idying is not about minimalism, nor about having a Pinterest perfect house, or an Insta-worthy lifestyle.
Tidying is about getting rid of the stuff that holds you back so that you have time to do the things that you love.

There are 6 main rules to The Marie Kondo Method:
1. Commit to Tidying. Many people want to get Tidy, but they lose momentum halfway through. If you can’t have, or don’t want, a Professional Organiser to help, then finding an accountability partner, like a friend, can be really helpful. There are also plenty of groups on Facebook where you can find help and support with others doing the same. 2. Create your Vision. What you would like your life to look like? Imagine you were able to wave a magic wand and have everything as you would like it. What would your home look like? How would your day go? What would it feel like to open a wardrobe full of things that you love? A strong and detailed vision is a powerful tool for decision making.
