Spring is here and along with it comes brighter and sunnier days. I love how the sunlight shines throughout my home. But, oh my goodness, it looks like I haven’t dusted in years! Lol! I take this as a sign it is time for spring cleaning. So I find myself spending a lot time with my swifter and my cordless vacuum. Armed with purpose and determination we tackle the dust with vigor. And, as each area is cleaned, I feel lighter, accomplished and a little giddy. It is as if I am wiping away more than the dirt. My heart feels lighter and I feel internally cleansed.
Spring cleaning is more than removing dirt, it has a profound effect on us. Decluttering your home helps to declutter your mind. It is very therapeutic and inspiring. By cleaning and removing the excess from your home you are making room for all the good things to come into your life. Emotionally, you begin to let go of the things you no longer need. I always feel so much lighter when I pack up the items I no longer use and drop them off at a donation center. My mind feels clearer and more focused. I feel as if I hit the reset button and I am ready to move forward.
Springtime is a time of year when we leave the heaviness of the winter months behind and open ourselves to the lighter sun filled months. It is also the time of year to let go of the emotions that no longer serve you. Let go of any regrets, old hurts or mistakes. Simply wipe them away. Forgive yourself. Love yourself. Open yourself to the real you that is no longer weighed down with heavy emotions. A you that is filled with peace and joy.
Start slow. Clean one drawer and watch the magic happen. Step into the light and see how shiny and bright your life is.
Happy Spring!
Namaste.
