Clearing the Clutter for a New Decade

We are at the tail end of a 10-year cycle. These past ten years have been full of change and challenge for many of us. We are fast approaching the dawn of a new era: a new 10-year cycle that can bring new light and life. In order to make space for this new light and life, it’s a great time to clear the clutter from this decade and before.

Clearing the clutter for a new decade.

Clearing the clutter can be about your outer world or internal world. Both have their benefits and work together: as your external world gets less cluttered and more organized, more often than not so does your inner world.

Here are 7 tips to help you clear the clutter in your outer world.

1. Go through your handbag and/or wallet and clear the clutter.
2. Clean out the glove box in your car.
3. Clean out the pantry, toss any expired items and donate what you’re not going to use.
4. Dump out a drawer and organize it into three categories: Items to keep in this drawer, things that belong elsewhere, and things to throw out or donate. Immediately place the “items to keep in this drawer” back into the drawer once it’s clean.  Find homes for the “things that belong elsewhere” right away. Toss out or donate the rest.
5. Pick one closet and organize it into three categories: Items to keep in this closet, things that belong elsewhere, and things to throw out or donate. Immediately place the “items to keep in this closet” back into the closet once it’s clean.  Find homes for the “things that belong elsewhere” right away. Toss out or donate the rest.
6. Delete unused Apps on your Smartphone.
7. Clear out your inbox. One way to do this is to group or sort everything by “sender” in order to get a quick overview of who is in your inbox. From there you can archive or delete as needed.

Here are 7 tips to help you clear the clutter in your inner world.

1. Become more aware of your energetic space. “Finding the size of your healthy aura”* is a great way to start to become more aware of your healthy energetic space. Once you’re more aware of your space, you can notice more of what is your energy and what is not yours.
2. Ground. Grounding* is a key step in helping you to declutter your inner world.
3. Call back all of your energy from the previous day, week, month, year or even this past decade. “The golden net technique”* is a great one for this. The only way to take care of your energy is to have it in your space.
4. Separate your energy from other people’s energies. The “my energy, your energy exercise”* is a fabulous way to help with this.
5. Forgive yourself and others. The Hawaiian forgiveness prayer, Ho’oponopono, is a great one for forgiving people with whom you may have grievances.
6. Cut unwanted energetic cords. Energetic cords are typically created between two people where there’s an energy exchange (e.g., family members, co-workers, healthcare practitioners, people you know via the Internet).  These often unspoken agreements to act and behave in certain ways do not have to be accepted and often get outdated.
7. Update and clear outdated energetic contracts. These may be with yourself, family members, from past lives, etc. This level of energy work is great to have some help with, as this is a deep level of clearing and updating.

If you’d like assistance clearing the clutter in your inner world on any level, I encourage you to schedule your session(s) here.

Below is a wonderful affirmation I learned from Mary Morrissey that I encourage you to say at least once a day as you continue to clear the clutter through the end of the year.

“I’m organize and efficient in all that I do, all that I have, and all that I am. My spaces are free flowing and welcoming to all that supports me in living a life I love living. Peace, calm, joy and abundance surround me always. I’m grateful for the clarity that I have and all that is coming to me.”

May the closing of this decade be filled with a beautiful remembrance and honoring of all you’ve accomplished, a decluttering of all that no longer serves you, and a celebration of how much you’ve learned and grown in this 10-year period.

May this coming decade be your best yet!
