These ideas will help you declutter, even if nothing else works.

As a former shopaholic turned minimalist, I know that decluttering can feel overwhelming. I promise these decluttering tips will help.

Before you start decluttering, spend some time getting in the right mindset. Remember, decluttering is physical and emotional work. Getting your head in the game is half the work.

Work on your mindset first

Before you start decluttering, take a few minutes to think about the result you want to achieve. This vision will help you make decisions about what to keep, and it will also help you stay motivated.

Decide ahead of time what to do with your unwanted stuff

If you struggle with similar fears, tackle them head-on. Be as specific as possible—the details will help you feel less afraid and empower you to make confident decisions.

Set reasonable expectations
