Are you feeling weighed down by your commitments, habits, and relationship dynamics? Now, you can step back and reassess on your own time and at your own pace. The Creative Midlife Review is a workbook designed to help you declutter your midlife, freeing up time and space for the person you're becoming. Its creative exercises and "Keep, Tweak, Let Go" framework create awareness and discernment so you can have more peace, calm, and fulfilment. Consider this guided journal a gift you can give yourself whether you're in a midlife transition, stuck in a rut, or want to unlock what you want to focus on next.
We begin by flashing forward. This chapter invites you to visualize what you want for yourself and what a decluttered midlife might look and feel like. Your vision becomes a touchstone to which you can keep returning as you complete the rest of the exercises.
Once you have your vision, it's time to step back and notice things you might not be fully aware of. This chapter will help you gain deeper insights into your daily choices, behaviour, and thought patterns.
Taking a moment or two to appreciate the people, things, and situations that are working creates clarity about what you might want to make more space for. This chapter is your opportunity to celebrate what's working and populate your "Keep" pile.
The things that bother you, make you mad, or that you dread aren't simply there to ruin your day. They are signposts and information about what you don't want, what isn't working, and what needs to change. This chapter will help you clarify what to put in your "Tweak" and "Let Go" piles.
These downloadable frameworks give you the space to play with different choices, zooming in and zooming out.
In this final step, you'll focus on finalizing your commitments and embracing the changes that lie ahead.
