Product Description
From Amazon
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.

First Sentence
I once met a woman who set off traveling around the planet with little more than the ticket to her first destination in her pocket, but she had one extraordinary skill-the ability to read people's palms-and no matter where she went, she was never short of a place to sleep or food to eat.

This Book Helped Me,
This review is from: Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui (Paperback)
Whether or not you are a practioner or believer in Feng Shui, this book is helpful. It's easy to read and makes you think. I have read it more than once and having lent it out on more than one occasion, find myself having to repurchase it because the people I lend it to love it so much. It is a good book to get you started in clearing out the clutter in your home & in your life. I didn't jump right in and create a perfect world for myself. But I did take the lessons to heart and started off slowly. I came to realize that my stuff was controlling me instead of the other way round. When I allowed myself to look at my belongings the way Ms. Kingston suggests, I was finally able to start clearing my home of the un-needed stuff & low energy. I have been working on this for a year now. And everytime I go through a certain part of my home, even if it is just to dust, I clear out even more. (I originally started as a way to eliminate dust collectors due to allergies). It has even helped me curb my spending habits. I need less space to live in now and have managed to tackle some other things that needed doing to help myself emotionally & physically. This book isn't a cure all, but it is a great way to get jumpstarted. I now keep more than 1 copy to give out to anyone who expresses an interest in how I helped myself find a better way of life.

This review is from: Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui (Paperback)
This book is not about feng shui. It is simply about decluttering your household (and your body, for those of you who are prepared to read about colon cleansing) from the perspective of a feng shui practitioner. If you want a book about feng shui, get something else.I am always highly suspicious of any book that gets "This changed my life" reviews. I find the more people write glowing categorical reviews of that nature, the more others feel the need to slam what's being reviewed and call it useless. When you open a book expecting miracles, you'll get disappointed. That being said: Personally, I couldn't put this book down. I hadn't planned to buy something like this (I generally avoid self-help books), but when I thumbed through it in the bookstore I was hooked. I kept finding myself and my situation in what she was writing about. Having finished it, I've started to tackle some of the clutter that's sat around my apartment for months. The author walks her talk, and is quite readable. There were a couple of grammatical issues I thought a good proofreader would catch ("disorientating" in the place of "disorienting", for example), and I do feel that the chapter on bodily health insisted too much on fasting and colon cleansing for the context of the book, and should have been seriously pared down or cut entirely. This book addresses homes, and the health of the body is a subject requiring several books of its own. But if you're feeling depressed by the clutter in your life, and your problem is not so much time as motivation to make a change, this book could be very useful for you. I know I'm keeping my copy.
