## Resource

Clutter is not always about being messy or disorganized. Sometimes it is a signal that something deeper is asking for our attention. In this episode, Dr. Phyllis talks about the connection between clutter and avoidance. The overflowing inbox, messy closet, or tasks we keep putting off can often point to emotions we have not slowed down enough to face. Instead of seeing clutter as a failure, she encourages us to see it as a message. Dr. Phyllis shares a simple framework called CLEAR to help move through both physical and emotional clutter. It begins by clarifying what you might be avoiding and listening to the emotions underneath it. From there, she encourages you to engage God and invite Him into the moment for courage and guidance. The next step is to act by taking one small step toward what you have been putting off. Finally, reflect and rejoice by noticing the progress you made. Clutter is not a character flaw. You are not lazy and you are not broken. Often it is simply a signal that something in your life needs care and attention. When we slow down long enough to notice the message, we create space for peace and clarity.
