Decluttering My Mind With a Daily Dose of Meditation

I can’t believe that it’s day 85 of my decluttering challenge. The sun shone again today and I was itching to get some more gardening done or sort out a drawer, cupboard, corner, shelf etc., but I just didn’t get the time.

It wasn’t until this afternoon that I realised that I’d left the lawnmower in front of the garage after mowing the lawn yesterday afternoon. No one stole it, ha ha, firstly because it’s a pretty safe area around here and secondly because no one is walking around anyway due to the current coronavirus pandemic. Thankfully, it also hadn’t rained overnight. My battered old lawn mower is now safely back in the garage.

What I did do though is foolishly glance beyond the door of the garage and my heart sank, so I quickly shut the door! That’s going to take a whole lot of weeks or maybe even months to sort through. Maybe I’ll go in there every day and take one item or box out, and bag up or bin the contents. It’s all been in there for so long I don’t think there’s much worth keeping.

On second thoughts, I shouldn’t get distracted with the garage. I will continue to focus on the house and garden otherwise I won’t see the progress around me every day.

As I looked around the house this evening, I saw lots that I could have started decluttering, but after a full days work, making dinner and clearing up, I just felt like going to bed a bit earlier.

As I was having a cuddle with my youngest teenage daughter, I said “I’m feeling tired, what shall I declutter this evening?” She said “Why don’t you declutter your mind.” I thought that was an absolutely perfect answer!

Synctuition Meditation

This evening I’m going to switch on my Synctuition meditation track a bit earlier than usual and declutter my mind. I have been doing this every night since I started the trial back in February. I signed up for year recently and really look forward to it every night. I’m 30% of the way through level 2 and tonight’s track is called ‘Time’. Here goes…

Until tomorrow…
