5 Ways To Interweave Spiritual Design For A Healthy Home
Here are five ways to interweave spiritual design into a home for a healthier and more harmonious environment:
Mindful Use of Natural Elements: Incorporate natural elements such as wood, stone, water features, and plants to create a calming atmosphere. Earthy materials connect the space to nature and promote a sense of grounding and tranquility.
Sacred Space Creation: Dedicate an area for meditation, prayer, or reflection. This could be a small altar, a quiet reading nook, or a serene corner with soft lighting, candles, and spiritual objects that hold personal significance.
Intentional Color Choices: Use colors that promote emotional well-being and balance. Soft, neutral tones like beige, soft greens and blues evoke peace, while warm tones like deep reds and oranges add energy and vitality. Choose colors that resonate with your spiritual goals.
Cleansing Rituals with Smudging or Crystals: Incorporate rituals to cleanse and refresh your home’s energy. Using sage or Palo Santo for smudging, placing healing crystals like amethyst or rose quartz around the house, and keeping salt lamps can help balance energy and create a positive vibe.
Incorporating Symbolism and Art: Decorate your home with symbols that resonate with your spiritual beliefs, whether religious, metaphysical, or cultural. Art that reflects inner peace, growth, and love can enhance the spiritual atmosphere and inspire mindfulness in daily life.
These elements, combined, create a holistic and spiritually enriching environment for any space within your home or office.

Let’s be truthful, clutter makes us feel crappy. That’s why, every year, after the big ball drops, oodles – oodles and oodles of us vow “this year we will get organized,” Fist pumps in the air, the family high-fiving each other. But, as days, weeks, and months go by and we resume our daily routines, the motivation to declutter tends to diminish. Perhaps your inner ‘neat freak’ merely needs the incentive to jump-start the organizing process.
Do you have too much clutter lying around? Do you have tripping hazards? such as tripping over toys in the middle of the night. Nevertheless, clutter causes many internal problems which – although less obvious than the Lego maze spread across your family room floor – are quite impactful on your life.
Putting in the effort of getting organized, especially if this organization extends to multiple areas of your life, can help reduce stress and anxiety levels long term by requiring less last-minute scrambling in a variety of directions in everyday situations. It can also feel empowering, so you can experience new situations as “exciting” rather than “stressful.”
HEALTH BENEFITS OF BEING ORGANIZED:
*Boost your energy and productivity
*Reduce stress & anxiety
*Sleep better
*Lose weight
*Improve your financial health
Clutter happens to all of us at one time or another and regaining control over the chaos can be challenging. Fortunately, science has shown getting organized has so many health benefits. Making small changes and successive improvements in one area can lead to positive effects in other areas. For example, less stress means a better night’s sleep. This just might be the motivation you need to kick your organizing goals into high gear.
Check out the three Organize & Coach Packages that are available now.
I have focused my organize + coachwork on busy professionals that have struggled with chronic disorganization throughout their whole life. My clients and I work together to understand their challenges and to identify, and strategize along with learning new skills and habits.

$75 / hour 60 – 90 – 180 minutes sessions
Walk & Talk Strategy
A 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hour Walk & Talk Strategy Session will provide clarity and a written step-by-step strategy for getting organized. We begin with an interview and an examination of the spaces of concern, then continue with an evaluation of various organizing options and product recommendations (if needed). I can provide a sketch of the future layout as part of this package and would also be pleased to advise you on how to work with an assistant or temporary help in order to achieve your organizing goals.

The Spring and Fall Seasons are the best times for releasing and letting go in all areas. In the Spring we like to detoxify our bodies, minds and moods, as well as our surroundings. Preparing for new growth that comes with this energetic and vibrant season. The release of excess baggage, whether it’s extra weight from a sedentary Winter or mounts of clutter in our living spaces.

Our homes are mirrors of ourselves. They reflect our importance, our character, or indecision, our spirit and our desires. Our homes tell a story about how we feel about ourselves and the world around us. A home is more than just a place to lay your head and seek comfort from the elements. Your home IS A BEING, it’s the essential nature of how we combine our spirit and soul to attract energy or drive away energy.
Everything is Energy – if your home is full of clutter it is driving away good energy. Your home is not separate from you, it is an evolving Being of you, and the home members. Learning to bond with your living spaces can contribute to creating a life that is balanced and in harmony with the positive energy of all that surrounds you.
Here is the process I have used for the last 20 years to help clients sort through their clutter and bring back the positive energy into their space, and find the Being of the home. As you are going through each zone (areas) of the home – Pick up each object, make a decisionof Trash, Keep or Recycle box. There are going to be items that will need to be transported to others zones, they need to be placed inside the Transit box. At the end of sorting in that zone, take the transit box and relocate the items to the decided zones. If any of these areas are already full because you haven’t cleared the clutter yet – leave the items in the Transit box until you complete those zones.
Decide now that everything that takes up the space in your home has to have a valid purpose of Being there. Ask yourself “Does it pass the Clutter-Test?”
The Clutter-Test
Does it lift my energy when I think about it or look at it?
Recognizing whether you feel energized or not is the most reliable part of the clutter test. Your mind will invent all kinds of excuses so that you get to hang on to the stuff, but your body knows the truth and never lies. Trust the feeling in your body!
Do I absolutely love it?
If so, does it inspire me or is it just nice? Do I already have enough of this type of item for my needs? Does it have sad association in my life?
Is it genuinely useful?
If so, when did I actually last use it? (I have a one year rule) When will I realistically use it again?
Is It Safe To Let Go
Repeat to yourself as you sort through your items, “It’s safe to let go“. Clearing clutter is about letting go and trusting the process of life to bring you what you need when you need it. Anything you are keeping for those “just in case” moments, you are keeping out of fear. If you have a lot of clutter, you may need to go through this process several times before you feel ready to ‘let go’ of some things.
In the past, I have had a few clients wanting this process to go quickly – having a hard time making decisions of letting go and getting frustrated with themselves. They would then keep canceling our organizing sessions making it even harder for when we would have to restart the sorting process. I finally would convince them that working in a positive – small – forward motion worked better than consistently restarting the process. I would suggest 2 Organizing Sessions / Per Month for a year. They would be surprised by the compounding effect of getting rid of the clutter at each session, most of the time it would take less than a year to clear clutter from their home.
At the end of the clutter-clearing process, not only will you be able to breathe easier, but your home will have a new life and a new BEING.
