“The first step in crafting the life you want is to get rid of everything you don’t.” ~ Joshua Becker
If you feel like something is holding you back to your past or the energy around you doesn’t feel right, it’s time to declutter.
I’m sure you’ve probably heard that decluttering is good for your physical environment and your mind. But did you know that there are also levels of spiritual growth that happen when you declutter?
“Put your thoughts to sleep. Do not let them cast a shadow over the moon of your heart. Let go of thinking.”~ Rumi.
Life can feel daunting at times. Some unforseen situations can make our thinking go from peaceful to overwhelming in no time.
When overwhelm kicks in, the mind automatically goes into overthinking mode. Our mind has a built in fight or flight mechanism to protect us from danger. So some level of thinking, problem solving mentally is a natural response. But when it takes over your life, and all waking moments are full of overwhelm, thats when we need to reevaluate what is normal.
It’s in this overwhelming mode, that very detrimental life decisions are made, because the mind is so tired of overthinking, it often settles on the wrong solution. This is the reason all decisions should be made with a calm mind, not an overthinking one.
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.” ~ Buddha
In order to rewrite the mind positively we need to understand its composition. The mind is composed of three parts, the conscious, the subconscious and the superconscious.
The conscious mind is the part we are aware of – the part that does the thinking, worrying, planning and creating. It is a tiny part of the structure; it is the subconscious that is the looming bulwark, a massive entity with incredible powers and potentials. Its unique characteristic is that it can create anything that we command it to create, by virtue of the thoughts we think.
If you believe that you cannot achieve something, if you believe that you cannot have something, the subconscious will create conditions, so that your beliefs are proved. To transform your life, it is very important that you seek the help of the subconscious.
