Wednesday quote!

Often people don't (fully) realize how much our environment influences our mood and with it our mental health. Colors, smells and textures that for whatever reason irritate us, can have a negative affect on how we feel at home - along with clutter. Whereas a calm and serene environment helps us to be able to relax, heal and recharge ♡

If you haven't seen it yet and therefor may not have heard these words yet, then carve out around 8 minutes of self-care time to watch my latest video on how we can continue to improve our lives both for ourselves and - even if just by extension - others:

Hi all! As always I like to share a quote of my latest video during the following week. I think that the main (or unique? take out of this one is about how you can make cleaning more fun by creating positive sensory experiences. In case you missed it and still want to see:

I think this might be the biggest message from my latest video on decluttering guilt: ask yourself if the money clutter cost in the past is worth more than your sanity now. We often feel guilt about buying something and then not using it or tossing it. But is that worth the stress you're experiencing over all that stuff?

One of the messages from my newest video: aim for progress, not perfection. Aiming for perfection often blocks us from starting in the first place. Changing that mindset helped me SO much in getting stuff done 🩷

My newest video is all about how I learned to think that cleaning is actually a form of self-care. How do you feel about cleaning vs self-care?

You can find the video here: https://youtu.be/Y0RztVs63XM

All the cleaning tasks on my to do list kept beating me down for years, until I started seeing cleaning as self-care. Between not really knowing what to do, forgetting everything and having a brain that's different in the executive functioning part, I didn't accomplish much in the cleaning department (oh and my hoarding probably didn't help there either). Until a huge shift in me happened. A shift that I want to share with you, hoping that it'll make life better for you too.

If this video helped you in any way, shape or form and you'd like to learn more about my journey towards a cleaner and tidier home, then feel free to like my page as you try this mindshift on how cleaning is self-care for yourself.

P.s. I even like cleaning now, who knew.
