 "The Clutter Fix," by Shannon Acheson

Create the Organized Home and Life You've Always Longed For

Living in a disorganized, cluttered home can leave you feeling chaotic, anxious, and even depressed. You want a change, but you don't know where to begin.

Home coach Shannon Acheson is here to help. She has written the only book you'll ever need to get your entire home sorted and organized for good--in a way that makes sense for you and your family's unique, God-given personalities.

In The Clutter Fix, Shannon helps you

· win the battle with all of your stuff by following her step-by-step instructions and checklists

· discover your Clutter Personality and your Organizing Personality

· create rhythms and routines to keep your home decluttered

Clutter isn't just about the stuff. It's about how you feel in your home--and in your mind. This book will give you the peaceful dwelling you've always hoped for.

I am not a fan of "reading" non-fiction books, but thought I would give this a go.  I do like how every area of your home is dealt with.  There are sections/ideas for those of you who are strapped for time; for example the 10 minute declutter.  Everyone can find ten minutes in their day.

I liked the suggestions for donating things; I even looked up and contacted a couple in our area, about things I had to donate.  I have not read every page of this book, but picked and chose bits and bobs which I thought I needed help with.

There are places in the book (worksheets) which asks you questions and where you can write down answers and figure out what/where you need help with.

Stars out of 5 : 4 it's a good book to have on hand.  Not one I would turn to on a daily basis, but one when I am in a cleaning/decluttering phase would be handy to read.  The only thing I didn't get was the religious side of things?  I don't see how that works in with this book?  I do agree though that having a cluttered, untidy house does affect your mood.
