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-researchers (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.

Extractions: Cultural Ecopsychology: Issues of Displacement and the Urban African Community Literature Review You can end up thousands of miles away from your birthplace, and if you are involved in a healing ritual that is meant to work, you have to invoke the spirits that are at the place where you were born in addition to those who are natives of the place you are in...If you embrace this concept, you will find that human mobility does not remove a persons original connection to the birthplace (Somé, 1998, p. 39). Personal Statement As an African American woman who neither lives in a city, nor in a Black community, it is important for me to identify why I am addressing the issue of displacement for urban African Americans. I must acknowledge that I come from an economically secure family and have lived a somewhat privileged life. I feel that the quote above speaks to my connection to this issue. Although I have lived primarily in suburban and rural areas throughout my life, I am a third generation New Yorker. I was born in the inner city of Bronx, New York, while both of my parents were born in Harlem, New York. While conducting the research for this paper, I realized that the story of my own family paralleled the trends that occurred for many African American families. Both my paternal grandparents migrated to the city from the South between the two world wars under difficult circumstances and together raised a family under harsh conditions which (on the less positive side) included economic poverty, addiction, and depression. The story of my maternal grandparents is less known, but I do know that both were descendants from the Carribean, and that my great grandmother migrated to New York prior to World War I from Jamaica. My ancestors, like many African Americans, were challenged to both meet their basic survival needs and recreate their cultural identity in a foreign environment which held few economic opportunities for Blacks and whose structure represented the heart of an industrialized, western society.

Overview Of Ecopsychology
OVERVIEW OF ecopsychology. JOHN DAVIS, Ph.D. INTRODUCTION. ecopsychology is developingrapidly as a field of study, and it has no single definition yet.
http://www.naropa.edu/faculty/johndavis/ep/ecopsy.html

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

Extractions: December 6-8, 2002 Dear Prospective Student: Thank you for your interest in the Ecopsychology Certificate Program at Naropa University. We are pleased to receive your inquiry and are happy to share with you information regarding this program. Ecopsychology is an emerging field that explores the interrelationship between humans and the natural world. This field seeks to awaken us to the illusion that a separation exists between self and nature. It suggests that by rediscovering our connection with all things, we can begin the process of psychological and ecological healing. Areas of interest to Ecopsychologists include effective environmental education and action, ecotherapy, the promotion of sustainability, the healing and initiatory influences of encounters with wilderness and nearby nature, and the sacred dimensions of human-nature relationships.

Extractions: PAPER DELIVERED BY JOHN SEED TO THE ECOPSYCHOLOGY SYMPOSIUM AT THE AUSTRALIAN PSYCHOLOGICAL SOCIETY'S 28TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE, GOLD COAST, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, 2/10/94 SHORTER VERSION I take "ecopsychology" to mean psychology in service to the Earth. ECO, PSYCHE, LOGOS: Knowing that the Earth is home to our soul. In spite of the modern delusion of alienation, of separation from the living Earth, we are NOT aliens, we belong here. The human psych too is Earth-born, th e result of 4000 million years of continuous evolution and the complex, exquisite biology from which psyche emerged inevitably remains the matrix, the grounding of any sane psychology. We have all heard the news:Dr. Raymond Dassman, Professor of Biology, University of Califoria: "The 3rd World War has begun: it is being waged against the Earth." Most scientists agree that a million or more species will become extinct between now and the turn of the century, a rate of extinction some thousands of times the natural background rate. etc. etc. etc. We have all heard the news. Yet it has not changed our behaviour except in rather trivial ways.

Shamanic Counseling And Ecopsychology
Shamanic Counseling and ecopsychology. An Interview with Leslie Gray. Whatalternatives to to talking cures does shamanism offer ecopsychology?
http://dr.lesliegray.home.mindspring.com/

Extractions: SLOANE: What is ecopsychology? GRAY: Ecopsychology is an emerging field that recognizes that you cannot have sanity without sane relationships with your environment. Currently in the U.S., groups of cutting-edge thinkers have been participating in dialogues aimed at the creation of a new profession combining sensitivity of the psychotherapist with the expertise of the environment. SLOANE: Is there a practice that accompanies ecopsychology or is it a body of thought? GRAY: Right now, it's mainly a body of thought, but fortunately, those who are forging this new field will not have to reinvent the wheel. We have only to look at the cross-cultural practices of perennial shamanism to find effective models of applied ecopsychology. SLOANE: What do you mean by perennial shamanism? GRAY: Shamanism is the oldest form of mind/body healing known to humankind. It involves the use of altered states of consciousness for the purpose of restoring well-being to those who are experiencing ill-health or helplessness. Shamanism is estimated by archeologists to be at least forty thousand years old. It's been practiced perennially -or continuously-by virtually all indigenous peoples up to today. Only in the West were its practices essentially eradicated, because of the so-called Enlightenment. SLOANE: How does shamanism relate to ecopsychology?

Extractions: www.utne.com/subscribe/gifts/friends or by calling (01) 800 736 UTNE). We are a small group of San Francisco Bay Area psychologists and environmentalists. We invite you to join us in one of the liveliest dialogues on the cultural landscape. The subject of our dialogue is the convergence of psychological insight and environmental concern called 'ecopsychology'. We see ecopsychology as an effort to strengthen our sympathetic bond with the natural world. One name for that bond - a new one - is 'the ecological unconscious'. But there are other, older names. In ancient days, it was called the anima mundi; many tribal people speak of it as their connections with Mother Earth and Father Sun and all our four-legged relatives. Ecopsychology, far from being something new under the sun, belongs to the original form of environmentalism and the oldest tradition of psychological healing we know. 'Stone Age psychiatry', as it has been called. On its ecological side, ecopsychology seeks to acquaint the environmental movement with a subtler, more sensitive psychological way of approaching the public it seeks to win over to its cause. This means asking searching questions about the values and motivations that change human behaviour. Why are so many of us such bad environmental citizens, even when we 'know better'? How do we change our wasteful and destructive behaviour? Has the environmental movement gone as far as it can with scare tactics and guilt trips? Does it risk a serious backlash if it continues to shame and blame a bewildered public?

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.
