There are many signs associated with mirrors. The world through the looking glass has always interested people and fascinated them with its obscurity. We are afraid of cracked and broken mirrors, which are believed to bring bad luck. We treat new mirrors with trepidation, because they are supposed to bring good luck and fortune to our family.

After that, take out the mirror and leave it near the house, maybe it will be useful to someone. You have nothing to fear anymore, since your energy has been removed from the surface.

6. If you doubt whether you can throw away your old mirror, try burying it in the ground. To do this, you need to find a place where few people go. Dig a deep hole and bury the item there. By the way, the same should be done if the mirror is accidentally broken. It is believed that this will ward off bad luck.

Why you need to periodically throw away old things

According to Feng Shui, old things cluttering a house interfere with the free circulation of qi energy, and as a result, energy blocks are created both in the house itself and in its occupants. This is why poor health, failures, and dissatisfaction with oneself and one’s life appear. In such a house you don’t want to do anything, apathy and laziness manifest themselves, it’s even difficult to breathe in it, and things seem to put pressure on the brain, provoking the appearance of negative thoughts.

Ideally, chi energy should look into every corner of the house, filling it and the people living in it with new vitality, giving happiness, health, peace of mind, and financial well-being. When all the corners are occupied by some kind of rubbish or unnecessary things, then the energy does not even reach these places. One has only to take and throw away some of the old things, and the situation will begin to change.

How to get rid of old things: where to start

As a rule, throwing out old things starts with the closets, but no one bothers you to start, for example, with “cleaning out” the loggia, the pantry. Better yet, first get rid of unnecessary large items, for example, a worn out soft sofa or a crumbling chest of drawers, which no one will repair. In addition, old upholstered furniture can harbor bedbugs and other insects that are dangerous to humans. So let's get started...

Balconies and loggias

On the balcony, find all the trash that was put away in case it “suddenly comes in handy”, but for six months, a year or more you haven’t even touched it. Look what's hidden in boxes, old suitcases and - there's probably something to throw away, if not everything! By the way, if you don’t need the suitcase either, then you can safely throw it away, the only exceptions being those.

What other unnecessary items can be found on the balcony? Look for junk in tool boxes; as a rule, there may be some parts stored there that you planned to “return” to their place, to fix something, but never did, especially if that thing, the part from which is stored.

In general, it is best to use a balcony or loggia not for unnecessary rubbish, but as a place to relax, or to arrange a greenhouse there.

Pantry

This is another place that can simply be filled with junk. If you decide to throw away old things, then you need to start looking for them in the pantry.

Feel free to throw away any broken equipment stored in the pantry, for example, an old one or one that you will no longer repair, but kept in case “what if I decide to do it.”

If food is stored in a pantry or closet, they need to be checked for freshness: old canned food can be safely thrown away; you also need to check bulk products and make sure that there are no “living creatures” in them; There is no room for rotten vegetables either.

Take away everything you don’t use, repair shelves, cabinets, doors if they are broken somewhere, glue up the torn wallpaper, refresh the walls and doors with new paint. The pantry should be ventilated after such cleaning.

Cabinets and drawers

There is probably nothing harder than throwing away clothes and shoes, especially if they suit you very well, still like them or remind you of some event. Clothes and shoes, like no other things, “remember” your energy, so before throwing old things out of the closets, wash and dry them, wipe your shoes with a damp cloth. It is even recommended to burn things that are no longer suitable for anything. Everything old that has accumulated on things, especially bad ones, should not return to you or pass on to others. Therefore, either wash it away or destroy it!

You've probably already heard that you need to throw away things that haven't been worn for six months, but here everything is individual, depending on the situation or at your discretion. You can throw away everything old in one fell swoop, but it happens that your hand does not rise, then the solution will be to learn to throw away old things one by one, gradually, day after day...

In addition to cabinets, also check chests of drawers, ottomans, sofas, etc. What's stored in the built-in storage drawers in your bed? If these are bedding, then everything is fine, but if there are “trunks” with old things, throw them away mercilessly!

There are a lot of small drawers in furniture sets for the hallway, in children's walls and even in. They need to be checked for any unnecessary little things: checks, receipts, tear-off sheets of notes, old magazines and newspapers, broken pencils or written-off pens, etc. Do you still feel bad about throwing away all these old things? Believe me, your life will be better without them!

Kitchen

Another place to accumulate unnecessary things in an apartment or house is the kitchen. Here's how to declutter your kitchen:

• First of all, you need to find all the chipped dishes, plates or cups with cracks, teapots and sugar bowls with broken handles - we shamelessly throw all this in the trash, without regret.
• Old, unnecessary and ugly utensils that you haven’t used for a long time are also waiting to be thrown away.
• Next, you need to throw away worn-out kitchen textiles - towels, an apron, replacing it all with new and clean ones.
• Go through the cabinets where bulk products and cereals are stored, clean everything and put things in order.
• Remove anything that doesn't belong in your kitchen cabinets.
• Check cutlery and all kinds of utensils. Feel free to throw away all those that have lost their appearance, lost their functionality, are broken or simply require replacement.

Also, carry out a regular cleaning and throw away unnecessary items each time so that it is as spacious, fresh and clean as possible.

What things should not be thrown away

• antiques that cost a lot of money;
• items in good condition that can be sold;
• things from which you can make crafts, interior decor (provided that you are really doing this and not just dreaming of starting);
• things that will be useful at the dacha (no fanaticism here, so that EVERYTHING doesn’t come in handy by accident!);
• children's things and toys that can be passed on to someone “by inheritance”.

Many people really need to learn how to throw away old things without hesitation and without feeling sorry. Sometimes it is very difficult, but the result is worth it! When we get rid of the old, something new will certainly come into our lives, and it will definitely be clean and positive. Good luck decluttering!

We continue to put things in order together with the author of the book “Happy at Home.” Last time we discussed and force ourselves to throw away unnecessary things. Today we present a list of things that are usually the first to be thrown away.

When I know exactly where to find what I need and can easily put a letter in a folder and a towel on a shelf, I am overcome with a pleasant (even illusory) feeling of complete control over my life. Getting rid of clutter makes life easier. When a friend says, “I cleaned out our closets and I feel like I've lost five pounds,” I know exactly how she feels.

Trash formula

In progress cleaning Using the “shelf by shelf” method, I was able to derive a formula for the appearance of junk in the house. It became easy for me to identify and eliminate problematic items. Here's a rough list of what should leave your home first.

• “Cute” kitchen utensils that don’t work well.
• Broken things. Well, why can’t we admit that something is broken - a burnt toaster, a cracked vase, three holey umbrellas, etc.?
• Things that seem potentially useful but are not used - an oversized water container or a complicated corkscrew. Or duplicates - well, how many glass jars do we need?
• Things you want to “save”. Well, why do you need a nice shower gel if you never use it? Why “save” the bright tin trays you inherited from your grandmother? A friend once gloomily admitted to me: “I saved expensive truffle oil for so long that it went bad.” Once you spend your money, use what you bought and then throw it away.
• Items that should have been used but were not used due to reluctance or laziness. A few years ago I bought a digital voice recorder because I was going to do an interview. But something didn’t work out, and the recorder was of no use. And the expensive exercise equipment purchased by my friends, which are gathering dust, taking up space?..
• Things that should have been thrown away a long time ago. Luckily, there was no room in our apartment to store such things: no attic, no closet, no utility room - just a part of the basement where we stored Christmas tree decorations, spare filters for the air conditioner and a few high chairs. We didn't even have a garage, which many people use as home storage. According to the Department of Energy, 25% of Americans with two-car garages don't park their cars there at all.
• Items that ended up in the house according to “grandmother’s right.” Grandmothers always have their own rules about what our children Eliza and Elinor need. My mother-in-law never buys anything new for herself, but she gives the girls solar-powered prisms, sets of miniature colored pencils and all that. All these things are funny, but gradually the apartment becomes littered with them.
• Things we never used. It's time to get rid of the rice cooker I gave my husband for his birthday. He loves to cook, but he continues to cook rice in an old saucepan.

Throw it away or organize it?

Saving is expensive in every way. Possessions take up time, space and energy. And someday you will have to decide how to get rid of this property.

I told a friend about my shelf-by-shelf approach.

“I know this feeling,” she nodded. — My apartment is filled with garbage. (True. I know for a fact that she has actual warehouses in three states: in the town where she grew up, where her grandmother lived, and another one 40 minutes away from her apartment.)

“I need to figure all this out too,” my friend added.

- No, just don’t figure it out! - I exclaimed. - Don't think about organizing this junk!

And then I stopped. I didn't want to seem rude to my friend.

- What are you talking about? - she was surprised. - You saw my apartment. I definitely need to organize everything properly.

“Well,” I said carefully, “try to get rid of everything unnecessary first.” And then you won't have to organize.

- Like this? - my friend asked suspiciously.

— Unnecessary papers can be thrown away rather than put in folders. Donate the clothes you never wear to a charity and you won't have to find room for them in your closet!

“No, I use almost everything,” my friend objected. “I won’t have to throw away much.” I just need to buy a few things to better organize everything.

I couldn't find anything to say. I've noticed that the people who have the biggest clutter problems tend to buy clever hangers, furniture with convenient drawers, and colorful plastic boxes. Organizing your belongings can be very useful - as long as it organizes what you need and doesn't add to the accumulation of clutter.

As I sorted shelf after shelf, I mentally answered a lot of questions. Do we use these things? Do we love them? And I felt a big difference between what we don’t use and what is useless. Eliza doesn't use her animal rubber stamps anymore, and I don't wear my mom's brightly colored vintage hats. We have a lot of things that are dear to us that we don’t use. I wanted my home to be filled with things that had symbolic and sentimental meaning, not just practical ones. Unlike a broken pancake maker, they always have a place in my house.

I also part with things quite easily; if something has not been touched for a long time, then you can part with it without any problems, which means it is not needed.

Once every six months I get rid of things, etc. (I usually take them to trash cans in bags where the size of shoes/clothes is written) and they quickly take them away. Well, if there are good things, then you can give them through advertisements for juice or 100 rubles (if there are a lot of things) too people take it. But damn, it’s such a pity to part with every little thing)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) ) One thing I noticed --- when I unload it becomes easier to breathe NOOOOO immediately in my head --- well, now you can buy something else, the place is free!)))))))))))))) And one more thing. .......manic spontaneous purchases are all the fucking world of consumption...We are forced to throw away things (although they will probably last us a long time) and buy new and new ones.....Be vigilant, comrades!!! It's difficult but... hang in there!

I myself easily part with things that I think are unnecessary, but my husband does not. In his opinion, everything will be useful. We agreed that I put unnecessary items in a box and on the balcony for six months; if during this period they are still not in demand, then we get rid of them.

My friend says that if she doesn’t use something for a year, then it’s time to throw it away)

oh, don’t feed me bread, let me throw away all sorts of old stuff)) however, sometimes after that, exactly what was lying around idle all the time turns out to be a very necessary thing)))))

From time to time I go through all my things and papers. Almost every time I throw something away. I don't like hoarding junk.

A SCHOOL WITHOUT MATH Livanov proposed taking the basic Unified State Exam in mathematics after the tenth grade. Behind this “innocent” proposal (see [link-1]) there is an indirect recognition of the failure of the experiment with dividing the Unified State Examination in mathematics into two levels. Teachers of “ordinary” schools, focusing on preparing graduates for the basic Unified State Examination, “forgot” about the profile exam, which led to a collapse in its average scores (see [link-2]). It seems that the Ministry of Education is concerned about the release of teachers...

I agree that school should be separated from passing the Unified State Exam. Schools should teach, not coach. Examinations in general should become voluntary and independent.

And this idea seems extremely reasonable to me. It is quite possible to complete a school mathematics course in 10 years, and in the 11th grade you can devote more time to specialized subjects. Again, for those who did not cope with the basic exam, it is possible to organize separate groups in the 11th grade, where instead of higher mathematics they will study repetition, and give children the opportunity to retake the exam in a year.

April 20 - Moon phase: First quarter (young Moon), from 6:26 3 lunar day It is highly undesirable to make any purchases on the third lunar day. But if you still want to do this, then repeatedly check the quality of the purchased product so that there are no problems later. The exception to today's rule is the purchase of items such as weapons, cutlery, gardening tools, etc., that is, those that involve "aggressive" use. Please also note that if...

January 24 - Moon phase: First quarter (young Moon), from 10:10 5th lunar day Today you can buy anything - from small items to household appliances, from children's toys to apartments.

Pregnancy is one of the most amazing moments in the life of every woman. Literally everything changes - habits, preferences, states and moods, relationships and the body. Not so long ago, news of pregnancy had a largely negative aftertaste for women. Many gave up on themselves, completely burying their development in diapers and household chores. Thoughts about myself, my appearance and career were reprehensible and vulgar. However, times have changed and pregnancy is by no means a reason to give up...

1. There is a law of abundance - in order for the new to come, you need to get rid of the old. Otherwise, for the new, the Universe (God, as you wish) does not see a place where to “send” it to you. 2. In China there is a saying “The old will not go away, the new will not come.” 3. According to Feng Shui, old things (junk, garbage) do not allow the life-giving energy Qi to flow freely, and therefore there can be no talk of any changes in life or new things. 4. Another conclusion: when we put on an old thing, or spray ourselves with perfume that we haven’t used for a long time, or...

I support this activity (throwing out trash) with both hands! I rarely have anything late, I throw away everything unnecessary, old, etc. without regret. Here's Plyushkin's husband! (((you need to rummage through him, clear a couple of shelves and throw out at least something! The main thing is that he doesn't need this something later!;)

I already sorted out my things and took away five bags.
I want to throw out the old pots. the rest will go away in December when we continue renovations.

I want to tell you about a vacuum cleaner from Aliexpress.. It arrived in exactly a month, taking into account the New Year's blockage. It was well packaged and was not damaged during shipment. Weight with box 5 kg. It absorbs even the smallest dust particles very well. The kit includes additional brushes, a replaceable HEPA filter, a charger, a remote control and a virtual wall.

1. Hopelessly damaged items. Shirts with stubborn stains, stretched out T-shirts and moth-eaten sweaters have no place in your closet. Why store something that you are unlikely to wear again?

2. Clothes that don't fit. The reason, I think, is clear.

3. Old shoes. If she can be brought into divine form, do it. Vapors that cannot be restored are sent to the trash.

4. Worn underwear. When your bra can no longer support your breasts properly, it's time to replace it with a new one. It’s awkward to talk about torn panties - they’re thrown in the trash, that’s all.

5. Stockings and tights with ties or holes. Yes, yes, they can also be sewn up and worn under jeans or trousers. Either sew it up, or get rid of obviously useless things.

6. Holey socks. This is the same as in the previous paragraph: it’s up to you to sew it up or throw it away, as long as the socks don’t continue to lie idle.

7. Jewelry that has lost its former appearance. With jewelry, everything is clear: a broken lock, a torn chain or a fallen rhinestone are very good reasons to throw away a bracelet or necklace. You shouldn’t throw jewelry away; it’s better to have it repaired.

8. Old party dresses. Do you think there is a high chance that you will one day wear the outfit you wore to your high school prom? If the dress is in good condition, try selling it. If not, well, even with such things you need to be able to say goodbye.

9. Worn bags. And wallets too. Agree, the chance that you will one day decide to go out with a worn-out bag is zero.

10. Old swimsuits and swimming trunks. Say goodbye without regret to all stretched and faded copies.

11. Spare buttons from clothes you no longer wear. After all, what do you do with a set of completely different buttons?

Cosmetics and personal care

12. Old cosmetics. Firstly, since you haven't used it yet, it's unlikely that you'll ever need this eye shadow, lip gloss or foundation. Secondly, it has an expiration date. When it has come to an end, it’s time to say goodbye to the product.

13. Dried nail polish. Even if you dilute it with a special liquid, it still cannot be compared with fresh. Throw it away without hassle.

14. Eau de toilette samples. Why save them if you don't like the scent?

15. Samples of cosmetic products. Either use it or throw it away, there is no third option.

16. Old toiletries. A bald toothbrush and a cracked soap dish are not something that should be carefully stored for many years.

17. Stretched hair ties. Here is good news for connoisseurs of rubber bands and telephone wires: bathe the rubber bands in boiling water, they will be as good as new.

18. Invisibility pins. Shake out the drawer with cosmetics or the box where you store jewelry, you will probably find several hairpins there. Since you don’t use them, there’s no point in storing them.

19. Almost out of cosmetics and household chemicals. There is a little bit of product left at the bottom, it seems like it’s time to throw it away, but the toad is choking. Give the toad a worthy rebuff and throw almost empty bottles and jars into the trash.

Food and kitchen supplies

20. Spoiled food. Will you eat them? No one will, so feel free to throw the old-timers of your refrigerator in the trash.

21. Old spices and seasonings. Like other products, they have . When it comes to an end, it's time for the spices to leave your kitchen cabinet.

22. Unnecessary mugs. Throw away the ones with cracks and chips, and take the intact ones that you don’t use for some reason to work. They will definitely come in handy there.

23. Old sponges for washing dishes. By the way, they should be changed regularly, and this should be done before the sponge begins to smell.

24. Pots and pans with scratched non-stick coatings. What's the point of this coating when all that's left of it is its name?

25. Empty jars and jars. Why keep them at all is unclear. Apparently, in the hope that someday all this will be useful. Let's be honest, has it been useful at least once? If not, goodbye jars!

26. Kitchen utensils you don't use. Give the brand new one to your friends, throw away the used one.

27. Food containers you don't use. And at the same time, those that have lost their former appearance - the lid is cracked, for example.

28. Assorted dishes. Once upon a time there lived a tea couple, then the cup broke, but the saucer survived - or vice versa. It doesn’t seem to be a big deal, but using such utensils is not very pleasant. So it's time to send her to rest.

29. Broken kitchen utensils. And again: you can use them, but not very pleasantly. So why keep it?

Housing

30. Old towels with stains or holes. These are downright unpleasant to wipe yourself with, so don't hesitate to throw them away.

31. Worn-out bed linen. If it’s just faded, that’s all right, but torn sheets and duvet covers are heading straight to the landfill.

32. Shabby rugs from the bathroom and hallway. Life was not easy for them anyway, why prolong the suffering?

33. Old pillows. Still, they are no longer as plump and soft as before.

34. Extra hangers. Leave enough to hang your clothes and the rest in the trash.

35. Unnecessary flower vases. Donate, sell or get rid of them in any other way.

36. Trinkets. A figurine of a pig, given to you on the occasion of the coming of the year of this animal, is appropriate once every 12 years. Release the pig free, don't torture it. Souvenirs from her travels and refrigerator magnets will make her a great companion.

37. New Year's decorations that don't make you happy. A garland where several light bulbs are not lit, a glass ball that, instead of a factory fastening, is held on by a cleverly bent wire - do not turn the tree into an exhibition of junk.

38. Broken electronics and household appliances. If you still haven't fixed it, it means you don't really need it.

39. Spare parts for furniture. Collect all those little bits and pieces that seem to multiply by division and throw them straight in the trash.

Waste paper

40. Old checks and bills. Since the warranty period has expired, it means there is no point in saving the receipt. But receipts for payment of utility services should be kept at a minimum.

41. School and university textbooks. It's unlikely you'll need them. Give them to the library, so the books will be at least of some use. And you can throw away your notes with a clear conscience.

42. Postcards and wedding invitations. If they are dear to you as a memory, leave them, but there is no point in keeping a stack of cards with routine wishes of happiness and health.

43. Newspapers and magazines. Including those that you wrote out back in school for foreign language lessons. You never know, maybe you still keep them.

44. Discount cards for stores you don't go to. It’s logical: if you don’t go, then you don’t use cards.

45. Discount coupons that have expired. They won't give you a discount anyway.

46. ​​Junk from the mailbox. Catalogs of amazing products, flyers with discounts from the nearest store and similar printed materials should be stored where they belong: in the trash can.

47. Instructions for assembling furniture. It is unlikely that you regularly disassemble and reassemble a closet or chest of drawers.

48. Guides. Why save paper brochures when you can use electronic versions of guides?

49. Children's drawings. Whether it's your creations or your children's drawings, it's hard to part with something like that. Pull yourself together and keep only the ones you like best.

50. Duplicate photos. In case you don't trust cloud storage and prefer to store printed pictures in photo albums. But with clouds you shouldn’t do this, they are much more convenient.

51. Old diaries. Since they are lying around like a dead weight, throw them out already - and that’s the end of it.

Various little things

52. Boxes from household appliances. The same ones that thrifty citizens keep on their cupboards. When the warranty period ends, the boxes should be thrown into the trash.

53. Expired medications. It’s unlikely that any comments are needed here.

54. Old mobile phones. Is your nostalgia for bygone times so strong that you still keep them, which are unlikely to ever be turned on?

55. Unnecessary smartphone accessories. Sooner or later you will have to get rid of them anyway, so why put it off until later?

56. Dried flowers. Skip the sentimentality and throw away those dust collectors.

57. Old stationery. Sticky notes, dried markers and pens, folders for papers, and so on.

58. The wires are from unknown origin. Everything is simple here: if you know exactly why this cable is needed, and at least sometimes use it for its intended purpose, let it live. The rest should disappear from your home.

59. Old CDs and DVDs. Music that you no longer listen to, computer programs that you are unlikely to ever use, movies that you have watched more than once... Why do you need all this?

60. Souvenirs from promotions. Let’s say you were given a T-shirt with the logo of a milk producer emblazoned across the chest. Will you wear it? No, really?

61. Gifts you don't use. Or the ones you just don't like. Give them to people who will appreciate the gifts.

62. Used batteries. Hand them over for recycling; there is probably a collection point for batteries and accumulators in your city.

63. Animal toys. Of course, those to which your pet is indifferent. It is unlikely that he will ever change his mind and decide that a mouse on wheels or a squeaking rubber chicken is the dream of his whole life.

64. Board games that lack details. You won't really be able to play them.

65. Wrinkled bows and ribbons for gift wrapping. Since they have lost their former appearance, there is no point in decorating a gift with them.

66. Small coins. However, you don’t have to throw them away, but put them in a piggy bank. If you collect a decent amount, you can exchange it at the bank.

Order in the house means order in the head, so make it a rule to do such cleaning from time to time. By the way, what would you add to this list?

1. Get rid of everything that pulls you back to the past.

2. Things that are not worn or used in everyday life die. Therefore, they carry information about death.

3. If your home is in disarray when you leave it, you tend to carry with you into the outside world the idea that your feelings or your life are in equal disarray. All this is in your subconscious, and although you seem to behave completely independently of the situation at home, there is bound to be some aspect in your appearance, body language or demeanor that gives away the actual state of things. Other people will accept these “messages; (also mostly unconsciously) and react accordingly to your behavior, so harmony in the home leads to more harmonious and hasty relationships with the outside world.

4. Nothing new and valuable will come into our lives until there is free space in it.
You cannot create something new without completely getting rid of everything old.

5. There is only one criterion for selecting unnecessary items. If something is not useful within a year or two, it will never be needed again.

6. There is tremendous healing power in clearing your home of unnecessary things. By clearing on the external level, we make internal changes possible and release a huge amount of energy for this.

7. Having blockages keeps you stuck in the past. When every space in your home is cluttered, you simply don't have room for anything new to come into your life. Clearing the rubble will allow you to move forward. You must free yourself from the past to create a better tomorrow.

8. Old, unnecessary things, junk - these are real energy eaters. If you do not dare to part with them, they gradually accumulate and begin to simply eat up your own energy, your vitality. Such bunnies, who value every rusty nail, every old button, every piece of rope, look lifeless, apathetic, unable to enjoy life. This is not surprising: they value their treasures so much that they give all their strength, all their energy to them.

9. Before hanging a new shirt in the closet, throw away the oldest shirt.

10. Get rid of everything old and worn out, with stains, holes

11. Black set of one fabric - trousers, long and short skirts, jacket.

12. By collecting unnecessary things just in case, we assume that this case will come and we will have to walk around, for example, in frayed pants. We set ourselves up for failure and trouble. Thus, we program ourselves and our loved ones for a life when you will not be able to buy new things, and you will be forced to wear old, unfashionable ones, having previously patched them up.

13. By leaving unnecessary things in the house, you are thereby programming yourself for poverty. The desire to hold on to old things is a sure sign of the psychology of poverty.

14. If within 1-1.5 years the thing that you were looking for and found with difficulty remains unnecessary, say goodbye to it.

15. The fewer things you leave, the sooner your wardrobe will be replenished with new ones.

16. By clinging to things that no longer serve you, you cling to principles and ideas that no longer serve you.

18. Do not leave clothes hanging over the backs of chairs.

20. The cost of a bouquet of flowers and a pair of tights is about the same, so why do we keep tights in our dresser drawer for years? We won’t keep a dried bouquet in a vase for so long!

21. Throw away those things that are frayed, worn out and unattractive in appearance.

22. Throw away shoes and bags of outdated models. Nothing ruins an outfit more than out-of-fashion shoes and bags.

23. Weed your wardrobe mercilessly and simply throw out everything that doesn’t bring you joy. Make room for new changes, new relationships, new loves that will come to replace old things.

24. Old things do not provide the opportunity to acquire new things, they accumulate negative energy, which can affect your well-being and luck in general.

25. Broken electrical appliances work like vampires, taking away the positive energy of the room and strengthening the negative.

26. A burnt-out light bulb will force you to spend more energy earning money, can worsen your well-being and give rise to self-doubt.

29. First of all, the trash can should be blessed with chipped and cracked dishes and mirrors with some defects.

30. Old, forgotten things represent postponed matters, unresolved tasks.

31. An altered item ends its days too early in a dark wardrobe.

32. Do not leave dried flowers or dust on them.

33. Any thing carries within itself the psychic energy that a person put into it.

34. The space of the apartment is filled with information about the things that are in it. If an item was shoved into a corner or pushed onto the mezzanine as unnecessary, then what information was put into it? And if there are a lot of such things in the apartment, then the whole house is filled with negative, dead zones that form around unnecessary objects. The space filled with such things becomes denser and begins to push a person out of his own apartment. A person can get sick, and very seriously. Because it loses vitality - its energy potential, wasting it on unnecessary things.

35. Looking at a portrait hanging on the wall, we inevitably transfer part of our consciousness there. Do we always have excess energy to throw away?

36. Through holes in clothes, which are on pockets, socks, tights (under jeans to save money), energy potential leaks. You can't hide yourself from yourself.

39. A worn jacket, with which the image of yourself as a loser is associated. Take it to the trash heap.

40. The smell of a blouse of pre-perestroika freshness, the aroma of unfulfilled hopes and disappointments. You've probably noticed that the owners of apartments chaotically filled with old furniture and other junk are usually unhappy and unlucky in life. It is difficult to judge what is the cause and what is the effect in this case. Either because of poverty there is no money to exchange the old for the new, or the energy of second hand cars has a special effect on the fate of the owners.

41. But every old thing is, in fact, unrealized dreams and plans.

42. We clear space not for new things, but for new desires, beginnings and achievements. Agree, old detectives, thrown into the trash are a small price to pay for a bright future.

43. Don't leave dust on mirrors.

44. Old things should be thrown away mercilessly.

45.Things have the ability to absorb and accumulate the energy of the person using them. Mostly negative. When there is too much energy, the thing begins to give it away. This is especially true for upholstered furniture that is used for sleeping. The maximum service life of a bed or sofa is 10 years.

46. ​​As soon as you want to make some changes in this life, get rid of unnecessary worries, troubles in the family and stagnation at work, as well as if your health worsens, immediately begin to free your home from negative emotions. The same can be done when everything in the house is just wonderful and there is not the slightest reason for any worries. Just to strengthen your positive aura and maintain appropriate harmony in your family and work.

47. All things that cause physical discomfort when worn should be mercilessly thrown away.

48. Criteria: how you feel in these clothes, a mirror, reviews you’ve heard before.

49. By clearing space, we signal our readiness to change and accept abundance and happiness into our lives.

50. If you want positive changes in your life, then make room for them!

51. A thing that has not been touched by human hands, that is not remembered, gradually becomes a carrier of necrotic, dead information. Even living things that you bought with hope and pleasure, if you get into such company, they can die.

52. Any thing has its own time and purpose. According to Feng Shui, your favorite thing gives you positive charges while absorbing negative ones. Having served its life, it, like a battery, must be disposed of. However, if you do not part with it, its negative charge can ruin the entire spiritual atmosphere in your apartment.

53. In addition, the constant contemplation of old and decrepit things (if they are not collectible and brilliantly restored antiques) forms the psychology of poverty in our minds. We get used to offending ourselves and being content with what is patched and shabby.

54. A thing should bring renewal and a desire to move forward!

55. The aura of things takes away part of a person’s space. Greed most of all punishes the owner himself: with the accumulated things, their negative energy is transferred to him.

56. Things that we stop using accumulate negative energy.

57. If you accidentally find something that you didn’t remember existed an hour ago, you can safely throw it in the trash, even if you really need it, you won’t find it.

58. Don't transform all rooms at once.

59. The effectiveness of clearing debris lies in the fact that while you are putting your outer world in order, corresponding changes occur at the inner level. Everything around you, and especially the objects around you at home, are a reflection of your inner state. When you remove “obstacles” in the space around you that interfere with the harmonious flow of energy, you thereby bring more harmony into your life, allowing new events to flow into it

60. When your home is filled with things you love or use often, they energize you. Debris, on the other hand, has a strong negative impact on you. If there are things in your home that give you unpleasant associations, they pollute your space and psyche, and it does not matter whether their service life has expired. A similar situation arises when your home is filled with furniture, figurines or other objects that constantly remind you of relatives or friends with whom you had or have strained relationships. These associations will have the same debilitating effect on you.

61. People prone to depression tend to keep junk on the bottom level. Remove everything unnecessary from the floor, and it will raise your energy and give you good spirits.

62. Buy only what is perfect, not just cute.

63. Keeping old books that you haven't used for a long time prevents you from creating space in your life for new ideas and original ways of thinking. When there are too many books in the house, your thinking stops. It is especially important not to accumulate such book debris in the relationship area (this symbolizes a replacement for human relationships). Books must be released when their time comes. Start sorting out your book pile with those books that you bought by chance and that you never used, as well as with old books that have already begun to deteriorate over time. Ultimately, you should be left with a set of books that will reflect the you of today as you want to be of tomorrow.

64. Learn the basic rule of Feng Shui: “Before something new comes, something old must go.”

65. Let's look at your wallpaper, furniture and everything else. Pay attention to how many unnecessary things are in your home. Things constantly absorb information, it lasts long enough, and this is reflected in the psyche.

66. How important it is to have a REALLY favorite thing in your wardrobe. Favorite things give you self-confidence! : your favorite things - they fit on you somehow differently, and you behave somehow differently in them, you feel super and this feeling is passed on to everyone around you!!! I always complete my wardrobe so that I feel good in any thing. After all, it’s so easy to lift your spirits when you put on your favorite skirt, it’s beyond words! Let this really be the beginning of such a wardrobe for you! =)

67. DO YOU WANT LOVE AND MONEY? START WITH... CLEANING!

68. Do not overload your home with unnecessary items, regularly clean and ruthlessly get rid of everything old and unusable: do not accumulate in closets things that have long gone out of fashion and use. You'll see by distributing your old clothes, you will clear the way for life-giving energy and thereby remove the “congestion” in your life- after all, Feng Shui teaches that everything is interconnected. By the way, according to some observations, rich houses often have much less things than poor ones. But is this so surprising? No, and if you want to become richer, but don’t know where to start, make room in your life for wealth by removing all the unnecessary things that bind you hand and foot.

69. If you want to arrange your personal life, remove from the walls portraits of ideal beauties, with which some representatives of the fair sex so love to decorate their homes... According to Feng Shui ideas, a lot of single ladies in your environment do not at all suggest the idea of ​​partnership, which is marriage and is. So it would be better to hang a picture of a happy couple on the wall, and then, every time you glance at it, you will subconsciously attract partnership into your life. No matter how trite it may sound, just a couple of hearts, kissing doves and other love symbols will do. Don't believe me? And you try, what if something really happens and life changes for the better?

70. Dust, garbage, heaps of unnecessary and forgotten things are sources of accumulation of negative energy, which carry an information charge of the past, close us off from the world and do not allow them to be replaced by new things and ideas.

71. Particular attention should be paid to torn and broken things. Either they need to be repaired immediately or thrown away immediately. And under no circumstances should they be allowed to sit for long periods of time until hands can reach them. According to Feng Shui, this is unacceptable, since their negative energy of accumulating destruction involuntarily breaks the internal harmony of the house.

72. Love for trash is a strong hint that you are strongly attached to the past and it is slowing down the path to a bright future. Having dealt with your old shoes, you can change your hairstyle, job, apartment, etc. Or take a different look at what is. In any case, there will be more space in the corridor.

73. Rubble is the greatest evil you can imagine!!! Sometimes only their elimination gives amazing results!!! But we must not just disassemble and rake, but do it purposefully. That is, when clearing everything out, have a clear understanding of why you are doing this. For something new to come into our lives, we need to get rid of the old. When removing all this, you need to say: “I am taking all this apart so that it can come into my life...” Well, further down the list of what you would like...

74. I think it worked for me. Indeed, new acquaintances began to appear after purchasing the dolphins. Or are these just coincidences?

75. Start with something. Give the opportunity for favorable energy to penetrate your home. And then CI will work with you for one thing.

76. Cleaning the house can be supported by washing floors, windows, and clearing cabinets of debris and dust. Because like attracts like, dirty and disorderly houses attract vibrations that disturb us. Even if your house is not kept perfectly clean, it is in order and you know where everything is. When cleaning the house, imagine how you are sweeping away the sorrows and worries that have accumulated in the house.

77. And “cleaned” things can be safely worn. Over time, they will become “their own”, loved ones. And even “lucky” - a kind of talismans. We willingly wear such clothes for exams and important events. You can also imagine one of the mechanisms of luck: once we were lucky, and our emotional charge remained on these things. When we put on these clothes again, they will recharge us with exactly THAT energy. Naturally, our mood will improve, our tone will increase, we will be energetic and confident. And we will again be accompanied by success - “luck”. The charge of the “talisman” will increase even more.

78. If your home is not littered with junk and extraneous things, then you will have the opportunity to: a) keep your mind clean and tidy, b) allow new opportunities and things to enter your home.

79. And although you may be the only one who sees a cluttered basement or garage, the power of the energy impact of the room does not decrease: you are the one on whom all the blows fall. You will be the first to be affected by the Qi of that room.

80. The more unnecessary things you collect, the slower the movement of qi in your apartment or office becomes. So don’t be surprised that your life plans are not being realized, and you feel as if something is always getting in the way.

81. Any red thing that you use at work - a book with a red cover, red pens or other stationery will have a positive impact. Red, pink and white objects symbolize love and eroticism.

82.You want a home that is larger. First you must adapt yourself to such a dwelling, creating, as far as possible, a little paradise out of your house. Keep it spotlessly clean. Let him look as cute and pleasant as your means allow. Prepare even the simplest food with care and set the table with the best taste you can muster. By improving your habitat, you will rise above it, and from there, in due time, you will enter the better home and habitats that have been waiting for you all this time, and which you have adapted for yourself.

83. Home can and is the point of concentration of magic, power and spirit.

84. Home is a mirror reflection of ourselves.

85. Our home is a symbolic representation of ourselves and, in fact, in a deeper sense, an extension of ourselves. At home these are our models. Change this pattern and the energy will change. Tidying up drawers changes this pattern.

86. To get rid of a negative past, get rid of objects in your home that carry the energy of the past into the present. Zulus burn clothes they wear when they get into trouble to get rid of the emotional imprint left on the clothes. Some cultures burn the clothes a woman wore when she gave birth, so that she and the baby symbolically enter a new cycle of existence. If there are objects in your home that remind you of something bad or were given to you by someone you don't like, get rid of them.

87. Things in your home should bring back good memories. Otherwise, negative associations will reduce the energy of your home. When you buy something for your home, remember that how you feel when you buy it will affect how you feel once it's in your home. If you buy something and the salesperson is rude and you feel irritated, then chances are you will never truly enjoy the item. If the mood when purchasing is good and joyful, then the associations with this item will be pleasant.

88. If possible, radically change the environment: rearrange the furniture, change the color scheme of the rooms, etc. Change everything beyond recognition.

89. Make the energy of your home become a real magnet, attracting love and happiness. If the energy of love has settled in your home; love will be attracted to you from outside too. The energy field attracts only that which is similar in character and quality to itself. Focus your attention especially on the intention with which you are transforming the energy of your home: what you would like to see in your home.

90. Things that clutter a house take away the vital energy of the residents of the house. Think: old trash takes away your health, your vitality, and therefore years of your life! So it's more expensive for you; your own life or old trash?

91. There is always a temptation to put off for later things that are outdated or require repair, that have fallen out of use in the course of everyday life. But this is like putting off happiness and harmony in your home for later. Some people continue to use cracked, chipped or scratched dishes year after year, even though they have fine cutlery locked away in their cupboards. Thus, they seem to inspire themselves: I do not deserve harmony in my daily life;.

92. Be absolutely ruthless about decluttering.

93. Never wear clothes that you have negative memories associated with, no matter how much they cost.

94. Iron wrinkled things. And don't be lazy! It’s better to iron them at one time than to curse and iron them constantly, being late for the next date, etc.).

95. Place wrinkle-resistant items on shelves. Sweaters for sweaters, T-shirts for T-shirts.

96. Immediately after ironing, hang things on hangers (hangers, hangers). Don't overload the hangers, otherwise everything will soon be wrinkled again.

97. Hanging order: Yes; skirts, then trousers, then blouses, then; jackets. Can; by style: business and classic, then; sports, then; for special occasions. Consider division by color scheme.

98. Came home and undressed; immediately see what is dirty and what; No. Don’t be too lazy to put all clean things in their usual places, and dirty ones; put it in the wash.

99. In the evening, decide on your clothes for tomorrow.

100. Get rid of everything that does not suit the style, color and size.

101. God forbid you from carrying the things of a dead person; his suits, dresses, coats, boots. Thus, you will connect yourself with an energy channel to the afterlife, and your energy will flow through this channel.

102. Practical people always have such a warehouse of recyclable materials, justifying its presence by the fact that everything can come in handy someday. But, excuse me, someday you will need a high-quality single-seat coffin; will you really buy that in advance?

103. Most of us have a developed hamster instinct: to hide everything we can in a hole. But the mink is not rubber. Gradually, things clog all the pores of the house, so that it is impossible to turn around, they lie somewhere on the mezzanine for years, gathering dust and spoiling in cramped spaces and various closets and pantries, huddling forlornly under sofas and shelving. More than once, you probably had a feeling of melancholy when you found yourself in the room of a lonely ancient old woman. Do you know why? This is not only the old age of the owner of the apartment, but also the smell, the specific smell of a hamster’s home. Because in this old woman’s closet, mixed with new, clean things, there were dresses that she had once worn in her youth, and moth-eaten hats that had gone out of fashion half a century ago; in her sideboard there were broken mugs, neatly glued together in places where they had been chipped, and plates with chipped edges and even pieces of half-eaten bread. All of them carried information about decrepitude, about the readiness to crumble into dust at the very first touch. That's why never regret throwing anything away.

104. Often we even get sick because we keep all sorts of junk at home.

105. By leaving unnecessary things in the house, you are thereby programming yourself for poverty. The desire to hold on to old things is a sure sign of the psychology of poverty. Old things do not provide the opportunity to acquire new ones; they accumulate negative energy, which can affect well-being and luck in general. Holding on to old things thinking, “What if I don’t have the money to buy new things and I’ll never have one again?” We program ourselves for the fact that we will not be able to earn money and buy the things we need.

106. You should not keep cut flowers in a vase for a long time. Firstly, they themselves, withering, bring death, and secondly, stagnant water is negative energy. The memory of death is hidden in stuffed animals, herbariums, insect collections, dried flowers and even natural fur coats.

107. Never accumulate or store old things for a long time. Your life has become better, and they are “pulling” you into the past. Don't use the item for more than a year - get rid of it. Only those objects that you like should “live” in the house, then there will be much fewer unfavorable zones.

108. Old, worn slippers attract negative energy. Also, you should not store torn, unusable clothes in the house. Dishes with cracks or chips disrupt the energy of food, making it hazardous to health. No matter how much you like the dishes, if they are cracked, it is better to throw them away.

109. “In a dress that is not worn, resentment towards the owner accumulates,” Vanga said, advising not to accumulate unnecessary clothes at home. Things that a person has not worn for a long time tend to be “collected” inthemselves negative energy, which destroys the material well-being of the owners.

110. In space, the main thing is space. It is space, free space that is the favorable energy of our home. By cluttering the space of the house with unnecessary things and junk, we block the energy flow of health, success, well-being and comfort.

111. To make it easier to determine whether you need an item or not, ask yourself “if I move, will I pack it or get rid of it?”

112. Where in your apartment or house is the most junk - in the wardrobes, on the balcony, in the bathroom? From there, start general cleaning. When sorting out your wardrobes, throw away things you don't need - those that you haven't used for more than a year.

113. Putting things in order should be given special attention if there has been a serious crisis in life or stagnation in relationships. Devote at least six days to this and clean up the mess yourself.

114. Trash attracts only trash.

115. Old perfume, pants and jugs are bad. This is programming yourself for life without change. Every thing from the past brings back some memories and makes you look back. And this is dangerous You can't go back to the past, you can skip the future. It must be mercilessly and irrevocably broken, torn, given away, disposed of. Anything needs to be done with old things, but just don’t store them, don’t fill the mezzanines, suitcases, boxes with rubbish, which will certainly be sent for later storage to the garage or basement.

116. By holding on to old things with the thoughts “What if I don’t have the money to buy new things and I’ll never have this again?”, we resonate with the mentality of the poor and get poverty. If we calmly throw away unnecessary things with the thoughts “I’ll buy more or the Universe will give me better,” we resonate with the mentality of the rich and gain wealth.

117. When we put on an old thing, or spray ourselves with perfume that we haven’t used for a long time, or hear music from the past, we are literally taken back to the past. This is elementary NLP - all these so-called “Anchors” are emotional. Some memories are associated with old things (perfume, clothes and everything) and they are automatically reproduced upon contact with the anchor. But the fact is that not only emotions appear - old thoughts appear in us, but this is very dangerous, because thoughts, as we know, shape life. So we shape our lives with old thoughts and don’t get what we want.

Classification of unnecessary things from Gretchen Rubin. Gretchen divided all the trash into the following categories:

Useless trash is things that are stored because they are, in principle, necessary, although you personally do not need them. These can be numerous glass jars, which may come in handy someday when you are planning to “screw” something into them.

Trinkets - all kinds of useless souvenirs, key rings, postcards, figurines, magnets, etc.

Used trash is basically old clothes and underwear that we don’t throw away just because they haven’t completely worn out yet. How many T-shirts do you have in your closets that have long since become shapeless and you don’t wear them?

Pretentious trash - things that you have, but you use them only in your dreams. For example, a huge exercise bike that takes up a third of the room, and you think that someday I will start exercising on it in the morning. Or a set of dishes in the closet from which you have never eaten or drunk.

Unsuccessful purchases - sometimes, instead of admitting that we bought an unnecessary thing, we put it on a distant shelf in the hope that it will “come in handy someday.” As a rule, unsuccessfully purchased items of clothing, shoes, bags and accessories fall into this category. But there may also be unsuccessfully purchased cosmetics that you don’t want to use, but it’s a pity to throw away!

10 “valuable” things that should be thrown in the trash immediately.

1. Expired cosmetics.
Why keep old mascara and lipstick? What about collecting empty perfume bottles? Any cosmetics are created to make us more beautiful, and not to cause a bacterial infection.

2. Uncomfortable shoes.
Just admit it, there are some shoes that when you put them on, you curse them every time because of the unbearable pain and calluses?! Yes, they are very beautiful and stylish, but there are a million other shoes in the world that are comfortable. Can't throw away those shoes? Put them in the most visible place and sign: “My favorite instrument of torture.”

3. “When I lose weight” clothes.
Somewhere in the far corner of your closet lies a neat stack of things that you dream of wearing when you lose those extra (extra for you only, no one else notices) pounds. Yes, it works as motivation, but it is negative and depressing.

4. Postcards from people you don't remember.
A small, beautiful box holds a stack of greeting cards. Old ones. Banal and ugly. From people you will never communicate with again. Why do we need this warehouse of cardboard boxes with “sincere” wishes? Leave cards only from loved ones, the rest is in the trash!

5. Porcelain dishes.
Museum exhibits should be kept in a museum! Take grandma the old sets that are cluttering up the sideboards and cupboards - put in their place vases with fresh flowers - no more mothballs.

6. Paper spam.
Why drag various printed materials from the mailbox into your apartment? The only thing you need is utility bills. All other printed rubbish is unnecessary and unnecessary trash.

7. “Unwearable” underwear.
Who came up with the classification of linen “for critical days”, “for every day” and “for special occasions”? Do an audit and leave only panties and bras that make you feel especially sexy. And throw away all the tights with arrows with the mysterious mission “Under your pants” (you’ll never wear them!).

8. Old phones, players and other equipment.
These valuable gadgets may be useful for young test physicists for experiments, but you absolutely do not need them.

9. Books that you will never read.
Only your favorite books and those needed for work/study should be in a prominent place. Multi-volume works of Marx or “The Life of Klim Samgin” by Gorky - for the library or for recycling, and not for collecting dust and creating the entourage of an intellectual.

10. Memories of former relationships.
Can't throw away your ex's T-shirt that still smells like his perfume? Or a stack of handwritten poems written by a traitor just for you? Once you get rid of material reminders, it’s easier to get the person out of your head. As they say, out of sight, out of mind!
