If we want to experience our life in its wholeness, we need to start by integrating the fragmented lenses through which we see ourselves. Such integration will not occur by following a standardized manual of written recipes. Rather, it is the result of our unique journey through the unknown field of the present moment in search of our own recipes. It is the journey that is called forth by our longing to find our True Selves and to live out our purpose.

The word Ecology prescribes the holistic view needed to hold the complexity of relationships that shape the ecology of existence, the ecology of our nature, and that of life on this planet. We are embedded in a field of relationships with everything that exists and even that which doesn’t exist. It is through these relationships that we find meaning in our lives, and eventually transcend all meanings into the experience of our spiritual Self. Our Psyche - our body, mind, and heart - is our sensory portal through which we communicate and connect in this field of relationships.

If we mentalize or analyze these complexities in the attempt to make sense of them and of ourselves, we will lose the working of the whole because the whole is greater than what our mind can hold. Instead, through a somatic approach to embodiment, we use the body as the container of the whole undiscerned and undiscriminated experience of what is happening in our psyche in the present moment, since the body is always in the present moment. In this way, we pursue the true experience of ourselves rather than our current built hypothesis of who we are. Through silent listening, a renewed sense of awe, and curiosity for what is happening in our body, we open up to receive the wisdom of our sacred awareness. We open up to the re-membrance of our True Self. We open up to re-embody in awareness. Thus, the counseling sessions serve to develop a practice of being present to what is, of listening to ourselves and to what resonates with us through the experiences in our life, and in preparing the ground of our Psyche for receiving the seed of our awareness.
