Living Together with Love and Tidiness
Moving in together? Need to make room for your bf or gf? Buying a new home with your hubby or wife?
This is the perfect time to assess all of your personal belongings for purpose and function.
Clutter can cause frustration in a relationship so keep in mind what you are trying to create with this person.
More importantly, be aware of how you yourself are wanting to be nurtured and cared for in your space. How do you want to live? Does your partner shower early in the morning and you like to sleep in?
You will need to find a new rhythm and create some new systems and habits together and separately.
You must make room for this new part of your life to manifest in all ways and being your best self begins with you.
If your partner likes to sleep in in the morning maybe you can make your lunch and prepare your morning coffee the night before. Little thoughtful tasks keep the fire burning and allow for your partner to feel well taken care of.
Also, if you are really serious about the relationship, remove any items that may be connected to old bfs or gfs. The same goes for your established relationship, remove all the things that are no longer serving either of you.
Downsizing and simplifying will give you more energy and inspiration and all of this will help your new living situation to flourish.
Good luck!
