Bring enlightenment to your environment.
Most self-help studies stress the need to create a perfect
environment to be able to live a "successful" life. From the
most famous celebrities to the most celebrated politicians, and
all of us mere mortals in between! To be truly happy, therefore
fulfilled and so able to share and give to our fellow humans,
environment is crucial.
Whether it's a city street, a rural farm or a Hollywood stage,
finding the environment that suits your character can be a
lifelong search, so the journey must be enjoyed.
To be truly successful, happy, wealthy and wise, draw on all
things natural around you and create a stress-free environment.
Get in touch with nature and re-assure yourself that the natural
world will carry on no matter what. Draw from the creativity of
a flower growing, a vegetable being formed, insects oblivious to
what's on TV tonight, and water flowing over naturally formed
rocks.
Try an experiment... spend a full half hour or more alone in a
forest or next to the sea, or failing that, a park where you
won't be disturbed. Make sure you feel safe from wild animals
and humans (!) - and just let your mind wander, allow your
thoughts to flow freely, call it meditation time if you need an
excuse to spend some time on your own. Just enjoy and allow your
thoughts to wander free and your imagination to leap into
fantasies if you feel the need.
Draw from the enlightened natural energies around you and absorb
the power... Got it? Great - now go home and create your own
little bit of nature in your world.
Advancements in technology means food can be grown in a very
small space indoors under lights if necessary. So, not having a
garden isn't an excuse anymore. To fit an indoor growing system
does require a little cash so you can always use that as an
excuse if you want to find one!. However, the materials and
set-up of a basic hydroponics system is little more than the
cost of a few regular garden tools, so the choice is yours.
A balcony or roof garden can be used to grow all sorts of
container plants. Most veggies and flowers will grow in
containers and once set up, there is little maintenance and lots
of time to enjoy the plants and absorb the creativity of it all.
If you have a garden available, the choices are so vast you can
get lost in the whole garden thing. A lawn is easy and needs
mowing every week or so, but apart from the exercise, this type
of garden isn't fulfilling it's potential. Grow some flowers,
vegetables or herbs. Create a theme or build a water feature.
Plan your garden before you start, then you'll be able to iron
out any problems before they stress you out. Work out what you
want to plant, what you need, and organise your time so you can
spend a little time every day with your natural
environment....enlightenment will follow naturally!
