Usually though, all of our excuses, fears, and resistance come back to a few common struggles.<\/p>\n<p>One of those struggles is guilt. It was an issue for me, and based on our conversations, I think it may bother you too.<\/p>\n<h2>My guilt<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>I remember feeling guilt when I looked in my closet and saw clothes I never wore purchased with money I didn\u2019t have.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>I felt guilt when I said no to people, or even when I thought about saying no.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There was the guilt about gifts. I felt bad about letting go of things other people gave me.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>I felt guilty about overdue credit card bills and collection calls, for shopping to feel better, for feeling less than enough because I didn\u2019t own the right things, or have the right car\/shoes\/kitchen &#8230; and the list goes on and on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>I even felt guilty for rejecting all the things I thought I always wanted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This guilt wasn\u2019t all consuming, but it surfaced more when I made the decision to start slowing down and letting go. I finally had the time and space to feel all the feelings.<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3167 size-full\" style=\"border: 1px solid #090909;\" src=\"https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/goguilt.jpg\" alt=\"How to Let Go of the Guilt of Letting Go\" width=\"650\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/goguilt.jpg 650w, https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/goguilt-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/goguilt-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p><strong>1. Own the guilt.<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you feel guilty every time you open your closet and see an expensive dress hanging with the tags still on, or a pair of shoes that give you blisters, own it. Write it down. That flash of guilt you may experience on a daily basis has become so consistent, it feels normal.<\/p>\n<p>What you may have forgotten though is that it is your choice to carry the burden of feeling guilty about what&#8217;s in your closet, or other areas of your home. It&#8217;s your choice. (this was a tough one for me)<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Reject the guilt.<\/strong><br \/>\nI used to think I was supposed to feel guilty. After all, with all the mistakes I made, shouldn\u2019t a bit of guilt go along with them? What I didn\u2019t know is that the guilt was weighing me down with absolutely no\u00a0purpose. The guilt wasn&#8217;t serving me in any way. When I recognized that guilt had become an anchor, instead of inspiring something better, it was easier to let it go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Let it flow.<\/strong><br \/>\nIn January, I did a webinar with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slowyourhome.com\/about-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my friend Brooke<\/a>.\u00a0She was addressing a question about gifts. Someone asked &#8220;What should I do if I am trying to\u00a0live with less and people give me gifts I don\u2019t want.&#8221; Brooke\u00a0said, \u201cSimply let them flow through your home.\u201d In other words accept the gifts with love and then let them go.\u00a0Brooke and I knew the question wasn\u2019t really about what to do with the gifts, but instead what to do with the guilt so I added, \u201cLet the guilt flow out with the gifts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In my experience the biggest gift of gifts is in the exchange. It\u2019s in the \u201cI\u2019m thinking of you.\u201d or the \u201cI love you.\u201d and not what\u2019s contained in the gift box. Is there really any &#8220;thing&#8221; someone could give you to prove their love? It doesn&#8217;t happen like that. Love isn&#8217;t a one time gift. It doesn&#8217;t arrive wrapped perfectly, and you never have to prove it.<\/p>\n<p>Letting it flow doesn&#8217;t just apply to gifts. When you let go of anything in your life that doesn&#8217;t add value, let the guilt flow with it.<\/p>\n<h2>Guilty situations and solutions<\/h2>\n<p>Here are a few solutions to simplicity related guilty situations you may be experiencing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Guilt about letting go of a sentimental item: <a href=\"https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/victorylap\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Try a victory lap<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Closet chaos guilt: <a href=\"https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/goodcloset\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Clean out your closet for good<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Guilt around relationships and boundaries, especially when you are telling yourself stories about what other people are thinking: <a href=\"http:\/\/jesslively.com\/brenebrown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">This!

Let love replace the guilt. Remind yourself that you simply don&#8217;t have room in your life for guilt.<\/p>\n<h2>The guilt of\u00a0letting go doesn&#8217;t come from letting go.<\/h2>\n<p>When stuff becomes a\u00a0constant reminder of debt or discontent, <a href=\"https:\/\/bemorewithless.com\/sad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we feel bad, sad, and guilty<\/a>. When I look back, I can clearly see that guilt was just as much a part of my clutter as the things hanging in my closet or stuff in my junk drawers. I also know that the guilt and the stuff were deeply connected and when I let go of the stuff, the guilt went with it.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s interesting about the guilt of letting go, is the guilt doesn\u2019t usually come from letting go. It comes from holding on. When guilt is attached to holding on, the only remedy is to let go.<\/p>\n<p>I could continue to feel guilt about past mistakes, about my past debt, clutter, and busyness. Instead, I\u2019ve let it go so I can live today with purpose and joy. I continue to create more space and time in my life, but if I fill it all with guilt and regret, there won\u2019t be \u00a0room for all the love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We each have our own reasons for holding on to stuff, clutter, negative emotions, and other things.
