Our roots entrench themselves deeper through inner work.
Our branches extend themselves out further through outer engagement.
If you find yourself uneasy, ridden with anxiety, like your standing on unstable ground…
It’s root work that’s needed.
Don’t fool yourself into thinking that something more is needed from the outer (money, status, travel, etc). It’ll only end up making you feel more unstable by further extending out your branches without having any effect on the depth of your roots.
Proportional is what makes the tree stand firm.
We move up by going down. And the more we go down… the higher up we can go. Go too high without enough down… and we’ll tip and crash. Find the balance in up and down and stable, calm, secure, is where we’ll be found.
