Recently many of my clients have just wanted to get a good night’s sleep, and they realize that their current bedrooms are not conducive to deep restorative sleep. After all, we spend 26 years of our lives asleep and as many as 7 years trying to GET to sleep! I suggest these Feng Shui-approved actions…

The first week in August is officially Simplify Your Life week. What will YOU do to “celebrate”? ANY holiday that STARTS with the name of my business is one near and dear to me! A friend came back from a beach vacation and was able to look at her home with “fresh eyes.” All of a sudden,…

As a CPO (Certified Professional Organizer) I have MANY organizing “commandments” that I believe people should live by. My first and foremost commandment is: Let your container determine the contents! For example, a carton of milk holds 128 ounces. Try and fit an ounce more, and it will be full to overflowing.

Moving and decluttering strategies are hot topics of conversation in my FB Group! The shift to remote work, a more urgent desire to live near family, or a greater need to save money by relocating to a less expensive area are ALL factors that have inspired people to pack up and go!

It seems everyone is planning a long vacation AWAY from home! Are you?

I was recently introduced to the powerful idea of “The 27 Thing Fling” by Michelle Eades, who discovered it here. The simple act of moving or clutter-clearing 27 items in your space can create a huge shift in energy! This idea is rooted in ancient Feng Shui, which is 6000 years old, so there is some “proof of concept.” Michelle told me how…

Are you planning a vacation this summer? I am and I can’t wait! To prepare, I pulled out my old travel checklist which was so dated it had “camera and camera charger” on it! HA! I may have made that list when I was in my 30s, so it was time for an update. I went…

Two years ago I suggested that you approach the upcoming “Prime Day” as a time to deeply reflect on what you have now and what you really need. Prime Day 2021 is in just a week and I implore you to think hard about what you may purchase again! 148 billion Americans—nearly half of the population—subscribe to Prime,…
