“I have significantly less stress in my life and more self-control. Most importantly, I’m becoming more like the mom and wife I want to be.” — Caryn Seney
Becoming Minimalist is a website that reaches people from every walk of life—those who are living a minimalist life, those who are just discovering it, and those who are in the process of achieving it.
I have talked and emailed with many of you. And I know the process is easier for some than others.
There are many reading this blog who desire to live a minimalist life, but are struggling to achieve it. You want to own less, but you’re not sure where to start. Uncluttered was created specifically for you—and it’s one of the most important things I do at Becoming Minimalist.
Uncluttered
Uncluttered is a 12-week online course designed intentionally to help you own less, live more, and discover the life you’ve always wanted.
50,000 people, from all over the world, have used the principles to declutter their home and life, and you can too.
I only offer the course three times each year and I’m excited to start the New Year’s Edition in just a few days. I started the course back in 2016 and have just recorded all new videos for 2021.
But registration ends Sunday, January 17.
The course includes…
- Videos with step-by-step instructions
- Interviews with leaders in productivity and minimalism
- Live webinars tackling specific clutter topics
- Live Q&As for members to ask me questions
- 24/7 interaction and motivation
- Weekly challenges
- And perhaps best of all: accountability and encouragement from a super-engaged community
Every Monday, you receive a video from me, an exclusive interview with one of the brightest minds in the simplicity movement, and/or written content prepared exclusively for the course. You will receive a weekly challenge to complete and opportunities to engage with the community in a private Facebook group. Also, join me live during group webinars and interactive question and answer opportunities.
At the end of 12 weeks, you will have decluttered every lived-in area of your home, and changed your shopping habits going forward.
The course offers everything a book or blog post cannot: community, accountability, specific challenges, and weekly opportunity to ask me questions and connect.
Family Resources
If you have a family, we provide extra helpful resources to help you navigate that, because I know it can be tough.
There is a section of resources including a family-specific webinar to answer your questions, a free Children’s ebook to read with your kids, and a Couple’s Discussion Guide to spark conversation with your spouse or partner.
Also, if you sign up for this current edition of the course, I’ll give you a free PDF copy of my book, Clutterfree with Kids for free.
More than anything else, I want you to be successful during this 12-week course and will provide every resource we can to help you do that.
The Details
The course begins on Tuesday, January 19. Registration is open now, but ends on January 17.
The cost is $89 (USD). But you can find a 25% off discount code in the back of The Minimalist Home: A Room-by-Room Guide to a Decluttered, Refocused Life. The book is not required—but can be helpful. And it’s cheaper to buy the book and use the discount code than it is to pay full price—the option is yours.
I am personally involved in every aspect of the course. Helping people live more by owning less is what I am passionate about. I host the webinars. I answer questions in the Facebook group. And I host live video chats. I have come to understand how essential community, accountability, and ongoing encouragement is for people. And I work hard to craft that culture for the Uncluttered Course. Like I said, this is one of the most important things I do.
When you join Uncluttered, you’ll receive lifetime access to the course. That means you can take it as many times as you want (or need). I know life can be busy, and the unexpected can happen at any time. But we’re here to help you succeed. And if you ever want to do the course again, or just enjoy a decluttering refresher, you’ll be welcomed back.
So stop letting guilt and overwhelm stand in your way. The home you want is less than 12 weeks away. And if there was ever a time to take back control of your life, this is it!

I understand there will be a Facebook group as a support group during the process. Is the entire course on Facebook? I don’t have an account and I don’t want to sign up for one. I understand that it may limit the group support aspect, but I am still interested in the course.

There is no course content delivered on Facebook.

Hi Joshua,
I signed up for the January 2021 Uncluttered course and at the bottom it mentions a free e-book about i cluttering with kids. When do we get that?can’t see it in the email. Thanks! Looking forward to your course!
joshua becker says
You can find that book (and several other resources) on the Family Resources page of the Uncluttered website after logging-in.
Mary Kaisler says
Hi, I have a couple of questions. In order to get the 25% discount, do I have to buy the hardcopy or can I buy the digital version? Also, do you offer a discount for being a Simplify Magazine subscriber, as I do subscribe to your magazine.
Thanks,
Mary
joshua becker says
You can find the discount code in both the physical and ebook version of my books, The Minimalist Home or The More of Less.
Simplify Magazine is different.
Lee says
I have the audible version. Does that count toward the discount and if so, where would the code be located? Thanks
Kate says
I don’t live in the US. Will that make a difference for me when it comes to live videos and question and answers videos?
joshua becker says
Nope. The course materials are released each week on Monday morning. Participants log-in at a time convenient for them.
Margarita says
Will the course help me deal with emotional baggage attached to the items? I’m in my early 60’s and my husband and I have lived in the same house for 30+ years. I’ve just recently come out of a very long season of hands on caregiving (aging parents, in-laws) and suddenly find myself as an empty nester as well, but with a house full of stuff from every other house I’ve had to empty while settling estates. Not to mention all the stuff left behind by our kids. I find myself getting easily overwhelmed. My husband is still very busy with work so he would not be necessarily joining in the study himself.
I had already determined I was not going to buy yet another book this new year…and here I go thinking I should buy this one and join the study. One thing is for sure—I don’t want my kids to end up having to go through so much stuff when I’m gone!
joshua becker says
Yes, my guess is you will find the course life-changing. And I truly mean that.
Jan says
Same boat here, so many family estate “valuable” things vs “emotional”, or wait, which are they and how do I get hem out of here?
Sharon Todd says
Happy New Year!
I have a the same question as a couple others. I have paid and taken the course previously. How can I register for the class beginning Jan 19th?
With gratitude
Angeleck Nance says
I would like to access my lifetime membership to take the course again. How do I do that?
Thanks for what you are doing!
joshua becker says
Yup, you can sign back up for the course emails by visiting the Course Resources page after logging-in to the Uncluttered website. That sign-up form is available at any point now or in the future for you to jump back in.
Debbi says

Cyndy Dowling says
How do I exercise my lifetime access benefits?
I have paid taken the course before, I would like to participate again.
Karen says
Is there anyway I can partially join. Read info when time allows and get motivated for what I will be doing later. Being TBI this is the way I’m more able to achieve goal.
Rebecca Huston says
I have taken your course before, supposedly with lifetime access. Can I still register for your current class?
Stan Johnson says
