Strategies, Inspiration, and Motivation to Create a Clutter-Free Life. In November of 2005, Kathi J. Miller of the Clutter-Free Life began a monthly newsletter, the Clutter Coach Success Secrets, for her clients and the people who attended her speeches and classes. She wanted to inspire and motivate them to keep working on their clutter. And she was frustrated with the endless flow of publicity on the use of bins and baskets which just create more stuff! She wanted to provide real solutions that anyone could implement. Solutions that would lead to life-long habits that create and maintain a clutter-free life. People with clutter are often perfectionists and procrastinators. Hence, the numerous admonitions to bypass perfectionism and prompts to take immediate action! This book is a compilation of her best insight into the causes of clutter and her most practical advice on how to deal with it. It’s divided into five sections. The first is a month-by-month journey through one year. Start in the current month and do the exercises for each month. A year from now, you’ll have less clutter and the skills to maintain a clutter-free life. The second section is two short stories about two co-workers from different backgrounds and their approaches to work-related events. The third and fourth sections are newsletters that represent the two ways to deal with clutter: change your mind about your belongings and change your behavior with respect to your belongings. The final section is a tribute to her mother who is largely responsible for her clutter-free life habits and attitudes. Start anywhere in the book. Start in the area of your life that’s easiest for you and work up to the more challenging stuff. The most important part is that you begin!
If you are interested in this book, you’re probably in a similar situation as I find myself. I’m a baby boomer who is helping to care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. In my case, it’s my 94-year old mother. How we may differ is that I’m also a grief and relationship coach, and I have had experience helping people deal with difficulties brought on by change and loss. Of course, it’s a lot easier to offer assistance to others than to put these same suggestions to use in your own life. However, I try my best. In fact, that’s why I’ve written this book. It’s to constantly remind me about how I can best respond to my own difficult situation. The words of assistance, comfort and inspiration contained within these pages cannot make your parents well again. However, your power lies in how you choose to respond to their illness and failing health issues. This book provides you with concrete suggestions on how to handle common situations you will encounter. Additionally, it offers you an alternate perspective on how to view your changing circumstances as you become the parent and your parent the child.

There is a lot going on in the world today, and spiritual leaders are needed more than ever. People are searching for the meaning of life and their Purpose, but are being turned off by organized religion. There are people protesting the funerals of fallen soldiers, and condemning unwed mothers and anyone who doesn’t live up to seemingly impossible standards, all in the name of religion. This is causing conflict in the minds of people about who God is, and whether He is a Being of condemnation or one of love. Many people think they need to clean up their lives, and become pristine and perfect before they come to God and that is simply untrue. In this book, Christy shares insights and quotes from Spiritual Leaders who have impacted millions of people around the world with their messages of love, acceptance and forgiveness. Her goal is to promote wholeness and self-love through a relationship with God. This book is for anyone who wants to know how to apply Biblical principles to their everyday life. It’s in plain language, not scriptural, and shares lessons that other leaders have learned along their journeys of life. If you want to know what leaders have struggled with in their lives, and how they are being used by God to serve others, this book is for you!
