“Before death takes away what you are given, give away what there is to give”

- Rumi

​

​

Swedish Death Cleaning is a critical component to living purposefully, without clutter, and evaluating the importance to “hanging onto” items in our homes paired with the benefits to our quality of life we gain from letting go. 

​​

As a Death Doula, providing Swedish Death Cleaning assistance is one of my great joys in providing services:

 

Reflecting on our mortality can lead to cherished memories and appreciation of the life we have to live yet.

​

Taking Responsibility for our lives, our possessions, our legacies so that others do not have to. 

​

Declutter our spaces for emotional, mental and physical well being. 

​

Use Practical tips and strategies to create new goals and habits for living well and appreciating our lives. 

​

Use the practice to focus on Sentimental items to gift or reminisce to build strong relationships, memories and community. 

​​

Starting this process after your “death” is not the goal. Leaving your home full of hobbies, clothing, paperwork, digital files and nic-knacks for your family or “someone else” to deal with, is not the responsibility of others to do and can often cause chaos, resentment and further the grieving process.

​

> Are you overwhelmed and looking for help to prepare to downsize from a family home to a smaller more retirement or 55+ friendly location, or maybe out of state closer to distant family?

​​

> Has a loved one or parent passed away and you may be left with the family home and would like some HELP going through the home with some helpful tips before calling in desperate measures?

​​​​

This is NOT a cleaning service but coaching and assistance to work WITH you in making choices to depart with items and the clutter accumulated over your life with purpose. ​The goal is to leave you with insight, motivation and a plan to carry through with your goal and continue living your life with these ideas in mind. 

​​

 It’s time to take charge of your life accumulated!
