Fall is a time for cleanup and harvest. When you live in a climate with changes in seasons, this is the time of year for a fall clean up! This is about getting the yard ready for the winter ahead. Raking up the fallen leaves, cutting back bushes so they can winter properly, cleaning out flower beds and baskets.

Are there other fall clean ups that are important? Absolutely, there is the clean up of your spaces, your mind,  and habits. We tend not to look at these too often until we are overwhelmed or burnt out. What if instead we did a fall clean up every year?

Fall is the perfect time to harvest all of the good and become really grateful for the blessings in our lives. This may not always be easy. You may be going through a period where life feels hard right now. I understand. I have been there.

Fall clean up is a beautiful gift you can give yourself. As you are cleaning up (spaces, your mind and habits) and looking for the things you are grateful for, you will find things in your life that you can leave behind, because they are no longer serving you. Make it into an annual celebration for yourself. I know when you do this your life will become lighter, more peaceful, and more joyful. From this place you can open to all the possibilities that are to come over the upcoming year.
