Tie the Loose Ends and Open the Way

I usually share something like this at the end of the year, but I want to invite you into a monthly practice. Something grounding and magical. Something to help you tie the loose ends and open the way. Because energy builds. It lingers. And it leaks if we don’t give it a proper closing.

So let’s do that together now.

Here’s what I do, and what I invite you to try before the new month begins (anytime is a good time, really):

1. Close the Fields

This is something I learned from my teacher José Stevens at The Power Path, and I’ve used it in my own practice and my mantra processes every week. It works.

What are the energy fields that are still open from June that you don’t want to bring with you into July?

Maybe it’s a relationship dynamic that’s been draining you. Maybe it’s a thought pattern. A fear. A feeling. A spiral you’re sick of spiraling. Whatever it is, name it.

Then close the field. You can do this with visualization—imagine a door shutting completely. Sealed. No light peeking through. No crack in the frame. You are done with it. You don’t need to figure it out. You just need to say it’s done.

You might want to write the list down. You can burn it after. You can bury it, too. You can whisper it into running water and walk away. Just mark it as closed with a little ritual.

2. Close the Loops

 Think of your mind like a computer. Too many tabs open = lag. Glitches. Exhaustion. This happens energetically too. Your “to-do list” is not just a list. It’s a psychic leak.

 So this part might take a minute, but it’s worth it. Write down every single lingering task. All of it. Personal. Work. That thing you were going to fix around the house. That blog you started writing. The email you never sent.

 Then go through the list and make a decision for each one:

  • Let it go. Cross it off. You’re not doing it. It’s not the time. You are free.

  • Or set a date for when it will be done—and write down three specific steps you’ll take to move it forward.

 What’s important here is that you’re not lying to yourself. Every time you say you’ll do something and then don’t, you chip away at your own self-trust. And self-trust is everything. It’s how confidence builds. It’s how aligned support shows up. 

So be impeccable with your word right now. No judgment or shame, but if you say you're going to do the thing, make the space instead of excuses.

Once you’ve made your choices, take a breath. Burn the paper if you want. Delete the notes. Clean slate.

3. Choose One Empowering Completion

This part is simple and potent. Pick one thing that you can complete by the end of the day—or within the next 24 hours. Just one. 

It can be small: replying to a text you’ve avoided, donating clothes you’ve been meaning to clear, deleting photos that make you feel heavy. It can be symbolic: taking a salt bath, wiping down your altar, shaking out your sheets and starting fresh.

What matters is that it feels like a “yes” in your body. Something you can complete fully and feel proud of. Do it. Then mark it as done.

That’s it! Tomorrow, I’ll share how to open the new fields for July.

But for now, honor the closing. Don't keep carrying things you can put down. Just decide you're done and be done with it. Remember, it’s safe to finish things, even if they don't feel complete. It's always a choice.

Let me know if you try this—or if you create your own version. I’d love to hear.

🌞 May your growth be bold, rooted, and radiant. 🔥

Warmly,

Neelou
