As we reach Spring Equinox here I am getting ready to celebrate Spring and the new energy of growth. And as more light enters my home, my eye is drawn here and there to notice a bit of clutter. Sometimes it's just a book on the dinner table or a file left in the kitchen, and these are easily reorganized to leave a sense of peace and calm. At other times I am noticing the pile of files I have put out to remind me of a project, but there they sit, gathering dust. Sigh.
A client made the observation the other day that clutter felt like so many unmade decisions. And wow, I could resonate with that! Sometimes we have so many things on the go we are constantly juggling the tasks and decisions needed to keep it all going. Most of us have more tasks, responsibilities, projects, related to work, home, family and self care than we can possibly keep up with. And this breeds clutter. It's not that we are lazy or irresponsible, it's simply that we can't keep up with it all!
The comment about clutter representing unmade decisions feels very accurate to me. Our nervous systems can only process so much information at a time, and when we are overloaded with stress, our nervous system shuts down and we have some emotional and cognitive clutter that seems to fill the room around us. And the hardest part of clearing the clutter is the decisions involved in "what do I do with this?!!!"
My own relationship with clutter has evolved over many years from of fighting it, feeling guilty for it and feeling powerless to change it. I recognized at one point that clutter could dissolve if I gave myself space for self care and took regular steps to reduce stress and build more capacity for my nervous system to work the way it was designed.
And at this equinox, balance is the theme. I'm tapping through some irritation with clutter clearing and as I do that find that the decisions of what to do with this and that seems to be made easily. And this is building some momentum for new visions and planting some seeds for spring growth.
Wishing you clear space to create something beautiful this spring!

Join my friend and colleague, Candace Fox on Wednesday, April 3rd @ 6PM EST or Saturday, April 6th @ 2PM EST as she dives into the intricate and (in her my opinion) under-discussed and not well-known connection between AD[H]D and co-occurring eating disorders.
In this 60-minute presentation, attendees will discover how the challenges of AD[H]D symptomology can intertwine with patterns of disordered eating - both deeply impacting and exasperating the other. Candace's goal is to share insightful and enlightening research on the topic - looking at genetic and biological factors that hugely impact a person's likelihood of having both AD[H]D and developing an eating disorder.
What people are saying... I would recommend Georgia’s approach and work to people who are experiencing symptoms of trauma or anxiety, especially related to ourselves individually and our shared future on the planet. She creates a safe space for those of us interested in taking charge of creating positive transition for ourselves in a changing world. - NS
