As the end of the year is coming so quickly, I feel that we need to make a conscious decision to slow down and not get caught up in Christmas mania. I have added some lyrics of a song which I love by “Click on Colour”. Slow it down cause you’re always at a million miles an hour. Their myspace link is on the right of my blog page so you can listen to some of the songs.
It is a good time of year to unclutter space around you. Start small, perhaps in a drawer or work area which you often use. Remove everything that does not serve you anymore and either throw or give away. Clean the space and as you return your items, notice how you feel. Satisfied that you have finally gotten to that job, more in control, lighter in spirit as the clutter has gone and it feels good to minimize?
Go one step further and add some calming fragrance or oils or candles around your area, my favorite is lavender, and perhaps treat yourself to some flowers. Take moments at random times during the day to stop and focus on your breathing. As you breath out, exhale any stress or anxiety that you may been holding onto. Focus on taking a deep breath in, hold and exhale till you can go no more, all old stale air expelled. Do this for 3 or 4 breaths. Whatever it may take for you to “slow it down” make a conscious effort to do it.

Enjoy the coming weeks and don’t loose sight of what is truly important.
