Clear Up Your Space
Everything is energy. You know that. Did you ever stop to think that this also refers to the fact that energy can be stored? Have you ever thought about the energy stored in your home — energy that isn’t necessarily yours? I didn’t until I listened to a video blog by Feng Shui expert, Sheri Ruston (the Flow Doctor) about space clearing.
I have never thought about it before, but there is residual energy in your home and it might be affecting you. Forget ghosts…you can experience this even if you live in a new house (Were you stressed or anxious while building it? Any stressful factors for any of the construction crew?) You can “feel” the energy if you pay attention.
When my husband and I purchased our house 2 years ago, we were excited. But when we moved in, I felt the need to paint everything! I had to remove the essence of the old owners…make the house ours. You can argue that my actions were purely for aesthetic reasons, but I believe differently. And the house has truly become ours. I feel really good when I walk in the door. I look around and feel that the home reflects us. It’s a safe place where I can get away from the world, relax, unwind and have fun with my family.
If you don’t feel that way about your home, take a walk around it and intentionally feel the energy around it. Does one room make you feel cranky? Before I Feng Shui-ed my office, I had an area in it that I didn’t like to be in. I couldn’t write. My computer and the internet would disconnect and lock up. I spent a lot of my time at the kitchen table or in my bedroom (big no- no by the way — no electronics in the bedroom!) because my writing flowed better there. I rearranged some things, banished the bad energy and now I can write freely and my computer works much better.
Have a clean, happy space is one of the most important things you can do to live a more authentic life. It is so difficult to concentrate on things that are important if you have clutter or bad energy flowing through your home!
If you believe that everything is energy, how can you not believe this ?! Listen to my archived show with Sheri on Authentic Self radio and learn even more. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/authentic-self.
