WRITTEN WORKS & PUBLICATIONS
Craig Chalquist, PhD

On this page you will find articles, essays, and other publications available for free download.

The content and materials in these texts focus on aspects of the interplay between story, self,
mind, nature, and imagination. The key is using ideas and practices to create stories that guide us.

Terrapsychology explores how terrain, place, element, and natural process show up in human psychology, endeavor, and story, including myth and folklore.

Loreology is the foundation of my work, a set of practices and paradigms with which we can explore the stories that keep us stuck in order to expand them, absorb their lessons, or replace them.
