In this season of being a college woman, the stressors are falling one after another. It is getting incredibly difficult to find time to decrease the pressures of daily life. I find myself filling every second with things I need to get done instead of taking a few moments to clear my head. I am not a person that can go without alone time. I am an introvert that needs these quick self-involved moments. These are a few ways that I take the time to de-clutter and spring clean my thoughts.
- Journaling
-
Journaling is an amazing way to get out unwanted thoughts. A bullet journal is always a fun way to get your creativity flowing, but I have found that it can be stressful to someone who is a perfectionist. So my advice would be to start slow with a normal journal and just write out what is weighing heavy on your mind.
- Make Intentional Quiet Time
-
This is one that I struggle doing myself, but I know when I take time to think and calm down I feel much better about everything. I use the few seconds I get alone thinking and talking things out with myself.
- Let It Go
-
If there is something that you need to tell or someone you need to talk to then get it done. A lot of the time these little things can be a burden and weigh heavy on our shoulders. I find that I struggle with keeping things to myself ad letting these things push me away from people. It is much easier to talk things out than hold everything inside.
