95. Make Room for What’s New!
New Year has releasing magic. Ending an entire year causes people to look back and reflect. How was this year? Wouldn’t miss it for anything? Or, “Thank God, it’s over”? Where do I stand now in life? How happy am I? What do I still want to do? With whom do I want to do it? With whom don’t I? Many decisions are made around New Year’s. A lot of old stuff is cleared out of the house, material as well as emotional. Spring-cleaning is nothing compared to this!
Do you enjoy all the de-cluttering?
Just before New Year’s, things become busy at the dump. With 20 extra workers waste processing companies try to deal with everything that is brought in. People come in long lines to bring their waste. And on E-bay you can find all sorts of things being given away for free. It’s because of the need to de-clutter, inherent in humans. Get rid of the old. Get rid of what’s unnecessary. Make a clean sweep and create space!
Do you have your own space?
One of the basic needs that is supplemented with the MIR-Method in step 7: “Fulfill basic needs”, is space; the need for your own area, your own space. That is especially important when you didn’t have that space during your childhood. If, for example, you had a lot of brothers and sisters growing up. Or if you weren’t allowed to retreat into your own “zone”. “Where are you going?” you heard as soon as you wanted to go up the stairs to your own room. Or you were constantly monitored and checked-up on. “Where were you?” “What were you doing?”
Need some room in your head?
Little worries can cause a clear mind to become fuddled. Your thoughts can be very exhausting and use up all of your energy. It is great to have space in your head so you can find rest. You can get some distance from everything going on around you. Then you think clearly again and make decisions. If you do the MIR-Method for a longer period of time, you will notice that thinking becomes easier. You can make decisions more easily and see more clearly what is important and what isn’t. Main and side issues are more clearly defined.
Why do you want to make a clean sweep?
The MIR-Method helps you to feel deeply within what you need. Do you need your own space, where you can put your things? Do you need space, literally, to be away from people for a while? Do you need more energetic space? Space, so you once again have the resilience to regain control in your life? So you can call the shots and make decisions that are good for you? Or do you need space within yourself so you are once again ready for something new? Is something new coming for which you are now building a “nest”? Maybe the arrival of a new child. Or making a big decision in your life: a change in work?
For what do you need support?
The MIR-Method supports you in many ways. It helps you develop more self-confidence and above all, it is a method that is intended to reset and regain your purity, your original strength. Its intention is to release your deepest desires so you can live in such a way as to be glad at heart! That you radiate joy and inspire other people! You deserve it and my wish is that the next year is your year!
And you, what comes to mind when you think about creating space for yourself? I’d love to hear about it! Please write a message below. Thank you!
Personal questions should always be asked of a MIR-Method coach!
Wishing you much success, love and space in the New Year!

Dear Mireille,
it is about time I send you a note of deepest appreciation and heartfelt thanks… I started the MIR-Method on June 26 this year. Without planning it since then I have stopped drinking coffee, black tea and alcohol completely. I am not missing either and am trusting that my body knows what it needs and what not. Now I am just hoping it will be that easy with sugar as well ;o)
In regards to space I am continuously chipping away at it, which can be tricky with three young children and a husband with an eye for “things that will be useful one day”.
I have created several other good, fun habits and personal challenges since completing the initial six weeks and have encouraged my 13 year old daughter to try the method because she doesn’t sleep well (hasn’t for years). I am hopeful that my positive transformation will help her. I am telling many people here in Australia about the MIR Method, Mireille.
What it did for me I describe as re-calibrating, cleansing and being the catalyst for transformation.
Thank you so very much!

Dear MM
Thank you for all messages. Love them.
As I’m advancing in age, want less things around the home are definitely helping me. Doing very well with de-cluttering. Love you dear❤️
Your comments on space were just what I needed to hear. I have been wondering what basic needs were not being fulfilled. And one of them, for sure, is space. My husband is ill and is on the couch in our living room, which is connected to our kitchen. My room is right off the kitchen and I often feel I can’t get any space. I will rememdy that I think by closing my door more often, spending more time in my room alone. And I know other ideas will pop up as well.
Dear Ann,
Yes, that’s how it works. People really need their personal space. Good of you to respect that and find ways. It is extra tough when you didn’t experience any space in your childhood, for example with a controlling mother.
Keep up creating your own space!
Greetings, Mireille Mettes
Happy New Year and positive thoughts from (still sunny) Greece.
I have just discovered your method and I’m really enthusiastic about it.
As I consider myself quite an exhausted and burnt out organism, (due to long term cold, Raynaud’s syndrome, para sympathetic syndrome, recent severe backaches and allergic shock …etc etc) I hope that I have understood well that I shall start practicing ONLY steps 5 (shortages) and 7 (basic needs)for two weeks and then I should follow the 9 steps method for 4 weeks. Did I get it right ?
What about repeating these two steps (or the whole method) more than twice a day , – I feel great comfort and relief if I do so and I can sense the unblocking procedure by ….. yawning 🙂 – can it be somehow harmful or perhaps cancels the cleansing results or simply there is not just a need…? what about any further free webinars , are there in your schedule…? Thank you in advance for your time and forthcoming and illuminating answers… !!! xxx
Dear Anastasia,
I am so happy you embraced the MIR-Method! Hope you can tell as many people in Greece as possible! But that will come if you notice results in your health. Yes, you understood well to first start gently with only step 5 and 7. After two weeks you are then ready to start all 9 steps. And doing it more than twice a day is just no use, because your body and subconscious cannot work harder than it already does.
Yes, there are webinars coming. I just need to plan some new dates, but it will come!
Good luck and hope to hear how you are doing in a while!
Greetings, Mireille Mettes
