4 Ways to Nourish Growth Within You

You Are Like a Seed

A seed takes in nourishment – water and oxygen – and when conditions are right, it opens and becomes something new. The seed opens from the inside, in the dark, in complete trust. You too open from the inside, in complete trust, moving from dark to light.

Why does a seed open? It has outgrown its space. It needs to become and express a new and bigger version of itself. Why do you open? You have outgrown your space. You need to become and express a new and bigger version of yourself. It is an act of love.

Take in the nourishment you require, swell and expand toward your full potential, and when the conditions are right, emerge as a new you. Then put your roots down to ground you, and grow up and out into your full expression.

  • Are you outgrowing the way you are being and doing?
  • Are you willing to open to be something greater?
  • Will you trust that you will emerge a better version of yourself?
  • Will you nourish yourself to support your expansion into your full potential?

4 Amare Ways to Grow the Seeds Within You

1. Trust when you know. When you’ve outgrown your space in work or life, you’ll know it deep within. Try not to resist that knowing, and trust that it’s for your greatest good, even if it’s uncomfortable.

2. Don’t force the opening. Seeds open when they are nourished and ready. If you get impatient, simply tell yourself, “This is happening in its own way.” Try to be an observer of the unfolding.

3. Nourish the seed. Do three things every day that nourish the germinating seeds – meditating, making music, nature walks, being with friends – you choose. Consider a little gardening as one of the activities.

4. Prepare for rooting. Make a list of “rooting” activities that will support and stabilize that which is new, when it emerges. These will likely involve people, processes, and places.
