Getting a better flow

[Louise Lotz]

I am starting to get a better sense of flow - and have made great progress on the bedroom today - a large area of floor has now appeared. Some stuff has gone back there, but it looks a lot neater, at least it is in bags and tucked away.

Last week I cleared and sorted the drawers that hold most of my current clothing.

Today I have revisited these drawers and also the crazy piles of clothing.

I have sorted the coathangers and have hung up those things that need hanging.

I removed the posher coathangers and now have put back a couple of these to hold the smarter items of clothing.

Now I feel my energy has increased - I don't just feel weary when I walk in there.

There are now some good channels of energy opening up throughout the house.

So I can walk from room to room and not feel closed in and don't feel like dissociating.

I am also noticing where things are and where they belong and how they look.

In the office I have cleared some shelves, and I am also creating some areas for stationery.

In the desk drawer, I have put a cutlery divider that fitted there nicely and into this I am putting some of the office rulers and pens and things that sit on the desk and look untidy, like pencils, rulers and batteries. I need to work out how many of these I need in there and the rest can go.

Piles of unsorted papers are going into bags and can come back to be sorted one bag at a time. If anything is urgent I will get a letter in the post or something. Last week I recycled an enormous amount but it seems to be all over and I need to work hard on it.
