    Declutter Your Mind, Declutter Your Space: Finding Clarity and Serenity in the Midst of Mental Health Challenges

    Be honest with yourself and take action. Setting Realistic Goals When it comes to decluttering, to avoid getting overwhelmed, it's not just about starting small. A vital component is setting realistic goals. Each person's capacity differs, especially when dealing with depression or anxiety. It's essential to understand your limits and work within those constraints rather than aiming for big, unrealistic targets. An attainable goal keeps you motivated, whereas a daunting one could put you off entirely. Nicky Asher-Bowling emphasized this a lot during the session. There was a certain relatability when she shared how she started from decluttering one single drawer and then worked her way up. She stressed the importance of being kind to oneself, accounting for the gradual pace as an achievement rather than a drawback. Her message to listeners in a similar situation: Every small step counts, and it's okay if things take more time. An insightful takeaway indeed! Starting Small and Setting Realistic Goals There's no rulebook for decluttering that states that you have to clean out your entire house in a day or a week. Don't put unnecessary pressure on yourself! Take baby steps, start with a small task like cleaning a single corner or organizing a drawer, and gradually increase your target. Remember to set realistic goals - targets that are achievable for you. Nicky Asher-Bowling touched upon this when sharing her own journey in the podcast. It's fascinating to hear about her approach - how she started small with the task of decluttering. She stressed creating a comfortable pace for yourself without feeling overwhelmed. In her own words, decluttering should be 'a marathon, not a sprint.' It's good advice for anyone, even those not dealing with depression or anxiety.
