Nature and our immediate environment can teach us so much; if only we notice and listen to what those whispers of guidance say.
Iona is a tiny island south of the island of Mull in the Inner Hebrides, an archipelago on the west coast of Scotland. It really is a stunning environment with crystal blue water and white sand beaches. If it wasn’t for the grey clouds, drizzle and whipping winds, you’d think I was on a Greek Island somewhere!
I’m standing on the edge of a cliff in strong winds to demonstrate why it’s vital to stay flexible.
So watch the video this week to learn:
- What inspires my video’s ideas from week to week
- Why having a flexible approach to life makes EVERYTHING easier
- What we can learn simply by observing our natural environment
- Why it’s good to be like Bamboo and Grass

So that’s why staying flexible in our approach to life it vital. We need to be flexible in the way we think, in our businesses, in our finances, in our relationships, in our living situations and in our opinions. If we are too rigid in our approach to life then we snap when something unexpected happens.
Staying physically flexible is a great starting point to bring the attitude of flexibility into our lives. Doing yoga is a way that I love to stay physically flexible….what do you do to keep your body strong and flexible?
Staying flexible actually helps us to be more relaxed because we trust that whatever decision needs to be made in the moment, we are flexible enough to go with it instead of going into fear.
So, be like bamboo, stick your roots firmly in earth and bend and flow (the feminine way) with what pops up in your life!
From the Inner Hebrides in Scotland,
Keep Creating & Connecting….

Loved this video Jane! I am totally relating to the need to flow with the wind.
Thanks Lauren! I’ve found it’s a lot harder trying to run into the wind than just flow with it!
Wow, Jane this was a great video. I enjoyed very much the message and the view from the top. Thanks for the reminder. Keeping flexible these days is vital to my sanity, so it’s good to hear it from you.
Hugs, Alex
Thanks Alex, glad this post acted as a reminder for you! The timing of writing this is actually amazing for myself as I’m having to stay super flexible right now too….life has indeed changed direction as swiftly as the wind!!
