WE ARE NATURE AND NATURE IS US
Companion planting is the careful and precise placement of plants, in order to encourage growth. Certain plants work better being placed next to some varieties and species over others, and vice versa. By placing plants that are good companions next to each other, they can help each other thrive, attracting the right kind of bees, or having a cohesive root network, so that they aren’t competing with each other for nutrients and water.
Just like plants, we need to surround ourselves with the right kind of people, in order to grow and thrive. As the saying goes, you are a sum of the five people closest to you. Think about the five people you choose to surround yourself with the most. Are these five people your best possible ‘companion plants’? Do they work cohesively with you and help you to grow into the best person you can be. Do they nourish you? Do they attract their own version of ‘bees’ that also align with you?
Similarly, who chooses to keep you as one of their five closest people? Are you the best possible companion to help them thrive and grow? Do you nourish their roots? As humans, we are far more connected to nature than we know. Just like we mimic plants, our moods can also reflect the seasons.
Warm summer nights can make us feel alive, relaxed and calm. Cold, dark, winter days can make us feel suffocated, slow and often sad. There’s a reason that they say fresh air is good for your health. Being outside, surrounding yourself with nature and practising grounding helps us to recentre. Swimming in the ocean refreshes us, helping us to feel cleansed, and resetting our bodies.
Nature analogies are something that I reference when working one on one with my clients all the time. It’s truly amazing how our lives reflect those of our natural surroundings so clearly. We are nature, and nature is us. Our lives are so aligned, so intertwined with our natural surroundings. I encourage you to take a walk today if you are able to, to find some grass to lie down on and get back to your most grounded self.
