Minimalism-This Uncluttered Course is Worth Joining!


I have definitely taken a set back on my minimalism journey. Since my return to work, my OCD symptoms, anxiety, and depression have skyrocketed. I had to make going back to therapy a priority, even if it means missing an hour of work every other week. I also see my primary again in two weeks since I'm on a seven month waiting list to see a psychiatrist (Seven more months of this? No thanks.)

Though I wasn't able to participate as much as I wanted to on each week's lesson, I think the Uncluttered Course is definitely worth joining. Each lesson is unlocked week by week, but I think it's better to do it that way so you have to focus on one step at a time, especially if you have hoarding tendencies or have anxiety about the act of getting rid of your stuff. Everyone is on the same lesson and you're not doing it alone. The lesson may seem a little pricey, but there is a 20% discount code that's usually posted on Facebook right before the sign up deadline. I was very hesitant because I did pay for two other decluttering courses that I just felt weren't worth it. I was worried this would be the exact same. What makes it different is the unlocking of lessons week by week and the support group. Everyone in that group is so supportive!

Once you sign up for the course, you can request to join the Facebook support group. There is such positivity present there. It is also inspiring so see everyone's stories. People post about getting rid of things that are so difficult to part with. The group lets them know they are not alone, that they've done a great job. For me, it makes me think that I CAN do this. That I am not the only one who struggles, and keeping in mind that life is more than "stuff."

I may have flopped this go round, but once you sign up for the course you can take it over and over again.

Again, the support is the biggest plus. I tried meeting people here and tried to get people I know to try minimalism with me, but this course guarantees you won't be alone.

(I'm not paid or given anything to promote this course. I'm not anyone important or who has followers or things like that. Just hoping to help someone out there who struggles.)

Decluttering-Getting Rid of Facebook

I have a month left of maternity leave. To say that I'm overwhelmed is an understatement. I've spent the last year decluttering my house. I recently realized that I need to declutter my social media as well. I don't have a Twitter or Instagram. I only recently got a Snap Chat. I joined a decluttering group about a month ago. At first it was very helpful. I was glad to find other people who were on the same journey as I. I noticed a few shared blogs of their journeys. I thought that was a fantastic idea and shared three posts of my own. It was then announced that posting your own blog wouldn't be allowed. I panicked. I felt like I was in trouble, that I did something wrong. I am in a state right now where I am struggling postpartum so what some may have seen as not a big deal, was a big deal to me. I apologized for sharing my blog, trying to explain that my own posts would be too long so that's why I shared it. But I continued to panic, and with fight or flight, I...

Makeup Declutter-Why It's Important to Take Pictures!

I'm sure everyone else who is decluttering has already been doing this, but I wish I would have taken before and after pictures of my progress! Sometimes I feel like decluttering is like losing weight; sometimes you can't see your progress and it can become discouraging. I've been decluttering and minimizing for a year now, and some days I feel like my house looks the same. But I know that I have come a long way! I wish I would've taken a photo of our crazy then office with all of the papers that were hoarded in that room. It's now my baby's room and is quite clear. I would love to compare the two though! I was feeling like I could minimize my makeup some more, because it still feels like too much. So I tried to remind myself that I've come a long way. I still had my containers that used to hold my makeup, so I put the two I emptied out next to my makeup bag. I could see that I did clear out a lot of makeup! It's reassuring to see, but I plan on ...
