For more then 40 years when I would spring clean my home it always looked like a bomb had gone off. I would start at one end of the house and work my way through cleaning and clearing as I went along. This would take about 3 days and it was always exhausting.
This morning I was ponding on the fact that I no longer do this. Now my home feels amazing most of the time, if I loose my connection to me then it is reflected in my home. The first place to collect a few things is the dinning room table. If don't stop and ask myself what is going on, it will start to run through the house. My dressing table may be the next or sometimes it can be as simple as not folding the washing when I get it of the line.
I used to be hard on myself about this, but I realised that I don't have to be perfect and when things are coming up for me this is how it can be reflected. I regularly feel the need to spring clean our home. It may be that I have been to a retreat or I can feel in myself that I have had a big shift and feel to re-imprint the house with a new energy. This morning it was the garbage bins, yesterday it was doing the floors. I no longer have this desperate feeling to Spring Clean the whole house. It is now just pockets that need a gentle lift and when I listen to my body there is no back up or overwhelm, just these gentle messages that keep my whole house running smoothly. Like we are evolving together.
