Clutter: it's not just the piles of junk in your closet. It's also the nagging thoughts, endless to-do lists, and calendar full of obligations. It's the fears and worries that cycle through your mind on repeat, and the sticky emotional energy that you pick up from the people around you. It's the sense of panicky suffocation you feel when you contemplate all that you "have" to accomplish in a day, a week, or a lifetime. For almost thirty years, Stephanie Bennett Vogt has been teaching the art of clearing clutter at every level: physical, energetic, mental, and emotional. Her unique "slow-drip" approach to clearing is a welcome antidote to popular binge-cleaning methods that leave you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. With her practical tips and step-by-step guidance, you'll learn how to identify the root causes of clutter, create a personalized clutter-clearing plan, and break the endless cycle of clutter accumulation. Completely revised and updated with even more inspiring stories, helpful exercises, and insightful advice, Your Spacious Self: Clear the Clutter and Discover Who You Are, 10th Anniversary Edition is the ultimate guide to transforming your home and life.

Quizá se han difuminado muchos de los hechos que nos cruzan en la vida para hacer una película que queda en un anecdotario. Pero cuando los recuerdos son nítidos y las experiencias en ellos están todavía latentes, parece importante dejarlas por escrito, cuando menos por un legítimo derecho a la memoria y compartir unas imágenes colectivas que abundan en vivencias más generales y un sentimiento más acogedor que no haberlo repasado nunca No quiere esto decir que el lector se identifique con el relato que se ofrece, pero sí que hay sensaciones y recuerdos que merecen la pena prioritaria en el transcurso personal de la evolución de los recuerdos. Se ofrece, en estas líneas, el testimonio bastante fiel de recuerdos que serán familiares para muchos lectores y, tal vez, la coincidencia de los mismos entornos conocidos o comentados en un periodo aproximado de treinta años (1.959-1.989), que encarna la narrativa en un niño que se va haciendo hombre y es tocado por las circunstancias más comunes de su generación. Los lugares que se citan de Bizkaia, huyendo de anacronismos, tienen la denominación histórica correspondiente y se citan, como botón de muestra Plentzia, Barrika, Berango, Górliz, Getxo, Sondika, Bilbao, Basauri, Galdakao,...y algunas personas no coinciden con los nombres propios, pero se puede decir que la fotografía de la generación es bastante correcta y precisa, a pesar del breve relato. En todo caso, queda el sentimiento íntimo de homenaje a la tierra que te vio nacer, crecer y madurar y que no puede evitar ser su embajador allá donde vayas.
