The Method
Keeping What You Love – Saying “Yes” with Confidence
The KonMari Method is a simple yet effective way of tidying that uses a unique criterion: choosing what sparks joy. You're not deciding what to toss out but instead selecting only the items that speak to your heart. It is thorough, with a joy-check for every single item you own. Through tidying, you can reset your life and surround yourself with the people and things you love most.
Most tidying methods suggest tackling a room at a time or doing little by little, which can lead to endless hours spent decluttering and organizing. The KonMari Method encourages tidying by category – not by location – in this order:
Clothes
Books
Papers
Komono (miscellaneous items)
Sentimental items
The KonMari Difference
An Invitation to the Konmari Experience—Unhurried and Thoughtful
I flew to London this year to attend the highly anticipated in-person KonMari certification course, which is offered only once a year. As a Consultant-in-Training, I am completing a training program designed by Marie Kondo herself. Based on Japanese philosophy, my tidying sessions and packages follow Marie’s method and are intended to help you bring more intention and joy into your home and life.
