Today I'm sharing some thoughts on clutter - how and why clutter happens, my clutter story, the problems with sentimental clutter, and what I am doing to declutter. #decluttering #declutteringmotivation #declutteringandorganizing Join my mailing list for emails that will make your life easier! eepurl.com/iB2aE2 Please subscribe to see more content like this, I'd love to see you around my channel 😊 www.youtube.com/@tarynmaria_?sub_confirmation=1
I think the more space we have, the more clutter we acquire. When I lived in a 2500 sq ft home, of course I had more stuff. Now I’m in a small one bedroom apartment, and I have so much less. Very happy here with less stuff. Only things I need and love. ❤
0:04 Yes, that's called consumerism, it's a mainstream program. Cut out the tv, radio, all news and social media and you'll stop the programming* *Well, reduce it significantly, at least.
Hi from Barcelona, Spain!! I found your channel some weeks ago and I’ve been watching your videos. Thanks for sharing ideas and creating motivational and inspirational content! ❤
I have come to the same conclusion. I think accumulation of clutter - and other things, like traffic, body weight, illness - can't be blamed on either society OR the individual; it is caused by a dynamic between consumerism and our natural tendencies. It feels intuitive to DO something, MAKE things happen, and say YES please, which means aquire stuff, work harder, try to impress, keep up appearances, but today, it's become more important to PREVENT things from happening, which means saying NO THANKS, and LET GO of so many things, and that's really really hard. Oh, and hi from Norway!
I totally agree with what you said about clutter, we accrue so much over the years & don't always go through or can even stop seeing the things we have or how much we own - In my experience owning less & simplifying generally makes me feel so much better 👍😊
Babies do not need bottles. Reduce a lot of clutter right there. Marketing does try to convince parents that they Need many more items than they actually do need.

Yes! I think social media is a huge cause of consumerism for a lot of people.
Yes . I would like to see a video on the impact of clutter video.o
Awesome, Lynn! I’m planning to have one out next Saturday 😊

Oh yay, welcome and I'm so glad you are here!
Clutter is like having a roommate that takes up space but doesn't contribute to the rent.
For sure!
Swedish death cleaning 👍👍

Hello!! Thank you so much for commenting and you are so right - it's so important to prevent things!
I totally agree with what you said about clutter, we accrue so much over the years & don't always go through or can even stop seeing the things we have or how much we own - In my experience owning less & simplifying generally makes me feel so much better 👍😊
Yes - me too, so much better and simpler to own less!
Well said and I'm in! LOL! Been decluttering for years BUT need to shift my thinking so I quit.bringing.stuff.in!!!
Love it!!
I think you are wonderful but why do you have so many dinner plates?
She told you in the first ten seconds!
"Buying things because they appealed at the time, even though there was no real need"
Good question! The top shelf of plates is for holidays and the bottom shelf is for everyday use - but still too many! :)

I used bottles with my babies but it's so true about the marketing. I have so many baby items that I never even used!
