Lessons from the garden: sustaining yourself in every way

Coming up to summer solstice, I am back in the garden, looking at what I shall be harvesting this year... There's still time to plant a few more seeds, and give the plants that are struggling some extra help...

I'm doing the same in my personal life... still weeding & planting, sowing and watering, harvesting and planning...

This week, it was pointed out to me that although circumstances may change, life is not lived in stops and starts, but in a long sequence of events... much like the continuous turning of the seasons...
I liked that...

Makes gardening in a sustainable way even more appealing too...

I guess if you want to sustain yourself well, you need to identify your requirements for vitality, physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually.... and put in the work to cultivate, harvest, and process them as best you can...
