Clutter-Clearing and Weight Loss

If you've been meaning or hoping to slim down, think of clutter clearing as part of your weight-loss strategy. Clutter in your home surrounds you with a lot of stuck, stagnant energy, which makes it harder to lose weight. Clutter also leads to lack of energy and motivation, which makes it harder to lace up your running shoes or put start that exercise video playing.

When you clear your clutter, you release that stuck energy, and some of the energy that has "stuck" to you in the form of extra pounds may also clear away on its own. An added benefit is that you will feel more energized in an uncluttered space, and are likely to be more enthusiastic about exercising.

Keep clutter clearing in mind as you work on your eating habits, too. Next time you reach for that donut or slice of pizza, recognize that what you are doing is cluttering your body with empty calories and excess weight. Do you really want to do that?

"I have gone down two sizes and 20 pounds. I have no other excuse of why that should be except doing the clutter-clearing. Because of the outer physical clearing, some things in my inner world had to get cleared as well. But after that the weight came off me."
