Business Name & Symbol

When I chose my business name and business logo, it was a very intentional process. I was having a hard time coming up with a business name so my Life Architecture class helped me by 'interviewing' me (for lack of a better word.) We talked about what my work does and how it helps people. Cheryl scribed all of these words on a paper chart for me and I eventually came up with Clear Intentions because when you are clear about your life goals and how you want your life to look, feel, be, etc., it becomes easier to let things go that don't support this vision.
When people clear the clutter and get organized, they feel lighter, more clear and it opens them up for more of what they want. Clutter keeps you stuck in the past. Think about it. Think about something that you are hanging onto that you know you should let go of. How does it make you feel when you see if, feel it, think about it? If it keeps you stuck in the past, if you keeps you stuck in any way that is not serving your highest and best good, let it go. This pertains to physical clutter as well as mental clutter.
Sometimes you don't know what you want or how you want to feel. I can guarantee by moving and shifting the energy of your home or office by removing clutter, it will begin to shift things in you.
My tag line, Clearing Clutter for Lighter Living has dual meaning. When you clear clutter, you remove things that may be weighing you down thus you feel lighter. Also, if you are a spiritual person at all you will understand that this will also raise your vibration rate and make you feel lighter. All good things. Lighter Living can have so many meanings.... I help people who want to downsize, get more intentional about their homes and their lives. It is all related.
My logo came from many hours searching for the perfect symbol to embody what I felt like my services can do for people. I found it on a symbols website and it means 'radiant light' which seemed so perfect. Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't have a graphic designer create something special for me but for now this works. I love the meaning behind it.
If you are ready to remove some clutter from your life, get clear about your intentions, be more productive or get more organized and feel like you need help in the process I hope you will think of me. If you have questions about Life Architecture Sessions or my recent Go System Certification, please ask. I love to talk about this stuff and would love to share.
