In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, instant yeast, salt, chia seeds, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
In a separate small bowl, mix the warm water (should be about 110°F or 43°C) with honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
Slowly pour the honey-water mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the olive oil and mix well until a sticky dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Transfer it to the prepared loaf pan, shaping it evenly.
Cover the loaf pan with a towel and let the dough rise again for another 20-30 minutes, or until it has puffed up.
Optional: Sprinkle additional seeds (chia, flax, pumpkin, sunflower) on top of the dough for garnish and texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
