When Elizabeth Colburn-Moraites first opened her company it was called ECM Om Arts. She worked primarily as an artist and meditation teacher. Over the years Elizabeth added healing modalities to her practice. She was moving away from being a showing and selling artist. Liz knew she wanted to re-name the company so that it would befit the change, but what to? After she returned from her Sabbatical to Nepal in 2018, she saw the direction that she wanted to move towards. She spent a few months working on the name and met with a designer for a new logo. She finally rolled out The Om Approach in early 2019.

The Om Approach reflects the experience had by the client. It's about returning the individual to their state of Om. So what is Om? Om is unity, oneness, healing, peace, and love. May we help you to find you state of Om. You were there the day you were born. On the day you were born, you were nothing but love and saw no separation between yourself and others.
