NATURE CONNECTED SELF-IMPROVEMENT
.
A LETTER THAT ENCAPSULATES
THE PROCESS AND PROGRAM
Have you read the following letter from Linda, a participant in the Project NatureConnect program? If not, please do so. You will find it helpful in understanding the benefits and vision that this nature centered self-improvement process offers you.
Dear Visitor,
Thank you for your desire to obtain information about our nature-centered personal growth program. The program supports your ability to improve the quality of your life and all of life.
You have probably noticed that even a walk in the park or time with your pet or garden makes you feel better. Now, there is a thoughtful nature reconnecting process on the WEB that helps people strengthen their sensory contact with nature. It intensifies nature's healing effects and people thoroughly enjoy it.
The nature reconnecting process nurtures our spiritual feelings and our caring for natural areas and each other. Through the internet, internationally, many of us now derive income while we actively support each other and help protect the environment. Sometimes we get together in person.
Exploring the nature reconnecting process made sense to me. I tried it and, as part of the process, I helped others do it, too. The results were spectacular for all of us and the environment. While my anxiety problems and apathy subsided, I watched and helped people of all ages dissolve eating and learning disorders, headache pain, stress, interpersonal relationship problems, depression, chemical dependencies, suicide and poor self-esteem. All this by email, mind you. We weren't lonely, we were community in a balance and that siphoned off the stress and conflict that aggravated our integrity.
I discovered that the reason this special nature reconnecting process works is because, as you probably know, our unsolvable problems do not exist in nature. No garbage there, no runaway crime, violence, drugs, war, mental illness or loneliness either. Instead, all is in an attraction equilibrium . We learn to safely reconnect our senses with their home in nature' wisdom and the results speak for themselves. I invite you to examine them and ask questions about them that you might have.
By learning how to let nature nurture and restore our inner nature, (our "inner child" "soul" or "spirit") we strengthen our natural ability to build supportive relationships and problems dissolve. We build strong community and greater resiliancy. Doing this is fun, profound and teachable.
The program can be learned for less than $35 initially. In fact, there is a book, Reconnecting With Nature by M. J. Cohen (Ecopress), that you can use in conjunction with the program's discussion group on the internet.
I know this may sound strange but here's what I found: when you genuinely connect with nature, nature brings its wisdom, balance and healing ways into your consciousness so that you can critically think and act with them.You begin to see, feel and react to things in relationship to their effects. That's when life begins to make more sense.
Our society is so disconnected from nature most people fear nature. They are also afraid others will think they are fools or sinners for doing this kind of "ecopsychology" reconnecting. However, the nature reconnecting process is perfect for those of us who enjoy nature, who don't harbor those fears or want to outgrow them.
Check out the results of the reconnecting process, that I previously mentioned. They are real, they come directly from this program during past four years.
What you can do: Get involved with learning, teaching and distributing hands-on activities and books, email courses, workshops and distance learning degree programs. They are reasons for hope. You can belong to something worthwhile and find personal fulfillment by participating. Just fill out the application for the orientation course by e-mail.

Too often we suffer and feel helpless because the deterioration of humanity and the environment hurts us and we are unaware of its cause.
Research demonstrates that the stress arising from our extreme sensory separation from our nurturing origins in Nature underlies most of our unsolvable personal, social, and global problems.In a democracy, to reach our hopes and dreams the knowledge we discover must be accompanied by a readily available educational process that motivates and enables the public to apply the knowledge.
With respect to our destructive disconnection from nature, the web page links, below, empower you to use and teach an effective rehabilitating process that will help you improve most settings and relationships.
