Clearing Your Energetic Closet

Posted on 29. Jun, 2010 by in The Goo Blog

Have you ever had an article of clothing that you did not want to get rid of even though it no longer looked good or fit you?  Maybe there were even holes worn in it?  It really does not serve you anymore but you are so attached to it that you resist letting it go.

We sometimes do the same thing with the energies in our lives.  Perhaps it is the energy from a past relationship, work environment or school or family.  This energy no longer serves you, in fact it is restrictive like a piece of clothing that you have long since out grown.  When you have it on you feel confined.

We hate hearing that we have to choose what we want by a certain date because after that date we can’t change our choice.  Even if our right to change is restricted for only a year, like with health insurance, we are uncomfortable with this limitation.

Change is why we are here in this life.  I mean, what would be the point of living if we never changed?  We would just be a bunch of little, uncoordinated, inarticulate bundles of human.  If we did not change, we would be new born babies our entire life. (more…)
