You can reduce clutter by reducing and releasing limiting beliefs and stuck negative emotions. But what’s next? You can reduce them and be in a neutral state. That’s very good. But many disorders have not even considered new and positive beliefs and feelings. Unfortunately, the mainstream culture did a great job in the past of imposing or promoting negative concepts such as messy being permanently damaged. That is simply not true.

The clutter is driven by negative thought patterns in your subconscious mind. Therefore, adding more negativity will not help and may make it even worse.

Disorders and hoarders are normal, nice and intelligent people.

If you are a messer or hoarder, you may think that no one is like you and that you are very different. You may think that if someone knew what your house looks like, they wouldn’t like it. However, it is estimated that 15% of the population is disorderly and between 2 and 3% are hoarders. This means that you are just like millions of other people.

The messy are usually very nice people. This is a known trait, plus messies are highly intelligent and creative with many interests.

So what do many people think after hearing this information? Often the next comment is derogatory, which triggers negative emotions and thoughts. All these thoughts and feelings can come from the disordered or not disordered. None of these negative thoughts help anyone. When you have a negative and critical thought, who feels the negative feeling? You are. It doesn’t matter who you are, messy or not messy.

How to turn a negative into a positive?

First, notice if you are thinking or feeling anything negative. Then think of a positive thought that can replace it. Then repeat it as many times as you can. So, a negative thought like “I’m such a stupid person because I’m so messy” could become “I’m a nice, thoughtful, smart person” or “I’m a nice, thoughtful, smart person who currently has a messy house.”
