De-Clutter for Freedom

Junk and clutter can take over your life. We may have a tendency to keep things always thinking we may use them another day, and all these unused items take over our homes, our space and our lives. When items overtake our personal space they can become a block for anything new to come into your life.  Stuff holds energy, be it bad or good, this energy holds a pattern from the past which is not all positive and can weigh us down energetically without us even realizing it.  Clearing out stuff and either giving it away or simply throwing them away can clear your soul.

  I grew up in a home full of clutter, as a child I did not realize this was abnormal, as a young adult I began to feel embarrassed and blocked by all that surrounded me, still not clearly understanding that the clutter caused me great stress and anxiety which limited my Joy and productivity. Many individuals hold on to the past out of fear, out of need for love or insecurity, each instance is different.

Fast forward to today and I have learned great ways to take great care of myself and be clutter free and live free and Light.
Take steps to attack one space at a time, do not hesitate to throw away anything you have not needed or used in more than 6 months, chances are you won't miss them.

 Here are some of my strategies for easy clearing of crap:

  1. Make a plan
  2. Take on one small space at a time, baby steps are easier.
  3. Ask someone for support, friend, lover, cleaning service.
  4. If the task is too large call Junk removal, sometimes they will remove stuff for free.
  5. If you have not used it in 6 months, get rid of it.
  6. Give to charity, many charities offer online pick-up scheduling. (it feels good to give)
  7. Do not overwhelm yourself with large projects.
  8. If you have an office, get rid of paper clutter.
  9. Organize drawers, kitchen and closets, you will feel so good.
  10. Remember, less is more, you can't take it with you.
Love & Light 💕🌞

Stop Giving A Crap

Worrying about what other people think is a dead end. Other people's opinions of us do not matter in the reality of life, these misconceptions are learned behaviors which can be unlearned. Consuming our daily life around the approval, thoughts and wishes of others can fill your life and self worth .  Filling your head with only doubt. I have been guilty of giving a crap way too much in my life, because I was taught to worry about what people think, it had become a way of life and seemed like there was no other way. "Oh my, what will the neighbors think....?"  Through years of working on myself using efficient tools and techniques I am finally free, well, ( I occasionally fall off the wagon, but catch myself and get right back on track!)  By changing my thoughts and destructive pattern of not loving myself enough and not listening to my gut (aka-intuition.)  Sometimes stuff looks good on paper but is really challenging when you attempt to apply it to your daily...

I Matter

Yes! I said it, I don't care what you think of me. I don't care what you say about me either, and I will tell you why.  As many of us in our childhood I was conditioned to put other's first. The "people" mattered most of all, later I wondered who the fuck these people really were and what they had to do with my life anyway. What strangers, neighbors, relatives and just about everyone else said or thought had importance, my voice did not, what I felt was always pushed down.  My voice was stifled and my feelings ignored, now this is not a "poor me" story, but a story of growth.  As I healed and did immense work on myself I discovered "I" mattered, my voice mattered and my feelings mattered.  Simple gestures of self love towards myself helped me grow, here are a few I used: Scheduling myself for me time Eliminating toxic people from my circle Saying "NO" Doing only what brings me "Joy" and nothing out of obligation ...
