Hi, welcome back to clearing mental clutter. This is week two. I hope you enjoyed weeks one, practice and journaling and affirmations. And I hope that you're feeling inspired and optimistic to continue to move forward because I know I am for you. This week's affirmation is all about simplicity. So last week, we focused on getting honest with ourselves with life with others.

So this week is all about clearing out the clutter, literally looking at life and saying, okay, where is it that I can step back and kind of maybe decompress a little bit, live without too much access. And so I've written a couple things I love to share with you and then hopefully share some of my experiences that may inspire you for this week. So simplicity is the result of simplifying, making simple. When we when there's chaos, it can be difficult To see clearly an honor, where I likely need some decluttering. So I'm going to stop right there, because that's really a statement right there. When we're in chaos, it's often a sign that we need decluttering.

So if you look at your life right now, and you are feeling out of sorts out of control, like nothing seems to be going your way. Is there a need to declutter? I know for me, I'm just going to get really honest with you, in my personal life, because my husband and I are both business owners. There is a lot of stuff going on in our household. And as a result, a lot of times our hosting get messy, and not just like messy but messy. And this starts to wear out after a while and not only me, but I noticed that wearing on my husband, and on my kids, we don't know where things are.

There's nowhere to sit and have a bowl of cereal. We're tripping over toys, and literally my personal life was too Feeling like it was in constant chaos. And the truth of the matter is, in order to simplify my life, that was where I had to start. And sometimes the simplifying is all the most simple things. I just needed to clean my house. I needed to take the time to look at the things that we're laying around and saying, what are we doing with this?

Where does this go? Does it need a whole? Does it need a new home? Is this broken? Am I Why am I keeping this? Do I need to declutter my pantry cabinets, clean my fridge, pick up the toys off the floor, what toys do we need?

What toys Do we need to give away? And in doing this, I really felt this personal freedom and just a clarity for me to be able to create and inspire and raise my children in a healthy environment. Where I started from doing that on a personal level is that have I went down to my office in my basement, and I started to really look at the stuff that I was keeping taxes out from 2014 Hello, I need to put that stuff away papers where it's like why am I keeping this to these need to be filed away. It's hard for us to create and to live and to motivate if we ourselves are living in chaos. Now, you may not be a yoga teacher and inspire others for a living like I do each day, but you are doing that in your own way and in your own lifestyle or job.

So, we're in your life, you need some decluttering get honest with yourself, meaning and trust are more ask someone else where you can use a little bit more sprucing up. And you may be happy with what you hear in the fact that it's honest and it's real. And now it's up to you to do the work. In addition to that, it can be often difficult for us to reach our dreams and goals and desires if we're constantly tripping over things and I'm not just talking in a physical form. I'm talking in a mental, emotional and spiritual form as well. Where do you need to get clear?

Where's that you need to simplify things? Are you going 50 million places trying to live the best life possible but as a result, you're just chasing from point A to point B or point senior so on and so forth. Never really enjoying that what you're doing. So many of us, especially Americans, run fall to the victimization of feeling more equals better. And when I mean victimization is that we are led to believe that if we have more, we will be happier, we will be more successful. And I cannot tell you enough, that that is further from the truth.

When we cut back, when we reduce, when we simplify, are able to see the small joys in life that really are they worth taking time with our kids and just playing a board game care that you have all these great big lavish things that just want to be loved and feel loved. When I look at my business, and I really hone in on what it is, I'm good at what it is my staff is good at and we offer quality products. Rather than trying to offer everything I signed up the studio runs much more efficiently. And my message is so much more clear to my students as a result. And as a result, I'm happier, I'm more content, and I can continue to move forward in my life with the ultimate clarity that I'm looking for and searching for. So wherever you are in your life today, let's simplify whether that's decluttering your house, whether that's looking at all the tasks that you do on a daily basis and ask yourself, do I really need to be doing all those things, whether it's clean out your wardrobe, whether it's cleaning out your friend, your closet, whatever it is, once you get honest with yourself, you can start simplifying your life as you say Start to simplify your life, you can start to feel the freedom that you deserve.

All right. Good luck this week, and we'll see you next week for week three. Make sure that you work with my personalized yoga practice for you and you do the journaling on a daily basis. From my heart to yours from my soul to yours. We'll see you soon. Never say
