Ask Claire: advice and true stories on how to feel good while navigating life and motherhood

Episode 9: 40 Bags in 40 Days | Clearing The Clutter Challenge Part 1

Welcome! In today's episode, I share with you my new challenge. It is called 40 Bags in 40 Days: Clearing The Clutter with Claire. I invite you to come along with me and follow my FREE PDF (download linked below.) It's a way for us to clear out the clutter from our spaces so we can free up and clear out what no longer serves us as we enter into a new season. It's meant to be a baby step process, and get you thinking about our goals. Our goals are linked directly with our habits, and our habits are connected to our routine. What stops so many of us from finalizing a healthy routine or achieving goals and maintaining a lifestyle is our surroundings. As a busy mom of five, I totally get what it is like to be overwhelmed, distracted and unhappy with my space. It blocks me from making better choices and reaching goals, while operating a full house. On the flip side, I love the feeling of being organized and knowing where everything goes. It gives my day meaning and purpose. It provides safety and guidance for my kids and even my husband and dog. I would love to guide you as we go ahead and lighten our work loads and reach for our goals in baby steps. What would it feel like for you to know where everything is in your house? OR maybe it would just be nice to know you are not alone when trying to get out of the overwhelm. Life happens, and sometimes we just need an extra push. Follow along with me and others here and on Instagram.

Episode 8: Ask Claire About Chakras

In this episode I share one of my most frequently asked questions I receive while in a client session. And that is, what are chakras? It's not uncommon to hear about it, or in some cases it is. But for busy, modern day moms such  as myself and many of my clients and friends, I realize it really isn't talked about or practiced in such a way that would benefit our daily lives. I share what they are, and how you can learn more about the Chakra system, as well as how you can now practice and use my mp3 programs for meditation and energy work on your timeline with your schedule. I am really excited about this.

Gut Instincts

In this episode I share why I pushed my doctors' to refer me places in order for me to physically get relief in my gut. (And it's a good thing I did!) It took many attempts to be heard, but finally I persevered and got the answers that finally brought me relief. Sometimes it takes hearing no to say no, and then taking action when your instincts are screaming at you to keep going. I learned to trust the energy and my gut feelings, aka instincts, over just words and suggestions.

Episode 6: Summer Mission 1: toy declutter & organization

After spending many months figuring out the best way to declutter our life, I made this summer my mission to stay as focused as possible to take back the space and toss what no longer felt good. Including the kids was a big part of the process, and now there are clearly defined areas for each kid as well as purposeful ways to enjoy their toys and belongings. In this episode I share how I did it, what I used, and why it made sense to include the kids in the process. I also share what I did and how I take action when I notice that I nag them too much. Taking action right away made the biggest difference, and saved me so much of my sanity! disclaimer [https://www.clairerinaldi.com/disclaimer] white stackable storage bin link: https://amzn.to/2NMX1I2 [https://amzn.to/2NMX1I2] Info and links!

Episode 5: how & why my daughters' learned to bake

In this episode I share how allowing my kids to learn how to bake has positively impacted their routine and is even teaching them independence and self-care! Inspired by their choices, I even created a set of mugs for fun & to add to our daily routine as a family. (Now, they are available to you, too! Click here [shop.clairerinaldi.com] to see!)
