I got the Mari Kondo book put it on the shelf and now it's part of my clutter, not read it yet 😏 Comment from : @artfullfox9 |

Personally, I don't think you just declutter once You declutter Your life goes on At some point you may decide you've got clutter - so you declutter again And so on You might unwittingly acquire clutter as you go along; but also, your idea of what you can live without can change, especially if you find how good life can be without the clutter Comment from : @baruchben-david4196 |

Followed immediately! You have such a calming aura and channel, you’ve helped me feel better and more motivated about the mountain of stuff we’ve accumulated in my family home since we’ve been moving from rental to rental We bought a house a few years ago and it feels like we cant even enjoy it or eachother cause things have piled up from when we were all kids and we didn’t even realize This is definitely helping me change that guilt mindset into motivation for the airy, spacious and full home life ahead Thank you💕 Comment from : @BagLadyy_ |

Wait In what universe does one consider and another encourage: "decluttering" an old heirloom family photo? No space for it on a wall or behind a shelf unit in your garage or basement? No mention of offering it to a relative? I'm speechless 😢 Comment from : @nocturnalintern4150 |

I have some dishes from my mom, ash trays from my dad, and utensils from my dad's folks My husband had things from his folks There's a difference between havingbrand using things you like and feeling like you must keep every thing someone touched Tina, Al's wife Comment from : @alanbirkner1958 |

Over the years I've periodically decluttered junk - small improvement, definitely good But this week I only kept the very best/most needed and decluttered all of the rest, including perfect good things Very different mindset Simplifying is the best preparation I know for heading into a challenging life season Comment from : @dixydarlin56 |

The only items I allow myself to purchase is clothing For many, many years I wore rags as I never had a decent incomeI didn't own a car, cell phone, and worked too many jobs to make it I finally can now establish a wardrobe an feel and look beautiful for a change I wasted my youth looking drab in rags, I will buy clothes I love and love my clothes!

I fill a box every week for Goodwill or another thrift shop I have one small container for each craft supply One shelf for books about crafts I get rid of stuff andbrmore comes More rummage sales, more trash picks, more thrift shop finds- there is always more Tina, Al's wife Comment from : @alanbirkner1958 |

I told my family they no longer need to by me gifts If they had to gift cards to Apple, Amazon or Starbucks They we start discussing decluttering Comment from : @danacalloway5370 |

I’ve heard about asking those who love to give gifts to ask them for the gift of an experience They get to show you love in a way that is easy to receive, doesn’t require decluttering, and creates a happy memory that may last a lifetime Comment from : @sl9906 |

I think being intentional about what you have around you in your life allows you to let go of things that do not serve you but could serve others, family members, friends, those in need For me, the term minimalism can sound stark and scary because it can make you feel guilty about having for example meaningful objects that make your heart sing on display I am working on making sure that all my storage areas are decluttered and organized and having a strict policy of not bringing anything into the house that is not needed specifically for a purpose (replacing a frying pan, glassware or clothing items) Your comments about how certain decisions are emotional are very important to consider My goal is living an unburdened life style that allows me to be open to new possibilities For me minimalism is unburdening Comment from : @sarahbaud1776 |

thanks for your video, it was really relaxing to watch Comment from : @lannt2225 |

I was not expecting that point on obsessive compulsive disorder! But that seems very important, the idea that stopping yourself from living in what if thinking helps train your brain away from obsessive compulsion I like to think if you are living a ton of What Ifs you’re trying to live all these separate lives but you are only meant to live one good one Comment from : @kristinamelnichenko5775 |

If you are holding onto something out of guilt that is a perfect reason to get rid of it! Comment from : @kristinamelnichenko5775 |

The point on nostalgia is so important We just moved into a house with painted walls (after renting for 13 years) and I realized that putting up all of my memorabilia would return me to essentially living in a shrine to the past I have decided that one picture each of my important people is enough brWith memorabilia it’s also a very easy theme of decorating that really does not have a style, and it’s so easy to just keep adding stuff to that collection I just don’t want to be around that much stuff Comment from : @kristinamelnichenko5775 |
|
On the part about sharing your journey with others, this would probably be really helpful when it feels bad to not have all of the framed pictures up that you did before I have thought about what my family would think about the fact that I moved to this new house and didn’t put up any of the old memories that would remind me of them I have even found myself blaming it on Covid, explaining that I needed less stimulant around me It would probably be good to share the fact that you’re reframing your surroundings so they know that’s why the pictures are getting put awaybrbrThank you for the video!

My sister will declutter clothes, which she has way too much of, and will put them in her car to donate It's been over a year and she still has all those bags in her trunk So, if you are going to take the time to do all this work and it's hard to part with things, give yourself a deadline to taking action Comment from : @madonnahagedorn5649 |

As the eldest and a daughter, there is a lot of family pressure to keep stuff I trashed an old raffle quilt from my Grandmother that was literally disintegrating, I received actual anger from several family members Fortunately I took a few photos of the damage for reference Comment from : @susanbertrand8620 |
|
I’ve been decluttering and downsizing For me the biggest mistake was trying to declutter all at once Some things I should sell/donate/toss are just too hard to do So I did a round 1 declutter of the things that were easy to remove I’m working on round 2 now and things that were too hard to get rid of last time, are much easier this time I think for some of us, taking it in steps is less painful Comment from : @ElaineEC |

My daughter is a minimalist, and I’m trying to be, but due to circumstances, I can’t right now brI suggest that if you know a minimalist, give a gift certificate or money for a child’s education Comment from : @Tinyteacher1111 |

The “what ifs” is such a big thing for me Thank you for explaining it Comment from : @maryrose1216 |

I listened to all these decluttering videos and I regret every day that I threw away valuable 📚 books I can't get them any more and my place didn't become any better Comment from : @vessyioannou259 |
|
A problem I have with a lot of decluttering videos is the need!!!! To buy containers, to store the items in your bathroom drawers etc The 333 project is wonderful for clothes, discovered by not counting my farm work clothes, that I wear one outfit a week So need only a few tweaks for each season Comment from : @helenstewart2085 |
|
I want to downsize because I have too much stuff which I feel is causing me stress but I also have to downsize because I lost my husband of almost 33 years this year and I have all his stuff and lastly but not least, I am planning on retiring in a few years and plan on living in the country of my birth which is not the US and I can’t take much with me for obvious reason I also realized that too often I was buying stuff for emotional reasons Comment from : @catkozia6565 |

Your watch is beautiful🥰 Comment from : @essvirk3467 |

If I had a minimalist house I would have time to visit the memorabilia that would be limited and organised It beats useless and meaningless decore bought because I wanted a room to look like someone’s room on YouTube or instagram, etc Comment from : @narelleworks8448 |

Poverty causes clutter You tend to hang on to everything you get as a gift or find Hobbies can also cause clutter Having kids causes clutter The house is never big enough to hold their things from age 0 to 25 Sprouting plants causes you to keep too many containers I have knitted a few things but a time to knit comes so seldom Things which could be repaired stack up too Also, if you don't have a car, imagine that, how do you get things to the recycling center? Once you buy something, it is there Also, trying to change the look of your home just to have a better day, you end up with so many different towels for kitchen and bath Thrift shop and Red Cross could maybe help Remember, things get dusty Buy it, increase your at-home workload I take out glass jars to the glass container each day 2 more cupboards to go Comment from : @cefcat5733 |

Memorabilia may become really important to you as you age, as older people often remember things from earlier in their life better than more recent events Comment from : @helenparker1870 |

I have a friend who has tons of stuff, much of which she hasn’t seen in years yes years She gets into the boxes to remove it and bam her emotional attachment takes over I started moving stuff with her five years ago Some items are still there, she won’t move them She is in that vicious cycle things go out more comes in Comment from : @lechatbotteakbottebean |

Stuff Belongings r saving money Stop buying Stop believing nothing is the way Comment from : @wendy-leemorrissirrom8636 |

So right! The old ways of thinking about stuff can be really problematic Societal scripts, guilt, expectations etc etc 🙏🏽💙 Comment from : @cheerfulstrength940 |
|
I really liked tip no 1:) I have decluttered already a huge amount of stuff But am a bit frustrated because there are things I would like to get rid of because we use them rarely, however we do use them from time to time and there is no substitute for it that could do the job as well as the other item Comment from : @annaalm18 |

“Process of de-brainwashing ourselves” So good 😊 I actually have to break a sweat to NOT buy things and bring more stuff into my home It’s ridiculous! Comment from : @meghanlozada |
|
This has helped me Sooo much with the emotional, sentimental objects that I want to declutter but feel guilty about Thank you so much! Comment from : @longtimelurker6504 |
|
One thing for me was realizing that I'll never be a minimalist and I dont want to be, thats just not who I am I like decoration, I like having memories on show in my house, I like clothes and dressing in different styles I dont like the asthetic of a minimalist home But I wanna make sure that everything I own I really use or that has a place and purpose And I want to stop buying things without thinking/without planning Comment from : @eviozyra6300 |

The whole section on guilt - I needed to hear that! Guilt is probably the #1 obstacle in my decluttering I grew up poor, as did my husband which makes it so hard to get rid of things I need to post "Just because you feel guilt about decluttering something doesn't mean it's wrong" Thanks for the great video - I am now a subscriber Comment from : @va1445 |

Your videos address decluttering for people who don't actually have clutter Hoarding is a mental illness Being a shopaholic is a mental illness Leave the couch psychology out of your videos and stick to the practical Comment from : @arawakriesch7297 |

Great video, thanks Comment from : @brendasparks6234 |

So many good points The biggest hurdle for my family was getting rid of stuff my parents/grandparents dragged here from their home country Completely useless things, but trying to get rid of them triggers tantrums, "But we brought it all the way from ______!" and "This was so important to Grandma that she sold her engagement ring to get money to ship it across the ocean!" I have no attachment to stuff in general, so it drives me crazy I dread the possibility that someday I might be the one who has to deal with the bins of rotting clothes and moldy knickknacks that fill every available space in their houses Comment from : @michellearamis |
|
Maybe treat day out to reward each room declutter Pedicure, movie, lunch with friend! Comment from : @victoriajohnson3034 |
|
My downfall was keeping items for others Either their storage, they might need later, they don't want me to let it go, they will feel bad if i let it go I wasnt living my own life Comment from : @victoriajohnson3034 |
|
I found that it's much easier to choose containers and space allowed before i start decluttering It either fits or doesn't and i feel powerful instead of loss Comment from : @victoriajohnson3034 |

Ask the people in your life to not pass things or purchase for you for 12 months Find a new way to celebrate holidays without gifts!!! Comment from : @victoriajohnson3034 |
