You make around 35,000 decisions every day! You own and therefore manage around 300,000 items in your home!
stats based on a fairly simplistic, routine schedule and an average to small size home

No wonder you feel so tired, overwhelmed and heavy!
Do not underestimate how much these decisions items are effecting you.
Each item in your home is a decision - should that stay there, does it need to be cleaned, will I use it someday...
What if you only owned your favourite things?
Imagine how freeing and light that would feel!
Take a deep, slow belly breath. Now exhale it fully. Let go.
How does that feel? How do you feel?
This is you. This is who you are and how you are right now. This is your life.
You can shed the what-ifs and the remember-whens. Those items are clutter distracting you from what is really important -- you in the present moment, how you are living in the current season.
The items in your home should serve you. Your home is not a storage unit for inventory that needs to be managed.
Your home is your sanctuary, a place for rest and inspiration, maybe a gathering space, a welcome home on even your worst of days.
When you lighten up the clutter, you make space for light, and you make space to lighten up on even your hardest days (and we all know we are not spared from those days).
You deserve a home that soothes your soul.
It is easier than you might think.
