Not surprisingly, having clutter around you also has a deep effect upon your inner being. It can make you feel confused, disorganised, overwhelmed, despondent, even physically congested. You can easily become lethargic, procrastinating, stuck or drawn back to thoughts of the past, instead of truly enjoying the present moment. It is not unusual for people to feel reluctant to throw things out or give them away, because they have become attached to them. But imagining that objects are part of a person’s identity, security, or self-worth is really an illusion. You will feel much stronger once you find that your inner happiness does not depend on possessions, then it is easy to let them go.
What constitutes clutter?
Firstly, there are the things that you hold on to ‘just in case’ but rarely or never use, including clothing and kitchen utensils, not to mention the junk that fills drawers and cupboards. Or too many objects crammed into a small space and things stored on the floor, in corners and under furniture, all obstructing the free movement of energy. Then there’s everything that you do not enjoy having around you, objects that trigger upsetting feelings or unhappy memories, items that hold a negative message such as papers connected with past failures or photos of former lovers. These are the most obvious types of clutter, not to mention the more subtle forms.
Clutter clearing - Why do it
Clutter clearing is cathartic, therapeutic and revitalising. It is the essential feng shui detox.. You will be surprised how much more enthusiasm and physical energy you will have when you turn out everything that you do not use, need or love and you dispose of things that have ceased to inspire, please and uplift you. Once the atmosphere around you is no longer stagnated by clutter and old baggage, it will be able to nourish and support you, enabling your life to move forward freely without undue obstacles pulling you down and holding you back. You will connect more easily to the healthy vibrations of the things you value and you will quite literally feel lighter in body, mind and spirit. In business, both performance and morale will invariably increase, sometimes spectacularly.
