There are moments when you walk into your home and instead of feeling comforted, you feel tired. Not because anything is terribly wrong, but because the space around you feels noisy, unfinished, or demanding. Little piles that never quite disappear. Corners that quietly remind you of things you haven’t had the energy to deal with yet. When Your Home Starts to Feel Heavy If this feels familiar, you’re not alone. Our homes often reflect the seasons we’re moving through. Busy ye

There’s a kind of exhaustion that doesn’t come from a full calendar, but from carrying too much for too long. It’s the kind that lingers even after rest, the kind that makes simple decisions feel heavy and leaves you wondering why you don’t feel like yourself anymore. When Exhaustion Runs Deeper Than Busyness If you’ve been feeling this way, I want you to hear this clearly: nothing is wrong with you. Many women in my Mindful Simplicity Community aren’t looking for another rou

For a long time, I believed that feeling overwhelmed was simply part of adulthood. I thought being busy, scattered, and mentally overloaded was normal. But over time, I realized something important: my constant sense of overwhelm wasn’t inevitable — it was the result of living without intention and structure. When my life felt disorganized, everything seemed harder than it needed to be. My energy was scattered, my focus was thin, and even simple tasks felt heavy. But when I b

Have you ever had that moment where you finally declutter a space, your closet, your kitchen, maybe even the garage, and for a few days it feels amazing? The room feels lighter. You feel calmer. Almost proud. And then, slowly, without you really noticing how it happened, the clutter creeps back in. The drawers fill again. The closet starts to feel tight. The surfaces collect things. And suddenly you’re right back where you started, wondering why this keeps happening. If that

For years I felt overwhelmed every time I looked at my cluttered spaces. I wanted a calm, peaceful home, one where I could exhale, but even the idea of decluttering felt heavier than the clutter itself. Maybe you’ve been there too. You look around and think, “Where do I even begin?” Every method feels exhausting. Every attempt ends in frustration. Decluttering doesn’t have to be a marathon, a weekend-long project, or a transformation that leaves you drained. When I finally ch

If you’ve been moving through your days feeling emotionally tired, I want you to know—you’re not alone. There are seasons in life when even the simplest things feel heavy. The laundry piles up, the kitchen feels chaotic, and the thought of “decluttering” or “getting organized” sounds like one more impossible task. "Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax." - Mark Black I’ve been there too, and here’s something I’ve learned: when your energy is low, the usual a

I’m a simple person who likes living a simple life. Of course, there are times when life is complicated. When life throughs a curveball and difficult things happen. Life can be messy and is not always rainbows and unicorns. In many situations, life isn’t complicated but it’s how I’m living life. Simplifying life can be about adding things to make life easier, it can also be about eliminating things to live a simpler life. Keep it Simple Sometimes I can fall into the pattern o

Being on this minimalist journey and practicing living mindfully, Decluttering has become a regular practice for me. I feel a sense of peace and calm when my home is neat, tidy, and clutter-free. I hope you will too. When we begin our minimalist journey, it can feel overwhelming to declutter everything all at once. I found it easier and more manageable to tackle an area of the home each day over seven days. As you declutter your home, keep in mind that there is no "right" way

Mindfulness, to me, is about being aware of my surrounding, my thoughts, and my actions. Over the years, I have adopted some morning rituals that have enriched my life. I thought I would share these with you in hopes that they will bring you a little joy and happiness. My slow mornings have become an essential part of my day. I cherish the quiet morning hours. I begin my day by drinking a large glass of lukewarm wake me up, water to help with digestion, circulation to organs.

Being present is easier said than done. I've been living mindfully for years, but I'm not a zen master. Mindfulness is a lifelong practice. Harvard study found that we spend 50% of our time not thinking about what we are doing. We think about our past or worrying about the future, sometimes we are consumed by what we need to do that day. However, our thoughts are not in the present moment. Making small steps to be mindful and live in the present is a gift to yourself. Living

"Live your life, take chances, be crazy. Don't wait. Because right now you are the oldest you have ever been and the youngest you'll ever be." - Suzanne Collins This is it! This is the only life you have. Live every moment. Start living fully today. It is the moments now that make up your life. You are where you are in life because of what you chose to do at the moment.
