Making the SHiFT®: True Stories of How People Affected by Chronic Disorganization Learn To Live a Deserving Life, is a guide for professional organizers, mental health professionals, and anyone wishing to better understand the behaviors of people who live with chronic disorganization.
While observing and interacting with her clients, author and professional organizer Jen Cazares noticed a basic, underlying pattern. When the weight of clutter buried their social connections with family and friends, negatively impacted their physical health and the health of their home, depleted their finances, and wasted their time, Cazares's clients lost sight of who they were and their purpose in life. As a result, organizing overstuffed households involved more than decluttering "things"; it required attending to her clients' behaviors and underlying beliefs. This is the foundation of the SHiFT® method of organizing.
Making the SHiFT® combines sage observations from hundreds of client interactions with adaptive organizing techniques. Through case studies and real-time exercises, readers will discover the enormous healing potential of the SHiFT® method. People affected by chronic disorganization can move from fragmentation into wholeness and learn to live a deserving life. Making the SHiFT® shows how.
