Clearing the Path: How Decluttering Supports Addiction Recovery

So we come back to how do I feel when I'm in this space?Maybe I need to tweak a couple of things, because I mean it can come down to even things like clothing that one typically would wear whenever, maybe going to parties or clubs...
What if the clutter in your life is more than just a mess? In this episode of 'Atheists in Recovery', Dr. Adina Silvestri chats with Michael, the voice behind the 'Let’s Purify' podcast, to explore how tidying up can be a powerful tool in addiction recovery. Michael's journey into decluttering started on a farm, and she brings that grounded, holistic approach to her work today.
She shares how asking simple questions like 'Does this item bring me joy?' can help you decide what stays and what goes. But it’s not just about tossing things out—Michael dives into how decluttering can be a mindful practice that helps you become more aware of your surroundings and feelings. This episode is packed with practical tips, like starting with a plan and setting expectations for your first decluttering session.
Michael even introduces a 'mindful walk-through' exercise to help you connect deeply with your space. Decluttering isn't just about creating a neat home; it's about creating an environment that supports your recovery journey. Michael explains that getting rid of physical clutter can also help clear mental and emotional clutter, making space for better decision-making and confidence.
If you're looking for a fresh way to support your recovery, this episode offers a unique perspective on how cleaning up can clean out more than just your closet.
