One of the most popular methods to declutter your space is the ‘Swedish Death Cleaning’ method Inspired by Margareta Magnusson’s book The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.
Döstädning — death cleaning is designed for those later in life, it involves removing all non-essential items to simplify the elderly’s lives.
DEATH CLEANING DECLUTTERING
Death cleaning is not about dusting or cleaning, it’s about simplifying your space with little to no friction. The idea is that by going through your things you determine what is truly important in your life.
Swedish Death Cleaning Rules –
- Declutter starting with larger items, then eliminating smaller items.
- Save small sentimental items for last.
- Basements and attics are good starting points as most of the clutter in our lives collects here.
- Whenever possible, discard any duplicates, but keep what makes life ‘pleasant and comfortable’. Remember, simplifying your space also makes you feel more serene and tranquil.
Decluttering can be stressful. Remind yourself as you go through the process that the end result brings a sense of tranquility. Your world is now an organized, clean space.
Swedish Death Cleaning can help declutter and organize anyone’s life, at any age. It’s not really about your age or death, döstädning is about making room for what is important in your life.
