Ooh yes, I liked this. I did the exercise and, believe it or not, it took me a while to think of things for the things-that-are-a-drag list! I was quite proud of myself for a minute there, but then I got on a roll.

Dear Shann,
Just love your blog! Great advice. Now if only I can find time to take it
.
Anyway, I have done this exercise before and it is very powerful. Getting rid of theose things that are a drag releases so much negative energy it brings incredible clarity to our lives. This is an especially good exercise for those who are struggling to find their purpose.
Thanks Shann!
Have a Super Saturday,

Dear Hilary and Heidi,
I’m glad you found this exercise useful. So often it seems like we don’t have the time to carve our a few minutes to discover more joy and clarity. Then we create the opening and the art of luscious living begins.
