The Department of Psychology & Body/Mind Integrative Studies explores the connection between body, mind, psyche and neurology. Body-Mind Integrative Studies is a holonomic perspective stressing the living dynamic between all aspects of self, and the ways in which these contribute to overall health and well-being. Body-Mind Integrative Studies comprises a framework for the practitioner through which human functioning can be viewed as a whole--health and healing in particular. Neither medicine nor bodywork, this field instead provides an integrative view of the self and a variety of tools and approaches for effecting deep-level healing and psycho- physical change. This program may be taken as structured or may be individually designed, incorporating courses from any of the University's Departments, with prior approval of the Dean.
