There are many shapes, sizes and styles of gardens and each need tailored care to their own specific needs. Keeping the garden&nbsp;healthy, flourishing and in tune with the wider environment needs constant attention.On a personal level we can relate this garden analogy to our minds. How much attention are you paying to how healthy your mind is? Do you do a few overhauls a year or some steady tending&nbsp;week by week?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/jpuDyGgIeh0?list=PLZwaG5do7TJ2V_O_VKL2YqLNXEKj66WMl\" target=\"_blank\">Dr&nbsp;<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/jpuDyGgIeh0?list=PLZwaG5do7TJ2V_O_VKL2YqLNXEKj66WMl\" target=\"_blank\">Rick Hanson<\/a>&nbsp;uses the garden analogy as a useful metaphor to explore how we might build healthy minds to support us in our life today:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>What would you like to&nbsp;<em>let be<\/em>?<br \/>\nWhat needs weeding? (<em>let go<\/em>)<br \/>\nWhat extra nourishment and sowing do we need to provide? (<em>let in<\/em>)<\/div>\n<div>How we perform our day to day work and how we experience our life is very much driven by how healthy our minds are- are the weeds out of control or are we feeling truly nourished and happy?This analogy obviously also works with organisations too, how is your ecosystem thriving? What might you need to GROW?<\/p>\n<p>Backed up by the latest research on neuroplasticity, taking in the good, mind training, kindness and compassion I can work with individuals, teams and organisations to help to add a bit of fertiliser and\/or help you tend a few weeds.
