Your Spacious Self Book Giveaway

bookcoverWhen I received a copy of Your Spacious Self: Clear Your Clutter and Discover Who You Are by Stephanie Bennett Vogt, it was just the book I needed. I knew I needed to declutter my house, not just to bring order to it, but to bring myself back into balance. If I look around and all I see is clutter, it makes me feel mentally cluttered as well.

The author of the book, Stephanie Bennett Vogt, M.A., is New England’s leading expert in the field of space clearing. Stephanie is the founder of SpaceClear, a private practice dedicated to bringing homes and their occupants back into balance.

Your Spacious Self will help you:
• Identify core beliefs that keep you stuck in old habits.
• Discover the nourishing power of “putting away every day.”
• Learn how clearing a little bit works better than binge-clearing a lot all at once.
• Experience how self care supports release (or real ease).
• Adopt a six-week clearing practice that is easy to modify to fit your needs and busy schedule.
• Start your own clutter clearing support “circle” if you so choose.
• Invite wonder, not worry, into your life.

WIN IT: I’ve got two copies of Your Spacious Self: Clear Your Clutter and Discover Who You Are to give away. For your main entry, leave a comment on this post telling me what your biggest clutter challenge is. You must do this before any extra entries will be counted.

    My biggest clutter spot is my closet. I have a tendency to put things from all the holidays and there is not order to the clothing in there. I also have yarn in there because I figure I’ll use it to knit a project at some point.

  2. DanielleC says:

    my biggest problem is keeping the underneath cubbards in my bathrooms organized…

  3. My biggest clutter challenge is paperwork. We don’t have an office (we’re in a 2 BR apartment and that room is the nursery) so we have no place for office-y papers. We have piles everywhere!

    My biggest clutter challenge is not putting things away because that would require several more steps (move this, shelve that, etc), so I just don’t do any of it.

    My biggest clutter problem is that I am by nature a pack rat. I tend to save everything, thinking it might come in useful someday. Well, if I had my own warehouse, that wouldn’t be a problem, but in my little home that means clutter. Hopefully this book will help. Thank you for the chance to win.

  34. Phyllis says:

    My biggest clutter challenge is that I am afraid to get rid of things that I might need later. Help!

  35. barbara wright says:

    Even though I know I’m not supposed to leave stuff on top of the microwave, somehow all the junk in the house gravitates to it.

    Daily paperwork. It ends up being mounds of paper to sort… which too often isn’t done in a timely way.

  39. My biggest clutter challenge is our dining room table (pathetic, I know!). The mail ends up there, and the piles just get bigger and bigger.

  40. Marianna says:

    Paper! I have tons of papers and things to file and I just can’t seem to get started. I think my mother created a packrat in me and I’m afraid to get rid of things for sentimental reasons. Sad.

  41. Carol S says:

    dresser – it is hard for me to find a happy home for papers.

  45. Benita says:

    My biggest clutter problem seems to be visible everywhere. It is really difficult for me to part with things. Everything has meaning or I may fit into it, or there’s got to be a use for it. I do try to organize, but there is more in the apartment than there is room for.

  46. Kim F says:

    My biggest clutter problem? Shoes and Paper.

  47. Erma H says:

    My biggest challenge is to where to start.

    My biggest clutter challenge is my office. I guess if I don’t deal with it, I don’t have to face the reality of it.

  59. Jay F. says:

    Our office, which is in a back room in the house, is a catch all for clutter. But the kitchen has to be the one I want to see clean first – it is what visitors would see, with piles and piles of papers.

  60. samella says:

  61. Emily says:
