Home Organization Course

Learn how you can get your home organized with my easy step-by-step organization course. My course is full of organization ideas as well as home organization tips and tricks to get your life and home organized and keep it that way.

ONLINE DECLUTTERING COURSE

For the past several months I have been putting together my Online Organization Course, The Balanced Home. I am excited to teach you my decluttering and cleaning process. These processes also teach you how to create simple routines and cleaning schedules which allow you to naturally maintain your clean and organized home.

No need to hire a professional organizer, or live with the clutter because you will have the skills and learn how to overcome any mental barriers or fears you might have to get started!

WHAT DOES THE ORGANIZATION COURSE COVER?

The Balanced Home Organization Core  

($1,000 Value)Contains my core Decluttering and Organization Processes, which shows you how to:

  • Learn how to declutter and organize your home–by learning processes and techniques that really work!
  • Deal with stuff you don’t know how to get rid of
  • Understand what qualifies as hoarding
  • Understand how to overcome hoarding tendencies
  • Deal with your junk room or junk drawer

The Tools

  • Workbook, Resources, Labels, and More ($250 Value). Contains everything you need to help guide you through each lesson, including:
  • An easy-to-follow workbook to guide you step-by-step through the lessons
  • Printable Labels
  • A vision sheet for your home
  • A working checklist of tasks you can accomplish in 30 minutes or less
  • Shopping and To-Do Lists
  • Monthly Calendar and Weekly Schedule

The Mental Foundation
 

The best processes to overcome mental barriers from Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi’s Mastermind Course ($200 Value). Helps you to find the time, the energy and the motivation to organize your home by:

  • Discovering your “true, internal why” -> what motivates you to want an organized home
  • Helping you clearly identify what is holding you back from success
  • Teaching you how to organize your schedule to create new pockets of time
  • Helping you discover what is most important for you to accomplish with your time, as opposed to just urgent or habit
  • Helping you cut out the things that aren’t important and identify gaps in your schedule you can dedicate to working on your home

Your Ideal Home

The best processes to set and achieve your vision by breaking it down into actionable steps ($300 Value). Teaches you how to break down an overwhelming project into small, manageable steps, by:

  • Clearly defining your goal and vision for your home
  • Learning how to evaluate specific rooms and identify what you want to be improved
  • Identifying specific, easy to complete tasks in each room that will contribute to your overall goal without overwhelming you
  • Getting your family or others involved in the process

Cleaning and Maintaining

The best processes to clean and maintain your home after it has been organized ($200 Value).Teaches you how to maintain your home once it is clean and keep it organized, by:

  • Providing you with the basic cleaning routines you need to naturally stay in control of your home
  • Teaching you my amazing “Ten-Minute Clean-up” process, which allows you to clean an entire floor / room in ten minutes or less!
  • Showing you how to establish routines with your kids and other members of the family
  • Sharing important resources such as chore cards, favorite cleaning products, and a deep-cleaning checklist, and more
  • Explaining the laundry routine we use in our home to get our laundry done every week without even thinking about it
  • Teaching you how to deep clean your home after it has been decluttered and organized
  • Showing you how to help the other members of your household be on the same page and not “unclean” your home

During the course, we will:

  • Show you the process of how to go throughout your home decluttering, cleaning, and organizing. Then you can take this process and go throughout all the rooms in your home–including the bathrooms, kitchen, craft room, home office, basement, entryway, playroom, garage, attic, and all other rooms in your home–cleaning and organizing.
  • Clean out and organize not just the rooms themselves, but organization spaces such as closets, shelves, drawers, and bookshelves.
  • Learn how to properly use organization equipment, such as bins, drawer organizers, storage bins, food storage containers, lids, and baskets.

The Private Balanced Home Community

(BONUS – Priceless). Provides a community that you can go to whenever you need a place where you…

  • Seek inspiration and ideas from others
  • Receive support and motivation from others
  • Share your successes and see the successes of others as we all work towards finding balance and clarity in our homes.
  • Can ask questions and let me know what you may still need help with so that I can continue to cater the course to your needs

What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?

“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”

“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”

“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”

When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!””

HOW TO GET MOTIVATED TO ORGANIZE YOUR HOME

HOW TO OVERCOME FEARS AND MENTAL BARRIERS

I asked and these are the things that are holding you back from getting started! I made sure my course helped you overcome your specific fears and developed processes to address each of the concerns below. Have you ever had any of the same concerns?

  • “I don’t have the time.”
  • “I don’t know how to break it down into manageable chunks.”
  • “How do I balance other activities?”
  • “I don’t have enough energy / motivation.”
  • “I’m overwhelmed and don’t know where to start.”
  • “I’m scared / unable to commit.”
  • “I don’t trust myself.”
  • “I don’t have the confidence I will finish.” 
  • “How do I maintain / keep on top of it?”
  • “I have a hard time with inconsistency / finding balance.”
  • “I’m afraid of quitting too soon and having it be a mess.”
  • “How do I build the habits and routines?”
  • “Keeping it clean and organized”“Staying focused and not getting distracted.”
  • “What if I have physical limitations.”
  • “I don’t have the supplies / resources / money (i.e. containers etc.) / storage space.”
  • “I don’t want to part with things.”
  • “What Do I do with all the stuff? Donate? Kids?”
  • “What if I need it later?”
  • “My family has stuff they want to keep.”
  • “Family is not being helpful or even counterproductive… How do I get my family on board?”
  • “No sense of design / vision for what I want.”
  • “Lack of knowledge.”
  • “Afraid of not doing it right.”
  • “Being okay with not having it perfect.”

STILL NOT READY TO BUY?

Because I know that sometimes it can be difficult to take that initial leap of faith, I wanted to give you something that would allow you to get your feet wet a little, something that you could access RIGHT NOW.  I think you’ll like it.  I’ve opened up a “sneak peek” section of my course, where you can access one or two of the lessons that are a part of The Balanced Home Course.  If you click the button below you will be able to create your own personal account / log in for the course and access the “sneak peek” videos.

New Years gift and giveaway

Free Downloads· New Year's Eve

This Giveaway is now CLOSED!!

The winner is:

Are you headed to someone’s house for a little New Years Eve Celebration?  Why not give your hostess a fun little gift…a sparkly ice bucket and personalized bottle label.  Or, if you are staying in for your own celebration, you can use this for your own party guests.

DIY-New-years

The challenge for December’s #LowesCreator Creative Network was “Sparkle!”  We were challenged to come up with something that would fit the theme.

2013 gift 2-6

So of course, I immediately thought of Krylon’s Glitter Blast Spray Paint.  I picked up one of these metal buckets in the paint department of Lowe’s which was right by the spray paint.  I picked up the same silvery color as the bucket just to give the bucket a sparkly finish.

Then I picked up some “Sparkling” Cider (since we aren’t drinkers at my house…but you can use your drink of choice) and covered it with a fun and unique New Years Label.

DIY-New-Years

A really simple gift idea and festive addition to your New Years Eve Celebrations.
