NO MUD NO LOTUS
I love the Zen saying “No Mud No Lotus” meaning beauty and growth can arise from difficult or challenging experiences. It’s about the impermanence of life, showing the struggles and hardships we face are temporary, and they can ultimately lead to personal growth and transformation.
The lotus flower grows in muddy and murky water. Without the mud, the lotus would not be able to grow and reach its full potential.
Similarly, in our lives, we may encounter obstacles, challenges, and even painful experiences. These difficulties provide opportunities for growth, learning, and change. By embracing these challenges we can become stronger, wiser, and more resilient.
“No Mud No Lotus” encourages us to shift our perspective on difficult experiences. Instead of seeing them as purely negative, we can view them as opportunities for growth.
My book, Walking Back To Happiness: The Secret To Alcohol-Free Living & Well-Being and my coaching course Reroot Yourself shows how you can massively improve your mental and physical well-being, through re-connecting with the natural world, walking outdoors, watching sunrises, forest bathing and being more mindful about the changes in nature that are happening all around you.
