You’re a REALIABLE DOER
EARTH Archetype
All About Your Archetype:
As an Earth Archetype, you're reliable, loyal, committed, and grounded. People trust you and know they can lean on you for help. You're super organized and take care of the foundational needs first, which makes for a solid platform for growth. You make calculated decisions and set clear expectations.
When you're low energy and out of balance, you can be stubborn and bullish when you don't get your way. You might think you have all the answers and that you don't need help which limits your ability to seek help and be flexible. You may block your emotions which inhibits your ability to connect with others and express what you need. Physically, you may be prone to colon, bladder, or low back issues, or feel sluggish or inflamed at times.
KEY STRATEGIES FOR THE EARTH ARCHETYPE
As an Earth Archetype, you can build on your grounded wisdom by integrating qualities of air, fire, and water elements into your daily life. To optimize your reliable, loyal, and organized nature, try these five strategies and customized meditation:
Nature is medicine. Spend time near meadows, orchards, ocean waves or rivers to stimulate spontaneity, flow and rhythm.
Spice it up. Seek new adventures (perhaps a walk with no specific destination) to expand your zone of comfort.
Get nonlinear. To enable alternative ways of thinking and unblock old patterns, move in ways that are multidirectional, like dancing, martial arts, or other art-based practices.
Expand your mind. Join groups and practice following others to stimulate flexibility.
Color outside the lines. Adopt a new artistic hobby like painting, pottery, or flower arranging to increase creativity and improve problem-solving skills.
Don’t go without breaks
Avoid eating the same foods
Don’t just do one type of exercise
