My dad always used to talk about "weeding the garden" - and he wasn't just talking about our backyard. "There's a garden inside you, Marie," he'd say, "And sometimes, you just have to weed it." As a kid, I'd roll my eyes. But now I realize he was dropping some serious wisdom about our inner world. Think about it. Our minds and bodies are like gardens. We've got to tend to them, nurture the good stuff, and yeah - sometimes we've gotta pull out those pesky weeds of negative thoughts or unhealthy habits. It's not always easy. Trust me, I've had my fair share of overgrown inner gardens. But every time I take a moment to 'weed' - whether that's through meditation, journaling, or just a good cry - I feel lighter, clearer, more ME. And there’s science behind that — the more I can encourage my body into the parasympathetic nervous system, the more oxytocin I’m naturally going to produce and the more my body will thrive, heal and drop into surrender. When's the last time you tended to your inner garden? What weeds might need pulling? What flowers are you ready to let bloom? As a kid my dad would always pull this line when we’d made a mistake, but as an adult I believe a little daily tending goes a long way. If you're ready for some serious inner-gardening tools, my Feminine Hormone Biohacking Bundle is like miracle grow for your wellbeing. All of the hacks to increase oxytocin and balance cortisol with nutritional tweaks, lifestyle shifts and some feel-good meditation exercises too. And it's only 22.00!!! It's my gift to you. :) I'll leave the link in the comments!

We're asking Nature some big old questions about life, work & beyond, inspired by the problems & potentials of the people & teams we work with. This week, let's focus on understanding WHY Nature is good for our mental and physical health. Alongside coaching approaches shared in sessions, we believe Nature is 'Where the Mind Grows,' so we always look to Nature's wisdom on these sticky issues! So here is what Nature has to say: Reduce Stress: Time in Nature is shown to reduce cortisol and adrenaline, the bodies chemical/hormones that show up when we are stressed, anxious or overwhelmed. Helps us live longer: Back in 2016 a Harvard study - amongst others over the years - showed that people with access to or who lived near Nature were likely to live longer than those deprived of Nature throughout their lives. Space to refocus - A theory called attention restoration theory, shows that the time spent out in Nature can help to clear our mind and support us to a more focused state. Meaning we can return to work or life tasks and activities with a heightened sense of energy and attention. Sensory Stimulation: Research has shown that the sound of birdsong, a cool breeze on our cheeks, or the phytoncides and 'essential oils' of the forest can help our sensory regulation. Grounding - Nature can help us feel emotionally and physically grounded and support our problems and issues to feel 'less big.' Many clients have shared with me how taking in the vastness of a forest or ecosystem reminds them of possibilities and potential (an example of ecopsychology) - a time when feeling smaller can actually be helpful rather than negative. Placing our feet to the soil is also known to help us 'earth'. The air we breathe: We seem to forget that the air we breathe is purified and made safe by Trees and Plants Nature would also like to remind us that it prioritises health and well-being - aka LIFE- as a NUMERO UNO function and goal in design, habit, and habitat too. It seems to be working pretty well, with 3,8 billion years of evolution and adaptation. What would you ask Nature? #nature #asknature #health #wellbeing #mentalhealth #personalwellbeing #thrive #happy

UAE licensed Integrative Well-Being Coach | Corporate wellness | On a mission to guide 1 M individuals on the path of well-being & longevity
Have you ever tried hugging a tree? Tree Hugging might sound like hippy or taking 'care of the environment' a bit far - but did you know there are genuine health benefits to the practice? I have always been a nature lover, I love to visit places like forests, parks & mountains. Hugging a tree has improved my physical, mental, and spiritual well-being! Hugging a tree has increased my creativity! (Here's my experience of hugging trees!) Whenever I see (& hug) any tree, it reminds me of- - Making me more connected with nature - My childhood time playing with trees - Making me feel calm & composed - Making me feel more energetic While researching, I discovered the scientific benefits of tree-hugging. Here's why is hugging a tree good for you: ➙ Hugging a tree increases levels of the hormone oxytocin. ➙ This hormone is responsible for feeling calm and emotional bonding. ➙ When hugging a tree, serotonin and dopamine hormones make you happier. ➙ It is important to use this “free” space of a forest we were given by nature to heal ourselves holistically. If you're ever feeling stressed or disconnected, consider finding a tree in a park or your neighborhood. Take a moment to connect with its energy, and see if it helps you feel more grounded and centered. #liveAMedicineFreeLife #huggingATree #wellness
