After several years of intense work a group of us calling ourselves stewards now invite folks to visit and become a part of a dynamic experience called The Powers of Place. Besides finding conversation groups you'll feel an affinity with, a "field" in which to play, you'll discover all kind of resources about "place."
One is a bibliography of resources I put together and learned a great deal from. For instance, "ecopsychology"--the link between mind and nature-- was not in my vocabulary until I realized the term's been around long enough now to be deemed a growing discipline (albeit not "science" enough for some.)
Check out the Jan. 27, 2010 New York Times article, "Is There an Ecological Consciousness?" by Daniel Smith to learn more.
Oops, your link is wrong on this entry, should be www.powersofplace.com not www.thepowersofplace.com . Cheers,
