It’s Renewal Time!
Spring is the season that represents renewal, rebirth, new beginnings and transformation; it’s all about starting fresh and starting over. That’s usually the time of the year when we deep-clean our homes, plant or replant our gardens, etc. However, most of us probably don’t spend enough time cleansing, renewing and recharging ourselves on a body/mind/spirit level...
Well, it’s never too late to start! Here are a few tips for spring-cleaning yourself physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and energetically:
- Declutter! When deep-cleaning your space, take the opportunity to clear it out, too. How much stuff do you really need? What can you pass on, donate or throw away?
- Detox! Do a cleanse or practice mindful eating by opting for a healthier SOUL (Seasonal, Organic, Unaltered, Local) diet.
- Retreat! Countless places offer different kinds of events and retreats, from meditation or yoga to wellness; especially during Spring time.
- Reenergize! Use your favorite tools and explore new positive energy rituals, such as journaling. One of my favorite tools for uncluttering the brain and sparking creativity is the morning pages exercise from The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron (please refer to the article below). This exercise, also known as mind dump or brain drain, works well at bedtime, too.
- Get moving! Try a new exercise routine, join a gym, choose a sport, go hiking or camping...
- Get creative! Read, write, draw, paint, color, build, sing, dance...
- Go natural! In addition to simplifying and detoxifying your life (which includes choosing cleaner products and services), increase your nature time. Nature is the ultimate renewer.
- Let go! Is there some forgiveness work that needs to be done? Spring is one of the best times of the year for releasing and letting go.
- Take stock! Spring break also means that a quarter of the year has already passed by... Have you started working on your New Year’s resolutions yet? Dream... and then make it happen!
- Hope and love! Hope for the best and lead with love.
FINAL THOUGHT: Taking just one or two of these steps will create positive change and help manifest a much better year :)
