Download and read online ebook Ecological and Social Healing write by Jeanine M. Canty. This book was released on 2016-10-04. Ecological and Social Healing available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book is an edited collection of essays by fourteen multicultural women (including a few Anglo women) who are doing work that crosses the boundaries of ecological and social healing. The women are prominent academics, writers and leaders spanning Native American, Indigenous, Asian, African, Latina, Jewish and Multiracial backgrounds. The contributors express a myriad of ways that the relationship between the ecological and social have brought new understanding to their experiences and work in the world. Moreover by working with these edges of awareness, they are identifying new forms of teaching, leading, healing and positive change. Ecological and Social Healing is rooted in these ideas and speaks to an "edge awareness or consciousness." In essence this speaks to the power of integrating multiple and often conflicting views and the transformations that result. As women working across the boundaries of the ecological and social, we have powerful experiences that are creating new forms of healing. This book is rooted in academic theory as well as personal and professional experience, and highlights emerging models and insights. It will appeal to those working, teaching and learning in the fields of social justice, environmental issues, women's studies, spirituality, transformative/environmental/sustainability leadership, and interdisciplinary/intersectionality studies.

Download and read online ebook Ecological Medicine write by Ken Ausubel. This book was released on 2004. Ecological Medicine available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In this pathfinding book, many of the world’s leading health visionaries show how human health is inescapably dependent on the health of our environment. Drawn largely from presentations given at the annual Bioneers Conference, it focuses on pragmatic solutions growing at the fertile interface between environmental restoration and holistic healing. The Bioneers ("biological pioneers”) are a network of scientists, writers, economists, artists, and others with practical and visionary solutions for our most pressing environmental and social challenges. Advocates of the emerging movement known as Ecological Medicine look to the strategic public health measures that first do no harm to the environment and, in turn, improve human health. They call for prevention and precaution as the first line of action. They seek to heal the tragic split that conventional medicine made from nature, and to conjure nature’s own mysterious capacity for self-repair. They celebrate the virtues of ancient natural medicine but also embrace an integrative approach that blends the best of all healing practices--emphasizing the centrality of the human spirit in the healing process. Their inspiring work, described so compellingly in this book, is of critical relevance to everyone concerned about health and the environment.

Download and read online ebook Ecological Psychology write by Deborah Du Nann Winter. This book was released on 2003. Ecological Psychology available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. As an introduction to psychology applied to environmental problems, this book is written for the introductory psychology student, the environmental studies student and for the layperson who may wonder if psychology has anything useful to say about mounting ecological difficulties. The opening chapter outlines the main features of environmental problems and argues that becuase they have been caused by human behaviours, beliefs, decisions and values, psychology is crucial for finding solutions to them. Chapter two discusses some historical contributions in Western intellectual thought to contemporary views about nature. Chapters three to seven each examine a particular field or theory in psychology and apply it to a selected environmental problem. Chapter eight summarizes and compares these five psychological approaches and analyses where psychology has been and where the author beleives it should go in order to make stronger and more potent contributions to solving environmental problems.
