TASK:

Clean Out Your Wallet or Purse

A 5-Step Guide To Cleaning Your Wallet The Feng Shui Way

Step 1: Clean it out. 

To begin, remove everything that's in there, then, wipe down with a microfiber cloth that is slightly damp.

Step 2: Sort through what you have.

File any receipts you actually need to keep, if any. Decide to decline as many receipts as you can in the future and opt for receiving them digitally. Less paper clutter for you and less paper waste for the planet. Then, safely dispose of anything that's irrelevant (expired membership cards and credit cards, etc.) and decide on what is essential to put back inside. 

Don't forget about your physical cash, too. Straighten the notes, organise them by value, and keep them in order. In feng shui, everything, including money, is energy in its most basic form, so the better you treat your cash, the more it will respond favorably to attention.

Step 3: Store daily essentials in the most easy-to-access places in your wallet. 

Only carry the things you actually need with you. If you always reach for something, put it front and center. 

Step 4: Treat your wallet well.

Once you're done sorting through your wallet, don't just toss it back into a bag that's cluttered... plan to organise that next! Be grateful for your wallet and the abundance that it represents, and keep it organised.

Step 5: Make it more magical. 

Great energy tends to attract more great energy, so top off your wallet with a dose of positivity. You may want to write a few intentions on a small note card and store it with your cash. Or, if you're looking to reinforce a new belief about yourself and your worth, put that note in your wallet so it greets you every time you open it up.

“Feng shui tells us that free-flowing, dynamic, energy flows in spaces that are more harmonious and organised. So while a wallet may seem small, it can be the start of big, magnetic transformation..”
