An Essential Introduction to the Integral Approach

What are Levels and Lines?

Have you ever noticed how some people are really good at some things and not so good at others? We can look across many aspects of our life, or at different lines of development, such as our morals, aesthetics, musical talent, and interpersonal relationships, just to name a few, and see a complex picture of ourselves. As we develop through our life, we pass through different milestones or levels of development on each of the many lines, retaining all that we learned previously and adding new understanding as we progress. For example, we are all born without language—as toddlers we begin with a few words and continually, throughout our life, we add on new words, concepts, and structures that expand our knowledge and ability to communicate. The great thing about levels is that they are a permanent acquisition, so language isn’t just present one day and then gone the next. In the following e-learning program, you'll gain a broader understanding about the movement through levels of development, across numerous lines. That way you'll understand more about yourself and others around you.
