Lesson 154: Check In WEEK 22 - Putting Away Every Day

This week was very much about focusing on taking your time with each task. Anything that needs to be put away, apply awareness and the task might seem so daunting or overwhelming. It can be fun if you just take your time. It’s not about completing but how you relate.

I found that when I just took my time and thought about the home for my things, it helped me to accomplish even simple tasks. I wasn’t too worried if I didn’t get things done completely. It was more of thinking in steps – if I had an item, where does it go, then moving it and sometimes realising it didn’t “fit” so I moved it elsewhere. Clearing and putting away doesn’t need to be a hard task. I mean if it got too much, you just stop. There is no race to win.

The more we switch off our rushed lives and minds, moving our focus on the task at hand and being present, allows more calmness to arrive. Everyone should spread the message of awareness to all aspects of their lives including a simply clearing process.
