••• A LITTLE ABOUT ME •••
At the end of 2018, my husband and I quit our jobs, sold our yoga studio and 90% of our possessions and moved into our 1969 VW bus. We spent 18 months traveling the globe exploring, rock climbing, adventuring and eating delicious vegan food along the way. We recently settled in Joshua Tree, CA with our pup Gypsy, and have been adjusting to a minimalist life in a house.

Love this! It’s great to see even in such a minimalist home you can still regularly edit and see if items are current. Thank you Rebecca!

Cheers for this, been searching for "get rid of clutter in your life" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Vanonnor Tenhloe k - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my brother in law got great success with it.

I feel like older generations had many things inside their house in an attempt to fill a void, hoarding for when their personal economy would be bad, unable to detach themselves from their own history, unable to throw away things from someone who diet because of guilt, uneducated when it came to opposing consumerism tactics against them. I started throwing/moving stuff away in order to find peace and calm my mind. I don't need many things. But I need my sanity. Enjoyed this video and your process, I found my mindset with trying to clean my place work in similar ways and it's nice to see that I am not alone. Best of happiness to you.

On the flip side....I feel like younger generation is so detached from things and people that nothing’s important, so they need or want very little or nothing. Or...they come use and borrow things from those that have because they are too cheap to buy their own. Uneducated an Uncaring. The throw away generation.

@@patriciareed3510 Today's products are made cheap and built with planned obsolescence in mind. Not to mention, we don't make enough $$ to buy super expensive items right away. We have to buy the cheaply made items first (or used/borrowed items). Personally, I don't see the point in having a bunch of knick knacks around the house like my parents. It's just stuff. I'd rather spend my money on a trip and seeing the world.

My latest declutter is getting ready for a dog. Trying to see the space through her eyes, moving things around that I don't want potentially destroyed and getting rid of anything no longer needed in the process! I love a good declutter and am always surprised at how much more I am able to find.

My husband is bad about throwing away my things. He intentionally threw away two small flower pots I absolutely loved and broke them in the process. And then he’s unintentionally threw away or donated a bag of my socks and some clothes. We moved and he went nuts with the declutter process. I wasn’t very happy about it but he apologized. And now he still occasionally does it when he’s super focused. It’s hard when moving, having a baby and remodeling while living in the house. lol We are more minimal now then before baby and a lot more minimal than when we first met. It just makes life so much easier to have less to keep track of. And now I can clean our whole house pretty fast which is helpful with a toddler.

@meghandavitt1618 4 жыл бұрын
Your tips are great! It is also nice to remember that decluttering is an on going process that has to be revisited from time to time. I've found it helpful to use a seasonal approach. When the weather changes, it's time to go through things. I think sometimes people declutter once and then get disappointed a few months or a year later by the accumulation of stuff that still happens.

Hi Sara! I totally agree. Decluttering is an ongoing process. I used the scanner a lot in my first year of decluttering.
