NEW this Spring: Decluttering with Chantal!
Freshen up your home for spring, increase ease in your daily life, and get ready for garage sale season! In this program, participants will join a certified KonMari® Consultant in a virtual group setting to explore aspects of the method and work to reduce clutter in their homes.
We will meet online via video conferencing. The link to join will be provided to participants in advance via email or text.
• Saturdays 10:30am-12pm, Apr 4 - Apr 25
Sign up now: https://ourwildwood.ca/register/
Each session will start with participant check-ins, decluttering tips and inspiration, followed by focused independent decluttering work, with time at the end to tidy up, ask questions, and share and celebrate progress made.
The KonMari Method®, created by Marie Kondo, is a thorough decluttering process that prioritizes keeping what brings joy in each category of items in the home. Starting with clothes, participants get a taste for honing their decluttering skills before moving on to other categories in the home such as books, papers, etc, setting aside any sentimental items to look through at the end of the process.
Disclaimer: Individual results may vary. The ultimate responsibility for choosing to keep or discard items rests with each participant. This program is intended as coaching guidance and encouragement only, not as a replacement for professional services or therapy.
(Please email [email protected] with any questions, or with your available days/times if you are interested in the program but Saturday morning is unavailable for you).
Age Range: All Ages
Registration Cap: limited to 8 participants

May 20 is World Organizing Day!

This has me thinking about the ways that getting rid of the excess we don't need or love allows us to grow and thrive. Organizing our belongings hones our skill at considering our values and preferences in our day-to-day priorities as well.

Decluttering has definitely prompted me to consider what really matters to me and take real steps toward those things... like finding my old worn out dance shoes, keeping them because I love everything about it - the dancing, culture, friends, memories, etc, and then realizing, wait, I don't have to give this up forever just because I'm not in high school anymore. I've been taking an adult class the past 2 years from Wilson School of Highland Dance and loooving it.

Even though it's technically spring, let's let the last little bit of the wintery feel spark joy, Saskatoon! I love this video from encouraging us to enjoy what a beautiful vibrant city we live in, with the people we love.

Discover Saskatoon and let winter spark joy. Try snowshoeing or kick sledding at Wanuskewin. Play indoors at the Wonder Hub. Explore the Meewasin, go skating...
