If we want to be whole, we need to start by integrating the fragmented lenses through which we see ourselves. Such integration will not occur by following a manual of written recipes. Rather, it is the result of our unique journey through the unknown field of the present moment. It is the journey that is called forth by our need to find our true selves and that of living out our purpose.

The prefix Eco 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. We are embedded in a field of relationships with everything that exists, and it is through these relationships that we find meaning in life. Our body, mind, and spirit are our sensory portals through which we communicate and connect in this field of relationships. Suppose we compartmentalize or analyze these complexities in order to make sense of them and ourselves. In that case, we will lose the working of the whole because the whole is greater than any of its parts and it is greater even than the sum of its parts.

Through a somatic approach to embodiment, we use the body to come back to the whole experience of what is happening to us 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 hypothesis. Thus the counseling sessions serve to develop a practice of being present, of awareness, and of listening to ourselves and to what resonates with us through the experiences in our life.
