There is a mirror that exists between people and the living world, and the Earth is a parent mirror that never forsakes us ๐ If you look closely, you can see all the ways nature reflects your intrinsic goodness and belonging. If you grew up without this validation from your caretakers, you can connect with nature as an adult to foster self-love and compassion, and heal trauma patterns.
Modern-day culture typically urges you to look outside of yourself to find healing- especially when taking steps to preserve the environment. Although creating policies that protect the planet is important, the transformation of a people to one that cares for the Earth starts within. As you do the inner work to develop self-love, this extends into your community and the world to generate significant ecological, social, and global change. Every time you heal your trauma, the planet does too.
