Cottage setting with Grove beach rights. The space Kondo’s approach to Japanese decluttering can be summed up by tokimeki, the idea that you should give away any possession that does not “spark joy.” Touch each object, listen to your heart, and feel the joy… or the lack thereof. Continue until you are surrounded only by the things that you love. This is how I have the place set up to feel clear with just the right item that you need. Guest access I have put a outdoor table which you can use anywhere on the property near the cottage. Other things to note The place is very quiet an near by popular restaurants on the shoreline. Our kitchen has a toaster oven and microwave.
