First, one might ask: Why not just read the first three books? After all, Rudolf Steiner wrote them in such a way that the very act of reading them can awaken new faculties. Who could ever duplicate that? It might even seem presumptuous to select passages from books that were constructed by an initiate. To those who have these and other objections, I have the following response: My hope is that the pages in this book serve as an invitation, so that those who work with this material will then be motivated to go to the original texts and work with them more intensively. —Torin Finser

Clutter: it’s not just the piles of junk in your closet. It’s also the nagging thoughts, endless to-do lists, and calendar full of obligations. It’s the fears and worries that cycle through your mind on repeat, and the sticky emotional energy that you pick up from the people around you. It’s the sense of panicky suffocation you feel when you contemplate all that you “have” to accomplish in a day, a week, or a lifetime. For almost thirty years, Stephanie Bennett Vogt has been teaching the art of clearing clutter at every level: physical, energetic, mental, and emotional. Her unique “slow-drip” approach to clearing is a welcome antidote to popular binge-cleaning methods that leave you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. With her practical tips and step-by-step guidance, you’ll learn how to identify the root causes of clutter, create a personalized clutter-clearing plan, and break the endless cycle of clutter accumulation. Completely revised and updated with even more inspiring stories, helpful exercises, and insightful advice, Your Spacious Self: Clear the Clutter and Discover Who You Are, 10th Anniversary Edition is the ultimate guide to transforming your home and life.
