Today’s show is a deep dive into receiving rule number 3. Patty has talked about the 5 rules of receiving before. Rule 3, which is clearing space to make space for magic, is the topic for today’s show.  

Clear spaces energetically feel good. A clean desk, a tidy closet, an organized pantry can all help. Patty shares why clearing clutter (defined as anything in your space that doesn’t feel good to you) can help you open to the messages and gifts from the Divine.  

Here’s why we sometimes end up with things that aren’t helpful for us:  

• Clutter often is the result of over-giving. Physical things can pile up until we take time to make ourselves a priority.  
• Sometimes we’re attached to things that were given to us by family or were meaningful at one time but don’t serve us now.  
• There are times when we hold on to things out of obligation to others or the desire to do what others want us to do.  

If you are carrying something for someone else and it’s not what you want, that does not benefit your energy.  

Patty encourages you to go slowly. It’s okay to be mindful as you go and it’s helpful to make clearing bite sized. Trying to do a massive clearing of the entire basement (for example) can set you up for exhaustion. 

Many of us have a complicated system for papers and it makes it hard to keep the paper clutter under control. The key is making it simple. Easy wins are always better than a complex system that you can’t keep up with.  

Lastly, take care of yourself. Clutter is often a result of caring for others and giving so much that you are neglecting yourself. Having a clear space is a tangible way to feel the energy of receptivity and abundance.  

Coming up in the Magic Lounge we are going to do a clutter-clearing exercise the week of July 4. Join us!
