We all experience change throughout life. Some great and some small, some planned, and some totally by surprise. Some changes seem to reoccur and come around like the changing seasons of the Earth. A wise sage once said the only certain thing in life is change. How we respond to change begins in our minds. We need to…
Be Willing
Be willing and lighthearted as spring blossoms
and sweet as the flower’s nectar.
Be grounded as a sheltering tree
with roots growing deeply in the Earth.
Be as bendable as young branches
dancing and swaying in unexpected breezes.
Be dependable as the oldest of branches,
strong enough to hold a child on a summer swing.
Be willing to release what no longer serves you
as autumn leaves fall from the tree.
Be willing to rest, recharge, and restore your energy
as a wise tree does all winter long.
Be willing to challenge yourself by growing in new ways
and in all seasons of life.
Be willing to embrace change
and believe that come what may—you can adapt and thrive…
if you are willing.

As we travel through this life on Earth, we pass through seasons of change. Some are spread over our whole lifetime, and others seem to come and go throughout each year. When we consciously align our lives to the changing of the Earth’s seasons, we can experience increased peace and balance.
We experience a season of releasing things long held dear to us as a tree lets go of its beautiful fall leaves. We let those things go because they no longer serve us, much like cast-off children’s toys.
After releasing, it’s a good time to rest. To take time to relax, reflect, reset, replenish, recover, restore, and rejuvenate, just as the Earth does all winter long.
Even as adults, we sometimes begin again—learning as a child—new and exciting things that spark new growth in our lives, like the Earth’s spring season. Don’t be afraid to return to the beginner’s path. Be flexible as the young Linden branches as you plan your future. Be open to learning, new ideas, new beliefs, and new ways of doing.
After the learning and seeds have sprouted in our minds, it’s time to put them to use. Time to multiply our growth, just like a garden accelerates its growth in the summertime. Summers seem busier, and the Earth appears much more active and vibrant.
Whatever season you are in right now, lean into it. Be willing to embrace the changes and know that this season will close and a new one will open, bringing fresh insights and experiences to enrich your life.

The deciduous Linden Tree (Tilia family) is native throughout most of the temperate areas of the Northern Hemisphere and can grow to be 65 to 130 feet tall with heart-shaped leaves. The European species are known as the Linden tree and in North America as Basswood. They’re commonly called lime trees In Britain and Ireland but are not related to any citrus tree, especially not to a tart yet refreshing lime.
Its fragrant, nectar-producing flowers begin to bloom in June and are an important honey plant for beekeepers. The nectar of this lovely flower is very sweet, and you may not even need to add sweetener to Linden flower tea. This flower is known in herbal medicine (1) to calm anxious feelings, reduce inflammation and pain, lower blood pressure, and assist with productive coughing to reduce throat and chest congestion from the common cold, soothe the digestive tract, and promote restful sleep.
