186 | Are You Over-Functioning? Here's How to Tell

Hey guys!   In this episode I talk about how to apply mindfulness to decluttering.  Some of the strategies I talk about here are creating space for your mind to relax, by setting a timer.  Then to manifest what you want your life to look like, and how decluttering is the step you can take today to move that needle forward.  I also talk about how to relax the nervous system by taking deep breaths, and finally, how getting rid of the clutter is going to allow space to receive what you really want in life.  Here's the link to join us in the decluttering challenges: https://www.facebook.com/groups/declutteryourchaos Can't wait to connect with you in the group!

Hi guys! In this episode I talk about simplifying your categories when decluttering a very cluttered space, like a garage.  The more simple you make the categories, the less emotional and the less energy your project will take.  We want to make the project so simple that it's like working out: a physical rather than an emotional experience.  Hope this helps!

Hi Guys, Just because we CAN take care of everything doesn't mean we SHOULD take care of everything.  We are capable of doing so much - taking care of the kids, the house, the spouse, the driving, the scheduling, the shopping, the cooking, everything - but when this becomes our life to the degree that we have no time to appreciate the small moments we know it has gotten out of hand.  It's time to step back, delegate, declutter and take care of you.  Give yourself some space.   If you'd like to join the challenge click here to join the fb group:  Facebook Group:   https://www.facebook.com/groups/declutteryourchaos Ask any question you'd like in the group or you can message me on IG.
