ABOUT A TO ZEN LIFE
Along my journey to let go of 30 years of clutter, I accidentally became a minimalist and it was life-changing.
Before, I was an emotional hoarder with nothing but the clutter from lost loved ones - and $25,000 of debt - to my name. Now I have a beautiful home in Europe, a happy family, live debt-free, and - best of all - wake up to a life that I’m EXCITED to live every day.
My mission is to help you conquer your clutter and simplify YOUR way to a happier and better life. HERE'S OUR STORY: atozenlife.com/about-a-to-zen...

I totally agree on being ruthless with clothing. On The Minimalist’s podcast a caller said that when she has trouble getting rid of clothing, she asks herself, “If I had the opportunity to wear this clothing item, would I reach for something else instead?” I thought it was a good way to determine clothing preferences and sorting out what you like and what you actually wear.

[@OdinsSage]

I have been on a journey to declutter for about 7 years now, which sounds like a long time to people who see my home now but they didn't see my home 7 years ago. Decluttering really is a marathon not a sprint for many people. The key is consistency. Dedicating a week here and there to do big purges is always really satisfying, but it's the daily choices and habits that determine if those big purges will truly be a success or not. These videos are such great little reminders at how important those little, consistent actions are.

[@AtoZenLife]

IMHO, it’s important to share truths like this - thanks for watching! 💪

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

Amen! I have several chronic medical problems and fatigue is a huge issue. I have felt so overwhelmed for a long time but get such encouragement from your videos. What has really helped me, as suggested by a therapist and also by you, is to set a timer, concentrate on one area, and rotate through different areas (I think that's how you do your regular maintenance cleaning but it's how I'm dealing with my initial clearing of clutter). Some days I can go for 15 minute segments, some days 30 minutes, some days not at all, but I also give myself timed rest periods (if I don't set a timer for rest, I don't get back up again LOL). I used to concentrate on one area only, to the point of exhaustion, get frustrated and overwhelmed, and give up. Chipping away throughout my whole living space allows me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Sorry for such a long comment. I didn't even watch your video yet!

[@guiamaemingo1216]

how I wish my Mom has this mindset. Unfortunately, Filipino moms tend to keep old things believing they can be used in the future. Goodness, I couldn't remember the last time our house was spacious 😂

[@karenc1733]

I completely understand, I’ve been decluttering since 2012 and I confess I hate every minute of it. In my ideal world I would keep all my lovely things, but that’s not reality when you’ve downsized from a 7 bed detached house with huge garage to a tiny 2 bed condo on the 9th floor!! I reckon I’ve another year to go with some tough decisions. So hard when you love shopping and buying pretty things for the house, clothes, etc.

[@hellosheillo]

Same here. Decluttering since 2015 yet I feel like I still have a lot of things to let go of

[@StephaninasAmputeeAdventures]

Decluttering has been game-changing for me. I'm a mom of three who ended up in a wheelchair (long story!). Taking care of stuff is harder when you're disabled and in pain, so I concluded I should get rid of as much stuff as possible. Midway through my home overhaul, I discovered your channel. Thanks for keeping me company through many hours of decluttering!

Hugs to you Stephanie🙏🏼 Pain makes everything harder😢 I hope you have adequate pain control when really needed!

[@donzabonza2026]

Hi Stephanie, your an inspiration to me..many thanks for posting. Firstly, I applaud you getting on with decluttering after becoming an amputee. I'm dealing with Fibromyalgia & sleep apnoea it's a trawl to get motivated. Your strength 💪 has motivated me along with this video to start. Baby steps, Rome was built in a day & all that. Peace, good health & love to you. xx ☯️ 💕 🙏🥂

[@StephaninasAmputeeAdventures]

@@donzabonza2026 Thanks, Donza! Honestly, decluttering has been a lifesaver. I'd rather declutter something once instead of pick it up a thousand times. When I don't feel well and am in pain, I need my home to be easier and more relaxing. I'm sorry you're also dealing with chronic pain. Fibromyalgia and sleep apnea are both so hard. I hope you're hanging in there!

[@StephaninasAmputeeAdventures]

God be with you @StephaninasAmput I can't begin to imagine how you do it, being in a chair + 3 children! I've got so many things wrong with me & also have chronic pain I can barely do anything so I don't get too far at all then everything in my body feels like dishrags getting wrung out, so I'm no good goes out on me & I can't bear the pain... years back I could push myself through the pain but these past 6 yrs it's too excruciating. It just makes me so damn mad!!! I feel like a lazy lump on a log and think that that's what a lot of other people think of me, since we can't see pain on a person. But my heart surely goes out to you. take care now I hope your kiddos help cuz mine never did 🧶🐈🐾🐾🐅🦴🐕🐾🐾🐢

[@anshitasharma9426]

Notes for me - 1. Keep a trash bag handy and keep putting things in it without worrying about organising/cleaning. 2. Create a drop zone. 3. Donate what’s not needed. 4. Set a timer 5. Re homing basket to put things at their place later. 6. Listen to KZbin / podcasts. 7. Before and after pictures.

Thank you for this! I filled and tossed 2 trash bags today, and put a small dent in it, then crawled back into my *dent* I have made in my bed which is my comfort zone. My reaction to dumping the stuff tells me I have a little problem I wasn't aware of, but the extra space is lovely tbh. I am 51 and think life has manifested into a "stuff" thing, so since 2 bags "exhausted" me, will tackle more later but I feel like this is a start! Thank you for helping a total stranger.

[@victor9501]

How true about stopping the inflow of clutter! I often used to go out & buy things or buy things online I didn't really need, which not only was a waste of money, but also was continuously adding to the clutter! I am now much more careful about casual shopping. Same with thrift stores, there's such a temptation to pick up a couple more items after dropping off some clutter...

[@arctica7170]

This is honestly the only channel I have ever watched that makes decluttering and its process relatable. Every other channel I have seen has this distance to them, as if the content creator is a somewhat different 'breed' from other people, where they now have accomplished 'their everything' and now it's your turn. I can't seem to connect to that. Also, the vibe in your videos is very pleasant, and I look forward to new videos. You're doing really good.

A trick I have for closets is I put my hangers backward at the beginning of the year and when I wear something I put it back the right way. After a year has gone by all the clothes that are still on the hangers that were backwards are donated.

[@Back_To_Basics]

I discovered your chanel recently and watched one video a day to motivate me to declutter. I then put on a 10min timer on my iPhone and played my favourite songs on Spotify. When the ten minutes are up, the music stopped playing and I’m done with my decluttering for the day. It started as a 30 day challenge, but felt more like a habit now..😊

[@AtoZenLife]

That’s a fantastic way to develop good habits 👏

[@laurettegliddon5635]

Today is day 3 of full day of decluttering, cleaning and organising the house and I am feeling SO good! Thank you for giving me the motivation to start. It’s not been the easiest couple months as my husband lost his job and my work is seasonal and the winter has been long. But I’m feeling so much better now that the house is (almost) done. I’m already thinking about going through everything again and decluttering again 😂

[@jendavis9185]

My psychiatrist told me the reason of my accumulation of stuff (CLOSE TO HOARDING) was because of my losses I had in my life. I was holding on to stuff because I could control that. I had made the thought of getting rid of stuff (I didn’t need) as another loss. I am STILL in the process of decluttering. I have given away about 10 garbage bags (the BIG yard bags) of clothes and shoes. Now, I am working on the useless things I have… like from boyfriends I didn’t love, or little things (like tickets from Universal Studios, T-shirt’s with holes from when I used to live with my dad (daddy didn’t buy this tshirt though), etc etc. It is harder for me than it should be. I have to get in the right mental space and just do it

[@JE-ji3cw]

Ooh your reasons resonate with me too! Good luck!

[@ifetayodavidson-cade5613]

Thank you for sharing your story. I am decluuttering as part of the grieving process, which goes beyond getting rid of stuff to have a nicer looking home.

[@kellymartin5475]

I get how good it feels to get rid of things. For me I think it’s wasteful to get rid of things (partially used tubes of things, like sunscreen) that are still useful. I keep them but try to use them up right away. This avoids adding more to trash over time and saves money. I push myself to be a sustainable declutterer.

[@susanreed8640]

I get that but she said her kids have eczema and the old stuff they tried, caused issues. As someone who has walked that walk, it was a relief to toss things I hoped would work but caused reaction. They were painful reminders of a worse time before finding a sustainable solution forward.

[@katarinaramos97]

I agree with both POV, I just think she could have given those products to someone else. They bothered her kids eczema skin but doesn’t mean someone else could get use of it.

[@abernard8699]

Fully agree. It's amazing all things that are wasted. However, it takes so much more time than throwing them away..... regards from France

[@ludmialachawiec3869]

I utilise old or not good for my skin creams to polish my leather shoes/bag. :)

[@Rudelherz]

Love that. Manage your stuff and don't get rid of it. Of course it is easy to get a garbage bag and get going ...our superficial society likes it easy. We think we love ourselves by mistreating our things instead of taking care of them. We throw away our friends when we don't feel like they serve ist anymore....Partners are next. And then we wonder why our children go no contact when it is us who told them to do so by how we live. I have no clue how these hardcore minimalists purge and purge and still have things to purge...they must be constantly bringing things in otherwise there can not be sacks and sacks of garbage going on. It is like patients suffering from bulimia explaining to me how good they feel after they throw up....only to make plans on how to binge again soon...🙈 This reminds of them. We call it the Devil's Circle in German. All the comments of how happy it makes to throw away stuff.....what a weird world. Our grandparents would be disgusted, thinking how hard they worked for what we through away everyday. The arrogance and waiting for applause of how empty everything looks. Two hours later borrowing somthing from the neighbours (Like me 😂) because they are so happy they don't need to take care of it anymore....the irony. In it's extreme form it is actually a very selfish, irresponsible and childish way of living. We already produce so much garbage. Don't make more because it makes you feel good. There are better hobbies 😝 Glad you wrote this, and that there are still ppl like this. Hoarding and extreme constant decluttering are two extremes that seem to have a very unhealthy root...

[@kristinakalas8100]

It's so true! I go to the thrift store to drop off stuff & go in to see what they have. I always end up with 1-2 items that I take back home. I never really thought about it!

[@MG-bq1uk]

Thank you so much for posting. I needed this. I am a former caregiver of my elderly parents who recently passed. Both had debilitating illnesses at the same time which was overwhelming for me but I am very grateful I was able to be there 24 hours everyday to care for them at the same time through the grace of God at their home (which I inherited). To deal with the stress (and grief) as they were in their final days and hours during hospice at home, I started decluttering their things (since I couldn't go easily anywhere during this critical time) but stopped decluttering after they passed. I was too burned out physically, emotionally and mentally to do anything, only the bare minimum of daily responsibilities (sometimes not even that). It was 5 years of intensive caregiving. I'm now ready to start and have but needed strategies to declutter faster. You're video has great tips and will help me a great deal. Especially now that I have 8 rescued dogs that I care for and have plenty of space inside and outside to live comfortably with me. Between work (remote at home) and caring for them, my time can be limited. Thanks for the inspiration and reminder that at least 15 minutes a day... It can be done. I will gladly give up stuff but not my dogs who bring me so much joy and keep me active walking each of them. They deserve a loving home and happy/healthy life with me after being abused, neglected and dumped on the streets (emancipated) without mercy by their previous owners. One of them was able to wag her tail again and trust me after three years of rehabilitation. Thanks again!

I swear nothing beats the point you mentioned about sustainable recycling and items piling up with regards to mental health. This is something I wish I had known four years ago.

I’m helping my parents declutter and downsize from their house into a small apartment. They have never decluttered to the level they needed to this time and they had so many excess possessions! It has taken me four solid weeks to help them pack everything up and get rid of as much as I possibly could. The moving truck is coming tomorrow and I know they will need to purge at least another 30-40% of what they have kept in order to fit comfortably into this apartment. Hopefully they will be settled in by Christmas 🤞🏻

[@beep-beepwatermelon4203]

Great video! I met a woman who was probably 70 at the time, and she told me how to deal with negativity from people. She said to take a thought and wrap it up on a nice little wrapping paper with a bow and then CHUCK IT IN THE FUCK IT BUCKET! That always stuck with me. In my home I have a large blue fuck it bucket for things I want to get rid of. Some stuff won’t fit in it but most things will fit into my bucket easily.

Wow, I love that quote from Peter Walsh. Thanks for this video! ❤️

[@donaldsneider2560]

Loved your tips. Especially set a timer and get done what your u can

[@MrsJax304]

I'm so glad you are back

[@heidibonjour]

Thank you for doing "sustainable decluttering" !!!!!!

[@debbief1271]

Good to see you back. A great video as always

[@Joyfulmamaof2]

Thanks for these tips! I have donated 6 trash bags full of stuff to the thrift store with more going out soon! These tips will help with the last of the stuff! Being ruthless has been my mindset this time around! A few years ago I decluttered so much stuff and lived more minimalist but we moved from Kansas back to Georgia and I have gotten into the bad habit of retail therapy to help with depression(Thankfully I decided to go on some medicine which is helping)and so we have way to much stuff now!

[@Joyfulmamaof2]

Also I love your channel!

[@ravstephs7662]

“You deserve a life full of yeses!” Love that!

[@joypura8867]

That one trap i fall into while decluttering is when i pass by my kitchen and see dishes on the sink i have this tendency to wash the dishes and get distracted on my decluttering around the house. Thanks! Thanks for the wise tips! Focus😅❤

The box idea for rehoming stuff👌🏽✅

[@chloeruegg2352]

Marissa! It’s so wonderful to see you back doing videos. Loved this one as much as all your others. I’m always excited to see how you’re able to top your last video and inspire me yet again. 😊 Btw, your house looks great. The kitchen turned out lovely.

[@AtoZenLife]

Thanks so much!

[@smartanajones4u]

I thought this was another click bait type video, but she actually delivered on the promise of the title. Great video!

[@thelionandthebee1933]

Thank you so much for your great ideas. 👍 I will try them all. My present life is full of "the clutter of the unnecessary" 😒 All these beautiful piles have not brought happiness, only added stress. I will now not sell the items but just bless others with all this stuff. My peacefulness is more important than making extra money, that I may end up spending at great second-hand stores. Re-give, refresh and renew my calm. Blessings to you for your awesome encouragement 🙏 ❤️ 🙌

[@JudelovesRiver12]

Glad to see you’re back on KZbin Marissa! I’ve been needing your guidance 😅

[@AtoZenLife]

You got this 😎

[@svetlanatipsmark8019]

Hello! I really appreciate the quotations and different laws that you site here. In my opinion, it gives the video more credibility and a " researched" feeling. Thank you for your content

[@canceriangal4443]

Love this video!! It’s light and to the point which I love!!

[@lmack6596]

I love taking before and after pics!

[@Sera_Vaz]

[@enchantinglysimple]

Its so nice to have you back! I so look forward to your weekly video :)

[@AtoZenLife]

Thanks Sarah 🤗

[@enchantinglysimple]

@@AtoZenLife Your Welcome 🤗

[@GForce94]

Great reminders! On a side note, I don’t know how much you like rugs or blankets, but in the large spaces you have, they can make a huge difference in reducing the echo (without creating clutter). ☺️

[@kscriv4636]

Thanks for remotivating me. I’m so used to decluttering being a part of my life now that I really question things before I buy them now because I don’t want to have to declutter them again soon. Things need to last a long time for me to want to buy them. Your point about just taking a peek though, that really is my downfall, I can’t resist seeing if I can find something but I must resist the urge more. The prices in charity shops are now almost the same as buying new so that has helped though as it stops me getting loads.

[@keniacarvajal4920]

firehouse and pool analogy YEEESS! I love how your life noises and hazards are in your videos, makes it relatable.

[@AtoZenLife]

Funnily enough, right after this video the bathroom light shorted and sparked due to shoddy electrical work - husband had to fix it ASAP so we didn’t get burned to crisps. 🙃😭 Thanks so much for watching!

[@romee94]

This was sooo impactful!!! Thank you 🙏🏽

Thank you! Great advice

Hello from Chicago!!!!🎉🎉🎉 I don’t use the re-home box because I actually will leave the things that need to go somewhere else in there for ever 😂 Love your videos, thank you for sharing 👍

[@motorcyclehair]

This IS SUCH GOOD ADVICE. Love you & your channel is always my go-to. Dishes, chores etc…..is scope creep & it DOES zap energy.

"Just to peek around".... classic! Leave my purse in the car, or the trunk, or leave it at home and ONLY bring my driver's license!! That makes me chuckle cuz it's soooooo true!! "Just a peek", you stated that perfectly.

[@DontDooTooMuch]

I love the before and after pics!
