I find that removing clutter intentionally and with respect allows people to breathe deeply, many for the first time in years. I've observed that the removal of clutter is directly tied to the increase in life energy (Qi). Some of my clients get so energized after an organized session that they're up for hours continuing the work with great gobs of energy and excitement. Organizing is much more than going to a container store and buying plastic boxes! I’m a professional organizer and feng shui practitioner.

Sometimes just having some fresh eyes looking at your space is all you need, others need a little more hand holding. Costs vary depending on these needs and your resolve to kick the chaos and clutter to the curb once and for all. Hope that helps!

But I have often wondered about what kind of cost is involved. I suspect it would be worth it to have a problem solver and neutral person help.
