Minimalists blend religion with home and schedule decluttering to work toward a simpler, happier life
Decluttering, tidying, organization: Whatever it’s called, the trend toward minimalism has many American families committing to owning fewer things, buying less stuff, and living more simply.
One of the first Christians to publicly embrace downsizing, organization, and the adoption of a simpler lifestyle — along with a plan to accomplish it — was Marla Cilley.When she became overwhelmed with her house-and-home responsibilities, Cilley in 1999 developed a comprehensive cleaning and organization plan now known worldwide as the FLYLady system. FLY stands for Finally Loving Yourself, her advice to the overwhelmed.
In the U.S. in the past few decades, the ideal home-as-sanctuary has changed. The average size of the American home has tripled, and most homes contain more than 300,000 items. Most of the clients who hire The Wright Organizer, Wright says, are overwhelmed moms who long for the peace of an organized home.
To be sure, the ongoing minimalist movement offers a focus away from possessions and toward deeply held values.
