S P A C E – the most important energetic space that surrounds us. Ever walked into a room after someone had a fight there? It just feels ichy. The space that surrounds us effects our bodies and souls more than you realise. It can influence our physical health and even cause us to react in emotions not typical of our character. I am quite a calm person, so when I find myself feeling angry (sometimes with no reason), I immediately do a space clearing.
Space clearings can come in a few forms. You can hire an energy worker to come in and do a thorough energy cleaning of your home or office, or you can declutter by removing all the items that does not bring you joy.
I moved 3 years ago from the city to the farm. Almost half of our belongings are still in boxes. It is fascinating that everything still packed, we never truly needed. This is old, stagnant energy.
Recently, I have been on a mission to declutter and let go of anything that does not serve myself or my family. I dedicated a big box now called ‘The Charity Box’. Once a week, I let those items go by filling the box and dropping it off at my local charity for animal welfare.
I started with clothes. I went through all my wardrobes and chest of drawers. I studied each item and soon realised a theme. I no longer was the same person who wore and enjoyed these items. Every time I placed an item into the box, I thanked it for the memories and said, ‘I am not this person anymore’.
Then I went through the nik-naks from my life as an office worker. Thanked and let go.
Once the items left the house, I felt lighter and, unexpectedly, my brain had more space to think. Just think. I started having more space to imagine new futures and be inspired living a happy life.
I am constantly going through my ‘stuff’ and soon, I will start opening those packed boxes.
The decluttering exercise has become an ongoing mission until I only have what is useful and meaningful. I highly recommend it if you feel a bit suffocated. It can be a powerful release that brings in fresh energy.
