Drawing on the success of her first book, Creating Sacred Space with Feng Shui, Karen Kingston has met popular demand by expanding on the indispensable activity of clearing clutter. There is very little of actual Feng Shui here, and certainly nothing you can't get elsewhere, but the clutter problem gets full and complete treatment. Kingston reminds us that clutter is stuck energy that keeps you stuck in undesirable life patterns. Therefore, you can "sort out your life by sorting out your junk." Kingston covers the reasons we keep things as well as the amazing stories of people who have cleared their clutter away. More than just junk, clutter is all those things that have negative symbology and that collect stagnant energy. This latter can also apply to bodily, emotional, and spiritual clutter, all of which Kingston describes with characteristic passion. In an age of accumulation, it's good to see a book that frees up life again.

Organizing consultants come and go, so it's a treat to hear one whose ideas are presented so clearly and with so many thoughtful suggestions that she rises above the status of a commodity. Clutter is the manifestation of negative inner states such as am-biguous purpose, unfinished emotional business, negative family traditions, and conflict with others. But unlike psychotherapy where you do the inner work first, with this approach you organize first and then look at what your reactions tell you about yourself. Down to earth, remarkably practical, and delivered with charming sincerity and conviction, this is an almost certain cure for any clutter addict who listens to the whole program.
