Home Organization:
Participants will begin by visualizing their ideal home and thinking about why they would like to get organized. The presentation will include an overview of Marie Kondo's method of organizing, tips for getting started and overcoming overwhelm, before and after photos, and time for personal goal setting. The KonMari Method® is not just about organizing your physical space but about creating a life that brings you joy and allows you time and space to do the things that matter most to you.
An Organized Workspace:
Feeling overwhelmed at work? Struggling to work from home? This program will cover topics such as creating a tidy workspace, decluttering your desk, organizing papers, and managing scheduling and calendars. Having a tidy space, keeping track of your items and creating useable to do lists can help reduce anxiety and increase productivity. Marie Kondo has a new book, "Joy at Work," which adapts her KonMari Method® of tidying to the work environment. Tidying your desk would not be complete without adding a few items to 'spark joy' while getting your work done!
Organizing Your Inner & Outer Self:
Incorporating Gratitude, Joy, and Stewardship into Organizing your Home
This workshop will include time for self-reflection and goal-setting as well as the opportunity to participate in group conversations about how we can approach home organizing from the perspective of our faith and relationship with God. We will study several Scripture verses and discuss how to apply them towards making decisions about our homes, our belongings, and our donations. This program will include an overview of the KonMari Method® of home organizing, tips for getting starting, and folding practice!
