THE TODO INSTITUTE: 
25 YEARS AND COUNTING . . .

For the past 25 years, the ToDo Institute has been planting seeds of wisdom and compassion, all across the globe, through a natural approach to mental wellness that is based on Japanese Psychology.

Gregg Krech is the Founding Director of ToDo.  He and I have been running this organization together, in one capacity or another, since its inception in 1992. (So we’ve been working together, as a married couple, for 25 years -- that alone is great testimony to this work!)

Our approach to mental wellness is holistic and empowering, offering practical, psychological and spiritual guidance for coping with real life.

That includes everyday life, with all of its bumps and twists, as well as more serious challenges, such as addictions, illness, bereavement, unemployment, marital difficulties, parenting conflicts, or extreme depression and anxiety.

Such problems are woven into the fabric of life, but many people today feel unequipped to cope with them successfully. The ToDo Institute provides pragmatic and inspiring guidance that is skill-based, and that can be learned and practiced over the span of one's life.  This empowering work takes the mystique out of coping and offers a way of living that restores our love of life.

We have created a body of work which highlights the relationship between mental health and living well, including seven online programs, numerous books, retreats and residential programs, and a quarterly publication.

We provide Certification in Japanese Psychology and have trained educators, mental health professionals, clergy, as well as laypeople for over 20 years. We are also collaborating with and supporting others around the world who are integrating Morita Therapy and/or Naikan into mental health systems, schools and prisons.

But despite the fact that we are very proud of the history we’ve created, and equally excited about our future plans, we are extremely humbled by the challenges that we are currently facing. If we are to remain viable in this rapidly changing world, we MUST expand our capacity.The limitations of our current plateau are no longer sustainable.

The time has come to update our technology and infrastructure and broaden our support team, which will translate into both increased membership and revenue. And we’ve already begun.

Please partner with us. By supporting the ToDo Institute, you are investing in solutions to many of today's challenging problems and helping to create a more compassionate and promising world.  

Gregg joins me in sending our heartfelt appreciation for your support!

With warmest regards,

Linda Anderson Krech, LICSW

The clock is ticking for all of us.  Though that may not be the most pleasant reminder, it may just be the most important.  

We can make each day precious by remembering that we will, at some point, run out of days.   What do you care most about? What do you want to do before you die?  How do you want to spend the time that is still available to you?  What kind of legacy do you want to leave?

The ToDo Institute is all about living on purpose, whether that purpose involves trips you want to take, qualities you want to develop, or relationships you want to nurture.  Both our blog and our quarterly publication capture this truth in their title, to give us a little nudge and prevent us from drifting into complacency.

Gregg and I have a shared purpose.  We want to develop a new era for the ToDo Institute, so that the spirit and the nature of this work will live on, beyond our thirty thousand days.  If this material is to survive, it needs to be rooted in communities and institutions.  It needs to be cultivated into gardens, that develop their own life force.  It needs to get integrated into the hearts and minds of our misguided and floundering culture.  

And we are up for creating this new era.  By September, both of our beautiful daughters will be in college and we will be less distracted by family demands.  This fundraising campaign will help to launch our new era.  Please partner with us so that together we can cultivate as much wisdom and compassion as possible in this wild and wonderful world.

Here's to all of our grand adventures!

Thank you!

Linda
