The last three years have brought us increasing experiences of chaos. These are complex times and the stress levels for many are off the charts. We are feeling like we just can’t deal with our circumstances or we feel powerless to change them, so we have instead begun to heavily COPE with our lives.  Coping is a concept that I feel compelled to explore more at a later date.

So, why are we so stressed? Well….. from working from home to on-line schooling of our kids, to making sure that all our loved ones are cared for, to ensuring the bills are paid, to shortages of food/supplies, to fears being fed to us such as virus’, war and our futures.  We are so energetically spent that we have nothing left.  We are barely coping to get by.

It is no coincidence that as I am writing about simplifying to disempower chaos, my day has been one big chaos sh*t show. 

It is time to stop coping because we are at our stress level breaking point.

It is time to simplify to disempower our chaotic lives.

It is time to take conscious action to begin co-creating a life in which we are not required to “cope” and instead can begin to enjoy.

There are things in our world that need conscious action for us in order to change, but we can barely manage our own stuff. How can we begin to take on the bigger problems or concerns we see right now.

Before we can even get to simplification, we need to look at ourselves a bit.

Vital to the process of simplification is the ability to be true to who we are.  What do you value? What matters to you? Your authenticity is key. When you know yourself well, you can make choices about what gets to stay in your life and what needs to go. 

Let’s look at some places where we can simplify.

4 Primary Life Areas:

(Tip: Look at these for both your personal world and business!)

1 - Home - (Your spiritual oasis)

• Only purchase what you must have

• Go through your home room by room

• Clear out/declutter what you don’t absolutely love

• Donate or sell what you can let go of

• If your home is too large to handle, consider downsizing

• Organize what you choose to hold onto

• Create a nightly routine of picking up so you start your day fresh

• Remember that clutter makes anxiety worse

2 - Personal Relationships – (Your heart energy exchangers)

Look at each one:

• Is it important to you?

• Do you need to focus more on it?

• Who in your life do you need to pull your focus away from?

• Look at your social media time and unplug from your phone and/or computer at a certain point in the day.

• Really consider what you are committed to. Do you need to be?

• Stop saying yes when you want to say no.

3 - Finances (One expression of abundance)

• What “stuff” do you have that you don’t “need” that you are paying for?

• What is ready for you to sell?

• What can you consolidate?

4 - Self (Soul-led)

• Look at how you are using your time. Can you be more efficient?

• Are your routines actually creating stress?

• Spend time in quiet and meditation

• Focus on the “now”

• Stop multi-tasking

• Create white space in your day so that when something comes up, you can immediately deal with it instead of adding it to a to-do list

• Practice finding joy in the little things

What will this simplification bring for us?  When we simplify our lives, we lift our energy out of the dense experiences of overwhelm and chaos.  It frees us from the grip of coping through our lives.

Three Things to Know in This Month’s Energy

1. Recenter. The Picean new moon brings in flow for your empathic side.  The “feels” will kick in.  Your upleveled version of you is here; be it.  Walk your talk. The Superior Conjunction of Jupiter on 3/5, where the earth and sun effectively block out Jupiter will bring in a massive amplification of all that is in your awareness.  Grace is being called forward.  See with a higher vision.

2. We continue in the bridging experience of the crystalline full moons from 2/16 through 4/16. So this month remains an activation time for the light within you.  Your Divine mastery presence is activated and is being called forward. What awarenesses are you navigating based on the choices from last month? This is a power month requiring higher levels of consciousness to emerge. Ascension symptoms will kick up again. 

3. The spring equinox is here on 3/20-3/21. Balance calls us in to see that we are one in consciousness.  Unity is seeking to birth through the neutral flow into harmony. Remember that we are all ONE. Division and separation may be in your awareness. Will you see it as your reality or will you choose another way? Peace is possible.
