I had to clean out my brother's house after he suddenly died of a heart attack. and it made me realize that I don't won't to keep so many things around, it was very cathartic and I am thankful for the experience. we in general keep too much stuff around and I think it's a very good concept to think about things the way the swedish do.

I think it's a great idea and something we can all keep in mind no matter what our age (death is unpredictable). Everything we accumulate is something that needs to be discarded later and I don't want to leave an excess of that work to my kids. ❤️

This will be an interesting series for Amy Poehler and I hope it can give some good life skills and show kindness to those dealing their own or someone else's things. I checked out the The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning book from my local library. It's an easy read and everyone over age 50 should be required to read it. I'm in my mid 20's and after losing both sets of grands, uncles and both of my parents, having to deal with all their stuff...know it's alright to just take your favorites. You can always photograph, scan and sell or donate the rest.

I would be so much better at cleaning, if Amy Poehler narrated while I did it

This is such a great show, I watch it when I am at the gym. Some episodes are absolutely hilarious and others are incredibly emotional. The end resultsare beautiful. Everyone shouldld watch it. Immediately after my mom caught a glance of the show while I was watching it she got obsessed and binged every episode. Then she even went on to death clean herself. She completed one room so far and we will go through the rest in the coming weeks.

My mom is doing this right now here in Sweden. Just dumping all her stuff that she feels she doesn’t need on younger family members 😂😂😂

I've been doing it for a year after reading the small little book. I LOVE getting my house decluttered. So rewarding. Also, I now work for estate sales. I am embarrassed about what we Americans keep. Useless, wasteful belongings. We could have educated an entire African village with the money wasted on stuff left behind in homes selling for a 1/10 of what it was originally purchased. Items that one thinks will always hold a value is basically worth pennies on the dollar. What a waste of good money.

In 2023 I can't imagine anyone anyone well at least any woman who hasn't heard of this that's over the age of 40, it's been around for awhile. I know I am on a mission, I moved and brought too much and now I'm having to go through Phase 2 and I think even those of us who believe in minimalist can have a hard time getting rid of things.

@dianeyoung8068 Жыл бұрын

Get rid of all those journals, if you don't want your family to know everything you ever thought. Don't leave all your stuff for your family to deal with and have a quality of life in a clean environment.

After reading the book last year and giving it to a close friend in need of some help decluttering her parent's home, I feel surprised and sorry that Amy never mentioned or gave credit to the author, Margareta Magnusson, who wrote the book, The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning. What's up with that??

@UrsulaPowers Жыл бұрын

Go back and listen. She mentioned the book. Stop making the author a VICTIM.

I am a swede and I adviced my mom to declutter their life because it is selfish to keep so many things for others to clean up after your gone.. and my mm is born in the 40s and that generation where all children of people during the war so they hoard and can't get rid of things..
