Finding Inner Peace Through Decluttering

Written by Tammy Machmali

Do you ever marvel at the satisfaction that comes with decluttering your physical space? That feeling of a fresh start, the lightness that fills the air as you bid farewell to unnecessary baggage. Now, imagine extending that cleansing ritual to your inner self – your thoughts, words, and actions – treating your body and soul as precious entities deserving of care.

Just as you tidy up your living space, it's beneficial to clean your inner home, ensuring it's a sanctuary for positivity, authenticity, and joy. Let’s elicit the benefits of this practice and how it can pave the way for you to actually want to live in an open energetic space that helps to promote a happy free life. 

1. Decluttering Your inner world from Baggage:

Baggage can manifest as limiting beliefs, past traumas, or negative self-talk. By addressing and letting go of these burdens, you create mental space for growth, positivity, and self-love.

Just like a physical home accumulates items over time, our minds gather thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Some are invaluable treasures, while others are unnecessary burdens. Taking a moment to sift through your mental belongings, acknowledging what serves you and releasing what doesn't, is the first step in decluttering your inner world.

2. Honesty and Congruency:

Imagine your thoughts, words, and actions as the furniture in your inner home. Are they arranged harmoniously, creating a space that reflects your true self? Honesty and congruency are the cornerstones of maintaining an authentic inner environment.

Being honest with yourself about your desires, values, and boundaries allows you to build a life that aligns with your authentic self. Congruency, or aligning your actions with your beliefs, ensures that your inner home remains a place of integrity, fostering a sense of inner peace and coherence.

3. Creating Space for Freedom:

Just as physical decluttering creates room for movement and freedom in your living space, cleaning your inner home opens up space for personal growth and emotional freedom. Freeing yourself from the weight of unresolved issues and unspoken truths allows you to move through life with greater ease and authenticity.

4. Watching Your Inner Home:

Much like you maintain and clean your living space regularly, it's essential to watch over your inner home consistently. Pay attention to your thoughts – are they nurturing and positive? Monitor your words – are they aligned with your true self and uplifting to others? Observe your actions – do they reflect the life you want to lead?

By staying vigilant and actively participating in the maintenance of your inner home, you empower yourself to cultivate a mindset that attracts positivity and abundance.

5. Living Life Freely and Happily:

A well-kept inner home sets the stage for a life lived freely and happily. When your thoughts, words, and actions align with your authentic self, you eliminate inner conflicts and pave the way for genuine joy. It's about creating an environment that supports your well-being, allowing you to navigate life with clarity, purpose, and resilience.

Paying attention , just as you invest time in organizing and cleaning your physical space, remember to extend that care to your inner home. By decluttering your baggage, embracing honesty and congruency, creating space for freedom, and actively watching over your inner world, you gift yourself the opportunity to live a life that is both free and fulfilling.


Cleaning inside ourselves is like tidying up our rooms. It's a journey where we find new things about ourselves and feel refreshed. When we clean our minds and hearts, we make room for good things like happiness and growth. Just like keeping our rooms neat helps us feel better, taking care of our inner selves helps us live better lives. So, as you start this journey of inner cleaning, remember to treat your feelings and thoughts kindly. By making our inner selves peaceful, we can have a happy and meaningful life. Let your inner light shine bright, leading you to a future full of happiness and possibilities.

So, open the windows of your soul, let in the light of self-awareness, and embark on the journey of inner cleaning. Your soul will thank you for the fresh, invigorating space you've created within.

Happy cleaning!
