Cleanse the Clutter
I heard inspirational author, Cheryl Richardson, speak the other day in DC, at a Hay House event, and she talked about clutter. Cheryl described how she had spent her life holding onto stuff. She was in an unhealthy marriage, and when she finally got the strength to leave it, she began to toss out other things as well. Files, piles, drawers, paper; she had saved them all for someday. The someday when she just might need them. Someday she would need to know that. Someday someone might ask for it. What she was saying was that she didn’t trust that her needs would be met; that the universe would provide. Cheryl described throwing out an old file cabinet full of paper, and how she deliberately took the trash bag to a far away dumpster to avoid last minute regrets. Years later, she trusts that she’ll remember what she needs to know, when she needs to know it. She described the invisible energy cords attaching us to all of our stuff, and how those energy cords zap our energy every day. I thought about my big black file cabinet, I’m sure a good match to Cheryl’s. My piles, my desk, my…
