The Power of Flowers

Growing up in a pretty much male dominated culture, I have always underestimated the power of flowers. I used to think it's a waste of money to buy flowers to only take care of them and even so they will die in a short period time. I didn't see the practicality and the meaning of flowers. I used to tell all the boys, "don't ever bring me flowers, bring me chocolates instead, at least I can eat them".

It was just recently that understand the power of flowers and how they change vibration of the environment.

So what's their super power?

They transform the atmosphere of my van, uplift the energy in such a tiny living space. My van smells amazing with these lilies and peonies. It refreshes the air and bring a sense of coziness of home. Even they're short lived but their power is tremendous in how they change the whole environment around them and in return you're benefit from that high vibrational energy.

Your living space is a reflection and an expression of you, if you don't feel at "home" with your physical environment, then do you feel at home with in yourself? Ponder on that for a bit. Look at your environment and your surrounding, do you see the reflection of who you are?

It takes time to transform yourself from the inside out, but it doesn't take much time to uplift your environment with little details that can help you to tap into that higher vibration in time. As much as we reflect our energy into the surrounding, we also absorb what in our surroundings, so surround yourself with what uplift your energy and spirit. I discuss quite a bit about energy work in my book through my grow journey.

Yes, it can be hectic living a nomadic life and can be tricky to keep everything clean and tidy in a van, but it doesn’t mean it’s not possible. Hopefully, this post will distort the idea of clumsy and messy van life that one may hold in their mind. It does take discipline but once you get it in a routine, you can have a beautiful home on the road.

So, what are your favorite flowers you normally take home? How do you feel with their present in your living space?
