Learning to Spark Joy: Using KonMari to Clear Your Home and Mind

Springfield, MA— Do your belongings “spark joy”? Are you ready to declutter your home, and your mind, but you’re not sure where to start?

Stephanie Baird, author and psychotherapist, will discuss her year-long process of decluttering while using the KonMari method as outlined in Marie Kondo’s bestselling book, The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. By following this method, Baird was able to remove 60-80 trash bags and boxes of items, and has reduced her consumption as a result of becoming more discriminating.

Join Baird as she outlines the KonMari steps with demonstration and pictures depicting efficient organization, provides resources on how to responsibly dispose of one’s items, and discuss the benefits of clearing one’s home to clear one’s mind.

This event, scheduled for November 13 from 7:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., is open to the public, and will be held at the Springfield JCC, 1160 Dickinson Street, Springfield MA. Tickets are $10, and can be reserved by calling 413-739-4715 or emailing bnadler@springfieldjcc.org with your name and phone number.

This event is co-sponsored by Strategic Alliances at Bay Path University and the WM. & Margery Sadowsky Center for Adult Learning at the Springfield JCC.
