Creating Congruence Daily Tip: Declutter


For the next few months I am sharing small, daily actions you can take to create more balance in your body, mind, and spirit. If one resonates with you, please incorporate it and see how you feel. Share any results.

Day Fourteen

Home environment.

Declutter. This concept has been promoted through Feng Shui and similar arts aimed at creating a clear space. Seeing order in your home and work environments can affect your mindset and nervous system. The psychology behind it can be self-tested. 

Decluttering can take some time, especially if you tend toward an all-or-nothing attitude. Start small. Pick a room a week, or a cabinet, or a drawer. Or consider spending a set amount of time toward the task. If you are experiencing overwhelm, break it down into smaller components and build from there. Donating and discarding what you no longer need not only frees up space for the new, it also affirms your belief in an abundant universe, which always provides.

For assistance with this, or the concept of “tidying” look at Marie Kondo’s book on the subject.

Or, you might consider hiring someone to assist with this task.

In the Long Island area, my friend Pat Campbell has an amazing business where she helps people declutter and then helps direct donated items to charitable organizations to match the items with those who need them. 

A congruent life feels vibrant and full of infinite possibilities where your body, mind, and spirit feel in sync.  Like a personal trainer for the physical body, I help individuals train the mind toward positive focus and deliberate creation.
