Spoon theory - what a gift to those of us with chronic illness, disability or mental health challenges! Spoon theory is a theory anyone can use - it's simply a theory to articulate personal energy levels and capacity on any given day.
Energy is consumed by daily activity, decision making, socialising, talking, listening, thinking, emotions - all your activities require spoons! For some people having a shower requires just one spoon, for someone else it requires 4 spoons - and getting to know your own energy levels is a great tool for self empathy, self actualisation and self advocacy.
Having a cluttered home and trying to manage an excess of possessions, or constantly feeling like you're tidying up uses a lot of spoons. So the habit and activity of decluttering and organising is a great gift to your future self. Less clutter means your daily tidying requires less spoons.
And if you're someone who finds that doing the activity of decluttering requires SO MANY SPOONS, you'll find some great tips in this episode for how to conserve spoons while also moving forward.
