Simple Steps Column

This time of year, spring fever begins with a vengeance. While you are waiting for winter to end, take the time to move out the old stagnant energy from your work place and home. Below are some simple steps you can take to create a peaceful, fresh environment:
Thoroughly clean with an environmentally friendly cleaning product. This will help remove the accumulated dust and debris from winter. I add a few drops of peppermint or lavender oil to the Shaklee cleaner I use. It makes cleaning much more enjoyable and leaves a wonderful scent in the room when I’m done.
Take care of clutter. I know I tend to let things pile up during the winter months both at home and work. Set aside a day to pack up anything unneeded or unwanted. Cleaning out cluttered drawers, desks, and closets really helps to renew your energy.
Gently scent your environment with aromatherapy oils and sprays. Savannah Moon makes a wonderful lavender mint room spray. Another favorite approach of mine is to use a few drops of my favorite essential oils in a diffuser.
Consider adding plants and crystals to clean the air and energy. I spoke to Corky Larson of Inner Harmony Wellness Center about how to use crystals to create a better energetic atmosphere. He recommended using Selenite crystals which can be placed around the room to “vacuum” out lower energies.
Play peaceful music. Listen to a nature sounds or other peaceful music to create the atmosphere you desire. My favorite artist is Enya.
It can be tough to get yourself motivated to take the steps needed to reenergize your environment, but the results are well worth the effort. Give it a try!
