The ideal, is to create an environment that evokes and draws out the life that you are presently leading, allowing the past, the future, and the present to come together so you can BE... as you wish.
Thus, what images and visuals that surround you, ideally should bring about simplicity, and also powerful and strong positivity, depending on what your intentions are in life. Instead of acquiring new, updated images, photographs, instead release old images, and simplify your environment. Let your eyes see ideas you want to see, so as to implant the meanings behind the image into your conscious being. Let go of the emotional connections to images.
Let the objects in your environment comfort you. Make you feel the positive aspects of a traditional concept of home, comfy, warm, peaceful, relaxed, life together with family and friends, in your habitat. Yet be aware, the attachments to the objects we hold onto, we also have an attachment to. We live with abundance and excess. Release, surrender, and let go of objects you have acquired that is part of your excess. These objects fill in, and perhaps even overflow your environment, clog it, limit the amount of space you have to grow... give yourself some room to grow, and let go of those things that have become weight on your being. Learn to enjoy your life, and your environment, with less, more simply.
Can you fulfill all of your desires in your home? And can you release the negatives, healthily? What are your passions, and what are the fixes that bring you to 'yucky' mental places? Let your environment nurture both, support them.
You are living in this environment, thus let it nurture that life. Bring in plants; sprout and grow life, as you sprout and grow in your own. Let the life that truly keeps you alive be intimately part of your process- in your environment.
And how do you maintain it? Do you keep it clean and organized? To cleanse is to nurture; and to keep our living environment clean and organized is to nurture the facilitation to exist, perhaps to grow... definitely to live. To clean is to release, let go of the past, let go of the remains of the past- goods, bad’s, everything’s. This gives room to flow in the present, with a clear path.
What do you do to nurture the sound, your aural experience of your environment? Do you like the silence? (i hope you can experience silence in your environment? It is nice to receive a break from aural stimulation, to experience a sound without send. It is also lovely to experience sound... Let the silence and sound enter your body, enter your mind, enter your spirit. Let the music or sound you invite into your environment be reflective or nurturing of your general life intentions.
The words and sounds and images, scents and objects and all forms of nourishment that you absorb, become mirrored in your being, and you can choose, what life you absorb, and reflect, in nurturing your environment.
