Put the guilt, shame, anger and resentment, worry, regret and disappointment to the curb with physical clutter.
Challenge yourself with a deep spring clean of the specific emotions that often reinforce the grip on our belongings
• Guilt– Rooted in actions from the past and perpetuated in a lack of action in the present; heavy and depressive; coerces us to hang on and holds us back
• Shame– feel flawed, not good enough, or something’s wrong with us; low self worth, depression, and anxiety
• Regret and disappointment– guilt, shame, + sadness
• Worry– fear
• Anger And resentment– a secondary emotion to sadness, fear or worry, and hurt or disappointment; Feel powerless with no control; envy, jealousy, resentment; Drains our energy and saps our joy
Adopt a meaningful mantra to release and overcome the emotions tied to your belongings
“It’s time to let this go.”
“Releasing this is not betraying my loved one”
“I’m only keeping what I love, need, and use”
“I know longer need, want or use this”
“I do have control; I do have power”
“I can do this now”
