Get Some New Pajamas, or Sleep Naked

Do you wake up in the morning to a messy room in ragged tattered pajamas? What a way to start the day, haphazard and tattered. Just maybe the state of your bedroom and pajamas is having a negative effect on your life.

If the last thing that you see before you go to bed at night is a topsy turvy unoganized room it makes the dreams you dream ramshackle and thus making it harder for your daytime dreams to come true. The first step to achieving your goals in life just may lay in your bedroom habits.

Make Your Bed Before You Lay In It

Making ones bed is something that many of us, including myself, often fail to see the importance of, or disdain because of nagging parents or spouses. At times I have had the attitude of “why bother it will only be messed up again tonight”. However, I started to realize that if I want to travel more then just maybe the way I keep my bed at home will somehow attract more experiences of walking into a hotel room with a freshly made bed. I like to travel and I like the feeling of entering a hotel room that is clean and organized. Leaving bed linens in disarray at home just may be stopping you from having more opportunities to travel. The more sheets you have on a bed will make it harder to make, so stick to one sheet and a heavier quilt or douvet.

Monsters Under The Bed

Dust bunnies are obviously not actual creatures, but they do harbor many scary monsters such as dust mites and other microscopic creatures that cause illness. Our sleep time is a time of rejuvenation and if it is inhibited by various forms of pollution that times has a less positive effect. Additionally the sight of dust bunnies, cobwebs, and dirty carpets as our last thing before we go to bed at night, or the first thing we see in the morning, can effect our mental wellbeing. This may also may effect our financial wellbeing. One of the ways that a dirty dusty bedroom can work against our financial wellbeing is that diminished health that lessens our abilities to make money, or in greater health care costs, even if it is just the sniffles. Beyond this, if all our eyes see is filth and squaller we will attract more of it. No matter what your living situation is, a broom, mop, or dusting cloth, will make it better.

 

Counting Sheep, or Pigs?

I happen to like both sheep and pigs. What I have come not to like, is a bedroom that looks like a pigpen. My bedroom is not overly pristine, or antiseptically clean, and I am not suggesting that yours should be either. What I am suggesting is that if you keep it reasonably clean and neat that it will have a positive effect on your attitude at night, when you go to bed, and in the morning, when you get up. That this attitude will begin to have a positive impact on all other areas of your life.

Does Your Room Look Like A Junkyard?

Maybe your parents have said to you at some point in your life “you don’t appreciate what you have”. I am guilty of this as I am sure most of us are at one point or another in life. We throw our clothes or other belongings on the floor of our bedrooms. While this can be forgiven in the throws of passion, the rest of the time it shows a lack of gratitude and respect for what we have. This lack of gratitude for our belongings could be responsible for lack in other areas of our life. Try placing your clothes neatly in a hamper if they need to be cleaned or hanging them in there proper place if they are clean, and see if treating them with gratitude and respect draws even nicer clothes to you. The same goes for such items as jewelry, books, CDs, or DVDs and so on, that you may keep in your bedroom.

“But They’re Comfortable”

So you are tired of the life you are living and would like more. More money, more travel, a better house, a better relationship? Then why are you still wearing those ragged pajamas that are faded, coming apart at the seams, are dirty, and have holes in them? “Because they’re comfortable” and because you are comfortable with being in the state you are in is most likely why you are not achieving some of the dreams you have in life. A symbolic changing of your pajamas from those tattered ones to some fresh new ones or even the action of being comfortable in your own body, enough to sleep naked just may be one of the best things you can do to start down the path of embracing and receiving your dreams.

    Your first picture is just like my youngest grandsons room. Bless his heart, I don’t see how he can go in there mucch less sleep in it. I guess it’s to each his own. I make my bed every morning when I get out of it. I can’t stand a messy room, it must be nice to relax and go with the flow. take care,Ruby

    What you say makes perfect sense. I have always needed my surroundings to be neat and orderly. If there is confusion on the outside, it causes confusion on the inside.

    Great article.

    I agree with you about travel. It’s so nice to open the door and everything is nice and neat. I should try that at home. I know it definitely helps when the rest of the house is nice and clean.
