Cleaning and re-focusing our closets

REFLECTIONS:
Our outer reality mirrors our inner reality.
As we clean out the clutter in our inner space, our outer worldsbeckon for the same invitation to downsize itself and be liberated.
In order to create a seamless whole in our life, it is crucial for ourouter habits, lifestyle, and schedules to match our new found senseof order and clarity.
What does this mean exactly?
It means that our physical surroundings and habits must begin toreflect the same intentions that we live from within.
When we clear up our possessions and create a detachment fromthem, we begin to create space for new things toemerge.
Our relationship to our things in life need to represent the samedetachment we are creating to our thoughts within our mind.
DECLUTTERING POSSESSIONS
D A Y O N E & T W O : P R A C T I C E O N E

Take a look at all your closet spaces and go through each one to see what youcurrently use and what you don’t.
Take out all the things you have not had a personal relationship to in the pastyear.
Keep them in a corner.
And then once all extraneous items are out of closets, start shedding.
Just let go.
Throwing away or donating things that might have cost time or money is not awaste. It is an essential part of letting go.
Life should be eternally recycled. This doesn’t imply that the old needs to bediscarded. It only implies that the stagnant needs to be replenished.
By stagnant I mean all the things that are just hanging about and taking upspacewithout a personal relationship to us.
Every item in your closet should have a vibrant, CURRENT, and aliverelationship with you. Nothing should just be there because you spent money ortime on it…or it was from the past in some way. If it currently speaks to you, thenkeep it. If it doesn’t, discard it.
HOW TO DECLUTTER YOURPOSSESSIONS
W E E K F O U R
As we shed our excess emotional baggage from within
It is imperative that we do the same with our possessions
Our intention is to be as streamlined as possible: what is within iswithout
For this to happen our outer life - our home, bed, desks, booksshould all be aligned.
Look at this task as holy, not horrific
Don’t see this as work, but instead, as play
Learn to be detached and generous with your things
This practice will teach you to give and share from your heart.
Nothing belongs to you anyway
Everything is borrowed
So clinging and holding on creates weight
Which you don’t need bearing down on you.
Re-aligning fantasy with reality
D A Y T H R E E & F O U R : P R A C T I C E T W O

REFLECTIONS:
Many times, without our conscious realization, we create a list ofdesires, yearnings and longings. We call them GOALS.
“I want to buy a new car”“I want to write my first book”“I want to call all my friends for a big dinner party.”
And so on. Under the guise of them being “goals” we ride hard onourselves, pushing ourselves to the edge of sanity, creating beliefsystems of lack and lesserthanness because we fully buy into thebelief that we should meet these goals.
The truth is many of these “goals” we set are:
1) Not realistic for this time and place in our lives2) Designed to keep us mired in patterns that don’t serve our highestselves3) Keep us busy in our minds, cluttering our inner terrain with“shoulds” and “musts”4) Keeping us out of presence.
DECLUTTERING GOALS
D A Y T H R E E & F O U R : P R A C T I C E T W O

Write down every single goal, wish, desire, fantasy, expectation, craving youhave about yourself, your children, and your partner.
Write down every thing you think you should or want to have but don’t yet.
This could be a quality that you wish your spouse had but doesn’t, you wishyour children have but don’t.
This could be an achievement you see in others that you wish you hadaccomplished in your own life, or same with your children.
When you make the entire list out, go through each one and strike off all theones that are EGO BASED and not based on essence.
Next, take those based on essence and ask yourself, “Is it 100% essential thatI accomplish this right now, at this point in time, or can this way based on otherlife events?”
Strike out the ones that can wait.
Now look at the list you have left and once again ask, “Are these based on MYinner voice or those of others and my culture?
And strike out those that are not truly authentically YOURS.
Now make a new list with what is left over.
Now, by each one’s side write down: “This will not change who I am from theinside.”
HOW TO DECLUTTER GOALS
W E E K F O U R
We pressure ourselves to do, do, do
constantly
We believe that this doing will fill our inner
void
If the doing comes from lack, it will never
enter abundance
Lack begets lack. Period.
The only goals that will “work” are those
that come from truth
The truth that is the most authentic
expression of YOU
And none of what culture tells you to be.
Simplifying Your Life

REFLECTIONS:
In the same way that we fixate on doing goals, we also fixateon doing in our daily lives.
We have associated living with doing.
We simply don’t realize that there is another way to live.Through the BEING state.
This means that we predicate CARE of the SOUL above andbeyond all else.
In order for this to happen we need to let go of ANXIETY andenter FLOW
DECLUTTERING SCHEDULES
D A Y F O U R & F I V E : P R A C T I C E T H R E E
9
Take a look at your typical day and write down all the
activities that feed your soul this could mean those that pay
the bills, and help you keep a clean house, etc.
And take out those that are done out of cultural or family
obligations. See if you can stagger them out more, if you
cannot completely eliminate them.
Do the same with your children and family activities. Take out
whatever doesn’t follow your children’s HEART and your
families ultimate WELL BEING.
HOW TO DECLUTTER YOURSCHEDULE
W E E K F O U R
As the clutter fades away and the noise quietens, we are left
with an empty canvass.
This canvass may seem dauntingly silent at first - as if there is
nothing there to reflect upon.
What we are doing, in effect, is creating a brand new mission
for ourselves…
One that no longer relies on the voice and dictates of others, but
on yourself
This new self may take time to emerge
But when it does, it will take you by surprise
For its vibrancy and shades will be profound indeed
It cannot help but be mesmerizing
The true self always is.

REFLECTIONS:
It is now time to start painting the YOU you always needed to be butwere so deathly afraid of exposing.
It is time to enter a new relationship with yourself.
How do you see yourself now? What do you feel most of the time?What are your thoughts and feelings?
This new way of looking at yourself is going to attract your nextreality.
If you are truly ready to attract your next abundance, then you needto start acting on it now.
By realigning your thoughts and energy to the same vibration of thatwhich you seek to attract.
And thread by thread, you will weave a masterpiece that is YOU.

Vision Boards come to life and action through one thing only yourinternal terrain.
You can “think” abundance all you life, but if you are not innervibrational channel is not dialed to abundance, you will not manifestor attract abundance.
In order to tune your inner channels, you need to be in touch withyour DIVINITY.
This is what this course has been about.
As you live in a space of inner divinity, it will start showing up in yourouter life everywhere.
Take a large piece of paper OR many small ones. Never get caughtup in the mechanics of things. Just do them.
Don’t wait for perfection. Just do them.

CONTINUATION...
On this paper, find representations of all the ways you wish to FEELTODAY AND TOMORROW.
This is what you focus on. YOUR FEELINGS.
If the situation takes you toward these feelings, you keep thesituation and go deeper.
If the situation takes you AWAY from these feelings, you lose thesituation and turn to a new way.
In this momentbymoment way, based feelings, you begin to build awhole new life for yourself.
Your vision board should have NO POSSESSIONS OR THINGS just feelings.
