The Violin, You, and Landscape Design

“Aidan, let it ring!”

These were the precise words my son’s teacher spoke to him as his finger searched for the A note on his E string. Laurie’s statement was an invitation for Aidan to listen to, and allow the natural beauty and lush overtones of the violin to ring forth and resonate within his body and soul. 

Well, that may be a bit of a stretch, but note this: when a violinist plays in tune with her instrument, the violin naturally resonates with brilliance, clarity and beauty. In other words, it shines. The violin is always ready; ready to soar, to dance, to sing, to cry, to lament – always ready to reveal its brilliance to the world. This brilliance is in its very DNA, for this is “who” the violin is and why it was created.

And you, you are like the violin.

You are created to shine: to resonate and vibrate with the energy of life and song.

But as we get weighed down with the pressures and disappointments of life, we begin to lose sight of this truth because we forget who we are; we forget to listen to, and, trust our true self.

Unitas Project works from the belief that all people, like the violin, are created to thrive. Therefore it's our intention to cultivate clarity for our clients through landscape design so they can thrive in harmony with their environment. 

What if…

What if spending more time in your garden with those you love cultivated a deeper sense of congruence and connection? 

What if watching a humming bird gracefully move from one plant to another captured your attention and filled your heart with wonder? 

What if your landscape played a pivotal role in the rejuvenation of the environment, and that of your body and soul? 

Sometimes it simply takes the right environment to awaken the brilliance within us. And maybe, just maybe, in the right conditions, you’ll begin to hear your true self ring again.

Until next time.

Thrive in Harmony.
