We can have a feeling of discontentment or even lose our sense of peace in our own home. But when you removed all the stuff that isn’t useful or loved, all that is left is those things you really need. Then the peace can return to your home after the weight of all that extra stuff is gone.

  1. I listened to your podcast the other day, Shelly, and I enjoyed it. I’ve definitely kept things like baby clothes and baby “stuff” for WAY longer than I should have “just in case.” I’ve donated the vast majority of those items plus a lot more over the past few years, and it feels good to not have to think about them or move them from house to house. 🙂

  2. I really like all the tips you share in your podcast. The thing that I always struggle with is getting rid of things that I spent a good deal of money on or things that were given to me as gifts. I feel so guilty for giving them away, even though I no longer use them.

    Last weekend we decluttered our closets again (I do it every spring and fall) and got rid of about 5 bags of clothes between the 4 of us. That seemed like a lot, but the kids outgrew so much over the winter, and my husband and I lost so much weight that we had to get rid of our bigger clothes. I hope that some other people can get some good use out of them.
