As life has gotten so busy with end of the school year, dance season etc for my kids, part of me is kicking myself for not being as active and present on here. Reading everyone’s post on here is always so inspiring and motivating for me. But! Even though I haven’t been active on here for everyone else, I also haven’t given up on myself! I have continued the weekly modules and continued to own the day. My internal clock has started waking me up before my 6am alarm. The food topic has been a big thing for me the last two years as I’ve already done a Yuka app pantry overhaul quite a while back and have been trying to make more conscious buys since then but the low carb days have been new to me AND in the last two or three weeks I’ve stopped eating a full meal at 10pm when I get home from work. I make myself pack leftovers from the day before to eat while I’m there. The move topic is also another one I go through spurts on, some weeks would be great, then months would go by that arent great. I’ve loved every second of my morning yoga followed by one mile walks. But I still need to figure out when and how to incorporate weights into my schedule consistently. Last weeks environment topic is another huge one I’ve always lived by and been aware of for myself. When I come home from work and the house is trashed, my mood immediately goes way down, I feel stressed/overwhelmed. I love that it was called visual noise, it is for me. Some people aren’t as bothered by that, but I’m one that it does. I can’t go to bed without cleaning the kitchen, doing the dishes etc. I’m all about decluttering and can’t wait to do more lol! About a year or two ago I had also went down the Yuka and EWG app and overhauled all my cleaning products, body products (goodbye bath and body works), toothpaste you name it. Next on my List for that is medicine cabinet… Has anyone ever used the brand Earthley? I’ve been so interested for the last year. I didn’t realize this rant would be so long but I just woke up today, did my meditation outside for the first time in a few weeks rather than in the house and the sound of nature, sun on my face, fresh air has me feeling so good today!

So this video was right up my alley. I am all about clean clutter free spaces and honestly have a hard time relaxing if something needs to be done. Problem is I have 4 kids and a husband who do not have the same level of clutter free need as I do. As a result, I am constantly picking up behind people and become resentful in the process. I would love some suggestions on how to get the others in my home to care as much as I do. And don’t get me started with the barn because if you haven’t had an argument with your kids in the barn about the importance of putting things back in the exact place you got it from then honestly … is it really a barn? I can’t tell you how many times the box cutter we use for the hay bales has been misplaced! I do understand that the alternative is I could let go a little bit but …. I’m type A and want it my way. Seriously though, my family helps and they aren’t jerks or anything I just have a lower clutter threshold than they do
