A Courageous Messenger
Did you know that an eagle's vision is eight times stronger than ours, enabling them to see great distances and even beneath the surface of water? They also possess profound strength and agility.
Life looks different from an aerial view, and during challenging times we can learn from the eagle by taking a step back to expand our view and see the big picture. By looking at the past and present objectively, we can begin to let go of restricting patterns and courageously fly towards a more healthy and balanced future.
