The Secret to Manifesting and Transformation is Not What You Think. Part 1
When you want to bring something new into your life, it’s important to create space for it.
There are many reasons why de-cluttering is important in the manifesting process. There are many reasons why de-cluttering is important in the manifesting process.
One reason is that when you are hanging on to things you don’t need, you are unconsciously affirming the message to yourself that you may not get more. That if you get rid of it then you will have nothing.
The truth is nature abhors a vacuum, so if you create a space, it will naturally fill.
Think about it, if you clear off your counters, how long does it take them to get piled up with stuff again? Generally not long, if you’re home.
The trick is to be intentional about what you put back into these areas.
Clutter has a bit of a bad reputation because some clutter is actually good, it’s the stuff that you love that carries good and inspiring energy.
But, some clutter is not so good, and there are 4 different kinds!
Common
Mental & Emotional
Symbolic
Energetic
What I have realized through my own process of transformation is that the Simplest and Most important thing you can do to get started is get rid of clutter.
It works to start shifting the energy of your environment and the results can be instant.
Clutter clogs up every aspect of your life. It stresses you out and you may not even realize the overwhelm you feel is coming from all the tasks that are around you all the time.
Let’s start with Common Clutter;
it is that junk drawer that you shove everything in.
the pile of newspapers and junk mail in the foyer or even piling up in the recycling area.
It is the broken items you keep with the idea that you will fix them but never do.
It is the clothing that you are hanging on to.
The toys that you keep even though the kids are long past playing with them.
Books and magazines overflowing their shelves and coffee tables.
So get started clearing out the common clutter, even if you only do one drawer a day, or one recycling bag.
Commit to 20 minutes a day and I promise you will feel a sense of accomplishment and remember to celebrate your successes.
Every piece of clutter gone is freeing up your mind and your life for more of what you want.
If you really want to feel a big difference then commit to doing an entire room.
Don't stop until it's cleared out. You will be blown away at how you feel.
Or, alternatively, choose a category like clothing, and go throughout your space and remove all clothing that is no longer needed, not just from one room, but from all areas. This technique will serve you even better for clutter clearing satisfaction and it means that category is checked right off the list. Done!!
