BEING AN INTEGRATED ORGANISM

We want to engender and cultivate skills that promote integration within a person and harmonization between humanity and the rest of the natural world. 

The skills we are all taught in modern society are designed to help us succeed within a pathological culture driven by a dualistic, reductionist worldview that is leading humanity on a trajectory towards disaster.

The Liology Institute intends to foster the development and dissemination of alternative skills that promote integration within each person and harmonization between humanity and the rest of the natural world.

Skillful integration within an individual would include energy management techniques such as qigong/tai-chi along with mind regulation practices such as meditation.  

The ability to harmonize within groups sharing similar values requires the development of interpersonal skills honoring and building upon each other’s differences to create communities of integration and diversity.  

Finally, creating a sustainable and harmonious relationship with the natural world requires skills of ecoliteracy, ecological design and spiritual connectedness.  

The Liology Institute intends to create a context that can foster all these and related skills.
