Changing our inner environments

\\     Even as the seasons change around us we can still feel stagnant and discontent on the inside. Nature reminds us that every thing is in flux, that it is important to be flexible and that change is the only constant. So what do we do when it feels like we are in a rut? Like nothing is shifting or changing for us? When we are bored or unhappy with the status quo? Boredom and restlessness are clear indicators of the need for change. Sometimes we may feel frustrated, irritated or even depressed when change needs to happen. Often when we feel this way, the first thing we do is start to change our external environments. When we are tempted to reorganize our homes, de-clutter our closets, end relationships or get a new hair cut we can recognize it as an effort to change our inner experience. These things boost us for a little while, but lasting change comes from changing your inner environment.
Finding harmony and balance in your internal life, creates it in your external life. We must make inner change to transform our outer experience. 
Here are somethings that can help change your inner environment:
Meditation
Positive Affirmations
A Daily Gratitude Journal
Looking for the Positive in Your Life
Uplifting Music
Aromatherapy
Smiling
Resolving External Conflicts
Self Care
Movement, Dance, Exercise
Going Outside
Connecting with a Friend
​
 You may still need to break up with someone, freshen up your look or re-arrange the furniture....and de-cluttering is always a good idea. However, doing your internal work first will allow you to be more intentional about your external experience.
As always, I am here for you if you need support or guidance as you do your work. Blessings on your journey.
