Learning from bees: diversify your life to become stronger
Did you know that the honeybee's immune system depends more on protein diversity than quantity?
"Experiments and observations have revealed how carefully the honeybee’s immune system is maintained through diet: a lack of diverse protein sources reduces the ability of its immune system to function and increases the honeybee’s susceptibility to disease." (asknature.org)
How can you diversify the inputs you receive every day to become stronger this week?
Some suggestions:
🐝Consuming content as a default spare time-filler can impoverish your life when you could create or make memories instead. Think about a creative activity that you could do instead of "scrolling" or "Netflixing": painting? puzzles? board games? dancing? scrapbooking?
🐝Do you always eat the same food? Try a food you have never tried before and record your experience.
🐝Go out for a walk and pretend your eyes are a camera. "Photograph" the diversity you notice in nature with your eyes. What does that tell you?
