The Integration Center model targets the root of the three core problems facing our society today: environmental collapse, increasingly-destabilized societies, and ever-worsening mental and physical health.
The model enables small groups of individuals to build structures that actively heal the Earth while building an enduring society filled with healthy people. Integration Centers provide:
- Psychological Integration. They are therapeutic retreat centers that help individuals heal from past traumas and integrate more nurturing practices and paradigms into their life.
- Cultural Integration. They support and are operated by villages where individuals integrate into a healthy culture as that culture integrates into and nurtures its natural surroundings.
- Natural Integration. They are on land where the people work to heal and nurture that land while directly connecting to the rhythm of a natural life.
The Integration Center model is an open business plan that can be implemented by anyone with access to sufficient resources and motivation. This model is self-replicating. If one project succeeds, its positive effects on individuals, society, and the environment will continually expand.
This plan is open so that any individual or group may follow or adapt it as needed. The originating author has been enacting one instance of this plan and will continue reporting back to this site on its progress. Others are encouraged to do the same, so that we may continually learn from each other and improve the overall model.
