Last night I led a discussion on spiritual de-cluttering and making room for clear, concise, conscientious and aware living, moment by moment, without getting wrapped up in all the stuff that surrounds us.
Emotional clutter is taking in all the emotions around you and making them a part of you.
Spiritual clutter can be a multitude of things, including taking on issues/moral values of others and feeling burdened by them. It could also be feeling not clear about your intention or purpose in life.
Clutter can also be a negative field of energy around you.
Sometimes important life-changing decisions stir up feelings inside you and you feel at a state of unrest.
Is an emotional state of being also a spiritual state of being?
Clutter is not seeing your own sense of power.
Awareness is the key to clearing your life of physical, emotional, and/or spiritual clutter.
Clean your physical clutter and see if you're still feeling unsettled. Maybe you need to clean your internal house?
Many times spiritual clutter can be unintentionally hurting ourselves and beating ourselves up over past mistakes or not feeling good enough or feeling like a failure: "No other external environmental stuff is so important that I as a spiritual being should beat myself up over it."
"I'm the God of my world--and nothing out there is worth beating myself up about."
Ask yourself, "What purpose does this situation serve?" "What purpose does this state of being serve?" "What am I creating now?"
I'm the God of my own creation--am I a good God, a bad God, a loving God?
"I create love in myself. What's my big story?"
In life, you are given what you can handle. Clearing clutter is a process.
Be honest with yourself about yourself and what you can handle. Others may need to adjust to this. Let them.
Create a clear, concise purpose of who and what you are. Stay focused and motivated.

Namaste. Blessed be.
