Today’s KonMari Quick Tips episode is all about tracking habits that spark joy.
Tidying is a self-care activity. But, unlike heading to the spa or grabbing a box of chocolates, your KonMari tidying event is intentionally a bit uncomfortable, launching you into a layered growth journey that extends well beyond your closet.
This is where habit tracking comes in! Once you’ve tidied A-Z, literally making thousands of decisions about all of your greatest treasures, you officially enter maintenance mode.
Post-KonMari is the perfect time to start to take a more critical look at the behaviors that lie beneath the clutter. This includes both good and bad habits you’ve accumulated over time.
We want to hear from you. Tell us your burning tidying questions or share stories about how KonMari has impacted your life.
Head over to Apple podcasts to subscribe and review the show, which helps us reach others along their tidying journeys.
To extend your tidying experience, you can join the Spark Joy Club!
