The Impact of My Surroundings ~
Posted on June 24, 2023 by Janaki Bakshi MCC, One of Thousands of Executive Coaches on Noomii.
The power of being in a space I love and one that is fully aligned with my soul has an immediate effect on my quality of life.
Have you ever considered the impact of your surroundings? My home and office space are conducive to nurturing me, challenging me and keeping me on track with who I am and where I want to go. Recognizing the impact that my home and office surroundings have on my emotional and physical health, my energy levels, my confidence, and my relationship to myself and my work, I created what I love and it inspires me everyday. Of course being clutter free as much as possible is the first step.
As I got rid of clutter, and created a soul-nourishing environment, it helped transform my life. I think clearer, work more efficiently, have fun while I do what needs to get done, feel relaxed and inspired, and love each day. Simple things like putting up pictures I love, playing soft inspiring music in the background, a vision board, fresh flowers and plants I love are examples of how I changed my space to create surroundings to support me. The energy in my space and surroundings needs to be nurturing, beautiful and inspiring to motivate me, which in turn leads to success. When they are, life seems to flow and I look forward to each day, no matter what the challenges or difficult tasks there may be to handle. There is a feeling of easy and lightness that is created by being in this environment.
Your space says a lot about your life. To understand what I mean, take a look around you in your home and office and consider this:
What do your surrounds say about you?
Do they reflect the essence of who you are?
If this space were to tell a story about your life, what story would it tell?
How does the space make you feel?
What have you been tolerating for too long?
What areas make you feel good? What areas make you feel bad? Why?
Would you clean out your whole space and start over?
If you are like most people, chances are your home or office is less soul nourishing that you’d like. The most common reason for this has to do with the amount of stuff in our lives. So many of us become numb to our surroundings and the sad truth is that a soulless home or office zaps our attention, time, and energy – which are essential for a well-lived and successful life. When you dedicate time and energy to creating a soul-nurturing environment you love, you give yourself an enormous gift. But don’t take my word for it, try it in the next month and see what happens!
How will you let your Brilliance Shine?
Wishing you an amazing life ~
