WholeLife Education

WholeLife Counseling

WholeLife Wellness

The WholeLife Community will offer a a variety of artistic/creative, recreational, therapeutic, and vocational activities and resources to the community-at-large. Optimally, the majority of the activities will be under the stewardship of the Board and of individuals and community members, who would be responsible for programming, and have a stake in outcomes. It will most certainly conform to cultural competency and community standards, wants and needs. The founder, Alan Kovin, developed WholeLife as a paradigm for the treatment of mental illness, but soon found out that its major tenets and principles were necessary and needed by the population-at-large. The core of WholeLife is based on the premise that as humans, we are much happier, successful, and 'recovered' if we address our domains of function --physical, emotional-mental, vocational, community, spiritual, passion development, etc. For a more theoretical and evidence-based explanation of the logic behind WholeLife, please read and peruse the Papers and the WholeLife Manifesto pages in this website. Following is the initial slate of programs we plan to offer; these of course are the first, and with the input of the community, certainly plan for additions and expansions. Classrooms hosting a robust schedule of community activities, classes, trainings and workshops for vocation, literacy, the arts, recreation, holistic health and spirituality. These would include mini-classes in music, the arts, managing social media, and technology. In addition we would feature:

  • Behavioral health groups including group therapy, family group, couples group, spirituality groups, peer support specialist training, and other therapeutic groups such as yoga, qigong, exercise, breathwork, etc. These would be part of a WholeLife Mental Health Clinic or Recovery Clinic or?

  • Arts, music/recording, video, and other creative studios and production facilities, as well as performance resources, and hosting community based events. We could administrate a WholeLife Community Channel, which would produce beneficial media for the community, and interface with Universities, Civic Departments, and other organizations whose purpose is complementary.

We have unlimited numbers of pharmacies in the Philippines, but nary any apothecaries. Apothecaries specialize in herbal remedies. The WCC would house an impressive selection of affordable herbs, tinctures, growing mediums, seeds, etc. Let’s dream a little further and have a respectable sized community garden.
