Editorial Review:
When Peter Walsh, organizational guru of TLC's hit show Clean Sweep and a regular contributor to The Oprah Winfrey Show, appeared on national television shows and told people how they could reclaim their lives from the suffocating burden of their clutter, the response was overwhelming. People flooded Peter's website (www.peterwalshdesign.com) with success stories about how his book had changed their lives.
Peter's unique approach helped people everywhere learn to let go of the emotional and psychological clutter that was literally and figuratively choking the life out of their homes.
With his good humor and reassuring advice, Peter shows you how to face the really big question: What is the vision for the life you want to live? He then offers simple techniques and a step-by-step plan to assess the state of your home, prioritize your possessions, and let go of the clutter you have been holding on to that has kept you from living the life you imagine. The result is freed-up space, less stress, and more energy for living a happier, richer life every day.

Great Book
The book has been a great help in me getting things in order around the house and in my life. I saw the author on Oprah and something about his approach clicked with me. He approaches clutter from a deeper, psychological aspect and tells how clutter is a reflection of and influencer of our mental/psychological states. I'm not clutter-free yet, but I'm well on my way.
It's all too much
This is a great book. I highly recommend it. I purchased it after a recent Oprah show on hoarding. Peter Walsh gets to the root of the problem of keeping too much and how to deal with it. It is helping me.
