Announcing Declutter Happy Hour!

18 March 2009

Recently, I’ve been blogging quite a bit about how hard it can be to get rid of clutter, not just because it’s hard work that’s difficult to find the time to do, but because of emotional barriers to the work, or unhelpful beliefs that get in the way.

In the poll I ran on the blog this week which allowed readers to vote for their emotional barriers to getting organized, “Overwhelm” was the top vote-getter. The next most popular reason was “Avoidance.”

I get it. I think when you view the work as a big drag that will take forever to accomplish, when it feels like there’s no way you can get it done on your own or you don’t know where to start, you become paralyzed. It’s easier to go do something (anything) else.

If you can identify with this, I have great news for you. Life coach Shannon Wilkinson and I are offering an exciting new teleclass called Declutter Happy Hour.

Shannon is a certified hypnotherapist and master NLP practitioner. I’ve been using her services for years and she’s helped me get past emotional barriers to some pretty major things. She does it with fun exercises that we do together over the phone. (She lives in Portland, Oregon.)

We’ve decided to team up to help people get rid of both their emotional clutter—the negative emotions that get in the way of dealing with physical clutter—and the actual clutter in their space.

Declutter Happy Hour is comprised of four teleclasses on four consecutive Tuesday afternoons, starting March 31. They’ll be recorded, with recordings available to class participants the following day, so if you’re not available during the class time, you can still benefit.

During the classes, we’ll go through exercises to clear emotional clutter. We’ll identify areas of clutter in your space that you want to address. We’ll discuss techniques to do that. Then, while Shannon and I remain on the phone line in case you have questions, you’ll hang up and declutter for a half hour. We’ll reconvene and set goals for the coming week.

There are so many great benefits:

• You set aside time in your week to actually deal with clutter
• You actually deal with the emotions — and the techniques are fun
• You get to work with two experts for a fraction of the cost of working with us privately
• You learn techniques and tools that will help you long after the class is over
• You can stop letting clutter get in the way of living

Right now, the four-week class is being offered at the early-bird price of only $99. On Sunday, it goes up to $129. There are a limited number of premium add-on packages for an additional $129 that will get you hour-long private phone sessions with Shannon and with me.

Just go to Declutter Happy Hour to sign up via PayPal. It’s a great first step toward taking control of your clutter, rather than letting it control you.
