Christopher Peet, PhD, is Professor of Psychology at The King’s University, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Chris published his first book Practicing Transcendence in 2019, his first podcast Afterthought in 2020, and in 2021 he established the nonprofit organization "Institute for Contemplative Ecology".
In June 2021 I started up the non-profit 'Institute for Contemplative Ecology', a land-based education, research, and retreat center. I hope to apply the research and background that went into my book and podcast, as well as the work behind this website in terms of 'contemplative ecology', in the form of an Institute.
