We know that accumulating clutter is much more than a physical struggle. The act of holding on to things (physical and mental) is actually an instinctive reflex to distract us from the heart of deeper issues we’re ignoring.
The process of decluttering is actually quite simple, it’s the deeper reality of our attachments to the past or anxiety for the future that takes away from experiencing inspiration in the present moment from a clutter-free home.
One may experience moments of fear and doubt when thinking about purging their belongings. But one mustn't fret, because as long as the choice is to keep items that inspire, what will be left will be all the amount one needs.
Hold the vision, trust the process.
The process of facing and selecting our possessions can be quite scary and sometimes even painful. It forces us to confront our shortcomings and the issues we’ve dealt with in the past.
