Lesson 148: Clearing or Cleaning May Be...

Our clearing practises can occur in both the home or work. It also can be something you need to release from your mind, body and soul. Today we are to think about what we still may need to release and if you have resistance in letting that item or thought go. Ask why this is.

When I think of resistance in release, I think of my own memories attached to an item. Sometimes it’s the only piece of information I have in relation to a memory. I think to myself, is this a memory I want to let go of? I think the clutter gets to me but at the same time, I find it hard to let go of attached memories. I haven’t documented my life, so I think an item that holds a memory should be kept. The only problem is then I start collecting clutter that I don’t need. I mean, I want to be minimalist and this is my greatest challenge.

In term of my thoughts, I think I have released a lot of pain that caused some darkness in my mind. I think I have more clarity and wisdom now than I ever did before. I know I have the strength and power to overcome a lot. I guess like anyone else, those negative thoughts slip in and out on occasion – for I am human and that’s okay. I guess the difference with myself now, is that I don’t wallow in anything like I used to. I just keep moving forward and I know I’ll be okay.

What’s something you resist when trying to let go? Why do you think it holds you back?
