infuse your spirit ~ feng shui your life with jayme barrett

If you have fallen into a routine that doesn’t vary much from day to day, you may have accidentally turned your life on auto-pilot.

Do you find yourself getting up in the morning, gobbling down breakfast, rushing to work, coming home exhausted, eating dinner in front of the television and promptly falling into bed? You might even work out here and there, take a short vacation and visit with friends but your life feels automated, without much inspiration or passion.

Now is a perfect time to switch off the monotonous schedule, energize your life and revive your spirit! Five years from now, you don’t want to suddenly realize that you’ve been in robot mode without tending to your spirit. Your time on this earth is precious. Remember, you are the driver in the front seat so move a little to the left, take a right turn, shift into high gear, or slow down to admire the view. It’s essential to stimulate your mind, body and spirit so you can live a fulfilling life. 

You can step out of your comfort zone by taking small steps at home or big leaps abroad. Most importantly, you must take back the reins to create the life you’ve always dreamed about. Below are 20 ways to get moving in a more passionate, spirit-filled direction!

1)      Move your body by walking, dancing, doing yoga or anything that brings you joy and gets the blood and oxygen moving in your body.

2)      Take a different route to work each day.

3)      Clear clutter and move 20 things in your home to spark new ideas, behaviors and actions.
