As humans, we ARE nature. Yet we often feel so far removed from nature in our current loud and fast world that sometimes we forget that we are made of some of the same genetic stuff as most other living organisms. Just as plants and animals instinctively know how to survive and thrive (two very different goals), humans also have innate and shaped tendencies that inform the living conditions we most prefer for our optimal growth. Plants and animals don't judge their own worth or their ways of thriving based on OTHER plants or animals. They don't take selfies or share posts in an effort to get a positive response. They just do their best each day to live based on their Essential Nature - their genetic and environmental needs. Yet we, as humans, have been taught to question or even abandon some of our inborn and learned preferences, so we end up living in ways that are unfulfilled and unbalanced. By first accepting that we are unique and that what we need to thrive is different than our parents or our partner or our friends, we can start to discover the environment and nutrients that help us move past self-judgment to a mindset that truly helps us to find contentment.
Learn how the basic rules of plant survival can be applied to our place in the world, and how this powerful template can help us connect to our Essential Nature and finally make the choices, unapologetically and from a place of self-acceptance, that align with who we are.
