De-Clutter, De-stress Your Life, 28 Oct 2002

As a busy mother of two, I find there is no time to relax and enjoy life. This book is about simplicity and the freedom you can gain from it. It's about paring down "things" and stop worrying about "things". It's step by step is easy to follow and you soon realize how much time you were wasting on the clutter in your house. Nothing makes me happier than walking into rooms once filled with old junk, drawers that wouldn't close because of old paperwork, or closets that I couldn't sqeeze another shirt into and seeing an organized, easy to live-in space. It definitely helps lower stress levels.

A book to get you off the couch, 18 Jan 2008
By Kathy the Writer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: De-Clutter, De-Stress Your Life (Paperback)
OK, I'd rather read about de-cluttering than actually do the work. But this is one book that inspired me to stop thinking and start DOING. Helen starts with her own story, guides us gently (but firmly) to confront the whys and wherefores, and get us moving - in an enjoyable, non-threatening, effective way. I thought that throwing things out made me wasteful - but hoarding when others are needy is far worse. Now, five words I never thought I'd say: you should see my kitchen!

I like to use this book with some of my clients, because of the integral worksheets, and the step-by-step problem solving. Its nice having the questions & the answers all in one place, so they're less likely to be lost.
Helen's breezy, upbeat style makes for an uplifting read, which can be helpful to clients who are feeling overwhelmed by their stuff.
