Clear Clutter The Easy Way

Jan 24, 2023

 

In my last blog, I mentioned how to identify your clutter and some reasons why you may avoid letting it go.

Now I’d like to go a little deeper into some tips that I have personally used for years to bust through the clutter and keep the vibes of my space fresh and bright!

Again I’m not suggesting you get rid of all your belongings or that you have to clutter clear at all. I’m just offering information.

I’ve seen the positive impact that clearing clutter has had on my life and the lives of my clients. So I hope that you will at least give these tips a try for yourself.

1. Notice where you have multiples

If you have 6 Large cooking spoons, 3 or 4 sets of china and drinking glasses. Do you really need all of that? Especially if you are living in a space that really doesn’t have room for all of that. It doesn’t have to be cookware. It could be books, clothes, anything. Notice if it's excessive and if you really (need) it. 

(Insight) This...

I see Clutter

Jan 17, 2023

What do you do with all the stuff you don’t want to acknowledge?

Well, you throw it into a closet, drawer or some storage compartment of course!

I’m joking, but that’s exactly what many of us do. All of our belongings are a reflection of our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. And symbolic of parts of us that we dislike, are ashamed of and all the repressed feelings in our subconscious.

I’ve noticed in all the clutter clearing books and courses I’ve seen. They all like to tell you to get rid of clutter and their tips on doing so, but I’ve personally never seen anyone address the reasons you have the clutter in the first place.

Me telling you that you have too much stuff is pointing out the obvious.

Wouldn’t you like to know how to more easily let go of the clutter? Instead of just being told how to separate it into boxes and organizing tips.

Because the thing is, if you don’t address the reasons why you haven’t been willing to...

"What the hell Happened?!"

Jan 11, 2023

You’ve been watching your thoughts, writing things you appreciate, eating nutrient dense foods, and adding more physical activity.

Things were going great, you felt better than you ever had, and you could feel the positive momentum flowing.

Then you suddenly noticed it seemed like all the good stuff stopped!

If you take a closer look you’ll see you most likely stopped writing things you appreciated, started complaining about things a bit more, and maybe you skipped a few days or weeks of exercise.

It's not always noticeable when you start getting off track; usually, it happens in small increments.

 

See, most people want the change and all the “good stuff” that comes from changing, but without actually changing anything they are doing.

They want someone to show up, with a magic wand and make it so they can have everything they want immediately.

Reminder… You can’t keep doing the same things and get different results. No matter how...

Stand Tall

Jan 03, 2023

This week I want to talk about posture and how it has such an enormous impact on how we feel.

Most of you have heard adults; usually, a parent, say: "Stand up straight, stop slouching, it looks horrible."

But it's not just that slouching looks bad, it has huge adverse effects on our mental and physical health as well.

 

For example; If you ever pay attention to actors, you will see that they must change their posture and mannerisms to get into character. The confident characters always stand tall and usually shoulders squared off, those characters being bullied or lacking confidence will be depicted slouched, chest sunk in.

Many scientific studies are proving that just holding certain body positions for a short while will produce chemical reactions in our bodies that contribute to feeling more optimistic/confident or depressed/ hopeless amongst many other emotions.

Now you’d probably think, oh ok, I will just stand up straighter.

That's an excellent idea, but what I find...

A Fresh Start

Dec 27, 2022

It's that time of year again when people start thinking about the changes they want or need to make in their lives.

The infamous "New Year's Resolutions" most often include losing weight, sticking to an exercise plan, quitting smoking, spending less money, making family time a priority, etc.

These are all great ideas, but I always wondered why we had to make these choices one day a year and then when we most likely failed at keeping the resolutions we just labeled ourselves failures and then waited until January 1st of the following year to try again.

A pretty dumb idea if you ask me...

 

I'm a big believer in making daily choices, better yet, moment by moment choices.

One of the ways I was able to lose so much weight and keep it off was by avoiding the common thoughts like Oh I'll start on Monday.

So if I missed a workout or ate something that wasn't in my plan I would simply get back on track at the next meal or start my workout the next day.

If I made an excuse or...

Ready for the New

Dec 20, 2022

Do you have anything new planned? Is there anything coming up in your life that you’re excited about or looking forward to?

If not, let's change that now! My dad always tells me that we have to have something to look forward to. It doesn’t have to be a big thing, just that you’re looking forward to it.

It’s that fun feeling that you get when you are waiting for a package to come in the mail!

But you don’t need to actually have a package on the way in order to feel that excited feeling.

You can generate that sensation by imagining. Imagining creates that excited state immediately within you! Without anything outside you needing to change. Yes, you are that POWERFUL!

So, the new year is about to begin and this is a time that many people will get super excited about setting and accomplishing new goals!

I’m sure you’ve noticed that you and most other people don’t stay excited or motivated for very long.

One reason for this is that...

Time to Rest

Dec 13, 2022

This time of the year many people feel they require more sleep.

Our sleep/wake cycles are regulated by light, so it makes perfect sense that if we have less light each day, we feel sleepier.

I won't go into ALL of that, but feel free to do your research if you like… I do want to mention how many of us don’t honor our bodies signals for more rest and push ourselves to do even more.

 

Your body is not trying to trick you. If you feel tired and sleepy, you simply need more rest.

Your body is not some annoying enemy always getting in your way with all its wants and requirements.

It's funny that we naturally require more rest and quiet time during the holiday season!

How can you possibly give yourself more sleep when you have all these parties, meetings, lines to wait in to buy gifts, heck you can barely find time to feed yourself in a day let alone take a nap.

When you stop, listen to your true needs and honor them, life gets so much easier.

I know we have all...

Where's My Money!?

Dec 06, 2022
 
 

Money is a topic that most everyone is interested in.

Every person I've ever spoken to about money has made it very clear that they would like to have more, even the super wealthy! You can read books on finance, banking, investing, etc. but none of these books goes to the root of your money story.

Each person has their individual experiences with money, but over the years I've noticed many similarities with my clients, family, and friends. 

Perhaps you believe life just happens to you and you have no choice.

Maybe you feel you’re just lucky or unlucky depending upon the family you were born into. You may feel out of control with money, even if you have a lot. Feeling wrong for having more than others, or thinking you must work hard to justify your wealth. The stories are endless and specific to you.

On top of old ancestral patterns, science, if you need scientific proof, is now proving these patterns can go back 14 generations; there's...

The Holiday Trap

Nov 29, 2022
A funny thing happens during the holidays. People who are already maxed out and stressed out suddenly add even more to their to do lists.
 
The sense of obligation is intense this time of year. With work parties, family gatherings and shopping; when is there time to rest and do things for yourself?

Many people struggle with taking time for themselves all year round. Lots of us, especially women, are taught to take care of others first. But always putting others' needs first can be detrimental to your well being.

You may start to harbor a lot of resentment towards others and even towards yourself for not setting healthy boundaries.

The guilt that often comes with setting boundaries can be a big sticking point. Feeling you should do this or that because it's family and you gotta put family first. Or giving gifts to people you don’t really know or like. It's all very draining and not honoring you.

Understand that you really don’t have to do all these...

Who's Responsible?

Nov 22, 2022

I was thinking the other day about who is responsible for my life.

It's easy to say, "well me of course; I’m responsible for my own life. Other people can and do help me, but I have to take responsibility and stay in my power."

Questioning myself helped me realize how often I’ve taken responsibility for what happens in others lives as well.

You can contribute to others, but it is not your obligation to live their lives or take on their stuff!

How many people’s lives do you think you are responsible for?

Just go with the first number that comes up.

Pretty crazy huh?! If you’ve never thought about this before I think you’ll start noticing how much of your time, energy and attention is going towards other people's lives.

What they’re doing, creating, possibly overextending yourself to assist them in reaching their goals. Helping and being there for people we care about is great, but there is a limit.

Do you find that you’re unable to get...
