And what I want to talk about is how those four things, what the outcome actually looks like, because they are also the outcomes that I hear people talk about all the time.

and clinically and in our session work with clients, these four things come out over and over and over again, hence why I've been teaching it for years and years.

And now I have research to back it up, which is really exciting.

So the first thing I want to go into is this greater wellbeing.

Here's a quote from one of the participants in the study.

I feel much calmer and relaxed, less stressed.

I feel like I've got space just to curl up on a comfy chair with a book and not worry about the things around me.

So having less stuff allows you to feel in control of your space.

It allows you to feel good about yourself, about how you're using your time and your money and your energy and aligning how you live with your values.

This greater wellbeing, and we've talked so many episodes this year about that wellbeing and really going into some of the clinical research around it, which is great.

And you can go back and listen to those episodes.

But I want to help you to kind of picture and imagine what these things might look like because you might be motivated by the fact that the moment you get home from work, maybe you pick up the kids from childcare on the way or you're looking after the grandkids, you get home, you rush to get the dinner, you sit down at the table if you're lucky or maybe you're just eating as you're standing or eating in front of the TV.

And you're getting down dinner and you're straight into the dishes and you feel like you're on the go.

You know how people talk about like, we know what you do from your nine to five, but what do you do in your five to nine?

And if your answer of what you do in your five to nine is basically just look after the house and go, go, go the entire time.

One of the motivations can be like, I just want greater wellbeing.

I want my five to nine to not be as chaotic.

And there are seasons of life.

If you've got really little kids and you've got lots of little kids, there's going to be bath time and story time and readers and, you know, bathroom trips.

And you're going to have to do all of the things.
