Strengthening Your Internal Home

Many of us put so much focus and time into preparing our home, making it look good, cleaning it, decluttering it, organising it, rearranging it. It's what many do to feel better about ourselves, about our world...for a moment. There is always something to do in our home, we FEEL there is always something to do in our home, we make sure there is ALWAYS something to do in your home. And although living in an environment that is clear and feels good is great and all, what about your internal home, doesn't that deserve to be worked on just as much, if not more. Ask yourself, how much time and focus do you put into your internal home, into yourself? How much time do you spend preparing yourself, making yourself feel good, clearing things internally that just don't work for you anymore, decluttering your mind, rearranging the beliefs you've held onto for so long (that may not be yours after all) Again, many work on the external things around them, before even thinking about, caring about, their internal home. Many of you believe there is no time to spend on yourself, when really, you're just not making time for yourself. Many of you are putting everything else, the home you live in, your external home before yourself, before your internal home. Your body is the one home you will live with forever, yet it seems to be the last that is cared for, nurtured. Creating the time and space to strengthen your internal self will have a huge impact on so many other areas of your life. The way you deal with the relationships in your life, The way you do the work you really want to do, The way you parent, The way you see the world, The way you see the people in the world, The way you move through your day, They way you see yourself when you look in the mirror. If you're so tired in how your world is at the moment, then now may just be the time that you start to work on you internal home, on yourself. Build that strong foundation that is within you, honour and respect yourself enough to do the work. Why are you avoiding it...because it seems too hard? Because it feels like too much effort? Because you think you don't have any time? It intrigues me just how much time, effort and money people put into short term fixes, short term satisfactions rather than putting time, effort and money into long term gains for themselves. Life will continue as it is unless you choose to do things differently for yourself. Building that internal foundation is so much bigger than just strengthening you, it has a huge impact on the generations below you, the generations that are your children, your grandchildren.
