January 1, 2022- Saturday Declutter Crew
January is a month to pay attention to where you sleep and it’s surroundings. Lay in your bed and look around. Be still and Breathe. What do you see? What do you feel? What looks like it doesn’t belong? What feels cozy?
For me, I sleep on a sofa bed right smack in the living room. I see my journal /junk corner. My secretary desk with lots of decor and pictures. Imagine it a store front - would you love what you see? What parts would you display differently?
This assignment is for an entire month be intentional where you sleep. Clear the clutter. Rearrange - get rid of - clean- donate or trash. Clean and decorate as if you were having a grand opening at your very own store.
This exercise is 30 days long and we will check in every Saturday.
No need to spend money, work with what you have. If you live with others ask their input.
Mainly ask yourself, how do you want to represent your storefront to your self?
At the end of the month we will discuss more on how you did, what blockages surfaced.
Or if you didn’t need to change a thing?
Talk next week.
Start today.
Set a timer for 10 minutes or more and straighten out to start. Increase it each day to get a routine.
Write down a plan on what you want to change. You have 30 days. You can do it.

My intention is to one day implement these suggestions once I’m organized myself. I have way too much around me. I’m working these steps, too. Let’s cheer one another on.
This is my before picture. I suggest you take one, too. You need to see progress for this to work. Like anything in life. You will get out of it what you put into it.
I’m writing, journaling and this looks like a hot mess, there are things I so need to work on. I’m doing this with you .
I totally need to clean the bottom of my desk area and add a comfy chair.
So the 30 days begins.
Don’t forget to take your before pictures!
