Review

Organizing for the Spirit takes you on a journey of self-discovery that can help you find more time for what’s really important to you.” – Michelle Stanten, senior editor, Prevention Magazine

 “Will help anyone who has struggled with organization to create harmony between their possessions and their lifestyle.”– Lisa Kanarek, author, Home Office Solutions and Organizing Your Home Business

 “Sunny has provided us with a road map for self-knowledge and growth, that is as practical as it is inspirational and personal.”– Stephen C. Garbarini, clinical psychologist

Product Description

Does that sound impossible?  In Organizing for the Spirit, organizing expert Sunny Schlenger demonstrates how the “stuff” of our lives—the objects that fill our homes and offices, as well as how we manage our time (whether we are productive or procrastinating)—offers clues to what we really value in life.  With simple and practical exercises, Sunny guides you through a step-by-step process to take stock of your life, clearly identify what really matters, and then use that clarity about values and priorities as a guide to organize both your physical environment and your time.  The result is a life of meaning and harmony—in the office, the studio, the home, and beyond.  Organizing for the Spirit is nothing less than a revolutionary guidebook for creating the life you were meant to live.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, May 20, 2004
By A Customer
I just finished this book last night and it's really, really wonderful. I cried on the last page!! Nobody does that with a self-help book!!! Sunny Schlenger has created something inspirational, and the writing has Zenlike moments of lucidity that are timeless and gorgeous. If you want to think about your life in a truly new way, this is the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Birthday Present, May 16, 2004
By A Customer
This is what I call a birthday present I will give to all of my friends. Finally, someone who realizes the personal reward and power of organizing the spiritual and emotional self. This book gently guides us through our emotional investments and addictive choices, so we can manage our time better. It makes us see how the synergy of our feelings and beliefs can help us actualize our authentic self, or as Sunny Schlenger says Organizing for the Spirit. Get this book and your life will be more simple.

5.0 out of 5 stars Organizing Benefits, June 1, 2004
By Terra Wellington (A Syndicated Columnist) - See all my reviews
We've seen so many de-cluttering and organizing books over the last five years that you wouldn't think there was room for anything new. Yet, Sunny Schlenger's Organizing for the Spirit is a breath of fresh air.

Schlenger has always taken a different approach, promoting that each individual has his own organizing style and needs. Her new book helps you take stock of all aspects of your life, identify what really matters, and then set priorities. For example, you end up knowing what your stuff means to you, how it helps or hinders you, and what you can do to make that stuff be part of your personal development.

An easy read, "Organizing for the Spirit is about achieving harmony between our inner and outer selves," says the author.
