One way to quiet the negative emotions that trouble us as we work to let go of clutter is to shift our focus to something more positive, like the thought of how our stuff might help someone else. In episode #47 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, suggests ways to lighten the clutter load during the giving season through donations to friends, family, neighbors, and charitable causes.
