It happens on occasion… this desire to clear away the clutter. Weed out the unused and the stagnant. To clear out anything that isn’t nourishing, supporting, inspiring. I’m talking about stuff, of course. But I’m also talking about food. Thoughts. Activities and habits. Anything in my realm that’s occupying time, energy, space, cells. All those things… my time, my energy, my space, every molecule that makes up my body and that of those around me… are just feeling really precious to me right now. And the urge to preserve their integrity is so strong right now. I want to clear through everything in my house, our yard, the car, my computer. My fridge, and my eating habits. I want to spend time and energy only on those things that make my loved ones and I feel brilliant and staggeringly beautiful, strong and so powerfully at ease. I want our life to support the healthy tension between choice and flow.
I don’t know if it’s because Spring is coming up quickly? I find that I’ve grown more sensitive to the changing of seasons as the years go by. Or if it’s a side effect of this new way of eating I’ve been diving into over the past couple weeks… I think the almost dizzying effects of eating real food is starting to set in.
I’m not sure what the cause is… but this is where I am now. And why I’ve been a little absent from this space, perhaps. I’m trying to rediscover the areas where I want to remain devoted to. And redistribute a little, so that my actions are more intentional than habitual.

This is so beautifully written. I couldn’t have said it better and I couldn’t agree more! I bet part of it is spring and a big part may be the elimination diet. For me dietary improvements have always been a huge catalyst for change in all other areas.
