declutter your mind

The clutter in our homes and in our minds are often bound together tightly like a knot, and one affects the other. A holistic approach to organizing is about considering our mental, physical and spiritual health and how it might contribute to our clutter. Because often, lasting change goes deeper than just figuring out what to do with our stuff. Learn to clear your mind of clutter, and to live more intentionally.

space

organize your home

Our home should be our sanctuary; it should be a place of rest and inspiration, not of frustration and chaos. By creating space and order within our home, we enable energy to flow through it. We are affected by that energy, whether we are aware of it or not. Outer order creates inner peace because it helps us to feel more in control. Make space and find a place for everything in your home.

{It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Laura Coufal from Clean & Clutter Free. I am a busy, working mom and organization is not easy for me. She came into my home and diligently worked to help get my entire home organized in a way that works for my family and me. She continues to come in monthly for upkeep and I look forward to her arrival every time. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional–so much so, that I entrusted her to help one of my dear friends move into her new home and continue to recommend her. Laura always does a phenomenal job. She has, without a doubt, improved the quality of my life.

{When I hired Laura, I didn’t have huge expectations. I just needed help sorting through 26 years of saved stuff so that we can move out of town. Three Salvation Army truck donations later, I can see the walls and floor of my storage room again. Laura taught me how to let things go, as well as how to organize the saved stuff on shelves. Laura works very fast so she doesn’t waste her time with you. She’s very professional and knowledgeable. She’s also an extremely nice person who I look forward to working with every week. The daunting task that I procrastinated about for years turned out to actually be fun with Laura.

{I recently hired Laura to help my mom downsize for her move into an assisted living facility. Going from a spacious 2-bedroom apartment to a very small one-bedroom apartment required some letting go and Laura was right there every step of the way helping mom make those tough choices. She is very punctual, friendly, & compassionate. She really made mom’s transition as smooth and painless as possible. I highly recommend Laura!

I am Laura

Years ago, I realized that I have a natural knack for keeping the things in my life really simple. This need for simplicity developed due to my ADHD and the tendency for me to become overwhelmed easily. But my need for simplicity serves me well, and as a result, I stay organized and on top of things. So my limitations and my gifts are ironically tied together, giving me the ability to help others find peace and order in their lives. With a B. A. in Psychology. I have several years of work experience with families and seniors and can support you in reaching your goals. I also have additional coarse work in interior design, so if your desire is for me to transform your space without lifting a finger, I can do that too. I have been helping others get organized since 2013.

It is my deepest hope that you will find resources here that will bring you closer to living a simpler, more intentional, and more peaceful life.
