Spring Cleaning For The Soul…How We LIVE LIFE BIG!

“The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of nonessentials.”  -Lin Yutang

Just as though it were time for Spring cleaning, we are called to “unclutter” our Life…that out with the old and in with the new, no matter what time of the year it may happen to be.  Unload that old baggage…that luggage with wheels for some…unfounded fears, and gnawing worries.  Get rid of old grudges and resentment, anger, jealousy, and that old hurt from the past that may be still hanging out in your life. the light-hearted mayJourney on…the hard-hearted need not enter.

Peace resides in a room with a Magnificent view in the warm, safe, quiet corners of your mind.  That view is of a Blissful and Joy-filled today…a Brilliant and Light-filled tomorrow, where the sky is the only limit.  All too often…it is a place where few reside, and that many seek.  Peace requires its own space…in a place that only open…uncluttered hearts can build.

With that said…I am brought right back to Rev Pattie Mercados invitation during our Service this past Sunday…What would I do if I were brave today? Would I align my thinking with the Divine…which would most certainly require me to “unclutter”…to remove from my proverbial plate…my Life…that which no longer serves me?  That “uncluttering”…that “de-cluttering” opens our door to our GODling Self…and not merely our earthing self…that means by which we connect with our Divinity, and accept the Goodness in every area of our Lives which is Truly ours!

Yet…there remains a place…a Purpose…for that “clutter”…that fought feeling of being “boxed-in”, as Rev Pattie so aptly expressed as we experienced her Words.  For it is that “clutter”, expressed as a box overflowing, that let’s us Know that it is Truly time to expand our thinking to a Bigger playing field…training and transforming our own mind…our thoughts to Aspire to the Infinite Mind…GOD…that we are One with!

So…I invite You to make room for Infinite Mind…GOD…to allow that Kinship with All LIFE that we are…to claim our Good and our Blessings!

Here’s some suggestions…those “Hows” that are GOD-given…

  • Set aside time to BE…the thinking, the planning and the doing will emerge from there!
  • Make Peace of Mind a Wonderous Journey, not and end in itself!
  • Enjoy the Journey!
  • Remember that Forgiveness cleans up lots of messes…Trust & Believe I Know!
  • Make Peace with the past!  Joyfully release that past NOW!
  • Count your Blessing today…for they are many!
  • Savor each & every present moment…NOW!

I invite you to consider… Whether it be the cross you may be bearing, the “clutter” in your life, or that feeling of being “boxed-in”… such may be the opening to your awakening to a Life of Purpose… The Life that you Truly Desire!
To New Beginnings Together!
Are You Ready To Celebrate Life…and BE the Best that YOU can BE?

I NOW invite YOU to Celebrate LIFE…Let’s Talk …with Your 30 minute complimentary Consultation!

To Our Health, Well-BEING, and Empowerment Together!

Much Love & GOD’s Blessings!
Rhonda

Season for Nonviolence Day 6: February 4The thought for today is SIMPLICITY. To simplify is to invite peacefulness into your life. When we have lots of 'stuff' in our lives, it is hard to be peaceful. Close your eyes and ask "How can I simplify my life, what can I let go of?""Live simply, so others can simply live." - Traditional Quaker guidanceIf we dare let go of our possessions and the will to control and dominate, we will cultivate a deeper spirit of peace within us because we can accept the present moment as a gift. By simplifying our lives, dropping less important activities and 'things', we allow more time for what matters most.Today: I will write down three ways I can simplify my life and put at least one of them into practice today. I will give away something I have not used in the past year.
