Honour your memories

Why take this course?

We've all got sentimental items - me included. And there's nothing wrong with that.

It's LOVELY to have stuff around that reminds us of happy times and people we love or loved.

Our memories are precious.

But...

...what if you've got so MANY items that you don't get to APPRECIATE your memories?

What if you can't find your most precious memorabilia because you're overwhelmed with sentimental items?

Sentimental items are the HARDEST of all to declutter. The fear of letting go of something - and then missing it - can be paralysing.

But having sentimental clutter (instead of sentimental items) keeps you stuck in the past: living with old, dead energy, instead of creating the future you want - and deserve.

So I'm here to help you tackle it - gently and without regrets.

Honour the past without being held back by it.

Understand the natural, deep, psychological reasons why we get attached to things.

Make time to declutter and learn my simple, foolproof 7-step decluttering process.

Learn a TON of ways to make letting go of sentimental items easier.

How to find great new homes for the stuff you're letting go - and make the MOST of the stuff you're keeping.

How to stop sentimental clutter creeping back.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to let go of the sentimental items that are no longer serving you - and are keeping you stuck - and really ENJOY the ones you keep, while stepping into the future you deserve. What would you LIKE to come into your life?!

Me gustó el curso, las explicaciones de por qué guardamos tantos objetos queridos ayudan a entender las bases del problema. La instructora explica claramente y los puntos tratados son los más importantes para iniciar la tarea de organizar cualquier espacio. Me ha sido muy útil desde las primeras lecciones.

I enjoyed picking up additional information and a few new ways to repurpose or reduce sentimental items. It's a good course for anyone struggling with how to deal with sentimental items, as it addresses quite a lot of the emotional feelings and how to deal with that. Useful resources too.

I really liked the information. Teacher was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. Only reason for 4 stars was the quality of the video/ sound. Would definitely recommend.

A good, brief course on decluttering sentimental items. The short length makes it possible to watch in one sitting. The instructor's friendly and encouraging manner helps a LOT when confronting the anxiety of decluttering. The case studies and before/after photos helped a lot, too. The course presents good information throughout, from how the human brain works to practical ways to let things go. I've read, watched and listened to a lot of decluttering books and shows over the years. The gentle and positive approach of this course makes it a good companion piece to Nagisa Tatsumi's THE ART OF DISCARDING and Marie Kondo's books and TV show. I periodically revisit Tatsumi and Kondo's works before tackling a decluttering project. I will likely rewatch this course, too, for the same reason.

This is the first resource that I have found that taps into the psychological reasons for my clutter. I have tried challenges and listen to podcasts on decluttering and minimalism, but always hit a wall mentally and couldn’t figure out how to pass it.

Great Suggestions and process for sentimental items. I'm looking forward to your 7 step process. I do believe the 7 categories will help me deal with my stuff. Still unsure how to deal with letters than may have family history included in them since there are no more elders in our family...same with antique photo albums with really cool pictures of relatives that i have no idea who they are.

Rachel Papworth provides some very practical approaches to dealing with sentimental clutter that I have been able to apply immediately. She takes into consideration psychological attachments that may interfere with the decluttering process and provides effective advice for overcoming them. Her engaging and encouraging style of teaching helps me feel that I have a personal coach who is cheering me on as I have tackled sentimental clutter in my home. The resources she provides in the course materials are clear and very useful in simplifying the task.

Rachel is extremely helpful and has kept me on course with my decluttering when I could have given up .Every Sunday an e mail pops in my in box and when I read it it makes me think about my week and if there is space in it to declutter even if only a little.Since I first signed up for Green and tidy I have been able to get back to reading and crafting currently crochet and new one needlefelting there is still more stuff leaving my house than is coming in so I have high hopes that eventually my decluttering will get to the stage where its maintenance decluttering rather than the big clear outs . The not sure box is a great tip it's amazing though how often I get rid of what I,ve deemed not sure next time I look in it . Grandchildrens toys which can go outside I,ve put in playhouse in a large accessible bag the indoor bag I store in The playpen which is a permanent feature at present in My sitting room . My biggest challenge has yet to come decluttering my husband and son or trying to get them to take part . So keep those e nails coming Rachel I,ll be in dire need of them I think this course is really helpful for anyone finding sentimental stuff a challenge .

Very helpful so far. I have to get my mother's house ready to let to help pay her care home fees and it seems like she never decluttered in the past 60 years. Very daunting but Rachel is giving me hope that I can do it.
