I have negative emotions attached to them and deep down, knows I won't hang them up ever again. I think my mind has placed high value on them from past times when I had more money.
How do you feel when you think about letting go of the item you described in your answer to the previous question?At first, tons of freedom and empowerment. That immediately turns to overwhelm and exhaustion which totally shuts me down. I also feel a sense of doom, loss, lack, and hopelessness.
My world was ripped out from under me when I was suddenly and unexpectedly forced to choose me and my children's safety over my marriage and lifestyle. We lived 10 years in poverty before our financial situation began improving. It makes sense I'd hold on to items linked to my past life, and security.
Complete the following statement: “I know I won’t keep this item forever, so I would like ___.”...to get some money for it.
However, the past couple months, that statement is beginning to change (a little) to "let it go to anyone who can get good use out of it".
Fill in the blank: “Watching and listening to The Clutter Fairy Weekly makes me want to try ___.”Living with less
