About IMHS

The Institute of Metaphysical Humanistic Science (IMHS) is an educational program of the International Church of Metaphysical Humanism, Inc. (ICMH) a global, online metaphysical ministry based in North Port, Florida, USA. The Church teaches a human-centered spiritual philosophy called Metaphysical Humanism that is designed to build up and empower people by focusing on and reminding them of the indomitable power of their human spirit. Since 2010, IMHS has set a new standard in non-academic, metaphysically-based degrees and courses that teach a variety of metaphysical topics as well as valuable life-skills that can be used immediately. Our metaphysical degree program is aimed at those who are looking for a more objective and grounded metaphysical curriculum. We actually go far beyond the more typical metaphysical teachings in that we also focus on practical metaphysical concepts which provide our students with the knowledge they need to remain grounded and successful in their chosen field. We take great care to disseminate quality information that empowers the human spirit and allows individuals to get past the things that hold them back. A common expression is "You get what you pay for," and while this may be true in most cases, it is, in fact, not true with IMHS—you actually get much more than you pay for. Read the information about our degree program on this site and we think you'll agree that our curriculum is unique and exciting. In short, the IMHS Degree Program changes lives! Our Mission To raise the awareness and vibrational level of humanity and to change lives positively by teaching grounded metaphysical concepts and practical life-skills that allow people to get past the things that hold them back thus empowering them to live happier, more enriched, and more enlightened lives with a view to self-completeness and self-actualization. Our Vision To
become widely recognized as the preeminent educational institution for
those seeking a grounded and realistic approach to understanding
consciousness, existence, and the human condition. Our vision is a
world in which self-acceptance, self-responsibility, respect for free
will, and self-completeness lead to an increased awareness and
knowledge of the human condition and human potential thereby producing
and promoting peaceful coexistence among all peoples. We envision IMHS
concepts and principles inspiring students to make a positive
difference in their own lives as well as in the lives of those within
their sphere of influence thus spreading positive change throughout
the planet. We hope to see you soon as one of our students!

Some
have asked about the meaning of the IMHS logo, variations of which are used by IMHS parent
"Triquetra"
(tra'kee-tra) basically means "triangle" and has been used by many
ancient peoples and belief systems over recorded history including
Christianity and Paganism (a pagan is a person who is not a Christian,
Jew, or Muslim). This symbol is used in our logo to represent three
fundamental skills necessary for one to reach his or her full potential:
Self-Acceptance; Self-Responsibility; and Respect for Free Will, and
these three are interconnected by a never-ending line. These three
elements then synergistically create Self-Completeness. Collectively,
this model is known as the
Life Leadership ParagonTM and is a fundamental
belief system of the International Church of Metaphysical Humanism. These skills are also taught in IMHS Institute
courses and it forms the foundation of Life Leadership Coaching--a
Transpersonal Approach to Self-Completeness taught in our PhD Degree
Program.
Pentagram
The
three arrows graphic represents personal growth, positive evolution, and
the freedom of choice for one to pursue his or her individual destiny
and purpose. The three arrows point up, but in different directions
representing freedom of choice. The lower red arrow represents the
beginning of our journey without much enlightenment, but then we gain
more and more as we grow, as represented by the green arrow.
The three circles
in the background simply represent the mind, body, and spirit,
and these three are simply aspects of the whole person.
