The Cycle of Becoming : Growth Through Renewal

The Cycle of Becoming : Growth Through Renewal

I recently was sent a YouTube clip of Rabbi Dr. Abraham Twerski explaining the way a lobster sheds its shell. It offered a quiet reminder that growth often arrives disguised as discomfort. Stories have a way of doing that—threading themselves into our lives, waiting for the right moment to whisper their wisdom.⁣ The lobster, a soft-bodied creature, lives within a rigid shell. That shell is its armour, its protection. But there’s a catch—the shell doesn’t grow.

Infinite Adaptability, Absolute Groundedness

Infinite Adaptability, Absolute Groundedness

Every time we practice Vedic Meditation, we increase our ability to adapt to changes in demand or expectations. This is important when we consider that all that is ever happening is change. The process of evolution is a result of progressive change. Without change, there is no progress. 🦍🚶🏽‍♀️In order to not only survive, but also to grow and flourish with change, being able to adapt and stay grounded is vital.

Or is your locus of control focused internally, embracing challenges as opportunities for growth and understanding your power in making things happen?
