THE KONMARI METHOD®
Most organizers advocate a room-by-room or little-by-little technique vs. a holistic approach taking the whole person into consideration along with the whole home.
The KonMari Method® encourages tidying by category – not by location – beginning with clothes, then moving on to books, papers, komono (miscellaneous items), and, finally, sentimental items. Keep only those things that speak to the heart, and discard items that no longer spark joy. Thank them for their service – then let them go.
People around the world have been drawn to this philosophy not only due to its effectiveness, but also because it places great importance on being mindful, introspective and forward-looking.

“I recently lost 100 pounds and worked with Heather using the KonMari Method in my home as I was losing the weight.
It was really eye-opening to discover that while shedding weight in my body, I also felt incredibly free by shedding the weight of clothing that no longer served me.
Now, instead of dreading a closet in complete disarray, I feel a sense of calm and optimism I never had before. With Heather‘s encouragement and guidance, I have achieved a beautiful closet I enjoy going into and a wardrobe I love wearing.”

“Before KonMari, my life was one huge storage unit…physically, emotionally, mentally. My belongings ruled over me and I was miserable.
Heather brings wisdom, insight, and an instant calming presence. She never pushed me to get rid of things. She allowed space and time to decide.
Through the process, I was able to free up space, clear my mind, and begin to see clearly what brings me joy. The KonMari Method is truly life-changing and Heather does an excellent job!”
