Ecological Re-Integration

Sometimes, talking about our experiences, needs, emotions, and memories can be incredibly important and powerful in creating the life we want. Sometimes, words fall short and we need other ways to move through what is holding us back or towards what we envision.

Ecology comes from the Greek oikos which means, essentially, “house” and from the Latin logia which refers to study. The ecology of our planet, then, is the study of this earthly home we inhabit and all the living organisms and layers and of life that live here with us.

To be integrated—to have integrity of mind/body/spirit, of past/present/future—is to find your way to a felt sense of a foundation that holds you while allowing you to grow and expand.

Our journey together will be a process of understanding our bodies as ecosystems interconnected with the overlapping/co-regulating ecosystems of all other bodies, all other living things, and the entire cosmos herself. This is the necessary re-orienting that will position us to build a healthier future.

Without an understanding of ourselves as innately and inextricably of the natural world and the natural order, we will continue to suffer in our wrong-headed conception of ourselves as adjacent to them. Together, we’ll draw on (and integrate) so much wisdom—from people and plants and creatures and rocks—to return you to your childlike certainty of your own value and the value of all living things.

There is magic in this psychic re-wilding. We are all born knowing this magic and it’s only through a forced forgetting that we become so anxious, depressed, isolated, and restless. We can heal but we must to do so in community and we must do so in right relationship with our shared planetary home.

Yoga & Meditation

There are 8 limbs of yoga, according to the Eightfold Path as set forth by Patanjali, an ancient Hindu sage and author of the Yoga Sutras. The first two limbs of the path address the ways that we treat ourselves and each other. The third limb is ‘asana,’ or posture, and offers us the movement practice that has come to be more generally termed ‘yoga’ in the West.

As you explore this path, you focus on the breath, deep concentration, and the practice of seated meditation to still the mind and offer a sense of peace. All of us will keep walking this path throughout our lives, finding that each limb supports and enhances the others. There is no beginning or end; there is only this moment now.

These practices are deeply rewarding and they can also be challenging. Understanding ourselves as the constantly changing organisms we are, we find a humility and reverence for ancient wisdom while incorporating the lived experiences we step into each day. Every lifeform is born with an innate awareness of its worthiness and purpose. As we are taught to abandon this knowing in exchange for the promise of wealth or status, our sense of self degrades. These practices, along with many others, provide the ground for remembering what we’ve always known, and then behaving accordingly.
