I've got big news and you're hearing it first!
 
I'm SO incredibly excited to announce that you can now pre-order my new book Declutter Your Heart and Your Home: How a Minimalist Life Yields Maximum Joy! I wrote this book to help you clear the clutter and make room for what matters.
 
(It's officially available for preorder wherever you buy books! Be among the first to get it by ordering today at your favorite bookseller!)
 
What would your life be like with LESS stuff?
 
It's a question worth asking because the clutter in your life is not neutral.
 
A 2009 study on women showed that a cluttered environment raises their cortisol levels. AND puts their nervous systems in chronic fight-or-flight mode. Maybe you feel this way too?
 
Truth is, clutter can cause us to feel constantly overwhelmed, stressed, and anxious—simply by being in eyesight.
 
But I have great news.
 
YOU own your stuff. Your stuff doesn't own you.
 
Once I understood this, I figured out how to declutter what was weighing me down (Letting go of 75% of our physical possessions gives a lot of space to remove inner clutter).
 
And the stress, angst, and fatigue finally lifted.
 
Clutter is an energy thief, stealing your = time and presence. It's distracting you from the most important things in your life—relationships, especially communion with God.
 
But guess what? It does not have to.
 
You can put your clutter in its place. I wrote this book to show you how!
