Good morning, Beth. How are you today? Good morning, Melissa. I'm
Beth Hewitt:good. The sun is shining. Spring has
Beth Hewitt:sprung. I think my daffodils are coming
Beth Hewitt:up. I've got my tulips out. Spring is trying to
Melissa Amos:spring, isn't it? It is. So I've been doing
Beth Hewitt:a bit of decluttering, which I think a lot of people do with this time
Beth Hewitt:of year as well. So letting go of the old and
Beth Hewitt:allowing space for the new to come in. So that's what I've been up to,
Melissa Amos:really. Well, that makes sense why this morning I had this sudden
Melissa Amos:urge to go around. It's like that song
Melissa Amos:collecting your jar of hearts. I literally picked up all
Melissa Amos:my, like, empty jars. I saved them. I work with this healer.
Melissa Amos:She makes all these balms and the lotions and I give her. I have
Melissa Amos:a lot of, like, blue bottles from Neil's yard and they're really
Melissa Amos:good at stopping the sun, like, getting in and all of that. And so I
Melissa Amos:keep them all, but they get scattered around. And this morning, pick them all
Melissa Amos:up, put them all in a bag, and I'm like, oh, I'm going to get
Melissa Amos:them ready for my friend in it. So maybe there's a decluttering
Melissa Amos:thing going on, maybe. Yeah,
Beth Hewitt:like pruning and cutting back and gathering and nesting and
Beth Hewitt:all of the things. So, yeah, I like that energy. I think sometimes it can
Beth Hewitt:feel like an effort to do that, but then other times it can feel like
Beth Hewitt:today I want to sprinkle in kind of thing. Right? That feels like the order
Beth Hewitt:of the day. It's really interesting, I think, when we really
Melissa Amos:dip into our bodies cues and our
Melissa Amos:inspirations and our thoughts that we can
Melissa Amos:tell. I have a story that I hate cleaning. I
Melissa Amos:like, hate. I'm like, everything. And
Melissa Amos:so I tell myself that story, but sometimes I get this
Melissa Amos:urge, like, it's more to do it. And
Melissa Amos:we have a choice, don't we? At this point, we either go back to a
Melissa Amos:story like, oh, no, I hate that. Or we do it and
Melissa Amos:then somehow it helps us feel more
Melissa Amos:energized. And that story can
Melissa Amos:park itself for the days where I do not like
Melissa Amos:clean. Yeah, maybe I should change it to most of the time.
Melissa Amos:Some of the time, I don't like cleaning. I know what you
Beth Hewitt:mean. I'm not a big cleaner. It's not my thing.
Beth Hewitt:But there's something of clarity that comes with
Beth Hewitt:decluttering and cleaning. And I think sometimes when we're feeling a bit
Beth Hewitt:stuck or in that busy energy that actually just stopping and
Beth Hewitt:clearing the decks is actually a really good way just to allow
Beth Hewitt:new inspiration to come in, allow new things to come in, like physical objects and
Beth Hewitt:people and all of these things. So it's a good thing to
Beth Hewitt:do. But, yeah, should we be, and I don't think it matters, but
Beth Hewitt:should we be led by when we feel like we need to do that? Or
Beth Hewitt:should we be carving that space out in our diaries regularly so that we
Beth Hewitt:can really cultivate that power? But then
Beth Hewitt:it starts to become more of a habit and something that we might want to
Beth Hewitt:do or might not. Want to do, I can't ever imagine. I
Melissa Amos:think that if I had that diet, that would be the thing that got
Melissa Amos:the same. But I do have
Melissa Amos:my space here, and last week I was teaching Reiki, so
Melissa Amos:I had all my Reiki books out. Sometimes I
Melissa Amos:think I learned by osmosis, right? So I just have all the books, even if
Melissa Amos:I'm not using them, and then the notes and all of the things, and there's
Melissa Amos:a couple of manuals that go with it and all of that. So they've been
Melissa Amos:sitting there, and then I've got this harrow decks and my notebook
Melissa Amos:from the business mastermind. I'm in. And this week
Melissa Amos:I've been doing my challenge, and it's interesting
Melissa Amos:because I can be in, for example, teaching Reiki and have all my
Melissa Amos:Reiki things around me, and it doesn't bother me, but as soon as now,
Melissa Amos:I've moved into a new space, a new
Melissa Amos:teaching, a new experience. The
Melissa Amos:Reiki books, which are taking up the exact same space
Melissa Amos:they were the week before, they are
Melissa Amos:like, oh, you need to go away. Like, you need to go. You need to
Melissa Amos:go in your home.
Melissa Amos:So, yeah, so then again, I had this urge, although I'm looking at
Melissa Amos:my 12345 tarot decks
Melissa Amos:that are sitting on my chest right now. But then,
Melissa Amos:yeah, I got this urge to, okay, I just need to clear that
Melissa Amos:out, and it suddenly happens. And I think for me, if I force
Melissa Amos:myself to do it, it doesn't have the same
Melissa Amos:impact. I know what you mean. Yeah. It is an energetic thing,
Beth Hewitt:though, isn't it? I think, like, just having something physically in your
Beth Hewitt:space is we're connecting with it on some level. We're
Beth Hewitt:seeing it, we're sensing it, we're feeling it, we're in that energy.
Beth Hewitt:And so when we're wanting to bring or start something
Beth Hewitt:new, to clear that space is a good thing to
Beth Hewitt:do. We used to have a lot of places to do, have the clean desk
Beth Hewitt:policy, which I used to hate because I, like, I'm one of those people. I'm
Beth Hewitt:not messy, but I know where everything is. My other half is,
Beth Hewitt:like, very much. He likes everything in a certain way. He's very OCD about stuff,
Beth Hewitt:like, even how the cups are in the cupboard, whereas I'm like, one cup could
Beth Hewitt:be upright, one cup could be down, one cup could be to the side.
Beth Hewitt:So when I put. If I put the shopping away, ten minutes later,
Beth Hewitt:he'll be rearranging the soup in the right order, which is fine, but, like,
Beth Hewitt:we just live with each other's quirks kind of thing. But I know where
Beth Hewitt:things are. If somebody says, where's the hairbrush? It doesn't have a designated
Beth Hewitt:place, but I will know where the hairbrush is. It's interesting, isn't it,
Melissa Amos:how we create our lives and how what's
Melissa Amos:important to us. And then understanding this energetic space. I had that
Melissa Amos:same desk policy. Yeah. Was working in the
Melissa Amos:showroom. And I remember saying to my boss, who
Melissa Amos:very much took umbrage with the state of my desk, I even had one
Melissa Amos:of those pads that you could just write notes on. Right?
Beth Hewitt:Like the big ones. Yeah, the corporate ones with a. Branded on.
Melissa Amos:And I had. So I had one of them, and they just look. They do
Melissa Amos:not look pretty, do they? And then I didn't have to fumble around for
Melissa Amos:notepads. And I said to him once, I said, the day that my desk is
Melissa Amos:clear is the day that I have got no. Nothing on.
Beth Hewitt:Yeah. And he was like, you need to keep your destid.
Melissa Amos:And I think that we all work in different ways. Like, for
Melissa Amos:me, a lot of the time, I can have things
Melissa Amos:around, and they don't really bother me. But then sometimes,
Melissa Amos:like, when there is this energy change, I'm like, now I need to
Melissa Amos:change. Now I need to get rid of the Dex. Now I need to. I've
Melissa Amos:got this energy clearing spray that I use as a
Melissa Amos:cleaner. Like, literally, I hate the smell of
Melissa Amos:polish. And I think it's for our listeners. I think
Melissa Amos:sometimes it can feel like, oh, okay, energy is important, so you need to work
Melissa Amos:in a really clear space, and that's the way we do it. And feng shui
Melissa Amos:will tell us that this needs to be here and that needs to be there.
Melissa Amos:But the truth is, I think that our environment and
Melissa Amos:our human, there's an interaction going on. And
Melissa Amos:for some of us, that kind of
Melissa Amos:chaos energy
Melissa Amos:helps. And I think you, like me, are
Melissa Amos:one of those people that can take chaos and
Melissa Amos:turn it into coherence. Like, we can take energetic
Melissa Amos:wisps and inspirations and crazy
Melissa Amos:philosophies and all of this, and then put it together into something.
Beth Hewitt:Yeah. So maybe that's why I think that everybody's different. And I
Beth Hewitt:think that is it. I can make order out of chaos, whereas my
Beth Hewitt:other half needs to have order in order to be able to
Beth Hewitt:function. And I think. I just think it's interesting how we are all different,
Beth Hewitt:and it's about complementing, and it's about acknowledging
Beth Hewitt:and listening and working together in all of this to find
Beth Hewitt:out what works, especially in a relationship setting. But
Beth Hewitt:I used to hate, like, the clean desk policy, but I did see the
Beth Hewitt:benefit of it. Like, when I did it, when I did it, I did.
Beth Hewitt:Coming into the office and having a clear space
Beth Hewitt:allows you to not have that overwhelm at the start
Beth Hewitt:of the day. So it supported me, but,
Beth Hewitt:yeah, it wouldn't have been like, I would never. That would never be my preference
Beth Hewitt:of. Right. It's five to five now. We're gonna clean my desk.
Beth Hewitt:It's like, it will still be here. In the morning, and that's what I
Melissa Amos:do. And I'm gonna have to unfind where it. I know where it is. Like
Beth Hewitt:tomorrow, when I need to make that phone call at 09:00 a.m. I know where
Beth Hewitt:my piece of paper is. But now I'm going to have to actually go to
Beth Hewitt:the filing system and work out what conversation I need to
Beth Hewitt:have. So I just think it's an interesting concept that
Beth Hewitt:what space is and how it helps us, but also how
Beth Hewitt:we individually can adapt to different things as well. And I loved what you said
Beth Hewitt:about you learned by osmosis, because I felt that very much when I've been
Beth Hewitt:in spaces and memberships of other people in
Beth Hewitt:other groups, even when I've not been active in that group,
Beth Hewitt:I have, by osmosis, been picking up on what's been taught,
Beth Hewitt:even if I haven't been physically in a lesson or a training.
Beth Hewitt:It's almost like just being in the energy of somebody else. You can pick up
Beth Hewitt:on little bits of conversations that are going on around the periphery, and you can
Beth Hewitt:put it all together and you actually know what the training was. And I
Beth Hewitt:didn't know if I was a lone wolf in that, but I think when you
Beth Hewitt:said it, I thought, oh, Mel gets that. I get it. But then I
Melissa Amos:think this comes with being very aware of the subtle energy. It's
Melissa Amos:also very interesting. I'm running my five day practice as we're recording
Melissa Amos:this, and today is day two, and it's all about clearing the way
Melissa Amos:in energy management. And for me, that's something really
Melissa Amos:important. And as I think we become more
Melissa Amos:sensitive, we become more able to pick
Melissa Amos:up or at least decipher the different energies that are
Melissa Amos:coming. So for some of us, that means that when we come
Melissa Amos:home, that the space needs to be clear and clean
Melissa Amos:and white, and have one crystal on the desk
Melissa Amos:and like one thing in there, and then that's it, because that's
Melissa Amos:when we need to come and de stress,
Melissa Amos:or we just need to come and regulate. And for some of us, that's what
Melissa Amos:we need. I find that when my energy levels
Melissa Amos:are good, when I'm feeling on top of things,
Melissa Amos:I often don't notice the thing on the floor.
Melissa Amos:My husband says I have a superpower that I can walk in
Melissa Amos:and I see all the tidy bits around the messy
Melissa Amos:bit. And that's literally what I do. And he comes in, he's the opposite, and
Melissa Amos:he can tidy up in 3 seconds flat. Whereas for me it takes ages,
Melissa Amos:because when I put things away, they need to go in the right
Melissa Amos:place. But whatever it is that is around us
Melissa Amos:is influencing that. And I think as long as we can be aware of that,
Melissa Amos:yeah, then if you know, what I'm doing at the
Melissa Amos:moment, actually is holding space for a lot of people, and they all have
Melissa Amos:their own things going on. And so actually the
Melissa Amos:12345 tarot decks that are sitting on my desk
Melissa Amos:out of their place, of where they're filed, maybe on
Melissa Amos:some subconscious level, is helping me, because I've got
Melissa Amos:350 different people with all their own
Melissa Amos:experiences and things going on that I'm managing and holding
Melissa Amos:space for. Maybe in some level these cards
Melissa Amos:are giving me this coherence from the
Melissa Amos:chaos, maybe. Yeah. Now it's interesting we're having this
Melissa Amos:conversation because I had this clearing
Melissa Amos:out thing this morning, and when I came in here to
Melissa Amos:record this, I was looking at all of my things, thinking, when
Melissa Amos:we finished this call, I'm going to clear it all up, I'm just going to
Melissa Amos:tidy it up. So we're all ready. But we're talking about energy clearing today, so.
Melissa Amos:Of course we are. So my job when I'm talking to
Melissa Amos:the group today, is to be in that coherent,
Melissa Amos:clean, straight, open energy,
Melissa Amos:because that's what I'm talking about and modeling for them.
Melissa Amos:So this isn't just me trying to manipulate that, this is me
Melissa Amos:responding to something that until now I've just said it.
Melissa Amos:I didn't realize that there was actually some logic involved in there.
Melissa Amos:I thought it's like, oh, just give it a little clear out. Just get nice
Melissa Amos:and clean. Get my energy cleaning spray and wipe the desk so it's all nice
Melissa Amos:and clean and fresh. So I suppose what I want to
Melissa Amos:say to anyone listening is just be aware
Melissa Amos:of it. If when you come into a space, you feel really
Melissa Amos:overwhelmed and you feel cluttered and you feel behemed
Melissa Amos:in, then look at your space and be like, okay, am I.
Melissa Amos:Am I hemmed into my desk? Have I got things all around? Have I got
Melissa Amos:old tissues and, I don't know, tea bags and
Melissa Amos:whatever it is that we. That human pens everywhere and
Melissa Amos:things that aren't. I'm just looking. I've got a. The end of an
Melissa Amos:incense stick just sitting in my abalone shell
Melissa Amos:here, and that's old. I've used that to clean
Melissa Amos:energy and I've kept the sticks there. Yeah. Have
Melissa Amos:some subtle influence on me. At the
Melissa Amos:same time, if you feel like you need, I
Melissa Amos:don't know, maybe some inspiration, you're teaching a certain subject. What if you did
Melissa Amos:have all of your Reiki books, even if you're not going to be
Melissa Amos:referring to them or using them or even opening them, what if they
Melissa Amos:were there? And then something about the energetic of that book that has
Melissa Amos:literally, having written a book, you know this, right? We pour our
Melissa Amos:souls into it. That book holds that energy and
Melissa Amos:that maybe just on some level, we tune into
Melissa Amos:that and then we're inspired to
Melissa Amos:do something. Maybe it's because we feel prepared. Because if someone asked me a question,
Melissa Amos:I don't know, I've got the book there. I don't know. I think it's a
Beth Hewitt:feeling, isn't it? We know when we are ready
Beth Hewitt:to clear the decks and move stuff away because it feels good to do
Beth Hewitt:that. And other times we want the clutter around us. And it was interesting.
Beth Hewitt:I was doing some meditations yesterday, and what came up,
Beth Hewitt:just completely expecting it to come up, was
Beth Hewitt:just this image of fountain pens and writing
Beth Hewitt:utensils that I've had through pretty much
Beth Hewitt:throughout my childhood, which sounds like a bit of a weird thing, but it was
Beth Hewitt:like these images I was getting these images of when I first received my first
Beth Hewitt:fountain Penn at primary school, and how, like, the joy and the energy
Beth Hewitt:connected to having that and this being an implement. But then as I
Beth Hewitt:started to continue to connect with that in the meditation, I then started to
Beth Hewitt:see these images of the pens that I received, like
Beth Hewitt:a secondary school. And the energy of those pens
Beth Hewitt:was very different. And it almost felt like this
Beth Hewitt:writing utensil was actually almost like a wand or a protection
Beth Hewitt:or like a cloak for me, supporting me through
Beth Hewitt:difficult times. Like, it's almost like this pen, this implement, was with me
Beth Hewitt:in the classroom when I was maybe feeling anxious or overwhelmed or nervous as a
Beth Hewitt:teenager. And I'd not obviously picked up on that subtlety at the
Beth Hewitt:time, but these implements were just being shown to
Beth Hewitt:me over and over again. And I started to remember pens
Beth Hewitt:and fountain pens and ballpoint pens that I had
Beth Hewitt:used over the years that had always been there for me. And it makes
Beth Hewitt:sense to hold something in your hand, and
Beth Hewitt:you're using that for whatever you're using it for, but it's actually picking up on
Beth Hewitt:the subtleties and the anxieties and the other one that I'd felt in that moment,
Beth Hewitt:and I just had overwhelming gratitude and appreciation
Beth Hewitt:for these pens. So you just reminded me when you mentioned
Beth Hewitt:pens that came up. I love that. Yeah,
Melissa Amos:there's a whole lot to this. There's a whole lot to psychometry, which
Melissa Amos:is the art of picking up energies from
Melissa Amos:objects. And we see this in mediumship quite
Melissa Amos:often, that we say, oh, have you got anything of your loved one? And then
Melissa Amos:they hold it in their hands, and then there's this connection,
Melissa Amos:because especially if you look at something, we hold something
Melissa Amos:like a pen that you've held in primary school, as well as
Melissa Amos:the one pen. Now, you get pen license when you write the way they want
Melissa Amos:you to. And you have this one thing, and like you say, it
Melissa Amos:becomes that your creative outlet, or it becomes
Melissa Amos:your. We all have different experiences at school, or like a wedding
Melissa Amos:ring, which you're wearing all day, every day, and how it can
Melissa Amos:hold and anchor in the energies of what it is that's going on
Melissa Amos:around us. But that is true for everything. And I
Melissa Amos:think that this conversation is important because as we become
Melissa Amos:more aware of this empty.
Melissa Amos:I've just drunk this coffee, right? But this empty coffee glass has
Melissa Amos:an energetic imprint in it. And whilst it
Melissa Amos:has the coffee, and it has everything that
Melissa Amos:I associate with that while I'm drinking it, if I just left it here
Melissa Amos:and left it for four days, it's starting to hold a very different energy.
Melissa Amos:And suddenly it's maybe telling me I don't feel important enough to
Melissa Amos:do this. It starts to send a vibe out into
Melissa Amos:the world, and we are picking that up each and
Melissa Amos:every time. And for me, it's about really
Melissa Amos:becoming aware of. There is always an interaction
Melissa Amos:with me, and physical objects with me, and energetic objects with
Melissa Amos:me and the tree, which is why when you go in the
Melissa Amos:forest or by the sea, you feel better, because you are in with
Melissa Amos:these negative ions, and they're cleaning out all of
Melissa Amos:this charge. We live in a world that has Wi Fi and
Melissa Amos:wiring and electric cables overhead and under our feet, and all of
Melissa Amos:these things. What are we tuning into?
Melissa Amos:And one of the most important things that I
Melissa Amos:understand about myself and that I
Melissa Amos:really needed to get good at as
Melissa Amos:a human and as a spiritual mentor, is energy
Melissa Amos:management. And if your environment can
Melissa Amos:support you in that, then you've just taken a lot of the heavy lifting
Melissa Amos:out of it. Let your environment do that. Why do I have
Melissa Amos:this huge amethyst that sits behind
Melissa Amos:me? Because it holds an energy. It stops
Melissa Amos:energy. I do all my work from here, accumulating corner,
Melissa Amos:and I've not just plonked it there, I've given it a
Melissa Amos:job. We've had a chat. I clean up this really cute little
Melissa Amos:unicorn brush thing. I'm going to show you, bear. I
Melissa Amos:think it's a makeup brush, right? It's like a fan. That's pretty
Melissa Amos:cute, isn't it? And it came for free when I'd ordered some brushes. And
Melissa Amos:I'm like, it has a job. It's feeding back energy. It's helping me
Melissa Amos:transmute. It's purple. It's this energy of high
Melissa Amos:enlightenment and transmutation. And so as I'm pulling energy
Melissa Amos:in, rather than it all gets stuck in that corner, it can feed something
Melissa Amos:back to me. Above me here, I've got this six pointed
Melissa Amos:star shelf. And on that shelf, there's a bunch
Melissa Amos:of crystals on it. Now, I haven't just put the crystals on there because they
Melissa Amos:fit, because one of the bottom shelf is literally a v
Melissa Amos:shape. So what can you do? So I've got a celestite, but I've got so
Melissa Amos:many crystals that it's not just, oh, that fits there. And that looks pretty.
Beth Hewitt:It's okay. How can that support me? So that celestite helps me
Melissa Amos:with my celestial collections, and I've got the
Melissa Amos:labradorite sitting there. And the labradorite feels, for me
Melissa Amos:very magical and deep and insightful and mystical.
Melissa Amos:And sometimes I need that energy. And then I've got the
Melissa Amos:Buddha sitting there, who I feel really protects me when
Melissa Amos:I'm out in open space. It helps me to
Melissa Amos:not you think about what the Buddha entails, this enlightenment,
Melissa Amos:yes, but this. Anything can be thrown at me, and I'm
Melissa Amos:protected. And so my environment is very conducive to
Melissa Amos:the work that I do here in my home
Melissa Amos:is different, because in my home, it's not about me doing
Melissa Amos:all of that. Yeah, got quite a few rose quartzes
Melissa Amos:going on there. And I've got pictures of Mickey Mouse, a Donald
Melissa Amos:Duck and a goofy, like, amazing artwork in there that we picked up
Melissa Amos:from Disney World, like years ago, because it has this more kind
Melissa Amos:of fun and family quality.
Melissa Amos:So how is your environment influencing you?
Melissa Amos:How are you picking up and you feel if it doesn't work, you walk into
Melissa Amos:a room and you're like, oh, not this. And if it's there,
Melissa Amos:not this. What's going on with the colour? What's going on with the things in
Melissa Amos:it? What about the position of your desk and go and get a
Melissa Amos:feng shui expert.
Melissa Amos:Maybe we'll go and have a look at the. What's it called, the bagua
Melissa Amos:map, where it shows you the different areas of your house, I
Melissa Amos:think. I'm pretty sure it's called a bagua map. And it shows you the different
Melissa Amos:energy centers of your home. And you'll be very
Melissa Amos:surprised. Like, for example, right corner,
Melissa Amos:as you're looking in from the front door, is the love corner,
Melissa Amos:right? And I didn't know this. And in that corner
Melissa Amos:I've got a sign that literally says, all you need is
Melissa Amos:love. Before I knew, right? All you need is love. I've got one
Melissa Amos:that's on the wall. I've got a wooden
Melissa Amos:sculptory thing that says love on it. I had these
Melissa Amos:candles, these what they called love hearts
Melissa Amos:sweets. Love heart candles in there with all of this stuff, I didn't even
Melissa Amos:know. And I'm like, isn't that interesting? My front left,
Melissa Amos:which is the study and wisdom corner, and that was where my
Melissa Amos:bookcase sat. And I'm like, now, how interesting
Melissa Amos:is that? We were picking up on the
Melissa Amos:subtleties and now I know, now I can enhance.
Melissa Amos:So in my abundant corner, I've got a citrine grid with
Melissa Amos:things. Right. Trust yourself, I think, yeah. It's not
Beth Hewitt:just you picking up on energies when you walk into a room
Beth Hewitt:or whether you want to clear the decks. It's also, what do you want to
Beth Hewitt:put into the space as well? What do you want to add that is going
Beth Hewitt:to create that energy that really fuels you and
Beth Hewitt:brings you happiness and joy? We've just redecorated
Beth Hewitt:the living room and it feels like a very different space, different
Beth Hewitt:colors, different pictures, different fabrics, different energies. And one of the
Beth Hewitt:debates that we had was around the curtains. Now, the curtains, there was nothing
Beth Hewitt:wrong with the curtains, but we'd had them maybe twelve year. We had this whole
Beth Hewitt:debate around, do we keep them or do we get rid of them? And my
Beth Hewitt:other half wanted to keep them. We thought they were okay. And I was like,
Beth Hewitt:but they've got twelve years of all kinds of
Beth Hewitt:energetics, birthday parties, arguments,
Beth Hewitt:happiness, excitement. I said, I think we need to. It's time
Beth Hewitt:to let these go and let some new curtains. And curtains are quite. They hold
Beth Hewitt:a lot of space. They do, yeah. And they also keep light
Beth Hewitt:in, or dark lighting or dark, however you want your room to
Beth Hewitt:be. So they've got a, they've got a big job to do and I
Beth Hewitt:think they hold a lot of energy. So that,
Beth Hewitt:that was one of the decisions that we had to make. I'm so pleased that
Beth Hewitt:we got some new curtains. And I think he's now also happy that
Beth Hewitt:we got some new curtains. But, yeah. So it's not just about
Beth Hewitt:what we already contain within our containers and our space and our rooms and
Beth Hewitt:our environments. It's also about what we choose to
Beth Hewitt:place in the environment as well,
Beth Hewitt:to make it feel even more special and being aware of that. But I do
Beth Hewitt:feel like everybody genuinely has that
Beth Hewitt:knowing. Like we know instinctively when we walk in a room whether this
Beth Hewitt:is good or this is bad or something's off or not. And so I
Beth Hewitt:think just knowing where you want to put your water on the
Beth Hewitt:desk or whatever, or the pen that you use today, everything, we've talked about
Beth Hewitt:it before, where you're like, oh, today I want to wear this cozy
Beth Hewitt:cardigan because this makes me feel these feelings. So I want to drink from this
Beth Hewitt:cup because it brings me joy. My
Melissa Amos:water sits on my altar. It was such
Melissa Amos:a small shift. I used to sit here next to my laptop.
Melissa Amos:And then what was it doing? I was absorbing all the luck. Exactly. I'm looking
Beth Hewitt:at my water now. It's my water. I have a
Melissa Amos:crystal bottle, so it's in luck and it's a
Melissa Amos:glass bottle. And my altar sits behind me and it's
Melissa Amos:out of shock because it's impersonal, most of the things on
Melissa Amos:my altar. And one day it was when I was doing
Melissa Amos:some work with a Shaolin master that I've been
Melissa Amos:working with for a while, we were talking about the
Melissa Amos:effects of water, and he said something really interesting to me. He's like,
Melissa Amos:when we're working with energies and especially with these
Melissa Amos:really high frequency or the bodhisattvas and
Melissa Amos:these enlightened beings, and we call them in, they're there straight
Melissa Amos:away. But we often have these worthiness issues around
Melissa Amos:whether or not we can be blessed by their light. And so we put
Melissa Amos:up conscious or subconscious blocks to receiving
Melissa Amos:their full power. Yeah.
Melissa Amos:And he said to me,
Melissa Amos:water and food doesn't have the
Melissa Amos:blocks. The water and the food will just receive whatever energetic
Melissa Amos:it's in. And he says to try it. He said, put a
Melissa Amos:bit. So I had, for quite a while, I had a Buddha altar,
Melissa Amos:and I had his little offering cups in
Melissa Amos:there, and I'd offer a one for nourishment and one for cleansing, and then
Melissa Amos:I would give it to the Buddha, and then I would drink it. And I
Melissa Amos:was like, oh, this water, like, it does feel different.
Melissa Amos:And he said to me, also, put some nuts or some food. Actually,
Melissa Amos:doesn't matter what food. You can put a chocolate bar if you want, there, and
Melissa Amos:just notice if there's any difference when you're ingesting it.
Melissa Amos:And I noticed a difference. I could feel that the nuts,
Melissa Amos:I don't know, just felt more
Melissa Amos:energetically charged.
Melissa Amos:And so now I keep my whole wards all the time.
Melissa Amos:It sits in there. And when I finished, it, got another bottle, which
Melissa Amos:then I fill it up with, and then I leave it there
Melissa Amos:for 12 hours, 24 hours, 36 hours
Melissa Amos:overnight, and it's absorbing all of my intention that I've
Melissa Amos:put in there, and then I'm drinking it, and what a life
Melissa Amos:hack. I love that. Yeah. Top
Melissa Amos:tip. Put your water in it. But then you think, what
Melissa Amos:if we used to do. We used to do these meal box
Melissa Amos:kits. Yeah, the thing. And they got the instructions and all this,
Melissa Amos:and at the time when we did them, I had the three
Melissa Amos:children, and they were little. They were, like, under five, and they were all by
Melissa Amos:my feet. And then I had the great job of following a recipe, which,
Melissa Amos:with a brain like mine, following a recipe is not. But I wanted
Melissa Amos:to do it because my Virgo rising, like, you need to do it. You need
Melissa Amos:to do it in the recipe and my pisces. No, you don't. You do what
Melissa Amos:you want, Melissa. Anyway, and then the kids, and I'd be cooking this
Melissa Amos:meal, and I'd be getting really agitated, like,
Melissa Amos:all the time. I'd be, like, anxious that I'm gonna do it wrong or that,
Melissa Amos:I don't know, there's too much. And I'm trying to follow and I'm trying to
Melissa Amos:listen. I'd always also have some podcasts going on at the same time.
Melissa Amos:Don't ask. And one day, I was like, I can't do this anymore
Melissa Amos:because I am literally putting into my food this anxious
Melissa Amos:energy. Yeah. And it made me wonder. I will not
Melissa Amos:mention which food box company this was, but it did make me wonder
Melissa Amos:how the workers felt when they were packing up, maybe
Melissa Amos:they felt anxious, or maybe the delivery driver felt. Had a
Melissa Amos:certain thing about them. Maybe the way the boxes were
Melissa Amos:manufactured or there's something in there that I was then picking up on that
Melissa Amos:was adding to that anxiety. So what if,
Melissa Amos:in our kitchen, we put something really simple? For example, I've got
Melissa Amos:a rose quartz that sits on top of my, like, where my water
Melissa Amos:is, and I've got another rose quartz which sits where my
Melissa Amos:tea and fruit and
Melissa Amos:eggs. And it just sits there. And then there's, like, a nice
Melissa Amos:picture and then a thing on there, because it starts to go into the
Melissa Amos:love corner of the room. What if we just did something
Melissa Amos:like that? And then every time we cooked or made
Melissa Amos:a drink, we just looked at that rose quartz and was like,
Melissa Amos:it's all filled with love. I love that. I think setting an
Beth Hewitt:intention and also having things in the space that is going to
Beth Hewitt:energize whatever it is that we're doing, whether it's cooking or
Beth Hewitt:watching tv or laughing, whatever's going on in the house is a
Beth Hewitt:really powerful thing to do, because I think we should always have intention. We should
Beth Hewitt:always be trying to focus or get back to the thing
Beth Hewitt:that brings us. And we have to think that everything that's manufactured, all
Beth Hewitt:of those energies, you get a brand new mobile phone. All of the component parts
Beth Hewitt:of that mobile phone and who put it together, and the factories and
Beth Hewitt:the packaging and everything, all of that holds energies. And none of that
Beth Hewitt:is. Is us, is it? So we should be
Beth Hewitt:clearing everything, everything that comes into our house and blessing it and setting
Beth Hewitt:a new intention for it. Like, when we get a new card deck,
Beth Hewitt:we touch them, feel them, connect with them, set
Beth Hewitt:a new intention for the deck, and maybe we should be doing it with more
Beth Hewitt:things. I think this is this conscious
Melissa Amos:awareness of it. And if we can think, oh, okay, I can feel better when
Melissa Amos:I'm walking in the woods, or I can have a crystal, and that crystal
Melissa Amos:can help me, or I can have a book here, and I can learn by
Melissa Amos:osmosis. If that. If any part of you is, oh, yeah, I can do
Melissa Amos:that. Then it only makes sense. That is just true for
Melissa Amos:everything. It's not becoming. It's not like coming into fear of, oh, my
Melissa Amos:God, this thing has arrived in my house. Now I need to leave
Melissa Amos:it. Remember, COVID? Now I need to leave it outside my door for
Melissa Amos:72 hours before it comes in. I know some of the
Melissa Amos:rituals, but it's not that.
Melissa Amos:But it's having that awareness that sometimes things will come in.
Beth Hewitt:And. It'S within our
Melissa Amos:responsibility, I think, to be able to go,
Melissa Amos:okay, what do I need to do with this? How do I need to bond
Melissa Amos:with this? How is this making me feel? Is this
Melissa Amos:right? And if it isn't, maybe we need to move it, change
Melissa Amos:it, clean it, connect with it, meditate with it, wash
Melissa Amos:it. It's having the awareness of it, isn't it? It's knowing what
Beth Hewitt:we're feeling around that. But my, my auntie who
Beth Hewitt:passed away around Christmas time, the family has been clearing that
Beth Hewitt:house out and that has undeniably shifted some
Beth Hewitt:kind of energies in there. And people are picking up on things that feel a
Beth Hewitt:bit icky and that they're not them and they're now able to bless the house
Beth Hewitt:and do all these kinds of things and clear all that space out.
Beth Hewitt:But we're picking up on subtleties of
Beth Hewitt:all kinds of things all of the time. And I think it's just having that
Beth Hewitt:awareness when we feel like something's not
Beth Hewitt:us or not right or it's not filling us with
Beth Hewitt:happy thoughts. And it feels a little bit more icky that we can have that
Beth Hewitt:conscious ability reset that and to clear
Beth Hewitt:the clear that. And sometimes that starts with the clearing the decks and the desk
Beth Hewitt:and the, and sometimes we want to do something more ritualistic and
Beth Hewitt:use all the tools available to us. So I wonder if
Melissa Amos:it's inspired to spring clean now and who
Melissa Amos:is around their space going like I
Melissa Amos:am. Yeah. Oh, look at that. That's out of place over
Melissa Amos:there. And just be
Melissa Amos:conscious. Maybe one week I'll talk about,
Melissa Amos:I have a lot of crystal grids and things that I put on around the
Melissa Amos:house. And they're an interesting conversation, I think, to have
Melissa Amos:how they work. I'm looking at one grid that's sitting over there that I put
Melissa Amos:up when I released my book. And it's still there. It's still there intact.
Melissa Amos:And I look at it sometimes and I think, no, I still don't, I still
Melissa Amos:don't want to move that still there. So that's been,
Melissa Amos:you know, it's coming up to you. Yeah, it's been there.
Melissa Amos:So maybe we can have a conversation, if the listeners would like,
Melissa Amos:about crystal grids and how they affect us and
Melissa Amos:why I have, I'm surrounded
Melissa Amos:by so many and what constitutes one. It's always fun.
Beth Hewitt:That sounds like a fun conversation.
Melissa Amos:Okay. It's been another enlightening,
Beth Hewitt:clarity fueled conversation.
Beth Hewitt:And I shall now go clean the house. Yeah, there we go. I'm going to
Melissa Amos:go clean my energy in my yoga practice, but, yeah. I've got
Melissa Amos:ten minutes where all of these decks and all of these books are going
Melissa Amos:to be filed away, waiting. Storing
Melissa Amos:the energy, waiting for time. So if we have
Melissa Amos:inspired you to clean, clear, change, or
Melissa Amos:move, do let us know, because we'd love to know. And I'm sure your
Melissa Amos:families will be delighted with you. I know my husband. When I do anything,
Melissa Amos:he's well done. What's wrong with you? And I'm like, I don't know. I was
Melissa Amos:inspired to clean. Please let us know and we'll take the credit.
