Awaken to Novalis Integra

Novalis Integra is a place for new ideas in the field of healing and living.

Why “Novalis” and “Integra”?

So how did the name evolve? Here it is in a nutshell–the inspiration and reasoning behind it.

Novalis was a German poet and philosopher, sometimes called ‘the prophet of Romanticism’. Novalis was his pseudonym. His real name was Georg Philipp Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg (1772-1801). We chose him due to his special significance as a carrier of the impulse for re-awakening humanity to its spiritual nature. He prepared, through his poetry, the true spiritual mood of soul that can propel us forward on the path of our destiny. Novalis was an inspired messenger.

I can think of no better way to introduce you to the Novalis Integra Center than with a quote by Novalis.

“We dream of journeys through the cosmos. Is the cosmos not then in us?
We do not know the depths of our own spirit. The mysterious path leads within.
In us, or nowhere, is eternity with its worlds — the past and the future.”

Integra brings in the concept of integration, of the holistic. Our approach is holographic and inclusive. We place our focus on the dynamic tension between two poles and not on the either/or exclusive views prevalent in our times.

Each individual is a complex unified entity, simultaneously active on many levels. To grasp such complexity with our limited linear thinking is not possible. The new direction is toward an intuitive rationality in which all parts are taken into account as we attempt to assess a person and his or her situation in life.

A message I hear again and again from people who are moving “out of the box” is “I feel alone and I don’t have anyone to share my new thoughts with”.

Many of you are interested in all things holistic, in spirituality and an alternative lifestyle, only to find yourselves in an environment that is either indifferent or at times even rejecting of such a view on life. The resulting feeling of isolation can become a serious life crisis for some.
