Beginning the process can be the most challenging, there is no right or wrong way, or to what extent you will declutter. Focus on taking care of yourself, doing what feels right, and not rushing. Some tips: set small, achievable goals; let go of guilt and remember removing belongings doesn’t weaken the connection or the memories; ask for help if you overwhelmed; consider if you will save things for yourself, for others, donate, sell, or throw away; remember giving your family a meaningful gift can be priceless. The process can itself be meaningful and is an opportunity to help you process grief.
