39 why Decluttering is Like Mini Therapy
from Mum As You Are Hosted by Erin Bowe
If you struggle to practice self-compassion, know you're not alone! In this episode I talk about: Why telling Mums "don't worry about the mess!" can be invalidating How buying my kids stuff from Kmart to get a dopamine hit through lockdowns was OK. How it's also OK to move that stuff along now, along with all the gifts family wanted to give them after not seeing them for a while. Normalising mum rage Why clutter can be triggering for childhood wounds. I talk about my own ancestral patterning around poverty vs having too much "stuff" How to practise self-compassion by allowing ourselves to sit with the negative emotions that come up when we have regret or shame around purchases or things we've brought into the house that we don't use, want or even like! If you'd like to follow along my slow living journey on my YouTube channel I also send a weekly email and have old school-style pen pals rather than use social media :)
