Ecopsychology and environmental psychology are two of the disciplines which deal directly with human-nature relationships. They seek to complement other disciplines dealing with these relationships, including aspects of ecology, human geography, environmental action and sustainability, architecture and design, and ecophilosophy. Environmental psychology is a well-established academic field with a strong research base. Its focus is the way humans interact with their environments, including built and natural environments. Ecopsychology, an emerging orientation, draws from ecology, psychology, and philosophy, as well as other fields. It is based on the intimate connection between humans and nature, the implications of that connection, and applications for realizing that connection. Many, but not all, environmental psychologists tend toward more reductionistic models of human nature, while ecopsychologists tend toward more expansive and less dualistic models of human-nature relationships. While my main interests are the transpersonal and spiritual aspects of ecopsychology, I taught college courses on environmental psychology for some years and I value its contributions. The intersection of environmental psychology and ecopsychology is useful for both fields.

23. ET 4/97: Ecopsychology: Connecting Our Mental Health To Our Environmental Behavi An article on the investigation of green behavior by Catherine Honora Kineavy. http://www.sdearthtimes.com/et0497/et0497s7.html

Ecopsychology: connecting our mental health to our environmental behavior An investigation of green behavior, and we don't mean tree-hugging (necessarily) by Catherine Honora Kineavy copsychology is a combination of ecology, "the science of the rela- tionship between organisms and their environments," and psychology, "the science of mental processes or behavior." This fledgling field is attempting to heal the planet and its inhabitants by delving deeply into core personality issues, in an attempt to understand environmental behavior. Our planet's ecological health is directly related to the mental health of its inhabitants. Ecopsychologists, a group of individuals made up of ecologists, psychologists and environmentalists, are working to bring this concept to the public's awareness. Ecopsychologists believe that our destructive environmental behaviors stem from our sense of disconnection to the natural world. They contend that we have an "ecological unconscious" that is repressed in some individuals. This ecological unconscious is our connection to our evolution on earth. In other words, if we recover our sense of connection to our natural world, we will begin to be more environmentally conscious people. One goal of ecopsychologists is to question our notion of sanity in this growth-oriented culture. For example, it is a well-known fact that westerners especially Americans are the world's greatest consumers. It could be argued that we, as a culture, are addicted to consuming. From an ecopsychological perspective, in order for consumers to curtail their overconsumption, the motivating forces of this behavior pattern needs to be identified in order to free individuals from this addiction. Ecopsychologists would argue that the disconnection between self and earth is the reason individuals do not think about the relationship between their consumer choices and ecological destruction. Further, ecopsychologists believe that if we heal the underlying addictive motivations, we will begin to heal the ecological environment because individuals would cease to overconsume, thereby becoming better "environmental citizens."

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

Hélène Fletcher Feminist embodied psychotherapy and ecopsychology Working in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, U.K. EMBODIED PSYCHOTHERAPY I will encourage you to relax and stay with what you are experiencing in the present. I encourage dialogue in imagination with those you find hard to relate to. Dialogue with aspects of oneself is also a good way to tackle internal conflicts that seem to stop you getting on with your life. I do not advise or judge, but try to help you find the underlying cause. So we also look together at the family history, spoken and unspoken beliefs that were passed on you. We may also work with the way you breathe and with your posture. Many repressed emotions get stuck in our muscles. Releasing the stuckness by breathing deeper, making a sound, hitting a cushion or moving however you feel can be very freeing. As you speak, we will stay with a sudden movement or body symptom so you can explore for example emphasizing or reducing them in order to find out what needs to be expressed.

About Admissions Academics Student Life ... President's Office Ecopsychology Program Home What is Ecopsychology? Foundations Contemplative Education ... Apply What is Ecopsychology? Ecopsychology is a new field that is developing in recognition that human health, identity and sanity are intimately linked to the health of the earth and must include sustainable and mutually enhancing relationships between humans and the nonhuman world. Ecopsychology places human psychology in an ecological context and is aimed at healing the divisions between mind and nature, humans and earth. The central concern of ecopsychology is the physical, psychological and spiritual health of both the human and nonhuman and an understanding of the psychological processes that either bond us to the natural world or alienate us from it. Ecology is the study of connection, of the interrelationships among all forms of life and the physical environment. Psychology is the study of the human psyche, of the human mind and soul as it perceives, feels, thinks and acts. Ecopsychology brings psychology and ecology together to create a healing context for and new understanding of the human-nature relationship. Areas of interest to ecopsychologists include effective environmental education and action, ecotherapy, the healing and initiatory influences of encounters with "wild" nature, development of the "ecological" self, creating healthy alternatives to materialism and consumerism, earth-based spiritual practices and education for a just and sustainable future.

SHAMANIC COUNSELING AND ECOPSYCHOLOGY An Interview with Leslie Gray 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 environmentalist. 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?
