Organised Chaos

I work holistically which means my focus is not just on your excess 'stuff'. I know from experience that if you want a long lasting solution to clutter you have to go deeper than just a tidying exercise. Chances are you've tried to declutter on multiple occasions and always stalled. You might tell yourself you don't have enough time, you're too busy, or you're waiting to sell it all on e-bay one day soon. Deep down you know you are stuck and just can't face the emotions that are connected to whatever you have hung onto quite probably for years. My approach is always gentle. Any session goes at your pace, whether that's a remote Zoom session or a home visit. However, I do ask a few questions as we go along, all intended to boost your self-awareness. Once you know the real reasons you've kept stuff then you can begin to make choices that will help you feel better. I'm certainly not against keeping things out of sentiment but often this belief that there is a sentimental connection is not the full story. Sometimes it masks a whole lot of head clutter. I'm not ultra-minimalist at home. It's up to you if that's what you want to go for. Periodically I tackle my own cluttter - just so you know I'm not immune! My main challenge however has been with head clutter. Sometimes this causes home clutter, but not always. You will know if you have head-clutter if you frequently find yourself reacting to situations in a way that makes you feel bad inside. Also, if there are things you want to do, but something inside seems to stop you in your tracks. It's the unkind voice that mutters things like, "you're useless!" or "nobody cares about you" and so on. In recent years I have learned a lot about how to disarm this voice and so I now offer Zoom coaching sessions specifically for this purpose. To be more precise they are aimed at helping you become the REAL you! Are you self-employed or running a small business? Do you feel disconnected from your office function? Would you like to be more organised and less stressed? I have experience of working with creative people and therapists who really don't want to engage with routine admin. I've helped them declutter irrelevant paperwork and other stuff from their office (often the back bedroom) as well as coming up with intuitive straightforward systems that suit their individual style. Even in a small business situation emotions can be key to resolving clutter issues. After all, becoming self-employed is a big leap of faith. I hope you are inspired by my approach to holistic decluttering? Provided you are prepared to look inside yourself for the answers then I can most definitely help you.
