War is disturbing. Regardless of which "side" you're on, people are killing, people are being killed, and people are suffering. A recent poll in New York showed 47% for war, 49% against. This may be mirrored in your own environment. We are deeply divided, which means half people you encounter won't be agreeing with you, emotions are running high, and you may even be divided against yourself.

Acknowledge this is beyond your control. You can't solve problems of world; no one ever has. The only thing under your control is how you think about things, how you respond, what you do and say.

Limit your exposure. Keep up on news, but sitting in front of t.v. constantly for a blow-by-blow description isn't helpful. Distract yourself.

Find something you can do. Volunteer, help someone who's having a hard time coping or has a loved one serving on front, reassure your child, maintain a happy disposition at work.

Clutter is anything unfinished, unused, unresolved, tolerated or disorganized. Clutter is emotional constipation!

Letting go of something that no longer makes your heart sing, can mean letting go of a person, or something no longer relevant in your life. It can be part of a process of grieving, enabling you to move into your present and future.

Everyone has their own patterns of attracting abundance and blocking it. Do you recognize any of these?

1. Physical Clutter - Clutter is dead, stagnant energy and will block flow of energy in your life. The energy that flows around your home and office is like a river, bringing abundance and fortunate blessings in all areas of your life. When it comes across a pile or something you are tolerating it will get bogged down.

Ask yourself: Do I love it? Do I use it? Does it make my heart sing?

2. Purchasing clutter - If you make purchases when feeling angry, sad, stressed, fearful etc. you’re spending money to to suppress those feelings rather than feeling them and letting them go. This means emotional energy will attach itself to item and you will experience its vibration, even on an unconscious level whenever you look at, wear or use item.

These items will not make your heart sing and will not support your prosperity.

Are you ready to let them go? Are you ready to become a conscious shopper?

3. Growth creates clutter - As you make changes within yourself, more of your belongings will fit definition of clutter. Having urge to discard things in your home or office is a sign of you stepping more fully into yourself and your abundance.

If you don't address clutter, it will hold you where you were. If you are growing and changing you are continually creating clutter!

4. Unconscious clutter - Do you have beliefs that create conflict? Do you think you can't be wealthy AND care about people? Do you think you can't be successful working 4 days a week? These beliefs will be affecting your prosperity. Take time to re-examine them.
