I know what you mean about it being meditative. I really zone out when cleaning or doing dishes. I'll usually have an ipod in listening to some personal development, but if I don't, I'm in another world all together. Great feedback Kara-Leah. I know what you mean about it being meditative.

One of my favourite ways to spend an afternoon is intuitively and organically tidying, cleaning and organising my way around the house with no fixed agenda. It's my way of connecting with flow. I find that one thing always leads on to the next, and I focus on the task at hand, keeping my mind still. It's a meditation really, and at the end of it, not only do I feel refreshed, but I have a clean and tidy house. Gotta love that! Much joy, Kara-Leah I’m a big believer in order and when my house is clean and tidy, I feel so much better energetically.

I honor you for that! So, I feel I can add a bit to the conversation about ORDER, as I am a lifestyle management consultant and professional organizer... I loved what you said about how when you pay attention to your surroundings, you felt more energized in the space. That is SO true. What I encourage my people to do is take a few minutes every day and walk around your space. Pick something up and say, "does this GIVE me energy, or does this take energy away?" The answer usually comes clearly and immediately and that's how you know you can let something go...even if you 1. paid a lot of money for it. 2. Got it as a gift. 3. "might" need it someday. Imagine how amazing it would feel to live and work in a space that only energized you, not drained you. Now THAT would be outstanding! Hey, best of luck to you! warmly, Jessica Duquette from It's Not About Your Stuff Greetings, Alex, what a beautiful journey you have set upon! 12 weeks, that’s a good amount of time to be focusing on your own improvement.
