1. free from harshness or roughness and being in tune
2. free from what vitiates, weakens or pollutes: containing nothing that does not properly belong
Do you know what I love most about these definitions? They both begin with the words "free from". By striving to be pure in my mind, body and spirit I am setting myself free. Free from negative self talk, and the inability to become the very best I can.
Project pure:
- Once a week eat completely clean. Fresh, homemade yumminess.
- Once a week declutter my surroundings. Give it away, throw it away. We have way too much stuff, and it's causing some impure thoughts.
- The rest of the time be aware of when I feel those grumpy thoughts flowing and change them into happy ones.
This plan is up for revision. I will report what I eat and how I am making changes. If nothing else this blog really is great for some accountability. I ate better today than I have in three months.
Rinda-what do you say to yourself when you feel grumpy thoughts to help you be happier and nicer to yourself AND those around you?
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of decluttering on a regular basis. Sometimes I get so overwhelmed by all of our "stuff" but I can't seem to get a handle on it. Simon and I have tried to have a "15 minute clean up time" each night. It helps me motivate Simon and have a focused cleaning time. We almost always end up cleaning longer. It feels good. I think I might have to set up a weekly date to declutter. Thanks for the idea. And thanks for sharing your journey.
