You might not know it, but there are things in your home hindering your crescita spirituale right now. It’s not just about clutter. It’s not as straightforward as a messy room.
These silent growth-killers are probably items you’ve entirely forgotten about.
They’re tucked away in a drawer or sitting in plain view, unnoticed.
So, here are 10 things you should remove from your house immediatamente.
9. Scented Candles
If candles are new spiritual territory for you, it’s time to do some research.
Not all candles are safe; some can be more toxic than your ex.
Precisely, avoid candles that use paraffin wax.
It’s distilled from petroleum, which is a by-product of gasoline production.
Burning paraffin is a surefire way to release dangerous chemicals into the air.
And, sometimes, the fragrance itself can be more toxic than the wax.
What type of candles are safe, then? We suggest pure beeswax candles.
Whatever your pick, make sure to do your research beforehand.
8. Single-Use Plastics
Single-use plastics cover a range of household items. No matter how environmentally conscious you are, chances are, they can still be found somewhere in your home.
Everything about single-use plastics goes against the very principles of spirituality.
It hurts the world. So, it hurts you.
From bottles to straws, single-use plastics can be found ovunque.
The modern world desperately relies on them, but that doesn’t mean you should, too.
Eliminating single-use plastics from your home is a one-way ticket to chiarezza.
It’s the perfect way to promote a more spirituale e consapevole stile di vita.
7. Paperwork
Boxes and boxes of paperwork make a house a home, don’t they?
You’ve got everything from birth certificates to expired warranties.
Once in a blue moon, you get inspired and tidy it all up – organize it.
Fast-forward a month or two, and it’s a mess again. Rinse and repeat.
Paperwork drains your energia. Yes, even if kept out of sight.
It’s even worse if you’re consciously holding onto paperwork you don’t really need.
You hear this little voice telling you to keep it safe, you know, just in case.
And as the paperwork piles up, your energy keeps dropping.
So, this is your sign to dive into that documentation hellhole and clean it up.
You’ll feel so much spiritually lighter when you’re done.
6. Things Left Unfinished
You know that painting you started and didn’t finish?
It’s now in a corner, staring at you menacingly.
Every incomplete passion project is a source of energia negativa.
Seeing it always makes you feel bad. Maybe you’re short on time. Or maybe you’re low on energy. All valid reasons. But, the thing is, your brain doesn’t care about excuses.
The things you never finish will always haunt you.
You can hide it, sure. You can get rid of it.
But, now and then, your mind will wander and remind you.
The only way to cleanse this negative energy is to finish what you have started.
And it doesn’t matter if it’s a book or even a simple household chore.
5. Broken Things You’ve Gotten Used To
A squeaky door handle. A burned-out lightbulb you never replaced.
We all have things in our homes we put up with rather than repair.
We’ve become so used to them that we no longer even notice them.
But these unfixed things disturb us on a livello subconscio.
What’s worse, some of these issues could be fixed in just five minutes.
Yet, you keep telling yourself you’ll handle it one day – and never do.
So, this is your reminder. Set aside a day to fix these broken things in your home.
Your soul will thank you for it.
4. Clothes, Clothes, Clothes
Is your wardrobe packed full, outright bursting with clothes?
You know you’ll likely never wear most of them, but choose to keep them anyway.
Go through your wardrobe and see what you’ve worn in the past year.
You’d be shocked by how much clothing you have that’s, well, just sitting there.
Decluttering your wardrobe and tidying up is basically meditativo.
You’re not just decluttering the wardrobe; you’re decluttering your mente.
You’ll feel so much better when you’ve cleared out what you don’t really need.
Besides, you can always donate clothes to charity!
3. Pictures and Gifts from Your Ex
If you have a memory box, you likely hold onto keepsakes from past relationships.
You probably have a bunch of photographs, too.
While it’s nice to reminisce, these keepsakes can also hinder your growth.
In other words, they can keep you chained to the past, unable to move forward.
And, for that reason, it can be so difficult to let go.
But if these photographs evoke negative emotions – it’s time to act.
Your mental health comes first. And the feeling of letting go is always blissful.
2. Books You Know You’ll Never Read
You probably have books lying around that you know you’ll never read.
Maybe you got a few chapters in and never picked them up again. Or maybe you don’t ever intend to. But seeing it there, almost teasing you, can be spiritually draining.
You want to read them just to have done so.
But you never get around to it. There’s always something going on, right?
Well, not all books need to be read. But for those you want to, but never do – consider gifting them away to a friend. It’s much better than to have them collecting dust.
1. Unnecessary Duplicates
We all keep things around in case something breaks.
But, little by little, it all adds up to a big mess.
Clothes, towels, kitchen appliances – you name it.
We even forget to get rid of old things when we buy new ones to replace them.
But most things you can do away with (and should) without any regrets.
Otherwise, these things will clutter not just your home – but your mind.
