About

I have come to recognize that much like plants and other organic, living things, our minds require consistent care and nurturing. Like plants, we show signs of distress due to changes in environment, unmet needs, or trauma. While plants may outwardly show distress with shriveled leaves, human signs of distress often start internally. They affect our thought process, level of functioning and quality of life. However, comparable to plants, humans show a great propensity towards resilience. It is shown that with a little guidance and care we can learn to adapt and even thrive in our environment.
