"Growth Central is dedicated to an Integral approach to personal growth and relationships" - Rich Pfeiffer, Director/Founder |
Growth Central is celebrating its 11th anniversary (1996 - 2007) providing Mental Health Information and Services including integral programs for anger management, assertiveness, anxiety treatment, addiction recovery, binge eating, brainwaves stimulation, depression treatment, stress management, and self esteem. Growth Central is dedicated to an integral approach to personal growth and relationships. An integral approach to personal growth and relationships suggests that there are three particularly important elements of human consciousness: states, stages, and shadow. States of consciousness include the normal states of waking, dreaming, and sleeping, and also span the spectrum of spiritual experiences, from gross, to subtle, to causal, to nondual. What all states share is that they are temporary, and for the most part can be accessed, through, meditation, contemplative prayer, mind machines, binaural brainwave entrainment, (or simply by chance), in just about any order. Stages of consciousness range from egocentric, to ethnocentric, to worldcentric, to kosmocentric, and will affect how one interprets and understands various states. Stages are permanent acquisitions of the psyche, they unfold in a developmental order, and the sequence cannot be bypasses. The shadow elements of consciousness are those first-person impulses that, for whatever reason, have not been owned by an individual, and therefore appear in consciousness as “not self” (“I’m not angry, but my boss sure is,” or “I’m not angry, but I sure am depressed.”) Read a recent published article by Dr. Pfeiffer on Relationships and the Integral Approach (PDF) Growth Central information products and integral programs for anger management, assertiveness, anxiety treatment, addiction recovery, binge eating, brainwaves stimulation, depression treatment, stress management, and self esteem support the integration of your mind paying close attention to primitive and evolved brain structure functioning as well as synchronization of the left and right brain hemispheres. We understand the importance of unconditional love and acceptance on both the spiritual and psychotherapy paths. Without that larger perspective, without that love of the whole person just as they are, you can get stuck doing “endless psychotherapy.” But once placed in that context of unconditional acceptance, you can use the same old human “stuff” (guilt, anger, shame, etc) that we all bring to the path as grist for the mill, and fuel for real integral growth and consciousness. |
