Rethink and Reframe Your Clutter Language: The Power of Words 2

Online

The way we talk about our stuff is a clue to the undercurrent of feelings and experiences that influence our choices. Words like “useful,” “mess,” and “shame” are loaded with history, meaning, and judgment for each of us, and they can contain the power to keep us stuck or move us forward. In episode #171 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, examines words we use to describe our clutter and suggests how to reframe language for a clearer insight into our stuff and our lives.

The Clutter Fairy Weekly is a live webcast designed to help you clear your clutter and make space in your home and your life for more of what you love. We meet Tuesdays at noon (U.S. Central Time) to answer your decluttering questions and to share organizing tools and techniques, success stories and “ah-hah!” moments, seasonal suggestions, and timeless tips.

Psychological Roots of Clutter: The Perception of Value (Meetup)

Nature Discovery Center 7112 Newcastle St., Bellaire, TX, United States

For the April 2015 meeting of the Houston Clutter Coaching Meetup Group, we return to the theme of psychological roots of clutter. We’ll explore the perception of value—how we assign value to our stuff or our information, and why our notions of perceived value create problems in our physical surroundings. We’ll examine value-based emotional responses and patterns of thinking that sabotage our ability to get or stay organized.
