“If it doesn’t spark joy, let it go.”

It’s the defining quote of the past year,

t ha n k s to or ga n i z at ion g u r u Ma r ie Kondo

and her simple-is-better philosophy of life.

And while her motto may have been focused on the

physical home (ahem, your closet), the words certainly

apply to other facets of who we are—our friendships,

our relationships, our careers. Why? In short, the more

baggage you toss, the more space you create for oppor-

tunities that spark unimaginable joy.

A nd t here’s no bet ter t i me t ha n a cha nge of se a son s

for a rejuvenating cleanse of the people and patterns

that aren’t serving you. So get ready to “KonMari” your

life...starting with these three ditchable downers.

Make Space for

Happy Vibes

IT’S NOT JUST CLUTTER THAT

HAS THE POWER TO WEIGH YOU DOWN.

TIME TO TOSS THE NEGATIVE

PEOPLE, HABITS, AND THOUGHTS YOU’RE

CLINGING TO AND PAVE THE PATH TO A

LIGHTER, FULLER EVER-AFTER.
