My guest Ingrid is part of the dynamic duo from The Declutter Hub podcast and she shares how thinking through the emotions and potential pitfalls can be super helpful to prepare you well for the task of the doing when it comes to decluttering.

For instance, if you have a quantity problem, it requires more than just decluttering a cupboard... you actually need to do some thinking about why you have a clutter problem, what causes the problem, what feeds the problem, how to tackle the clutter itself, what do you need in order to have success... and once you've done the thinking... then you can be strategic in the doing.

Spoon theory - what a gift to those of us with chronic illness, disability or mental health challenges! Spoon theory is a theory anyone can use - it's simply a theory to articulate personal energy levels and capacity on any given day.

Energy is consumed by daily activity, decision making, socialising, talking, listening, thinking, emotions - all your activities require spoons! For some people having a shower requires just one spoon, for someone else it requires 4 spoons - and getting to know your own energy levels is a great tool for self empathy, self actualisation and self advocacy.

Having a cluttered home and trying to manage an excess of possessions, or constantly feeling like you're tidying up uses a lot of spoons. So the habit and activity of decluttering and organising is a great gift to your future self. Less clutter means your daily tidying requires less spoons.

And if you're someone who finds that doing the activity of decluttering requires SO MANY SPOONS, you'll find some great tips in this episode for how to conserve spoons while also moving forward.

If you're stuck on what to declutter next - why not go with some easy decisions and just declutter items which have gone out of date!

This week in the podcast I give you some simple (and maybe not obvious) categories of items that go out of date that you can grab and do a quick declutter of.

• Out of date food
• Out of date make up/ beauty products
• Out of date technology
• Out of date prescriptions
• Out of date user manuals
