Decluttering as Self-Care
Decluttering as Self-Care
When most people hear the word decluttering, they think about cleaning out closets or donating old boxes. But for me, decluttering has always been about something much deeper. It’s about caring for myself.
When I started my own decluttering journey, I wasn’t just facing piles of laundry, cluttered counters, and overstuffed closets, I was facing the weight of burnout, stress, and shame. My home reflected how I felt inside: overwhelmed and exhausted.
But little by little, as I began to clear the clutter, I noticed something I didn’t expect: I felt lighter. I had more energy. I could breathe again. It wasn’t just about my home looking better, it was about me feeling better.
That’s when I realized: decluttering is self-care.
Here’s why:
🌿 It gives you breathing room. Every item you let go of creates more space, not just on your shelves, but in your mind and heart.
🌿 It reduces stress. When you don’t have to fight with overstuffed drawers or cluttered counters, your whole day feels calmer.
🌿 It honors your limits. Decluttering helps you recognize that you don’t have to carry everything, physically or emotionally. You can let go.
🌿 It creates space for joy. The less time and energy you spend managing “stuff,” the more you can spend on the people and experiences that actually matter.
I’ll never forget the first time I walked into my laundry room after I decluttered it during a challenge. Instead of feeling dread, I felt…peace. I had turned a space I once hated into one that supported me. That shift was bigger than just laundry, it was about reclaiming a part of my life.
And here’s the truth: when we clear space in our homes, we’re also clearing space in ourselves. We’re making room for rest, for joy, for possibility.
So the next time you pick up a pile of papers, or fold a load of laundry, or let go of something that no longer serves you, I want you to remember: you’re not just decluttering. You’re practicing self-care. You’re creating space for the life you want and the person you’re becoming.

Testimonials
''I highly recommend her for your
next organizational project!''
''Everyone needs a non-judgmental “best friend” who will work shoulder-to-shoulder with you as you work toward your organizational goals. Julie is that best friend. In the kindest and gentlest way, Julie helped me work through a large project in smaller, more manageable tasks. She kept me focused on the task at hand, dealing with both the physical and emotional attachment I had with some of the items I had held on to for much too long. Whether it’s a short-term or long-term project, Julie can help you get to the finish line! I highly recommend her for your next organizational project!'' - Kathy
''She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life''
''My experience with Julie was incredible. She is a kind, calming, safe space. I enjoyed the exercise we did together. It really help me view my emotions from a different perspective. She knew what questions to ask and how to help me analyze my feelings. She’s educated in what she does. I would love to do it again with her!! She opened my mind to new tools and strategies into my daily life. ❤️❤️❤️''- Kate
''It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control''
''The exercise was quick and effective. It quickly gave me perspective on how I allow my emotions take control. It’s interesting how I had immediate answers to the questions I was asked. I can only speak for myself, but this changed my thoughts for that day and I was present. I did continue to think about the exercise the following day and tried to remember how I felt when I answered the questions. I believe it was effective. I plan on using that exercise or at least remember what I answered when I feel like I’m spiraling or overthinking my thoughts'' - Maritza
''I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.''
''Being in this community with Julie’s guidance has helped me to understand about Self Care and Self Love, two concepts that were very foreign to me. I get it know, and I’m learning more all the time about how the way I feel about myself and take care of myself is related to so many aspects of my life, including my relationships and decluttering my home.'' - Laura
