Don't you find that when your home is organized your calm is returned? I always say: ORDER IN MY HOUSE...ORDER IN MY SOUL. It's as if you can center down and get clear when your surroundings are in order. And yet I hear from HUNDREDS of women about how out of control their lives feel. When I dig a little deeper, it's clear that their physical surroundings perfectly reflect their state of mind: OUT OF CONTROL.
I was interviewed recently for a segment on a soon to be released new program for HGTV. I worked with a family who felt as if they were not connected and wanted the balance I write about in my book BUSY BUT BALANCED. One of the key connectors we talked about was having family meals. They were eating on the run, literally. When I visited their home it was clear why...their kitchen table was piled with papers, mail, old toys, their monthly planner, and one sad looking lazy Susan. Simply clearing the clutter from the "heart of the home" their kitchen table -- allowed them the space to even consider eating a meal together.
