Abstract
The 1986 Bureau of Applied Sciences International Symposium on the Promotion of Unconventional Ideas in Science, Medicine and Sociology in England identified Dr. Michael J. Cohen as a maverick genius because a genius is “One who shoots at something no one else can see, and hits it.” Cohen’s eco-genius is considered “maverick” because its GreenWave actualizes natural, sensory, Web of Life truths that our society omits. They are inconvenient yet vital for personal, social and global well-being. Project NatureConnect awards organic online degrees and certifications for applying them.
I recently followed up what appeared to be an unbelievable 2016 quote on the Internet from Michael J. Cohen, Ph.D., the Founder and Director of Project NatureConnect:
“Eighty years ago, when I was six, my school psycho-emotionally amputated my left arm. I hurt and I complained about it for years until some reasonable folks let me use a “taboo” technology. It was a fountain pen. It enabled me to naturally write with my left hand without being punished for disobeying the dip-pen school rules of 1936.
That fountain pen restored my natural peace of mind. It improved my penmanship and my happiness. This felt so good that I always tried to develop and use similar tools. It became my habitual “maverick eco-genius,” a permanent felt-sense intention to scientifically dignify the life of Nature in and around me rather than bully it.
Today, my GreenWave art and science of how to come into balance enables the whole of life to strengthen its and our natural integrity. With practice, the organics of the GreenWave Web of Life process happily connect our 54 inherent natural senses with the power and peace of Earth’s self-correcting sanity. This produces long-term personal, social and global solutions and well being that most folks are rewarded to ignore.”
– Michael Cohen
This experience fascinated me due to my direct contact with it. I, too, was scorned for being left-handed. I have spent most of my adult life in a sort of “lost” phase within that initial injury, yet somewhere I sensed a maverick within me, I sensed I had natural creative genius within, and coming upon Mike’s experience and his life work validated it all.
Contemporary humans usually have a subdued genius within them due to the conditioned stories of modern society that have buried it their minds. Mike discovered this truth, and embraced his maverick within by follow his natural attractions. I never thought that a whole life art or science story (34) was available that explains how or why you could visit a natural area and increase mental health, stress relief, learning ability, conflict resolution and personal, social and environmental well-being.
Most thinkers and leaders expound on what should be done about our runaway troubles in these areas. However, their material science and mechanistic thinking does not identify the psychiatric nature and origin of these disorders no less offer the tool that enables us to remedy it. For this reason, today, these problems persist and are growing (20).
“Genius is the capacity for productive reaction against one’s training.”
– Bernard Berenson
Mike Cohen’s genius is real and exceptional (31). In 1965 after years of making sensory contact with a wide range of natural areas in expedition education groups that he organized (32) he recognized that Planet Earth had to be a living organism (26) whose core consisted of attraction communication and relationships (35). It did not speak via language while he personally was an organism that did yet he was also part of Organism Earth. He lived in it, it had to be his “other body” (24). From this discovery his natural felt-sense thinking identified our ordinarily overlooked 54 natural senses (29) attachments to inaccurate stories (34) being the cause of personal, social and environmental disorders. He created unique nature-connecting stories and activities along with a relationship-based Unified Field Equation (21) as remedies for their source. These are described in his warranty of his work (19) and his GreenWave Unified Field Equation (21). He made the organic genius of his Whole-Life Art and Science of Educating, Counseling and Healing with Nature (ECHN) doable and readily available (22).
Genius: “Those individuals that rise to the particular challenges of emerging in a civilization when it is in some way endangered and who make a response to ensure the continuity of the civilization.”
– Arnold Toynbee
Throughout his adult life, Cohen (11) has devoted his “maverick” eco-genius to bring into consciousness, identify and think with 54 energy attraction strands of Albert Einstein’s Unified Field that our senses register and that bind relationships, sub-atomic to solar system, in and around us (29). He sensed that these energies must be Webstrings, attraction strands that hold together the Web of Life, including us.
While all species and minerals enjoy webstrings
and their vital benefits, contemporary thinking in its conquest of nature has been taught to ignore, conquer or separate them from the natural and attach them to destructive nature-disconnecting stories and relationships. This trend for excessive artificiality has led to the deterioration of natural systems in the environment and people (20)
Cohen shows that that we have to use our 54 unadulterated webstring attraction senses (29) to regenerate the purity of nature’s balance, beauty and peace around and within us (2). His work is an act of genius that enables anyone to use webstrings to help resolve “unsolvable” personal, social and environmental problems (1). It is amazing eco-psychiatry at no cost.
“When nature has work to be done, she creates a genius to do it.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
To our loss, Cohen is suspect because contemporary thinking neither believes in nor respects webstrings and their potential for good. Our history has been to destroy or inadequately substitute for webstring relationships under the flag of “stewardship” and “progress.” (3). For this reason, our 54 natural senses in their pure beneficial form remain foreign to most of us, even though they are self-evident and right before our eyes. It is similar to your consciousness registering the words you are now reading but not registering the value of the air that sits between your mind and this screen at this moment (until you are now reminded of it.)
.
“Learning to think and speak while connected to the Dance of the GreenWave Unified Field helps us communicate with the whole of life and its history as part of the attraction/love essence of our personal life in any moment. The Dance attaches us to all past and present leaders, deities, stories, senses, facts prophecies and relationships in the history and life of Planet Earth. While we lovingly dance as 54-sense equals with them in the present, we update them with our advanced science and technology prowess. In congress this enables our GreenWave dance, moment-by-moment, to unify, transform and produce responsible tomorrows in peaceful balance with the whole of life.”
– Michael J. Cohen
“It takes immense genius to represent, simply and sincerely, what we see in front of us.”
– Edmond Duranty
WEBSTRINGS DESCRIBED:
Environmental experts accurately portray webstrings, nature and the web-of-life by gathering a group of people in a circle. Each person is asked to represent some part of their attraction to nature, a bird, soil, water, etc.(2). A large ball of string then demonstrates the interconnecting attraction relationships between all things in nature. For example, the bird is attracted to eat insects so the string is passed from the “bird person” to the “insect person.” That string represents their attraction connection. The insect is attracted to live in a flower, so the string is further unrolled across the circle to the “flower person;” from the “electron” to the “proton.” Soon a web of attraction string is formed interconnecting all members of the group, from atoms to weather systems, including somebody representing a person. In this model each of the connecting strands is a webstring (4).
Every aspect of the global life community, from the space between sub-atomic particles to the moon, is part of the web of life. The diversity of natural system webstring 
interconnections in conjunction with their central Unified Field source produces nature’s homeostatic balance that prevents runaway disorders. For this reason, unadulterated natural systems neither create garbage nor display our mental health problems or our abusiveness, stress and isolation. Everything that is part of Nature, including people, is attractive, belongs and is supported in Nature.
In the web of life activity, dramatically, people pull back, sense, and enjoy how the strings of the web peacefully unite, support and interconnect them and all of life. Then one strand of the web is cut signifying the loss of a species, habitat or natural relationship due to our nature-disconnecting stories. Sadly, the weakening effect on all is noted. Another and another string is cut. Soon the web’s integrity, unifying ability and power disintegrates along with its spirit. Because this loss of support from the wholeness of the web of life reflects the reality of our nature-separated lives, it triggers feelings of hurt, despair and deep sadness in many activity participants. This is to be expected for, in reality, Earth and its people increasingly suffer from “cut string” disintegration (5).
In the webstring model, Dr. Cohen asks people if they ever went into a natural area and actually saw strings interconnecting things there. Usually their answer is something like, “No, if I saw them I’d be hallucinating or psychotic.” Cohen has responded, “If you don’t see strings there, what then are the actual strands of Nature that hold the natural community together in its perfection and beauty? To be part of a system things have to be in communication with it.”
It becomes very, very quiet.
Too quiet.
Are you quiet, too?
Pay close attention to this silence. It flags a vital but missing element in our thinking, perceptions and relationships whose loss results in many troubles (6).
“Genius . . . is the capacity to see ten things where the ordinary man sees one.”
– Ezra Pound
Natural beings sustain their own and nature’s wellness while in contact with the central attraction whole of the web through webstring loves. As part of nature, we are born with this ability that Psychiatrist Eric Fromm identified as Biophilia, the love of life. Our 54 natural senses are webstring loves of life in and as us. Our life loves to live.
Attraction is the essence of any form of love. Each natural attraction webstring is a special love of life that Dr. Theresa Sweeney at Project NatureConnect called a Weblove. Pulitzer-Prize winning sociobiologist Dr. Edward O. Wilson, of Harvard, affirms that nature’s web of life holds the key to our aesthetic, intellectual, cognitive, and even spiritual satisfaction (7). Albert Einstein conceived of the strings as energies of Nature’s grand unification field and noted that, “Scientific research is based on the idea that everything that takes place is determined by laws of nature, and therefore this holds for the action of people….Our task must be to free ourselves from (our) prison by widening our circles of compassion (webloves) to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty” (8).
Obviously, webstrings are part of survival (25), just as authentic and important as the plants, animals and minerals that they interconnect, including ourselves. These attraction strands of the Unified Field are as real and true as 2 + 2 = 4; they are self-evident sensory facts as genuine as the sensation of hunger as well as the existence of food. We ask for our troubles when we attach to stories that ignore or harm them.
“What makes men of genius, or rather, what they make, is not new ideas, it is that idea – possessing them – that what has been said has still not been said enough.”
– Eugene Delacroix
Cohen has demonstrated that as part of Nature we are born with the natural ability for our mentality to sense, register and respond to 54 webstring sensations that Nature’s ways have given us for survival. However, contemporary objective thinking learns to neither acknowledge nor
exercise this sensory ability, labeling it subjective and therefore scientifically taboo. Instead, we usually subdue it along with nature, as was the case with Cohen’s left handedness. Our troubles and discontents result from thinking and relationships based on our use of the combined intelligence of less than ten, rather than all 54 of our natural attraction webstring senses.
This is the nature of genius, to be able to grasp the knowable even when no one else recognizes that it is present.
– Deepak Chopra
On average, we spend over 95 percent of our lifetime disconnected from and out of tune with authentic nature.
Without seeing, sensing or respecting the 54 webloves in nature and our inner nature, we break, injure or ignore them so the love they provide in and around us no longer registers in our consciousness and thinking. Their disappearance produces an unnatural void and imbalance, a discomforting sensory emptiness, a hurt lack of love that we constantly try to fill. This emotional vacuum prevents us from registering and thinking with sensory attractions that otherwise help us as part of nature produce unpolluted balance, wellness and peace.
The absence of webloves in our mentality prevents the formation of many critical satisfying relationships. This results in depression and stress in us; we unnecessarily want, and when we want there is never enough. We become greedy, abusive and reckless while trying to artificially replace our missing 46 weblove fulfillments. This dysfunction places us, others and Earth at risk for with respect to the perfection of the web of life there are few known substitutes for nature’s weblove organics that do not produce destructive side effects in people and places (9).
Cohen’s quest to understand and utilize webloves has brought him, for the last 55 years, to live and teach with groups in natural areas year round. This led to his Grand Canyon discovery in 1965 that Planet Earth acted like, and could be related to, as a living organism, a fact substantiated twelve years later by James Lovelock in the Gaia Hypotheses (10). “Organism Earth” and “Organism Cohen” were identical except only Cohen and humanity could communicate and relate through language stories and we “addicted” to them, right or wrong. Acting out our fictional stories in the “Now” made us produce and suffer our troubles (34). Replacing them in the Now with scientifically valid, self-evident stories and experiences in natural areas was their remedy.
From this realization Cohen personally risked founding the Trailside Country School, the National Audubon Society Expedition Institute and Project NatureConnect’s Whole-Life Art and Science of Educating, Counseling and Healing with Nature (ECHN) that fueled his organic webstring expedition education programs, books, curricula, psychologies, therapies, courses, schools, institutions and processes (36). These include his Whole Life Factor, Organic Psychology, the Natural Systems Thinking Process, Natural Attraction Ecology, the Unified Field GreenWave Equation (21), Nature as Higher Power (23), and the 9-leg thinking model (30) that help us offset our addictive, nature-disconnected “story based” thinking (2, 16). Each of these tools is part of Cohen’s nature-reconnecting ECHN process that helps us build balanced relationships and wellness (33).
“Genius not only diagnoses the situation but supplies the answers.”
– Robert Graves
ECHN provides us with empirical evidence and genuine contact with webloves in natural areas that express themselves in us as 54 attraction intelligences (17, 11). Each self-evident sense gives us a unique means to make more sense, feel greater happiness and implement our deeper hopes and ideals (15). For example, the weblove sensation of thirst, our love for water, is as real, true and important a fact of life as is material water. Its purifying intelligence turns on and off the flow of the global water cycle through us as we need it. This makes it a sensory fact in whole life science that appropriately blends with and adds additional information to the mechanical/material fact of “water” so that the latter becomes valuable and balanced with all of life, not just our human “indoor” lifeways.
“The supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”
– Albert Einstein
Cohen’s maverick genius demonstrates that our excessive disconnection from nature is the crux of our troubles. It uproots our mind from nature’s purifying webstring balance around and within us. He says,
“Like a deer severed apart by the wheels of a train, our extreme separation from nature psychologically severs us from our mentality’s sensory connections and support in nature. This painful disconnection un-grounds us; it disconnects our thinking from vital inherent natural loves and ways of thinking, knowing and relating (25). This numbs our mentality to most of the sensory connections that produce nature’s perfection and recuperative powers in our body, mind and spirit.
Disconnected from webstrings inside and around us, our story from our short-circuited psyche says that our nature-separated lives are ‘normal’ and that we are stewards of the web of life; it is our garden of resources. This makes us deny our weblove dysfunctions rather than address them as such (27). Our disconnection is so severe that even though most of us have had wonderful restorative experiences in nature, our nature-disconnected stories have us think of them as recreation rather than re-creation. We shy from rather than welcome opportunities that enable us to increase and strengthen these experiences (23).
ECHN sensory reconnection activities help us reduce our troubles by enabling us, at will, to genuinely blend our thinking with authentic nature, backyard or back country, and use its recuperative powers to restore our sensibilities and wellness. This process for enhancing social and environmental justice (23) also strengthens our love of nature. This is vital because we don’t fight to preserve what we don’t love enough.”
In the 1985 Bureau of Applied Sciences International Symposium on the Promotion of Unconventional Ideas in Science, Medicine and Sociology, the so called “Maverick Genius Conference” in England identified Dr. Cohen as a maverick genius because a genius has been described as “One who shoots at something no one else can see, and hits it” (13). Dr. Bruce Denness, the conference convener, partially in jest suggested that Cohen, who still sleeps outdoors year round, might be the reincarnation of Henry David Thoreau as a Psychologist. Most elements in Cohen’s Warranty can be seen as acts of genius.
“Genius is the willingness and ability to challenge conventional wisdom. Perhaps even more importantly, scientific genius depends on an instinct for invention, an ability to focus on the problem at hand, and a determination to pursue that problem to a successful conclusion.”
– Author unknown
“We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.”
– Albert Einstein
If our society was dedicated to living in peace and balance with people and the environment, “genius” would accurately describe Dr. Cohen and his ECHN contribution ,
for which he received the 1994 Distinguished World Citizen Award (12, 14). However, in our nature-conquering society where corruption, profit, power and the exploitation of nature are too often heralded, Cohen’s webstring learning and relationship building ECHN goes against the grain. He is seen as a maverick, whose genius tries to scientifically teach the love of co-creating with nature to a “nature-conquering” society (2, 16).
Cohen says:
“With respect to the Web of Life, we are part of the whole. My natural area experiences tell me that whenever we are genuinely connected to a natural area our webloves automatically begin to self-correct and renew themselves and us because that’s attractive, that’s how Nature’s perfection works.
In our excessively nature-separated society, a person who succeeds in helping us sustain personal, social and environmental well being by genuinely reconnecting our discontent webloves with nature’s essence is an interruption to “indoor society” wellness and ignored. It feels so strange to watch our objective thinking produce our at-risk destiny because the nature-disconnected stories of our authorities, in and around us, call this catastrophe “economic growth” and omit its ECHN remedy (33).
I think that Lefty, my natural left handedness, is a hero. Since Lefty’s elementary school confrontation his genetics in me have sensed and reported that our misguided stories can’t remove our 54 Unified Field sensory loves from nature’s balance and beauty and not have us suffer the misery from that loss.
By living out my messages from Lefty, unknowingly I became a living, rather than a mechanical, sensory detector and reporter of Nature’s love, health and welfare. My nervous and endocrine system’s homeostasis served as a computerized electronic, chemical and sensory instrument. It made me aware of how non-story Nature works, when it was in trouble and how it could be supported by itself in me.
In retrospect, Lefty knew and kept me on the GreenWave before he helped me invent it.
Today most folks have yet to recognize that Organism Earth exists no less learn to use the GreenWave remedy for its/our troubles that Lefty still empowers me to create and warranty.
We seldom acknowledge that the life of our Planet experiences us as nature-conquering soldiers addicted to nature-conquering stories (34) and we unhappily endure the stress and depression from its disconnection from us as such. It feels like a gnawing abandonment that we must tranquilize, a lack of love. It results from our culturally learned weblove attachments to weblove-disconnecting stories that we can, but don’t reverse.
All things only exist in the present moment of our Universe, the Now of life that includes our stories, sensations and history. Learning to “think and speak on the GreenWave” enables us communicate with the whole of life and its history as part of each moment’s Unified Field attraction network of our Universe. The “Now” aliveness of the wave attaches to us all past leaders, deities, stories and relationships along with the ability to dance as equals with them and update them with our knowledge of the present. This unity empowers us to reasonably change and increase personal, social and environmental well-being.
Your 54-sense good experiences during a quiet time spent in a natural area confirm the value of GreenWave reconnecting with Nature (33). That knowledge is universal genius because, until proven otherwise, whatever our senses find attractive in nature is what is doing the finding. I hope you keep the process alive by keeping ECHN and the GreenWave in your life. Please let me know if I can help.”
“Everyone is born a genius, but the process of living de-geniuses them.”
– R. Buckminster Fuller
Dr. Cohen directs Project NatureConnect and GreenWave education on and from San Juan Island in Washington State. He enjoys visits and phone calls with folks in the program while they enjoy strengthening their maverick genius with him and ECHN in natural areas.

Domination by scientific and other objective information wounds 85 percent of a child’s 54 natural senses and reduces their resilience. This is because these senses are viewed as “subjective.” The alienating rejection of them produces our runaway psycho-emotional injuries and damages global biodiversity.
