The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up
Book • 2014
In this book, Marie Kondo introduces her revolutionary KonMari Method for tidying and organizing.
Unlike traditional methods that focus on cleaning room by room or a little at a time, Kondo's approach involves categorizing items (clothes, books, papers, miscellaneous items, and sentimental items) and discarding those that do not spark joy.
The method promises lasting results by changing the way one thinks about and interacts with their possessions.
Kondo emphasizes the importance of handling each item, thanking items for their service, and finding a designated home for each item to maintain a tidy and organized space.
The book also delves into the psychological and lifestyle benefits of tidying, suggesting that it can lead to greater clarity, confidence, and a more intentional way of living.
