Clearing clutter is such a hot topic these days! And while many people find great freedom in clearing their clutter, I want to suggest that clutter is not the real issue – it’s all that surrounds us that has the capacity to either support or undermine us in the life we want to live. Everything is energy, that’s why clutter can be so draining because it’s like having tons of little energy units that keep calling out, “Hello… over here…didn’t you want to do something with me? … Don’t forget about me, I’m sure I’m important because you’ve kept me around for so long… Hey, treat me like the special thing that I am! Engage me!” You know, something like that — gives me a headache as I write it. So please, by all means, organize your desk, recycle what you no longer need/use and have a system for incoming mail.
This simple act will free up your energy to get to the things that really matter to you. What is your heart really longing for – yes, that dream or desire that has been kept at bay by your non-functioning closet or bathroom that offends you every time you enter. What are you really wanting, that you can’t face because you believe you couldn’t possibly have it?
Engage in that inquiry, and soon you will be on the path to aligning your Home with who you are, and how you really want to Live.
“for our homes are a reflection of our psyches – the way you choose to decorate it speaks reams about the way you view the world; your hopes and aspirations; your deepest insecurities and fears.”
Spirit of The Home, Jane Alexander
