How to Purge, Create Space and Cut ties

The other day I posted a blog about, why purge, clear your space and create space.

Now I will talk about how to do these things.

Well, lets start where we left off. The rotten vegetables, in the fridge. Tainting everything. And the fresh organic vegetables, sitting on the bench. Going rotten.

Its a simple choice that had to be made. A conscious, I choose the organic vegetables over the rotten vegetables. And then, the rotten vegetables are removed from the fridge. See. Simple.

Ahh, but what about when we are not aware that we have rotten vegetables in our auric fields. In our minds and in our lives? How then do we get rid of these?

Basics, we go back to basics.

  1. Journal. This practise in itself highlights to us where we have rotten fruit. Bad habits. Unhelpful thoughts. Recurring negativity. And this gets it our of our head. Being aware means we can now redirect ourselves when we find ourselves speaking or being in a way that takes up space with negativity.
  2. Close loops. This is basically the unclosed tasks that you have still hanging around in your head. Big ones and small ones. Its the things like, hang the washing out. Bake a cake with the kids. Get your hoo hoo waxed. Cut your babies toenails. Take the car to the mechanic for a check up. Ring the lawyers. Get the tooth fixed. Leave you’re mistress. All unclosed loops are taking up space inside our brains, keeping us hanging onto the past and stopping us from moving forward.
  3. Declutter the home. Marie Kondo, now a trend. This process of removing all things that do not bring joy to the touch, is a process of purging in itself. It clears space energetically and physically. Believe in feng shui or not, it works on all levels. Get the book, watch the series and start the process of decluttering. This, is the first step I took far before I even knew that I was purging.
  4. Weed the garden. Clear the rubbish bins. Empty the car out. Put the washing away. Clean the fridge out. Again, this feng shui moves energy around. It takes the stale energy and leaves space for new movement and energy.
  5. Move your body. Yoga, walks, jogs, boxing, swim, dance, it doesn’t matter. Just move your body, it shakes up the stale energies and allows space for new energies to come through.
  6. Cleanse. Sorry, but its a real goodie. Drinking a lot of water flushes toxins. Veggie juices. Bought cleanses, lemon, all the good stuff. Removes the old not so good stuff, and leaves space for the new.

There are plenty of things I could suggest. However, that’s enough for today. If you truly put this into practice, things would start to shift.

I would recommend a coach to walk along side you during this, as when you start to purge, your emotions will come up to be released also. A coach will be the difference between you stuffing it down and collecting more old energy, or releasing it and visualising a new future for yourself.

Week one in my original programme focuses on purging. Send me a message to book you first call where we can discuss what I do, and how that would work for you.

How to get started with journalling

How to begin journalling.

Most of the people around the world who have a calming presence, who seem to be able to tackle the big stuff without faltering, journal.

Your coach, counsellor, friend or therapist may have told you to start journaling.

You see social media articles telling you to journal.

But, you say, how? How do I journal? What do I write?

First of all, let me share with you what I believe journalling is.

Journalling is a process that allows us to get our thoughts on paper, to express the thoughts inside our logical brains which then makes way for feelings to be expressed from our emotional brain. And then, the magical part, our higher wisdom, intuition or higher powers can flow throw onto the paper.

It is a way to receive guidance from ourselves, to ourselves, for ourselves.

So how do you get started as a virgin in journalling? Here’s some ideas to try out

1- Have a glass of water to sip on as you go, for some reason this allows more flow

2 – Start with as little as 5-10 minutes. No phone. Pen and paper and just write.

3 – To prompt the beginning of this, start with a sentences such as

  • Lately, I’ve been thinking alot about…
  • Last night I dreamt that…
  • Parenting is feeling really…
  • Im worried about…
  • I’ve been fantasising alot about…
  • During sex I feel like…
  • I feel the most happy when…
  • This relationship….
  • My family…
  • I’m unsure what to do about…
  • I wish I…

4- Make this a private journal, so that you are not judging what you write. This is between you and your journal. This way you can just flow your truth.

Remember, journaling is not forgiveness letters, or fuck you letters or any specific intentional outcomes. Journalling is a freeflow from your brains, to the paper. To allow space for higher thoughts to flow. Higher ideas to birth.

There is no specific reason when you journal like this.

When the time is right, and with the support you need, you can begin to dive deeper into the inner work. There are other articles around this.

Should you want support or guidance along the way, email or direct message me to discuss coaching packages.

Dear Diary – Here’s why I love you

Journalling. Visualising. Planning. Manifesting. Why do it?

We all hear people talk about journaling our thoughts. Writing after meditation or before we sleep. Having dream diaries. Writing letters that we never send.

Writing to someone as if there really was someone.

Let me share with you a couple of reasons why journaling is one of the first things I would invite you to do when you are experiencing resistance to transition into a different phase of life.

1 – A problem shared is a problem halved. Through expressing all our issues unfiltered, uncensored and without judgement onto piece of paper we feel heard. We have allowed ourselves freedom of truth. And there is no risk of consequence, judgement or reaction. We can now see the mess for what it is.

2 – Once we have allowed the predominant emotion to be expressed, we have allowed room for the more gentle emotions to be expressed. In here is where we start to hear what it is we are really looking for. What it is we are really wanting.

3 – Moving something from your mind, through our hands is one way to get into your heart. Now that we have an idea of what we are looking for we get to begin to answer questions. Such as, what sort of career would make me happy? What sort of characteristics do I desire in a partner? You see, once we have allowed expression of our thoughts we activate our logical brains.

4 – Planning. Now that we have an idea of what it is we desire in life, we can begin to make small habits that move us closer to living that sort of life. Drink an extra glass of water a day. Do 5 minutes of yoga 5 days a week. Buy natural shampoo. We now have the capacity and the calm about us to make the plans.

5 – Continual journaling will continue to remove the gunk and keep us coming back into our hearts. This is what allows us to continue to DO. Which, is manifestation.

Give it a try. Try it for 7 days. Block out 5 minutes a day to begin with. Then slowly find the time to go on a rampage if you have alot of unheard thoughts. Ideally, you will team this up with meditation of some kind in time.

Namaste.
