For the Southern Hemisphere they are coming into the fall, but those of us in the Northern Hemisphere we are preparing to shed the skin of old man winter. Spring is officially here and it’s a healthy reminder to do a bit of spring cleaning, removing any stagnancy accumulated over the winter months.

Rubber gloves…check! Scrubby brush…check! Bucket of soapy water…check! Deleting old negative friends…what?! Did you think this was about cleaning your house? This is about spring cleaning of one’s home, but deeper within the self.

As we naturally and literally clean our residency, we are reminded to do a bit of mental and spiritual spring cleaning. Check in with yourself…are you happy? If so, great…get out and enjoy the beautiful season; if not, time to clean! What habits have you developed over time? Are they serving your higher good? Chances are you may need to discuss with a friend, as we are often clouded by false perceptions.

Speaking of friends…speak only to those who will encourage your growth. Are there negative people in your life? Do you need them? Are they keeping you in a negative place? Get out and enjoy all that the Canvas of Life has to offer…reconnect with the Canvas…Shine once again!

Stepping into the Canvas with a new attitude. An attitude of Yes I can! I can change the way I see things in my life, I can change the way I think, and I can change my ways. As Wayne Dyer reminds us, “When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change.” Be the change you want to be…take the opportunity to do a little spring cleaning…
