self nurture

The issue of self nurture often comes up when we are working with clients and how to explain this has been a bit of a challenge.

How would you say you nurture yourself?


Often we think of nurturing as pampering ourselves with a facial, manicure or new hairstyle.


While these things may feel wonderful in the moment are they truly nurturing our souls?


To explain this more I'll use an analogy of a plant in a dark cupboard that I heard recently. Imagine you go into the cupboard and wash or trim the leaves of the plant (the equivalent of a facial or haircut), and tell it it looks beautiful -  this is pampering.
What if instead you were to take it out of the cupboard and into the sunshine, water it and maybe repot it in some nutrient dense soil - this is nurture, and this is what we need to do for ourselves.


So this week maybe see what you truly do in your life to nurture yourself.

In health, harmony & happiness
