Wintertime is an especially opportune time to take stock of your belongings, separate what you use or love from everything else, and allow the latter to move on from its place in your home. It’s this time of year you’re likely spending more time inside. Come spring, you might find yourself flinging open the windows to begin some spring cleaning. Wouldn’t it be nice if you’ve already eliminated clutter from your home by then?

The idea of decluttering can sometimes feel overwhelming and come with emotional baggage. We often allow clutter to build when we’re avoiding something or feeling generally anxious.
