Summary

The MA Spirituality, Ecology & Mental Health (SEMH) is for those who are seeking to explore the big questions in life. This course is for both newcomers to psychology wanting to change their lives, career or world and practitioners wishing to develop their skills and knowledge of the interrelationship between nature, spirituality, mental health and wellness. SEMH is an innovative course that has the potential to deepen your understanding and connection with yourself, your life and your world, in order to bring about meaningful change. SEMH is a personal and experiential journey to wholeness, taking place in a community of like-minded passionate teachers and practitioners at the Centre for Positive Psychology. SEMH promotes a cross-disciplinary approach to psychology, drawing from rapidly growing specialist areas of psychology including Transpersonal, Experiential and Counselling Psychology. You will deepen your knowledge and understanding of the science of spirituality through a teaching ethos of theory-practice-reflection. You will develop both a conceptual and experiential understanding of spirituality, mental health and wellness. You will analyze, evaluate and synthesize current scientific research, wisdom traditions and practices to build your own evidence-based spirituality. Finally, you will apply theory and practice to relevant personal and professional contexts to promote the mental health and wellness with yourself and others. You will have the opportunity to create or take part in community projects in the UK and Abroad. In doing so, you may be making the difference in overcoming some of the important challenges facing the world today and learning together that spirituality is active not passive.
