Why we Hold onto Clothes We No Longer Wear; The Importance of Changing our Wardrobes.
Why do we keep clothing tucked away, scrunched in the corner of our dresser? They get pushed around every time we look for something we want to wear. We think about donating them. For some reason, we can't seem to get rid of them.
Sometimes we want things to fit again. We have grown too big or small for some of our favorite clothing. But growth is a part of life. Our bodies change! It is healthy to have clothes that fit and not torture ourselves with a reminder of what once was.
We add sentimental value to cloth. It's the shirt we wore that one period in our lives when something incredible happened. We equate tossing the clothes to throwing away those precious memories.
It seems a bit insane when spelled out, but it is incredibly common. Life is about growth and moving on. We change our tastes in style, our bodies change, life constantly continues. Our wardrobe reflects how we see ourselves and present ourselves to the world.
Don't be afraid to donate that shirt you haven't worn in months. Slowly start adding new additions to your wardrobe while cycling out the old.
You'll be surprised how good it feels and the confidence that comes with bold new style and clothes that fit comfortably.
Let go and be present with who you are now. No more pushing away the same article of clothing daily.
