Sun is essential for plants to thrive. Yet, too much sun can kill.

Water is essential to life. Yet, too much water can kill.

When it comes to the emotional world, there are vital energies. Some we may need a lot of. Some we may need only sparingly.

Love
Connection
Recognition and Appreciation
Touch
Support
Safety
…and many, many others.

Alas, we humans do not come with tags that say "keep in full sunlight" or "best in shady, damp soil." Yet, our needs vary across a broad spectrum.

It's a magical misconception to believe that all humans have identical emotional needs. Some flourish in solitude with rare touch. Others cannot thrive without daily co-creating in person, snuggles, and sex.

The concept that we exist in a human ecosystem acknowledges we vary from one another… even as we share the same sun and drink water from the same planet. Our diversity is indeed a strength, especially when seen through the eyes of an emotional ecologist who understands that synergies are everywhere — if we look for them.
