What Is the KonMari Method?

The KonMari Method®, created by organizing expert Marie Kondo, is a transformative approach to decluttering that goes far beyond simply tidying up. It’s a philosophy rooted in intentional living, helping you curate a space that reflects joy, clarity, and purpose.

Instead of focusing on what to throw away, the KonMari Method invites you to choose what to keep—specifically, the items that spark joy. This emotional connection becomes the guiding principle for every decision, allowing you to surround yourself only with belongings that uplift and inspire you.

Core Principles of The KonMari Method

The Heart of the Method

Joy as Your Compass

Keep only items that truly spark joy in your heart.

Tidy by Category

Tidy by category (e.g., clothes, books, papers), not by location.

One-Time Reset

Tidy thoroughly and completely in one go to create lasting change.

Respect for Belongings

Treat your items with gratitude and care.

Inside Out Transformation

Tidying becomes a gateway to resetting your life and aligning your environment with your values.

"The question of what you want to own is really the question of how you want to live your life."

- Marie Kondo
