We all want a happy, clear mind and this starts at home. If you are living in messy, cluttered rooms this will have a negative impact on you and could slow you down.
I challenge you to chuck away items that are not needed. I have created a list below to give you some ideas of items that you no longer need you and will be surprised at how good this makes you feel.
Remember not all items need to be thrown in the bin. Some can be taken to the charity shop or you can have a carboot sale so organise two boxes one for rubbish and one for charity/carboot.
- Out of date news paper and magazines
- Scraps of wrapping paper
- Old paperwork, but make sure you shred anything with personal details on.
