I used to think I was the messiest person in the world. Then I thought it would be an interesting challenge to learn how not to be.
But that challenge led me somewhere I didn't expect. I became fascinated by why we accumulate things. Why we avoid. Why getting rid of something can feel so difficult. Why we so often look to our homes, our possessions, and everything outside of ourselves to make us feel secure.
I started studying the psychology, behavior, and spirituality behind our relationship with our things. I learned our homes give us a very practical place to notice attachment, resistance, habits, identity, scarcity, shame, perfectionism, and all the stories we carry.
When we mindfully pay attention to these stories, without judgment, we create space in the mind, which makes letting go in the home effortless.
The contentment we're looking for doesn't come from what we own, organize, buy, achieve, or get rid of.
The goal is to create a more intentional home while discovering that contentment comes from learning how to remember our wholeness, tapping into our innate wisdom, and finding freedom in the present moment.
