I came across this article in the New York Times about happiness. https://www.nytimes.com/guides/well/how-to-be-happy

Two parts of the article relate directly to what Brilliant Living can help with and I love the reinforced knowledge that through my work I am helping people with their overall happiness (and my own), especial in times like these.

The first part is: Declutter (But Save What Makes You Happy)

This allows you to be literally and figuratively less weighed down by your surroundings. Much of the article has self-help tips, which are wonderful but if you find yourself unable to get started or keep up with the tasks that create a tidy home, I can help.

The second part of the article pertaining to my work is, Buying Time Promotes Happiness

Harvard researchers did a study that shows spending money on time saving conveniences lowers stress and increases happiness. The article suggests that even if you feel guilty about spending money on these conveniences, if you can afford it do it anyway.

 

I help cull items that are no longer useful to your physical or mental well-being. I find functional and beautiful ways to store your remaining items, typically without extra purchases of organizational tools. And I help with the Sisyphean tasks like dishes and laundry while tending to the rest of the home.

I’m very grateful for my work and happy to help.
