🧹6 Tips to Spring Cleaning Your Life! Rekindle your intention and relaunch into aligned actions
Welcome back to "The Microdose Diet" newsletter, your trusted source for achieving success, passion, and happiness in life and career through alternative medicines like microdosing psychedelics. 🍄
Ah, Spring! The season of rebirth, renewal, and for some strange reason, the irresistible urge to clean everything in sight. But why stop with your cluttered garage or those dust bunnies plotting their next move under your bed?
I wrote in the past about the benefits of cleansing as a way to get unstuck. Clearing is step 0 of any transformation…you have to make space for better things to come and get rid of anything and everything that is not congruent with your vision of success.
Spring is the best time to rekindle your intention and relaunch yourself into aligned actions. To do so, you first have to remove the weeds, and then plant the seeds of your success.
It's now high time you embraced a full-scale Spring Cleaning Extravaganza – mind, body, spirit, emotions, and yes, even that junk drawer that's become a black hole for batteries and unidentified keys. Grab your brooms, and dustpans – you're diving into the ultimate to-do list for a comprehensive spring clean that'll leave you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on the world (or at least your closet).
😶🌫️Mind Detox: Clear Out Those Mental Cobwebs
Let's kick things off with a mental Marie Kondo session. If your thoughts don't spark joy, it's time to thank them for their service and show them the door. Are your limiting beliefs telling you that “You suck”, “You can’t do this”, “You should be better” and so on? Well let’s fire them once and for all! A quick and easy fix is to start by unfollowing the negativity on social media – yes, including that friend who posts nothing but their perfect life (we all know they're lying about enjoying kale). Replace doomscrolling with something uplifting, like cat videos or whatever makes your neurons do the happy dance.
My favorite thing to do before an important chat, such as an interview with The WSJ 😉 is to watch videos from FailArmy. I know I am a terrible person. But for me there is something magical in seeing people sliding on frozen sidewalks, falling from their canoes and getting kicked from devices obviously made for a small child.
Firing your negative beliefs seems easier said than done? Pre-order The Microdose Diet for a holistic protocol to do just that in 90 days!
🛀Body Buff and Shine: Get Moving!
Your body is your temple, so let's do some spring cleaning on the old homestead. Start by dusting off those workout clothes and actually putting them to use. Dance like nobody's watching, jog like you're mildly enthusiastic about it, or just stretch to reach the remote better. Whatever gets you moving! Consider a detox by swapping out one of your daily coffees for, dare I say, water? Your liver and kidneys will throw you a thank-you parade. And don’t forget about those colonics!! Your entire guts will make a happy dance.
For the past few weeks I have been on a no-alcohol, no dairy, no sugar, no wheat detox. Is it life-changing? Absolutely! Now, I only have to choose between 3 ingredients when preparing my meal. Did I lose weight? Barely. Do I feel great about myself? Totally! This diet is probably the most empowering thing I have ever done for myself. You might elect to take Epson salts bath every night. That works too.
🧘Spirit Sprucing: Zen Your Way to Serenity
Your spirit is like that one drawer you shove everything into – it's time to tidy up. Try meditation, but if sitting quietly isn't your thing, meditative activities like knitting, gardening, or even coloring can do wonders. The goal is to find peace, even if it's just five minutes hiding in the bathroom from your kids, pets, or significant other.
Tapping meditation is a magical tool for accessing more serenity and calming the f%#k down. Try this one, it will only take you 5 minutes and it will rock your world. Courtesy of The Microdose Diet Masterclass. ❤️

😭Emotional Deep Clean: It's Okay to Cry Over Spilled Milk
Emotions can get messy. It's time to declutter those feelings you've been storing in the back of your emotional closet. Write a letter to someone who hurt you, then ceremoniously burn it (safely, please – we're cleansing, not summoning the fire department). Laugh, cry, scream into a pillow – let it all out. You'll feel lighter, and your pillow might appreciate the attention.
If your emotions need a bit more of TLC, journaling is a fabulous way to process old stuck 💩.
🧽Physical Cleanse: The Actual Cleaning Part
Yes, we have to talk about actual cleaning (sigh). Make it fun by blasting your favorite tunes or turning it into a workout (squat while you sweep, I read that is what Carrie Underwood did. You know you want these thighs!). Organize that junk drawer, donate clothes you haven't worn in a year, and finally tackle that scary shelf in the fridge. Remember, cleanliness is next to godliness, and who doesn't want to be a deity of detergent?
And remember, anything and everything that is not congruent with your vision needs to go. Yes that includes the old knick-knacks from your mother, the out-of-fashion-too-small clothes, and the books you will never read.
