If you are embarking on a new chapter of life, the thought of shedding familiar possessions can feel even more stressful. This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.

Carethy internet shopping site DO NOT USE scammers

They are a bunch of scammers which as I now notice is very much out there in their reviews. I wished I had known this before I ordered. The general theme seems to be the same. You order what you want, they take your payment and it all looks very professional. Weeks later and after many emails to them, they inform you that they do not have the stock. They offer you the opportunity to spend your money elsewhere on their site rather than a refund. This is also a con so don’t go there either! Eventually, you will manage to get a response which offers you a refund within 14 business days! (Does it really take that long to refund a card). Anyway, that is where any communication with you ends, no matter how many emails a day you could possibly send, and they run off into the sunset with your hard earned cash. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY, IT IS A SCAM! Please share this information far and wide so that they hopefully stop thinking they can scam Kiwis.
