Marie Kondo introduced the KonMari Method™ in her best-selling book, “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.” Her approach is based on a single question: Does this item spark joy? The ability of identifying what sparks joy leads to a space filled only with items that you love.
Marie Kondo personally struggled with tidying up her own clutter and through this struggle she adopted a method that has changed the way people approach their clutter and life.
Following this method of tidying I was able to let go of so many items that didn’t spark joy but had been holding onto for years for all the wrong reasons; such as guilt because of how much I spent on it, it was a gift or simply I never took the time to ask myself if the item ‘sparks joy’. As a Certified KonMari Consultant, I’m loving the opportunity to share this method and see my client’s transformations in their spaces and lives.
The 6 Basic Rules of Tidying:
- Commit Yourself to Tidying Up
- Imagine Your Ideal Lifestyle
- Finish Discarding First
- Tidy by Category, Not by Location
- Follow the Right Oder
- Ask Yourself If It Sparks Joy
