    Extractions: June 26 - July 1, 1994 What is the most effective way to encourage healthy environmental behavior? Is our consumer culture a form of psychopathology? Has the city become the implacable enemy of nature? Can modern industrial societies recapture the ecological insights that lay buried in their indigenous past? What is the role of the churches and of pastoral counseling in the environmental crisis? Can environmental law protect the sacred in nature? What is the best way to introduce ecopsychology into the universities? These are some of the questions that came under discussion at Ecopsychology: Theory and Practice 1994, an invitational conference sponsored by the Ecopsychology Institute and held at Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California from June 26 to July 1, 1994. In the following pages we offer a brief summary of the main issues and insights that emerged at this event, where a group of environmental writers, activists, ministers, therapists, poets, media specialists, scholars and teachers met to explore how our individual and collective psyches interact with what David Abram called the "more-than-human world." This report may be more useful in raising questions rather than providing answers. But that is in the spirit of the gathering. Participants came with a commitment to using the unstructured, leaderless format of the meetings primarily as "invitations to dialogue."

    Extractions: RECOMMENDED READING INTRODUCTION Ecopsychology is developing rapidly as a field of study, and it has no single definition yet. The term is used in different ways by several different practitioners and researchers. My aim here is to summarize what I see as the main themes or contributions of Ecopsychology. By the way, when I say these are insights, I do not mean to imply that they are unique or original to Ecopsychology. Our ancestors who lived close to the Earth as well as indigenous people around the world today have a bead on these understandings. Among the origins of this field are the following: Theodore Roszak was one of the first to develop this term and write about it for a general audience. His books

    ecopsychology. Restoring the Earth, Healing the Mind. by Theodore Roszak,Mary E. Gomes, and Allen D. Kanner (editors). Praise for ecopsychology.  
    http://www.ecobooks.com/ecopsych.htm
    
    Extractions: What's New Catalog Order About Us 338 pages, paperback, Sierra Club, 1995, out-of-print The essays in Ecopsychology address the connections between the human mind and the natural world. "Ecopsychology provides a powerful new dimension to the environmental movement, suggesting that by living in greater harmony with the natural world we shall not only help to save our planet from ultimate destruction but shall also improve our mental health and be happier and more fulfilled human beings." Jane Goodall "It is a remarkable fact that, despite its significance for human welfare, the relation of the mind to the natural world has been largely ignored by science. The contributors to this volume scout the unmapped territory far ahead; I hope that many others will soon follow." Edward O. Wilson "A glad welcome to this affirmation by a group of psychologists that the self does not stop at the skin nor even with the circle of human relationships but is interwoven with the lives of trees and animals and soil; that caring for the deepest needs of persons and caring for our threatened planet are not in conflict." Mary Catherine Bateson "The scale on which both environmentalism and therapy are pursued diverges radically from political business as usual. Neither ecological nor psychotherapeutic problems can be fully solved, if at all, within the boundaries defended by the nation- state, the free-trade zone, the military alliance, or the multinational corporation The one transcends even the largest of these awkwardly improvised human structures; the other eludes their insensitive grasp. Perhaps this is in itself an ecological fact of the highest importance. We are living in a time when both the Earth and the human species seem to be crying out for a radical readjustment in the scale of our political thought."

    The ecopsychology Connection with Permaculture. By Myra McKenney withthanks to Louise Buck and Elan Shapiro. What Is ecopsychology?  
    http://www.talkingleaves.org/s03ecopsychology.htm
    
    Extractions: with thanks to Louise Buck and Elan Shapiro I n an age of overwhelming mistrust, insecurity, and inequality, humans are anxiously striving for a new way to live. People in industrialized countries have created a culture of fearful, ungrounded, disconnected, isolated human beings. Many individuals see these problems and desire a revolutionary social change in our "civilized" lifestyles. People from all realms of life are beginning to create ways to integrate a more relational and holistic worldview into their current lifestyles. Some people are learning how to change their lives by re-creating how they perceive the world and learning to practice sustainability in their everyday activities. In this article I will discuss why there is so much discontent in the US, relate it to my experience of living in an intentional community in the summer of 2002, and explore the links between the human psyche and the Earth psyche in the emerging field of ecopsychology and in the practices of permaculture. Together, these practices offer one approach to helping create a socially and ecologically sustainable culture and world. W hat do humans need? "Air, food, drink, shelter, warmth, clothing, affection, company, stimulating work, freedom from stress, health" (Bell, 37). I would add that humans also need feelings of connectedness, ways of expressing their unique creativity, and a sense of meaningful participation and contribution to something larger than themselves. Do people living and struggling in our current capitalistic society and consumerist culture have all of these basic human needs met? I think there are many people who are deprived of one thing or another. While I was living in the intentional community, Lost Valley Educational Center in Dexter, OR, and enrolled in a Naka-Ima (personal growth) workshop, a dear person shared this quote to help me trust in myself that one's environment truly is key to their well-being.

    http://www.schumachercollege.org.uk/articles/teachers-articles/ecopsychology.htm
    
    Extractions: An International Centre for Ecological Studies Ecopsychology by John Seed In spite of the modern delusion of alienation, of separation from the living Earth, we humans are not aliens, we belong here. The human psyche too is Earth-born, the result of 4000 million years of continuous evolution. The complex, dynamic biology from which psyche emerged necessarily remains the matrix, the grounding of any sane psychology. I take "ecopsychology" to mean psychology in service to the Earth. We have all heard about the massive assault on our life-support systems. Yet it has not changed our behaviour except in rather trivial ways. How will we change our thinking and our behaviour to bring our technologies and lifestyles into harmony with the biological constraints of Earthly existence? What is needed? Not more horrifying statistics surely. Everybody already knows. We feel helpless and disempowered as the technologic juggernaut rolls along. Scientists warn that we may be the last generation of humanity to have the chance to avert biological collapse and irreparable damage to the systems that support complex life on Earth. Paul Ehrlich thinks that we are sawing off the branch that we're sitting on. James Lovelock said it's as if the brain were to decide that it is the most important organ in the body and started mining the liver. Sounds to me like some kind of psychological problem.

There seems to me to be a dearth of qualitative, phenomenologically based studies in this area, which would attempt to reveal, in a non-biased way, without possible results skewing hypotheses, the significance of the type of psychological and possible spiritual processes and changes that have been reported and can take place during extended wilderness stays. I believe the relative absence of presuppositions involving hypotheses will enable themes to emerge from the twelve interviews I have conducted as part of this study. These themes then will have come more or less directly from my co-researcher’s (interviewee's) experiences of wilderness. Staying true to the spirit of phenomenological inquiry and watching themes emerge organically, so to speak, is both inspiring and encouraging. What this and other similar studies have found could open the doors for further research in this area. One point of this study is just that; to further open, for heuristic purposes, phenomenological inquiry and qualitative research in this area by helping to formulate more ideas and questions regarding the nature of wilderness experience and its implications. It is my hope that this will facilitate the honoring, on a wider scale, of these processes and experiences and take a step toward a deeper understanding of interrelationship and the profoundly symbiotic nature of our existence with our beloved and endangered earth.

39. Theodore Roszak - Awakening The Ecological Unconscious
    ecopsychology healing our alienation from the rest of Creation. There are a numberof fascinating issues ecopsychology has brought into strong, personal focus  
    http://www.context.org/ICLIB/IC34/Roszak.htm
    
    Extractions: Vice President Al Gore, in his book, Earth in the Balance, is among those who compare our culture's inability to effectively grapple with our ecological crisis to a dysfunctional family. In both cases one finds symptoms of denial, failure to take responsibility for damage caused, and a sense of inertia that interferes with meaningful change. But where can a dysfunctional culture go for a cure? Theodore Roszak's call for a new synthesis of psychology, cosmology, and ecology may be part of the answer. "We need a new discipline that sees the needs of the planet and the person as a continuum and that can help us reconnect with the truth that lies in our communion with the rest of creation," he writes in The Voice of the Earth (Simon and Schuster, soon to be released as a Touchstone paperback). Theodore Roszak's book has sparked an interest among many in related fields in the potential for a new discipline based on these principles. He has dubbed this discipline "ecopsychology," and he is asking those interested in integrating the expertise of the environmentalist with the sensibility of the therapist to write to him at the History Department, California State University, Hayward CA 94542.

    Extractions: In preparing this edition of American Spirit, the topic of Shamanism came to mind. I located phone numbers for a few of the practicing Shamans in the local area. This is how I got in touch with Leslie. After talking to her for a few minutes and arranging a time for an interview, it occurred to me that I had participated in a drum journey with her almost ten years ago in a home in the Berkeley Hills. This was in the beginning of my "search for truth." Wow! So much had happened since then! I remember the journey being a very profound experience, so this made the interview even more meaningful for me. That's one of the great things about working on this paper. I've gotten to meet many people, teachers, authors, etc., that have touched my life in some way and discussing their own lives and realizations with them has been quite a joy. We did the interview in her San Francisco home on a Sunday morning. Leslie, a Native American Shaman, also holds a Ph.D. in psychology. Her current project is a section in an upcoming book on the subject of ecopsychology. Needless to say, there were many topics explored and we've done our best to give a summary of all the things we discussed. AS: What exactly is Ecopsychology?
