Make two piles: one for donations and another for garbage 4. Ask yourself with each item, do I need to hold on to this or can I let it go? 5.Once the timer goes off, move the garbage pile to the garbage and pack the donations in a box for your trunk. *Repeat as often as you'd like.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Phrases that help in challenging times - My mom was placed on Hospice this month. As you can imagine, it’s an emotional time. As someone who is highly sensitive &amp; empathetic, I realized it was time for a new phrase to help me prioritize what’s most important right now. My husband, the engineer, offered this phrase: “Have the main thing, be the main thing”.</image:title>

      <image:caption>Take-out and a messy house are fine, if it means more time with my mom. The phrase helps me to say ‘no’ to what isn’t necessary, so I can focus on these special visits.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 4 Tips on How to Make the Best Decisions - I am both embarrassed and proud that I finally made a decision to get the new tile in our home. Woohoo! It’s taken me 10 years of thinking &amp; talking about it! As each year passed, I envisioned this is the year I will swap out this white tile that shows every speck of dirt - to have a new lovely tile that would make me smile. Why did it take me 10 years to move forward?</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - 4 Tips on How to Make the Best Decisions - 4 Tips on How to Make the Best Decisions</image:title>
      <image:caption>1. Challenge thoughts around a decision by asking: Do I need more information? If so, where can I get it? How might more time spent deliberating be more or less beneficial? Are there fears worth addressing? 2. Look at “what is in my control &amp; what is not”. Think of what actions you can take to support you in both areas. 3. Go to a trusted friend/person for wise counsel. 4. To avoid getting stuck in analysis paralysis, set a time limit for how much time you spend thinking. Then step away &amp; sleep on it. See how it feels for you the next day.</image:caption>
