shelter list

A couple of days ago I shared this list on my Facebook and Twitter, I suppose it is clearer here for many more readers. Is a simple list of some very productive things a Spiritual worker or Mage can do these days in the Shelter.

• Cook something new.

It is a good time to create new recipes, take advantage of everything you have in the fridge, get creative, and use all those canned and seasonings that you did not know how to use.

• Take a nap.

When we are little we are taught at home, and later in school, that we should sleep at night, and take a short break in the middle of the afternoon to rest the brain and thus help it process the information it has received.

It is also a healthy habit that allows the body to purge toxins and work while the conscious mind is at rest.

Unfortunately, after a certain age, these naps are over, due to the complex work and university schedules of modern society, which keep us awake for 16 hours in a row and then rest for around eight hours. Which is "socially correct", but perhaps not the healthiest habit.

• Clean, paint and tidy up the house.

If you are in quarantine, and any corner of your house is a disaster, what a shame about you! You have time now to show love to your home, so do it. =

At the end of the day, the way your home looks, and the order or disorder in it, is a reflection of how you feel inside. A home that looks nice to simple dresses, but is not clean in-depth, is the reflection of a person who uses vain excuses to evade reality and only cares how his life looks from the outside.

Take this time to "not be glued to the sofa watching TV", think about how unhealthy this is for your body. Even if you live in a small bedroom, use this time to tidy up, clean, and use those old paint buckets for the walls.

• Clean the windows.

A terrible habitual practice of many people I know is to clean the entire house "for cleaning and Feng Shui", but they do not clean the windows, which is not going to take more than 30 minutes a day, it is easy to do, and it is necessary Especially if we are fighting a health threat.

The glass and mirrors of the house are there to reflect the truth, to reflect the light, and to mark a safe space between the external world and the home. Windows are energy portals, don't let them get dirty.

• Move the furniture from the site. 

Si el Feng-Shui es lo tuyo, este es el momento, sino, igualmente aqui no hay excuses validas. Mover los muebles siempre renueva la energia, libera la energia que esta estancada y remueve las energias negativas y larvas astrales, esas mismas que te ocasionan dolores de cabeza, migranas, malestares, estres y especialmente ansiedad.

• Get rid of old things.

Take advantage that you are cleaning, moving things, and reordering, and get rid of everything that no longer serves and does not need. Clothes that you no longer have, broken shoes, books that you will never read again, old furniture, artifacts that are useless.

All that is left, it is time to say goodbye.

• Reorder your closet.

Reinforcing the previous point. Take out absolutely everything that is in your closet, piece by piece, clean that space in-depth, give it the value it deserves, it is not a box where you keep clothes, it is the place where you place each and every one of the pieces that you chose personally to identify you in front of the world.

If something is there, pants, jackets and shirts that you do not need, or that have not been worn for months, shoes that you no longer like, clothes that you bought "because they were in fashion", but they no longer match your style (Thanks to all the gods for minimalism), it's time to say goodbye.

• Call your family and friends.

This is the time to get in touch with all your family members (or as in my case, only with those that you really appreciate and not all those who should greet by protocol once every four years).

It's time to make long calls, catch up, tell stories, relive old memories, make lists of those friends from the College and University with whom you don't talk much anymore, etc.

Si no sabes como romper el hielo, estos momentos de adversidad te dan la oportunidad de decir "es que acabo de ver en las noticias que alla donde estás vives todo esta muy mal".

• Exercise / Workout 90Min

You have time and space, you don't need a big gym to exercise. Assemble your playlist with your favorite electronic music, choose a warm shirt and shorts, good stockings with comfortable shoes, open a little space and set the stopwatch.

For 90 minutes, do as many exercises as you can, everyone you know and remember, there are thousands of homemade exercise routines on YouTube.

Wait the next day and repeat.

• Practice yoga

Yoga, much more than a series of stretching exercises with beautiful clothes, is a philosophy of life, a healthy lifestyle that allows you to connect with yourself, with your inner self, with each cell of your body and with everything that surrounds you.

Make use of this time to discover how beautiful yoga is, you can find hundreds of books on Amazon, and as a training tool it is one of the best. It is a hundred times more useful than going to the gym.

• Meditate / Read / Write.

This is the time (especially if you are alone) to meditate, to connect with your thoughts and emotions, to process decades of trauma and discomfort in your head. Your mind is that infinite space where you are going to spend most of your time. Make sure it is nice, clean and comfortable.

• Make a video call to a friend or colleague who is alone at home.

We are living a stage of humanity, where finally diseases and mental conditions are not a taboo, many people that you know personally suffer from many of these disorders and perhaps you do not know it.

Anxiety and depression are the order of the day, especially since the use of social networks became popular as an "almost obligatory" tool for living in the modern world. Do the world and your conscience a favor by brightening someone's day with a call, perhaps someone you know has been locked up for weeks, or even days, unable to leave, with fear and anxiety about the future, and with no one to call.

• Play Chess, Checkers, Ludo.

In addition to the thousands of online versions of these games, which are great to distract you and play online. If you are at home with other people, this is an incredible way to spend time.

For those who follow me on social media, they know well that I am a complete nerd/geek and I play several different things, including Yugi Oh Cards Online, and Pokemon Go, plus I play 2 hours a week on PS4.

If you have a PS4, I personally recommend you discover and play Journey, Abzu, Rime, The Last Guardian, and my favorites, all versions of Skylanders.

• Make a cake.

This does not even require explanation, who does not love homemade cakes ?.

• Listen to music.

It is a good time to catch up on the music of your favorite artists, whatever your genre and favorite musical style. It is a good time to spend less time following your artists on Instagram and invest that time in really supporting them by playing their music.

Spotify, AppleMusic, Google Play Music, Deezer, are just some of the platforms that you can use to create extensive playlists with your favorite music.

• Study something new.

If you go to Google, you will find hundreds of offers of free online courses on what you are looking for, on YouTube you will find thousands of tutorials on what you want to learn.

So take this time to dedicate yourself to learning something new, in my case, I am studying the Toth Tarot, which has always been one of my favorites, and every Wednesday I choose a random rune and study its meaning as well.

• Organize an online dinner with your friends.

There are more than a hundred Apps to make video calls, many of these are free, so it is a good time to be creative and make an online dinner with our loved ones, I tell you from experience that you are going to have a great time.

• Begin or End that Old book.

I suppose that all of us at some point have bought a book that we have not finished, and many times the excuse is "I have not had time for it", because this is the time to do it.

• Burn Incense and light some candles.

Yes, I am a fan of smoke, not because of the "new fashion" of instagram that many follow of wanting to look spiritual, I grew up in a small place in the Amazon where smoke was something that was considered sacred, full of messages and Interpretations. I am that kind of irresponsible individual who turns off the smoke alarm because if I don't, it would be ringing every now and then.

Therefore, I will always recommend that they burn incense, it is beautiful, it is relaxing, it is aromatic, it is an energy cleanser, and it also changes the chemical composition of the air. Light incense and some candles to light the way for well-meaning spirits towards you.

• Pray to your personal God or Gods.

This is a good time to find harmony in your personal relationship with your gods and angels. So take advantage of this time at home to connect with them, talk to them, study them, understand them, embrace them and follow their light.

If you didn't have the time before to dedicate yourself to the spiritual search and connect with yourself, perhaps this is the moment you've been looking for / waiting for a long time.

• Make a list of your personal/professional projects in the short and long term to burn the next new moon.

The new moon is quite close, and with each new moon, we have a cycle of internal reunion that allows us to observe ourselves from another angle, start new projects and immerse ourselves in new processes.

Use your time at home to plan your next steps and each of your projects with love and detail.

• Make a list of things to be Grateful 😉

Take a sheet of paper and a pencil. Then proceed to write and list all the good, positive, or joyful things for which you are grateful. Remember that gratitude is a magnet for miracles, everything you thank multiplies.

• Meditate with your Tarot Cards and Oracles.

This is the right time to study your Tarot, your personal oracle in-depth, re-read it in a different way and meditate on it.

The Tarot has always been a method of consulting the future and the future, an appropriate and comfortable way to help you make decisions. Today the fashion is to make use of the Tarot as an instrument of meditation, the study of its archetypes and self-analysis, it is a good idea that you make use of both perspectives and see that it is better for you.

• Make an ice green tea with honey and ginger.

Something healthy and healthy you can do at home is to drink hot tea, so you can boil green tea with ginger, lemon peel, and honey. Let it cool for about an hour and drink it with ice.

It is an excellent and healthy recipe for lunchtime or perhaps mid-afternoon.

• Have Fun in your way 🤗

Be blessed

With Love Elhoim Leafar ❤️
