After a long winter slumber spring is the time for growth. Snow melts, flowers that have napped under snow pop out of the ground and trees grow new leaves. This is also a great time for spiritual growth, cleaning out the mental attic of emotional baggage and start attracting that which serves you. Put on your gloves, get your duster and mop and let’s start spring cleaning!
Like the flower bulb buried under the snow, energetically winter is a time for rest and rejuvenation. Energetically this is a high time of the year and perfect to harness for growth. Releasing that which isn’t serving you is the first step to spiritual spring cleaning.
Mindful meditation is the first step to releasing past energies. It isn’t the quiet time but the skill of learning to quiet emotions when they arise that gives meditation its immense value. When an uncomfortable emotion rises, acknowledge it, thank it for coming and let it flow out. Meditation allows you to quiet your mind, the fight or flight response to painful emotions so you can sort it out and let it flow out of your conscious. I have used meditation to quiet the thousand synapses firing in my brain at any given moment for many years. I have a dedicated meditation page on my website that is running in the background as I write this, namyohorengekyo Om mani padme hum ओं मणिपद्मे ह, I find they all work perfectly well. Chant to your future – You can give it a try here
The second step in the spiritual spring cleaning is the hardest. Be honest with yourself. We have spent our whole lives suppressing feelings it is habit to run or stuff them down. How can you release something if you don’t face it? This is where the acknowledging the emotions as they arise comes into play. Feel your heart race and your muscles tense, flow with it and release it. Recognize the patterns and your body reaction when those emotions arise and accept your responsibility in the role of letting those patterns exist. Breaking harmful or destructive patterns is surprisingly difficult, though can be the most liberating thing you will ever do.
Once you see the patterns the following step is to forgive yourself. You are human. Be kind to that human. See yourself from another perspective, as if you are a person in a movie. If you can disassociate from ‘you’, even for a moment, it can be far easier to forgive ‘that person’ . Forgive yourself for holding those emotions and allowing them to rule the roost. Sweep them out the door now with love so you can move on and attract a better, life, job, relationship or whatever is holding you back.
Just like laundry and dirty dishes this is a routine that has to be repeated over and over. Patterns and habits are hard to break. It takes work. Releasing that negative energy is a daily task and often it has to be performed multiple times during the day, especially when different challenges arise that trigger residual emotions and patterns.
Finally set a routine for yourself. Key areas to focus on are meditating, allowing the brain to be quiet for whatever amount of time you can manage. Practice gratitude. When you find an emotion has surfaced and negativity creeping in, think of something that makes you grateful. You will notice a shift in energy right away. Ground yourself in nature. The earth has amazing energy and you can pull from this for strength. Unplug from technology. The constant bombardment of visual and auditory noise is deafening so wait 30 minutes before you turn on the TV or start your computer. Likewise avoid screens for at least an hour before bed.
Spiritual spring cleaning can help you let go of the old clutter in your brain and soul and allow you to accept the bounty the Universe offers for your future. Accept it, you know you deserve it.
