Re: The magic of tidying
I first started doing this like 30 years ago . Literally everything I owned in world spread out over the floor. I would only notice it when other people saw it. @EternalFlower
maybe start with a few things , throwing out something you don't need or clearing a path at least. You Will feel better

Re: The magic of tidying
Hi TAB I like the way u describe it.
It's my floor and every surface. Like on my dining chairs there's clothes and towels.
I have this https://www.kmart.com.au/product/rattan-cabinet-42893677/?selectedSwatch=&size= and am trying to figure out what to use it for?
Would love any suggestions @TAB @Dimity @Sophia1 @Shaz51 @RedHorse
I feel good when I throw stuff out, I sorted my books and am so proud and happy.
But it's the next Kondo category, "komono" that's too much.

Re: The magic of tidying
Hi all, thanks for the awesome tips.
I have been sorting through clothes and found I have a lot that don't fit, and we're not quite right.
I find giving stuff away mindfully helps me a lot.
But other times I have less energy and put stuff on the side of the road or throw away

Re: The magic of tidying
That sounds good @EternalFlower .
We've got our annual hard rubbish collection next week so I'll be able to put out a few things.
I've been slowly working through a box of old receipts and guarantees. I can add shredded paper to the green bin (non-personal stuff I put in recycling). I just picked up another 4 boxes from storage - more stuff to sort and cull.
