As a global community, Organic Intelligence^® (OI™) brings a necessary shift to the understanding of healing and lasting change. Grounded in the science of positive reinforcement, compassion, meditative practice, and clinical psychology, OI provides an experiential roadmap that charts the wholesome development of our well-being and human empowerment: the OI trajectory for Post-Trauma Growth (PTG).

 

“Organic Intelligence^® is making a stand by re-orienting the
therapeutic focus toward positive reinforcement and the
experience of our innate healing nature.”

 

In the therapeutic world and beyond, OI is calling for a shift of paradigm by saying our humanity needs support to grow bandwidth, not more high intensity in treatment. Based on growing research evidence, we believe the focus on trauma itself is causing large-scale, under-researched and unnecessary harm due to the negative high intensity it evokes. OI is making a stand by re-orienting the therapeutic focus toward positive reinforcement and the experience of our innate healing nature.

 

Post-Trauma Growth

People can and do grow after trauma and emerge with purpose, more resilient than before. For us to do so, our organism must shift from self-protection back to growth mode, where we can relax, rebalance and recharge. We’ve found this happens gradually and automatically in the presence of compassion and enough attuned support — not high intensity.

Rather than “processing” trauma or the past, Organic Intelligence trains its members to increase the bandwidth of our human neurobiology — because when our bandwidth grows our whole being grows, and the chronic suffering that was our lack of bandwidth dissolves.

The Science of Auto-Organization

Organic Intelligence is grounded in complexity sciences, which have brought to light something our cells already know: under the right conditions, our systems become auto-organizing. In other words, we don’t have to DO our healing, it’s already being done for us by a pre-existing intelligence. What we can do is to create the conditions that allow for healing to be incorporated.

When successful, our system naturally shifts from efforted self-regulation to effortless auto-regulation. The key is positive reinforcement: the way our neurobiology grows through positive learning experiences that are within enjoyable range.

Using OI’s clear step-by-step trajectory to safely grow bandwidth, thousands of people worldwide are finding themselves easily facing what was overwhelming before. Life’s difficulties shrink in relation to their expanded capacity. Symptoms are relieved. Big issues become small issues, then no issue at all. Innate resources become available for healing and connecting — the opposite of trauma and freeze.

A New Arc of Healing is Here

Organic Intelligence teaches the distinct phases for nurturing your client’s own post-trauma growth and healing impulse into its long-term flourishing. Trainees learn how to hold a deeply attuned, conversational interaction in which the client’s neurobiology reorganizes and leads the way to the client’s own empowerment. The OI coach is equally recharged in their facilitation, providing a meaningful and rewarding work-life balance without the risk of burnout or trauma.

In our programs, you will come to:

●      Understand the science-based fundamentals of systems theory, graduate-level psychological theories, and mindfulness for post-trauma growth

●      Learn to align with allostasis: the brain’s fundamental predictive function that organizes and prepares the entire physiology for what comes next

●      Grow your clients’ processing bandwidth, planning, and problem-solving abilities at the source: our human neurobiology

●      Recognize your clients’ emergent states that lead naturally toward biological Auto-Organization — the basis of self-healing

●      Work with an emphasis on relational attunement to your client in the here-and-now

●      Gain competence and confidence by receiving skillful OI support from a diverse global community

●      Advance in the OI Trajectory as you learn to work with increasingly complex client situations and grow from beginning practitioner to instructor level

“The OI Coach Certification program has been a unique and life-changing experience. In all of my education and training to date, the content, experiential structure, and level of support that was provided in OICC has been unparalleled. I did not know learning and growing in such a nourishing way was possible. The experience has opened my eyes to a new vision of life and work for which I am ever grateful.”
- Hagen A.

“I believe OI to be one of the most empowering frameworks to work with the traumatized human system trapped in a state of freeze. The structure, the modules, labs, coaching sessions and breaks allowed me to pace my learning, and experience the course without overwhelm!”
- Alina G.

“OI has changed how I think and live. It is a game changer. And, it has had a dramatic impact on how I work. My work feels more easeful and joyful. Clients who seemed stuck - particularly those who have large amounts of freeze - are changing and healing.”
– Brigitta S.

 

Justice & Compassion

We offer our courses and programs to move beyond trauma and harmful biases, whether conscious or unconscious. OI stands with those on paths of empowerment for justice and compassion on all levels — personally and societally. Together, we work to restore what is already in our nature: a felt sense of connection with, and commitment to, the entire family of life on our planetary home.
