Do you gather energy from releasing items hanging around that you no longer need?
Is it time to look around your space again?
Is it time to check out those boxes in the basement?
Really?
You have a storage unit you’ve been meaning to clean out?
May you begin, dear one, may you begin.
When Ben and I moved into a shared home last year, I was surprised to see boxes I hadn’t seen in a while.
Oh!
That’s right. My house was too small, so Ben stored some of my boxes. I wonder what’s in them?
Yikes.
Delving in a bit, I found love from long ago in cards and letters from my ex. Loads of souvenirs from our honeymoon to Italy. Lots that quantified a love that would never end that had ended.
Ouch.
Since Ben and I had just moved in together, finding these items felt timely and awful.
I cried.
Ben held me.
I cleaned out some of it…then tucked the rest away for a winter project.
Last week, I again tackled those basement boxes of memories from the past, finding not only MORE cards, poems, and evidence of how much in love Joe and I had been, but also my first grade math book, my high school yearbooks, and eight pounds of Mad Magazines from the 60’s and 70’s.
Plus lots more.
I had been a person holding onto LOTS of material memories of earlier versions of myself.
Interesting.
And now that I’m this particular version of Joy, I’m not interested any longer in storing lots of physical evidence of who I’ve been and what I’ve done.
I don’t need much now.
I’d rather not store boxes upon boxes of memories.
So my goal this week is to complete the purging down there, reducing five boxes of memories into one plastic bin.
A tall order, but I’m pretty sure I’m on track to accomplish that goal.
This lightening of my material memories feels great, freeing, and an opening for new aspects of my life to enter.
I predict I’ll live into offering video on my site, speaking, and adding more and more value of what I’ve learned, plus what the All has told me to share, as I add my voice of healing into the world.
And…I know I’ll continue to do my favorite activity, which is to guide clients as their spiritual/joyful mentor into their deepest peace and joy.
If you’d like to work with me, go here to schedule your get-acquainted call. I so look forward to talking with you!
