This website helps graduate students
master the Natural Systems Thinking
Process (NSTP)
and enjoy the profound job, career
and degree rewards from making conscious sensory contacts with
Nature at work, home or school.
The Natural Systems Thinking Process is for individuals
interested in Healing or Alternative Medicine jobs, degrees and
careers who
appreciate what many studies confirm. It is this: because humanity
is part of nature, people work, relate, perform, feel and
heal better when geuinely
connected to attractions in Nature.
NSTP is for individuals who love the
ocean, forest or clouds; the wind, hills and stars. It is for
individuals who appreciate others that love nature and our planet
home.
NSTP helps people of any age who
- have had at least one good experience
in nature: at the beach, on a mountain, with a flower or pet.
- recognize that their nature experiences
enriched their life.
- would not want to give up their good
experiences in natural settings and would enjoy having them again.
- want to help people benefit from nature
connected thinking, feeling, and relating
Research affirms that most things
go better with Nature. Studies
also show that, backyard or back country, the
process
of genuinely connecting our psyche
to natural systems helps people more successfully meet their
goals while giving Nature added value and protection.
For this reason:
- parents, students and instructors learn
and teach NSTP.
- counselors, healers and leaders incorporate
NSTP their work.
- NSTP courses are accredited and are
offered as part of several university degree programs
- NSTP helps any caring person heal themselves,
others and the environment.
- NSTP helps resolve conflict on personal
and international levels.
- articles validating NSTP are reviewed
and published in professional publications.
- NSTP empowers individuals to promote
peace, sustainability and social justice.
NSTP works, simply because Nature is
an intelligent perfection of its own that we inherit as part
of Nature. However, our excessively nature-separated lives unplug
us from sensory contact with natural systems. Disconnected, nature's
eons lie hurt and buried within us, unavailable to our thinking
and relationships. NSTP enables us to help that perfection recover
and participate in our lives to our benefit.
NSTP dramatically helps people solve
many problems, including some they thought they might never solve.
It makes readily available an authentic source of "higher
power."
"The Natural Systems Thinking Process
provides a readily accessible ....and.wonderfully effective means
for students to acquire, understand, and act upon the transforming
experience of being connected to nature; of being in respectful
relationship with the natural world of which they are a part."
J.Marc McGinnes, J.D.
Senate Lecturer
University of California at Santa Barbara
Environmental Studies
"We dramatically increased our program's effectiveness by
adding the Natural Systems Thinking Process to it. It enables
our participants to connect with their sensory origins in nature
and use that peaceful power to improve their relationships with
self, society and the environment."
