The Whole Essence Initiative
Faith, Hope and Love - three parts of a Balanced Life.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
Since 2007, I have partnered with friends, family and clients to help them break through the obstacles that seem to be holding them back in life. Everyone has problems. Some inflicted by others but most are inflicted by ourselves.
Faith, Hope and Love are three parts of the wholeness of the human condition. Faith is the connection between our soul and our Creator. Hope is the mind planning for a positive future. Love is how we choose to interact with each other and the world around us.
The Whole Essence Initiative
Body.Mind.Soul - In Balance
The philosopher Plato wrote a balanced person is Just. In this context, Just is another way of saying healthy.
Just in their behavior, their decisions and their interactions with others.
The ESSENTIAL inclusion of faith is a necessary segment to recover a balanced and full life.
The Apostle Paul writes in Galatians 5:13-14 -
"For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
In my personal experience, the absence of balance is one of the primary reasons why we have lost the Whole Essence of our humanity. This loss of our essence/balance reflects itself in how we value (or devalue) our fellow man.
The Whole Essence Initiative (WEI) seeks to champion the necessity of balance in each of our daily lives.
A JUST PERSPECTIVE
Wholly Embrace Life’s Challenges
Rousseau wrote about the loss of Wholeness in 18th century Paris. People in modern society have allowed their self-centered want for stuff, people and things to replace their true selves. When those transitional things go away, we feel alone and unloved. Wholeness does not come from objects or other people; it comes from balance.
3 John 1:2 reads:
Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.
Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. Through coaching sessions, you will learn how to create a just perspective and how to exert your freedom of choice over whatever life may throw at you.
FULFILLING YOUR ESSENCE
Get the Most out of Life
Part of the loss of our whole humanity is the marginalization of essence. An important part of essence is what we choose to do in our lives - for our work and in our personal lives. In the 21st century, we have too often allowed the immediate needs of the moment to disrupt our divine essence.
One of the keys to a happier, healthier life is the rediscovering of our Whole Essence. Our hope is to work with you to give you the tools and techniques to achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.

A Fellow Seeker of Wholeness
Tony's research on the intersection of faith in suicide prevention is leading new paradigms of care on the subject. As a former Army Chaplain, he was dismayed by the under-utilization of the Chaplain Corps in counseling soldiers and airmen who were going through suicide ideation.
The loss of our essential balance, what he calls Whole Essence, is caused in part by experiencing PTSD and other traumas. These events, as well as the incredible increase in addiction of all types, has drained our reservoir of spiritual resiliency. Unfortunately, most therapy is focused on psychological or pharmaceutical therapeutic methods while soul recovery is left out of the healing process.
His groundbreaking research Every Life Matters to God has been downloaded on five continents, thirty-eight countries and 19 institutions including the Navy Network Information Center, the DoD Network Information Center, the National Health Service, the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Homeland Security.
"What I'm asking is... are we happier? Is the world fundamentally a better place because of science and technology? We shop at home, we surf the Web, and at the same time we feel emptier, lonelier, and more cut off from each other than at any other time in human history... "
