Eric Lyleson,<\/strong> MA is a psychologist in private practice on Sydney\u2019s Northern Beaches.<\/p>

For over thirty years he has been personally and professionally exploring which psychotherapeutic and spiritual practices are most useful in helping people free themselves from psychological suffering and awakening to their full human and spiritual potential.\u00a0 He works from the perspective that most psychological problems are signs that people are out of sync with their evolving self. Depression, anxiety and addictive behaviour resolve when people listen to what they really need and want.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

He passes on this wisdom in his book\u00a0Essential Wholeness<\/span>,\u00a0Integral Psychotherapy, Spiritual Awakening and the Enneagram\u00a0<\/em>

\"I have been privileged to know Eric Lyleson for 18 years. During this time he has inspired me as a trainer, workshop presenter and supervisor for my private practice as a psychotherapist and relationship counsellor.

“Eric Lyleson somehow manages to distil a lifetime of experience, spiritual practice and psychological learning into a very accessible, comprehensive model of human psychology and behaviour. Not since Ken Wilber have I read such a concise and useful synthesis of psychology, spirituality and ecology. I find it incredibly useful in my work as a therapist and as a guide on my own spiritual journey.”\u00a0Richard Chambers, PhD clinical psychologist, co-author of ‘Mindful Learning’ and ‘Mindful Relationships’<\/em><\/p>

Eric Lyleson has written a beautiful and helpful book on living life as a journey of awakening.\u00a0 I highly recommend it!”\u00a0Stephen Gilligan, PhD, author of ‘A Courage to Love’<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
