Spiritual Housecleaning Notes

I have been slowly cleaning house...going through boxes of Parker's and notes and throughout out stuff and filing other stuff. I came across some notes I took while reading Kathryn L.Robyn's "Spiritual Housecleaning":

P.9. "Attending to your rooms is a way of attending to your soul."

Kitchen=hearth, nurture others

Bathroom=purification, preparation (like ancient temples)

bedroom=renewal, sleep, dream, read, sex

Living room=contact with the culture at large,plus communion with the soul

P.10  "way to inner peace is through the work of daily maintenance."

Cleaning is like healing..."Cleaning creates an empty space where something new-life-can happen, leaving a free area for a fresh approach.
