Me, sitting in my black hole of a room, watching this video, wondering if the toothbrush I got from the dentist 4 years ago sparks joy

I've noticed that I feel "better" when my house is neat and clean. Maybe the positive "energies" is a direct result of decluttering too.

What I find most interesting about her & her method is how much she developed the method based off of living in Japan and working with her Japanese clients, but how much it almost seems like we need it even more here in the US. Some things don't change no matter your culture.

saying 'thank you' to items i'm giving away to send someone else joy

Does this item spark jOy?!! 😂 I love that. 😂 and when she thanks the items and throws them out. "Thank you! You have served your purpose!"

Our English teacher gave us an article to summarize about Marie Kondo and she recommended us to watch a video about her at home, which is why I'm here. So, thank you for this video! :)

I started folding my shirts and pants the way that Marie Kondo does it! I like that method! 😄❤

The point that if the item sparks joy , is my favourite . Before I thought if I can ever use or need this item.

Lovely I stumbled here as I tried to clean up my room. I am 59 years old and wow I love it

People are usually all default in a particular way. It's funny how when we actively try to find the best way to live, even if we are different from each other, usually arrive at the same answer. Asking yourself "does this spark joy?" is just like minimalism. Keeping the things that have value to you close and discarding the rest.

I've got a 4 day weekend starting tomorrow, I'm going to tackle my room!

This is the first time I saw the person behind the voice, and I am so not used to this experience! haha!

My favorite part is to keep things that bring me joy. What a wonderful concept, to have joyful things around me 24/7. Thank you for this simple thought and way to enjoy my life better. God bless you.

I'm in trouble!.. I just threw all my work papers away!!! 🤣 But gonna try this on my house.. Seems like a great idea. 👍

Love her space-saving clothes folding methods which allow you to see what you have.

I tried her folding method and it does save room. However, I never makes the clothes stand up when they are stored on shelves because they always fall over when I pull a shirt or pant out. I prefer to stack. Now if I can only get into the habit of actually putting my clothes away as so as I pull them out of the laundry rather than placing them on my dresser and let them sit there for a few days before I get tired of seeing them there and then actually put them away.

Just goes to show how unfair the world is ...in the developed world we are drowning in possessions ...the result of a materialist lifestyle.”I must have...I want...I gotta buy’. Other parts of the world have just subsistence lifestyles. Whether it’s Feng Shui, Konmari.....or whatever.....if we weren’t so bloody greedy we wouldn’t need to declutter in the first place.

I almost understood what you said. Very nice explaination. Thanks

I know this disagrees with standard Japanese dictionaries, but I would say that tokimeku also has the meaning of sparkle, in addition to flutter or palpitate. The normal Japanese translation of sparkle is kagayaku, but I think that is close to "shine" than "sparkle". In certain instances, I think tokimeku can mean sparkle in Japanese. Of course, translation between languages is not a 1:1 correspondence.

I really love Marie Kondo's show.

It took too much time to touch every item, I just burned my home and bought a new one.

I had never heard of this method until a few days ago

Please make more videos about this.

Thank you for sharing this helpful video! ❤️🇵🇬

OMG yes!!! I love her method!

I love to only keep clothes that sparks joy !! And items

I love Her show it’s awesome 💜

her voice is sweet, she look genuinely happy at tackling mass &give thanks

The Sidetracked house wife book came out years ago and had the same ideas. Great books.

I realized my dude didn't 'spark joy' so I threw him out too

i tried cleaning my bedroom with konmari's method and now i own pretty much nothing. i couldnt be happier.

I realised I barely wear half of my clothes, so in the last few years I ended up owning less and less clothes and shoes. Now is very easy for me to organise and to know exactly what I have. You really don't need much ,just little bit of everything.....

I've tried the method and it's helped me a lot. But what if there are some possessions that one owns not out of joy, but out of necessity?

Just so glad I used my guest bed...after months it’s still all there...too overwhelming!

Thank you

Early squad! Love this channel

Seeing all those in clothes the video. i feel, I am already a minimalist

After I finally empty all these storage containers I have in my garage, I can finally turn them into garden boxes

If I haven’t worn it for over 3 years, I donate it

Interesting

Tidiness is something you are born with or without

Her jump at 1:24 tho

I love Mario Kart

What is cultivating psychpathy and psychosis

I’m a miniature wargaming hobbyist. ‘Nuff said.

I decluttered my house what else do you want.

Ok, so I can't be the only one who thought I was doing some ancient Japanese cleaning ritual when I started Konmari, right? I felt kinda dooped when it hit me it's really just her name. 🧐😒

@2:25

Losing money does not spark joy WTF

I see many problems with this method. The Minimal Mom's method is much more practical. You don't declutter all at once, but in small doses, layer by layer. She also recommends deciding on what is needed, then choosing, narrowing down, keeping that and donating the rest (or quarantining those things that you're not sure about). It's not nearly as daunting as "holding up ever single item and asking "Does it spark joy?" What does that even mean?

I think she caused a wave of massive waste and reconsumption in America. She started selling 200 dollar tchotchkes more recently too. It's only a lifestyle change for a portion of the people that get into the craze. The rest are going right back to Target to get "minimal aesthetic" junk. Granted, she's not considered a minimalist but to the average joe/jane that realizes how much better they have it than some barefoot kid in a poor country it's a slap in the face.

Unpopular opinion: I think most Americans should just own less stuff.

Already de-cluttered my whole house. What do you want from me...

First

To message to mari Kondo Mrs,

the vibe feels fake

I wonder why Marie has so bad lashes done?))))

To anyone reading: please research the KonMari method before implementing any part of it in your home. This method has philosophies + practices rooted in the Japanese religion known as Shinto. It is a religion the worships idols (false gods/man-made gods). If you believe in God and in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, then please avoid implementing the KonMari method. Using this method is considered engaging in and accepting idolatrous practices which God forbids us to do (See Holy Bible kjv to learn more). It is okay to declutter, fold, organize, trash, and donate things (in private), but be sure to do so in the Spirit, to practice godliness by the Christian faith. (e.g. Rather than thanking the items, always thank God for your items. If you choose to privately donate, pray to GOD in the name of Jesus that the items will bless someone. If you have unknowingly implemented this method or spread this idolatrous philosophy, you can always repent and ask God for forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ and God will forgive you. To learn more, please read the Holy Bible kjv. Before reading, ask GOD for wisdom and understanding in the name of Jesus Christ. If you have any questions about the Bible, be sure to attend church and ask an ordained minister/preacher/pastor for help.
