Clutter Busting: Let Go Of What's Holding You Back

With Brooks Palmer

This 10 day course will help you take a deep, thorough, and kind look at what’s no longer serving you in your life and help you let it go. You’ll find that when you let go of the clutter of what’s not for you, you get back your life and feel free again. With your renewed sense of aliveness at the end of the course, you will take with you a valuable sense of your own sacredness to use for the rest of your life.

Thank you so much for this course, Brooks. I found it was a deep experience far beyond letting go of physical clutter which is what first prompted me to find your work. I find your energy just lovely - gentle, kind, honest and light. I'm feeling inspired to let go of a lot in my life at the moment and hope to experience a greater sense of freedom as I do so. I'll be returning to this course and exploring your other material to help me in this. Thank you 🙏

I almost gave 4 stars because I didn't think there was enough clutter busting talk the way I expected it to sound. Then I realized I had expectations. I chose to let go of those expectations. I'm actually hoping I am allowed to listen to this course again, to see what I take away on the second go round. I really appreciate Brooks voice and the words he chooses. To me, he doesn't sound like a professional. He sounds like a friend. A fellow human being fellow traveling in life next to me. Thank you Brooks:) I found you on Insight Timer in early 2020. I listened for free for about a year, then my habit fell away. At the end of 2023, I felt a strong pull to pay for a year of the upgraded version. Then I let time pass by again. Gently. With little judgement. Then as the new year came, I had a strong pull to look up Brooks Palmer again, but i forgot his name. I finally remembered I had bookmarked a bunch of his and found them in my favorites. Yay! I'm excited to continually declutter many areas of my life. I'm considering looking into helping others with their work on a similar journey. I'm starting with me though, so I'll have something to share:) Lisa Woo

Great service. Thank you. " If someone go out of their way to be nice to you. It feels really good" ......... I completely agree and understand. You can't be kind without knowing the kindness. And first be kind to yourself. Sending love . Have a great day ....

Thank you! Interesting, useful and inspirational views - and I also like the quality of the recording, your voice and the sounds of nature, birds and insects. I couldn't wait for the next part, so I completed the course in three days 😊 - and it got me started decluttering, both fysically and mentally ...

I really appreciate the simple insights given daily. I especially loved the meditation on spirituality. It was said in a way that I could absorb it and it’s left a positive impact on my sense of self worth. So thankful for you putting this together and sharing.
