...and you want something for a change that really works. An approach called The Three Principles (a.k.a. Health Realization) is making an enormous difference in these areas.
What is "The Three Principles"?
The Center for Inside-Out Understanding (CIOU) (a.k.a. NorthEast Health Realization Institute (NEHRI)) can help you learn to apply The Three Principles to improve the quality of your life and work.
- an understanding of three spiritual/psycholgical facts that, together, create our human experience, moment to moment
- a way to tap the human spirit to create constructive change
- a way to bring out the best in people
- a way for us to realize the natural mental health that is our birthright, and how we keep ourselves from seeing it
- a way to move people to well-being and away from problems
- a way to draw out internal resilience
- a way to prevent community problems from the inside-out
When applied in inner-city housing projects, replete with all manner of abuse and violence, residents found hope by tapping into inner resources that they didn't know they had, and their lives completely changed.
NEHRI Publications offers books and papers pertaining to the Three Principles (fornerly, Health Realization) understanding..
The Center for Inside-Out Understanding provides seminars, workshops and presentations for prevention and human services workers, parents, caregivers, teachers, community groups, organizations, businesses, coaches, and others. We adapt what we do to meet your specific needs.
[For upcoming workshops, see bottom of this page.]
CIOU also provides a training of practitoners program for people who want to work with communities, organizations, groups, parents, schools, and others using the inside-out Health Realization approach.
The Center for Inside-Out Understanding offers counseling and coaching by telephone or in person for personal well-being, for parenting, for teaching, and supervision or coaching for Three Principles practitioners.
