How the KonMari Method® works
CONSULTATION
We start with a free Consultation that can be up to 30 minutes. You will tell me more about your frustrations and specific needs and I will tell you about Marie Kondo and how I can help you. If we like each other we will schedule our first Tidy Session, the minimum of which is 3 hours.
Marie Kondo is a Japanese expert on home decluttering and organizing, the bestselling author of “The life-changing magic of tidying”. You might have also watched her popular series on Netflix "Tidying up with Marie Kondo".
In the core of her teaching is that we only need to surround ourselves with things that bring us JOY.
As a trained KonMari consultant I will help you declutter and organize your home one Category at a time. There are 5 Categories which should be worked on in the specific order as provided by the KonMari® Method:
-
Clothes
-
Books
-
Papers
-
Komono (miscellaneous) – recreational, hobby, skincare, electrical equipment, kitchen, etc.
-
Sentimental
I will be there to guide you and physically help you but you need to do the JOY check and make the decisions what to keep.
It has taken Marie Kondo years of hard work, research, studying and testing all other methods to come to the one that works. She created the KonMari Method® that had proven: you will not have a rebound; you will have tidied for good. The basic principles of the method are:
-
You need to commit to complete the whole process.
-
Imagine your ideal lifestyle and the end result you aspire to achieve, it will keep you going.
-
Discard first, once done, only then store the items.
-
Tidy by Category NOT by Location.
-
Follow the right order of the categories.
-
Ask yourself if it sparks Joy. Remember, you are deciding what to keep not what to discard.
