The Slow Death Within: Identifying and Eliminating Your Personal ‘Salt’

Understanding the Chlorophyll of the Soul and Why Removing Negative Influences is Vital for Personal Growth

Do you know how to kill a tree, without getting caught?

Random question I know. But humour me.

It’s actually way easier than you think.

No axe required.

You simply get lots of salt and put it around the tree (or drill it into it, for faster results).

The sodium in the salt will prevent a tree’s flow of potassium and magnesium, both of which are vital ingredients in the making of chlorophyll.

The salt itself absorbs water, preventing the tree from doing so.

The lack of chlorophyll will start turning the leaves brown and it will begin to wither up until it eventually kills the tree.

The more salt you use, the quicker it’ll happen.

The salt ultimately prevents the tree from growing by blocking out what it needs for growth, and brings about the slow death from within.

So, what’s the point of knowing this?
