Anyone who has been to my home knows that I like things in their place. I find it calming to create order in my home. A peaceful, organized home provides the mental space and energy to be more fluid and spontaneous in my life. An ordered home is also an important element to my approach to parenting.
Children need peaceful, loving environments in which they can explore and play. The openness and calm of an organized home allows one to focus their energy and mindset- whether in the act of play, reading or working. Stress is minimized in the home with ordered surroundings which supports positive family interpersonal interactions. Children are invited to rise to the moment with their best behavior in a peaceful home. They develop a sense of order and meditative expression in the act of tidying.
