A note from Erik

“A calmer home is not one big clear-out. It is small decisions, finished properly.”

I'm Erik, the guide who walks you through The 30-Day Home Reset and The Downsizing Workbook. The books rest on a few plain rules, and I'll keep bringing you back to them.

Let the space set the limit. A cupboard can be full of useful things and still be hard to use, so the question is what fits the life and space you have now. Give everything a destination: stay here, move elsewhere, pass on or dispose, with one review box for the few decisions that need more information. Finish the exit. A donation bag in the hallway has not left the home.

Some days you have an hour, some days five minutes. Start with the 30-session plan, with a full, short and minimum version of every session, or go straight to the field guide you need.

The aim is a home that asks less of you every week, and, if a smaller home is ahead, a move you have measured and planned before the first box is packed.

Before you choose

Short answers about format, pace, energy and the collection offer.

If your rooms feel crowded day to day, start with The 30-Day Home Reset. If a move to a smaller home is planned, start with The Downsizing Workbook. The collection gives you both.

Both are PDF ebooks with 7.5 by 10.5 inch pages. They open on a phone, tablet or computer with no special app, and you can print the pages you need for your own household.

No. The number describes the order of the sessions, not a deadline. Work on consecutive days, spread the sessions over months, or use the short or minimum version on a tired day. You can also skip the plan and go straight to the field guide you need.

Yes. Each book has a free sample PDF with the contents page and real pages from the book. There is also a free four-page starter checklist.

It is inspired by the practical idea behind it: decide about your belongings while you can still choose where they go. The books are an original plan, not an official Swedish system.

On a fixed schedule that is the same for everyone, the collection is 15% off for 3 hours: $33.15 instead of $39. Then it returns to $39 for 7 days before the next 3-hour window. When a window is open, this page shows the code and the exact end time. The single books are not part of the offer.

Every session has a short and a minimum version. The books also ask you to get help with heavy lifting, ladders and anything that needs a qualified professional.

The Home Reset Collection

15% off both books.

The 30-Day Home Reset and The Downsizing Workbook together for $33.15 instead of $39, while this 3-hour window is open.

Applies to The Home Reset Collection only: 15% off $39 is $33.15. The single books stay at $29 and $19. Each window lasts 3 hours, then the regular price returns for 7 days. A checkout started during the window holds the offer price for at least 30 minutes, so it can still be paid shortly after the window ends. New checkouts after that are $39.

Checkout is not open on this site yet, so the code can't be used today. Both free samples are ready to read now.
