This is Hello Freedom and I'm your host Terry Cole.

For almost two decades I've been a licensed psychotherapist and transformation coach, and on this show I will bring you simple strategies based on practical psychology, inspiring expert interviews, and my own insights and observations

from my time on the front lines of the fascinating worlds of entertainment,

empowerment, and mental health.

Now let's get going with today's episode. Well, hello and welcome to Hello Freedom.

I am your host Terry Cole.

And I am so excited about a few things. One of them is that it's finally stopped

snowing here in the northeast and the other is that you are hanging out with me

today for a couple of minutes just to talk

about some stuff so I'm going to be talking about spring and spring cleaning but

since I'm much more interested in anaphrood than I am, let's say, Martha Stewart,

I'm not going to be talking about the regular spring cleaning. I'm actually going to be talking about a psychological spring cleaning.

So this really was the winter that never, ever ended, at least where I am. In the spring I do thoroughly clean my house, many of us

do, right? We purred all the unessential piles of crap that have accumulated all of the hats and the mittens and the coats but

also other crap piles of paper I feel like when the winter comes I'm just collecting

stuff and this is a perfect time to edit through the stuff that you've collected,

not just physically, right, not just in your home, in your mind.

So what is it that we collect in our minds?

And why do you need to do,

basically getting rid of the mental dust bunnies.

Part of it is that your brain only has so much room, and if you're not being

mindful, you'll have lots of things taking up space, important real estate
