Select the Words that become
part of Your Life Moments Seed Collection…
| Step
One: Preparing the Ground…The Seeds for Living |
Select
the words that become part of your Seeds
for Living collection. There
are a variety of words that help fulfill our lives
and provide the roots to growth. |
| Example: The seeds I have selected are abundance, joy, and serenity. |
| |
| Step
Two: Planting the Seeds |
Now
that you’ve identified your seeds, its time
to plant them appropriately to your lifestyle. Create
your own definition for each seed you have selected. |
Example: The definitions for my seeds are as follows: I cherish my abundance of strengths, positive people, and accomplishments. It’s important for me to be able to laugh every day and find joy even in the little things. I have decorated my home to reflect calmness and serenity; a haven of comfortable seating and relaxation free of clutter. This greatly reduces my stress. |
| |
| Step
Three: Blooming |
Find
a symbol that represents each seed for living. They
can be flowers, people, pictures, objects, metaphors,
or anything else that could be a symbol. In your
lifestyle haven, place the symbols around you so
that the blooming can begin. |
Example: Abundance and joy are represented by family pictures in my home office. Serenity is found in small vases of flowers in my bathroom, sitting room, and dining room. In addition, serenity is also found in the artwork of flowers, parks, and gardens throughout my home. |
| |
| Step
Four: Maintaining Your Personal Garden |
Keeping
your garden nourished and flourishing can sometimes
be
challenging. Weeding out the problems and providing
a watering can of nourishment (see the Blooms
of Esteem
sheet) is something that will enable you
to maintain your personal growth. |
Example: One of the ways I maintain my personal garden is by being self-disciplined, which is one of the Blooms of Esteem. My self-discipline in bringing abundance, joy, and serenity to my lifestyle greatly reduces my stress. |
