This book is a fabulous tool for anyone who develops attachments with their belongings and has a hard time deciding what to get rid of. Mary Lambert's book taught me to be in control of my stuff, rather than letting my stuff be in control of me. Following the suggestions in her book, my home has transformed, and in turn, so has a part of myself. Since I have followed the "clutter-clearing" tips she offers, I feel a giant weight lifted off my shoulders. It is a very liberating feeling to be turned from a "pack-rat" into a "clutter-combator". I highly recommend this book!

This is a great book. The techniques described are easy to do, and fairly quick as well. It teaches you about everyday things to ease your stress. You'll learn interesting facts, such as how painting your bathroom green can help with digestion (I know, I was amazed too)! I reccommend this book to everyone, even the clean freaks, because we can all use a little relaxation in our lives.

this book was amazing it tought me to get rid of all my clutter my nick name used to be pack rat but now people are asking how i did it when people walk in my room they do not want to leave it just makes the spirit come out ...i will be engoying feng shui.

This is a bite-sized portion of feng-shui, presented in a visually-appealing way. First, it describes how to analyze your living space in order to see which part of it is about family, which area is about work, which area is about relationships etc.. (there are 8 areas).

Then, it sets that aside basically, and looks at each type of room. For the hallway, for instance, it has 2 diagrams: bad energy flow and good energy flow. Then it describes in detail the particular types of accumulations that tend to build up in hallways, and the ways in which those accumulations generate energy gridlock. And it gives examples of positive organizations for a typical hallway, in which the energy can flow freely. It provides cures for typical energy traps. And even gives optimal colors etc.. for each type of room.

The specificity provided in the book is very useful!

contains important principles that are not often stressed enough in other feng shui books. That is the clearing of clutter to improve the chi of an area. It does not contain a lot of information about colors, or the use of certain types of objects as contained in other books. So this book should mainly be used as a supplement to other feng shui books.
This is not the best nor comprehensive feng shui book out there, but it is still a very good book on the subject of clutter, and has definately improved the contemporary feel of my place.

This book is excellent in every way. It arrived on time and is like new. I can't wait to get started cleaning out all the junk I have accumulated.

I read this book and a similar book back in March 2002. The end of the year is near and many positive changes have happened in my life. Even though I wasn't looking for a job change, I was contacted by a headhunter for a new job that included more money; took a 3 week vacation to Australia during my transition; bought a new car and just closed escrow on a new condo. I certainly didn't think I needed a total change in my life when I read the book. The concepts simply made perfect sense and I was open to what the universe would bring me.
