Before we get into this, one of my favourite topics of letting go of physical, mental and habitual clutter, on Sunday its the last in the current Heal Your Past Series, where I’ll be sharing the workbook again, so if you lost track or want to hop in now, you’ll have another chance to download it so you can go through it in your own time without logging in to Substack.
I also created a much better Members Room for all paid members, now neatly organised so you can find articles that feel the most relevant. Soon I'll be writing more about exploring our shadow side, which can become of the most transformative things we can do for ourselves.
There’s a part of us that knows the way in our life, is able to resist checking our phones, do all the self care we want, have healthy relationships and go to bed at a good hour so we can do all the wonderful things to make the world a better place - you know it?
To invite our higher self to step in, we need to welcome them.
How can we do this when we are holding on to detritus from months and years gone by? Mental, physical and emotional?
I’m guilty of this too. Space, holding, and clarity enables us to wriggle in our chrysalis if we haven’t yet made it out, and grow into who we are allowing ourselves to become.
In a personal story I shared, I wrote about shedding the burden I carried for years in the form of clutter and out-dated patterns, many years after losing my babies, my home, my marriage, and friends. Although we are shaped by our experiences, we do not need to shrink ourselves because of them.
To create space for change, we're not just discarding physical stuff left over from summer, but committing to working through undone jobs, working through to-do lists, ditching habits that don't serve us, and this mental load we carry from the past.
See the rest on Substack!
