and ecological family.
The Organic Science of Nature's
Regenerative Ways.
Backyard or back country, the idea and goal of Project NatureConnect
is special because it is doable by choice. It offers a web of
possibilities-for everything from personal growth, stress management
and depression recovery to professional gain. It is based on
the NatureConnect work developed by Michael J. Cohen over a span
of 50 years of studying, teaching, writing about and experiencing
the regenerative power of our natural experience in the natural
world. His work is a science and an art, the result of decades
of practice working with communities of people in natural areas,
all culminating in a process that helps us recover what it is
we have forgotten, what it is we love, what it is we can save.
(www.ecopsych.com)
Healing Our Relationships
It is time for us to come out from behind the addictive socializing
and economic forces that keep theenvironment of our mind disconnected
from the Earth and each other. It is time to re-learn how to
let the wisdom and renewing energies of nature transform our
destructive patterns into balanced and loving relationships that
can help restore both personal worth and global harmony.

Mood Disorders: Are You Suffering from
Denial of Your Separation from Nature?
|
Excessive separation
from nature produces the discomforts of fatigue, apathy, stress,
anxiety, depression, hopelessness, anger, mood swings, mistrust,
loneliness, broken relationships, destructive dependencies and
sleep, eating, learning and attention disorders |
1. Contemporary society
and its citizens are in denial. We are aware that we are part
of nature and that although we are disconnected from nature,
we deny that this separation bears ill effects upon our physical
or mental health and inner peace. We are also in denial if we
know our separation from nature is producing destructive personal,
social and environmental disorders but we don't use readily available
nature-reconnecting tools to help us treat these disorders.
2. Because we are members of
a nature-disconnected society in denial, we are psychologically
bonded to our society's ways and we each suffer from and perpetuate
the dysfunctions, insanity and discontents of our society.
3. Many people display mood
disorder symptoms or other discontents that are not normally
found in nature-connected people. These individuals are usually
in denial that they suffer because they are, or have been, excessively
separated from nature and its regenerative healing and restorative
powers. The symptoms these individuals endure include the discomforts
of fatigue, apathy, stress, anxiety, depression, hopelessness,
anger, mood swings, mistrust, loneliness, broken relationships,
destructive dependencies and sleep, eating, learning and attention
disorders.
4. Contemporary society consciously
and subconsciously socializes us to believe that nature is an
enemy to overcome, conquer or develop.
|
- We are in denial
that we mistakenly consider it progress and economically sound
to subdue natural systems within and around us and thereby lose
the resilience and immunity provided by the recuperative powers
of these systems.
- We deny that if disconnection from nature produces discontents,
that authentic reconnecting with nature enables nature's renewing
powers to help us transform our discontents into happier, more
reasonable, ways of being and relating.
- We deny that nature-reconnecting tools are readily available
to us and that we that can use them to help ourselves reverse
our disorders. |
.
5. An individual that only addresses their personal dysfunctions
without addressing the nature-disconnected roots of these dysfunctions
too often furthers their and our problems as time passes.

Open Articles and Letters
Nature's Grace: A Nine-Leg
Equation Provides an Answer to Hopes, Prayers and Dreams.
Dear Editor
The lack of finding inner peace,
sustainable economics, trust, social justice and personal and
environmental wellness had alarmed me. I sought and finally found
a tool that transformed my depressing stress and anxiety into
responsible stability. I thought I was stressed because the more
I became aware of the destructive things happening to Earth and
to people and places I loved, including myself, the greater became
my lack of hope and feeling either mad, sad or depression. This
divorced me from both my spirit and partner. I felt anger with
God and beauty, a fear and disrespect of God for letting so much
war, suffering and environmental deterioration occur that I was
powerless to change. In time, I became aware that I was in denial.
I denied that I, like many others, had an addiction to immediate
rewards from my dysfunctions. They robbed me of the resilience
to tolerate what I could not change. In fear, I came upon the
description, on this page, of an amazing equation that combines
the genius of Albert Einstein and Henry David Thoreau. Lost in
depression, I only paid attention to it because it received super
positive reviews from many conferences, spiritualities and publications
that I respected, especially Psychology Today, Humanistic Psychology
and the Journal of Environmental Education. In retrospect, it
was a love answer from nature's grace and beauty to my hopes,
prayers and dreams.
Mr. Editor, Does writing about
this make sense to you? Isn't it something your readers can benefit
from?

.The Equation
for Personal Growth and Self-Improvement
A Sensory Education and Counseling
Tool Strengthens Holistic Health, Inner Peace and Sustainability
Although we are part of nature,
we are normally educated to spend, on average, over 95 percent
of our time and 99 percent of our lives thinking and feeling
while separated from nature's grace, beauty, and restorative
powers. Our mentality's profound loss of nature divorces us into
apathy through denial. We deny that we are rewarded for fearing
and exploiting, rather than embracing, the supportive ways of
our planetary mother and her kingdoms. We deny that we are psychologically
addicted to nature-disconnected thinking that creates our personal,
social and environmental dysfunctions.
Contemporary society has taught
us to be experts in conquering nature, including the balanced
ways of our natural self and its love of nature. The result:
because we don't protect what we don't love, nature, our collective
sustainability and our personal wellness suffer. To stop this
insanity the Einstein-Thoreau Equation makes readily available
the means to genuinely connect our thinking and feeling to Mother
Nature's recuperative powers, perfection and love of us as her
children. Using the Internet as a learning tool, we tap our psyche
into nature's beautiful sane and balanced web of life that produces
an optimum of diversity and benefits without producing garbage,
a web some people call God (www.ecopsych.com).
Through easily learned, nature-connected
Organic Psychology methods and materials, the Internet makes
it possible for any individual, or 600 million people, to think
in ways that invigorate resiliency and spirit and that reduce
our addictive trespasses, denial and apathy. By genuinely reconnecting
our thinking to natural systems we restore and trust more than
forty-five natural senses that have been numbed out of our consciousness
by our extreme disconnection from nature. The self-improvement
renewal of these senses increases our sensitivity, sensibility
and love energies. This ecopsychology helps unbalanced parts
of our minds and hearts benefit from nature's ability to rejuvenate
and balance itself, including us, for we are part of nature.
We reduce our stress, depression and abusiveness. We transform
our apathy into constructive participation. Backyard to back
country,-we strengthen our life, our organizations and global
society.

An Equation Helps Us Meet Our Great Challenge
"Our body, mind, spirit
and ability to love come into the world through nature. They
are part of nature's beautiful perfection, wisdom and restorative
powers. However, the extreme disconnection of our thinking from
nature injures these attributes. Like tearing a leg from a live
rabbit, we wound and damage our ability to think clearly. Its
dysfunction deteriorates our wellness, our inner peace and the
environment.
Our bonding and denial present
us with great challenges. To replace our lost gratifications
from nature, our socialization rewards our disturbed psyche to
attach or addict to contemporary ways along with their destructive
side effects. Our greatest challenge is that we learn to deny
that the self-improvement means is available to reconnect our
thinking with nature's regenerative powers and thereby co-create
ourselves and the world in a peaceful balance that eliminates
these side effects."
- Michael J. Cohen
"I find that being stupid
makes me really feel left out and different all the time. I just
can't register all the wonderful things that technology and the
media provide for the normal person. For example, I'm so retarded
that I couldn't even understand that E.T. was an extraterrestrial
like Spielberg and the movie and the stories said. To me, the
powers E.T. had were the same as those of Earth, he was just
like the plant animal and mineral community. Llike them, he was
very vulnerable to technology. But I'm so dumb that I thought
then, and I still think today, that E.T. was a terrestrial; he
was Planet Earth. He was in no way so special as to become a
movie star. After all, doesn't Earth all the time do what he
did if we let it? Nine leg thinking lets us do that, too.
- Alfred E. Newman.
QUESTION: What is so important
about nine-leg thinking?
ANSWER: Nine-leg thinking is
a supportive, therapeutic key to creating personal happiness
through a rewarding and sustainable future for all people and
the planet.
To understand the momentous
significance of nine-leg thinking, consider this intelligence
test question regarding mathematical aptitude:
"If you count a normal
dog's tail as one of its legs, how many legs does a dog have?"
"Five," of course,
is the correct answer.
Intelligent people answer "five"
because it is valid in mathematical and scientific reasoning.
Society applauds and economically rewards us for giving correct
mathematical or technological answers. But something is radically
wrong with this answer; something is missing. Because, somehow,
even a dog knows that a dog has four legs.
Our sense of reason recognizes
five as correct only until we are greeted by our friendly family
dog, or the mean mutt down the street. Five legs only works in
theory. When we experience a real dog, or a wolf, or a centipede,
or any other natural being, many of our inherent natural senses
come into play: our senses of sight, touch, motion, color, texture,
language, sound, smell, fear, consciousness, community, trust,
contrast, love, reason and recognition. Are you aware we have
53 natural senses?
No matter how conceptually
clever we are with our five-legged thinking, it is our four-legged
sensory awareness that grounds our experience in the true nature
of reality. That reality knows any normal dog has no more than
four legs and no matter how you look at it, a tail is not one
of them.
When it comes to supportively
relating in balance to nature and its systems around and within
us, we rarely think in 9-leg (4-leg plus 5-leg) ways.
We can kill or hurtfully stress a dog if we make it run too fast
or too far because we think that it has five legs. Isn't that
what we are doing to ourselves and the environment?
Nine-leg thinking and relating
helps us come back into personal and environmental balance by
revitalizing our multitude of natural senses through genuine
contact with authentic nature.
