Spacious Home, Spacious Life
WELCOME Home to Your Spacious Self

Clearing from the inside out is our specialty; Stephanie's free 30-day email series is a great place to start! Your clearing is everyone's clearing: When you tend your home …

What Home Means to Me
Homes are not just these empty boxes that we fill with collections of stuff, life experiences, and unique personalities. They are alive and dynamic places that respond directly to our attentiveness (and lack of it). Our homes and workplaces are extensions of us: they affect us, reflect us, support us. There is no separation... It doesn’t take much for me to feel at home. Give me a comfy chair, surround me with beautiful objects, simmer …

Goldie Hawn is Pure Gold on Letting Go
I am a big fan of Oprah's Master Class on her OWN Channel – now in its second season.
Goldie Hawn, who we all think of as the adorable pixie star from Laugh In and Private Benjamin, reveals her true deep soulful Goddess self in her Master Class message about happiness and letting go. If you can find it and watch the whole thing it will be worth your hour.
If you can't find it, here's a short video clip (excerpted below) in which she shares her wisdom about parenting and letting go.
Letting go is letting go. Whether you are a parent …

Clearing Redefined: It’s Not About Fixing or Forcing
Clearing at its best is not about the "doing" at all.
As I see it, it's not about the issue that challenges you (or the desired outcome for that matter).
It's not about about tackling the boxes of who-knows-what mildewing in the basement, the mountains of store catalogues teetering your desk, or the clothes that don't fit.
It’s not about managing the despair you feel over the dishes that no one bothers to put away, the to-do lists that get longer by the second, or the fact that you have zero time for your self.
Clearing is not …

“Clear Your Home, Clear Your Life” Launches on DailyOM
It's a jungle… in here!
Most of us do too much, or have more possessions than we need or use. Or both. With our lives swept up in a swirl of attachments, worry, and endless, mechanical "doing," our minds become fuzzy on what stays and what goes, what matters and what doesn't. As humans it is in our nature to experience clarity and spaciousness all the time. The problem is we lose focus, get off balance, and forget how.
So how do we dial it back – or even begin – to reduce the noise, release the stuff that doesn't serve and support …

Explosions of Good
There's a word for it: Eucatastrophe. Though it's not the prettiest word to say or look at, I love the concept.
"Eucatastrophes are sudden, unexpected, but perfectly logical- in-hindsight explosions of good."–Author unknown
Eucatastrophe is a term coined by J. R. R. Tolkien which refers to the sudden turn of events at the end of a story which ensure that the protagonist does not meet some terrible, impending, and very plausible doom. He formed the word by affixing the Greek prefix eu, meaning good, to catastrophe, the word …

A Good Day, Every Day
Another gem of a TEDx Talk. Watch it and see if it doesn't help you feel more spacious. Happy new year everyone!
"Nature’s beauty can be easily missed -- but not through Louie Schwartzberg’s lens. His stunning time-lapse photography, accompanied by powerful words from Benedictine monk David Steindl-Rast, serves as a meditation on being grateful for every day."–TED

Wabi Sabi Wins: Finding Beauty in Life’s Imperfections
"Teach me old woods to wither glad." –Swedish author unknown.
If you've been following my clearing messages, or read my book, you've probably heard me say that when it comes to successful clearing, we need to shift our focus away from the problem.
The magic and ultimate success in clearing is not found in "fixing" the overwhelming piles, the endless to-do lists, the insane amount of stress... or whatever your challenge happens to be.
Clearing is not about the problem (nor the solution, for that matter), but how we relate to …

Create a Story Board: Dream Big, Map it Out, Attract
Oprah calls it a "Story Board." I've also heard it called a vision board or an ideal image poster.
Whatever you want to call it, creating a beautiful collage that combines everything you could ever hope and dream for is a total blast! And no better time than the present time.
If you could use a little help getting started, there's a free online template on Oprah's OWN website here. If you're already a member of Oprah.com, you'll be asked to log in to get started. If you're not a member of Oprah.com yet, you'll be asked to join for …
