The first time someone told me what I was going through was “just a season,” I got quite annoyed! How could what I was feeling be just a season?

The more I sat with my cancer diagnosis (and some of the other struggles I’ve faced), I came to realise that they were right – that particular season had been “just a season or a series of seasons.”

What if we approached life from a perspective of understanding that each season would teach us lessons on strength, endurance, growth, faith, and trust? Would we conduct ourselves differently?

No matter what adversity life serves you, I’m here to tell you that it is just a season. The question is, how do we navigate those seasons?

First we need a road map. We need to understand what is happening during each of our internal emotional seasons: autumn, winter, spring, and summer. Thankfully, we have nature’s beautiful examples to help us see our internal seasons.

Once we have clarity of these seasons, we are then better equipped to handle whatever life throws our way.

Let’s take a look at summer and what she has to teach us.

Awwww… the season of summer. I hear you breathe a sigh of relief mixed with joy and excitement.

Summer is the season of abundance. It’s a time when we reap what we’ve planted. The flowers are in full bloom and when plants disperse their gifts.

It is a time of celebration, of joy and happiness. Lots of sunshine and warm days.

Summer is such a glorious time to enjoy life at it’s peak.

And even though summer days oozes with laughter and good times, we have formulated a Flourish Blend tea and essential oil to help celebrate this joyous season. You can find them here: evolvingwomen.co
