mindful closet courses

This course offered me more than I expected. I gained important self-awareness about my shopping habits and current wardrobe; was able to refresh my style and focus my wardrobe on that style; and am now on a path for less spending, more intentional purchases and a wardrobe that brings me joy, with a style that fits me and I feel good in! Thanks to Dacy for her wonderful guidance and sharing her experience. She is supportive, understanding, and very clear on her advice on how to have a mindful closet. Thanks Dacy!!! XO

Making Space is a fantastic course to get you started on simplifying not only your wardrobe but also your life. I’m so glad I participated in this group/course. Dacy is extremely knowledgeable about how to clean out your closet and teaches you to only keep what you love. She’s also very insightful on the common issues that women struggle with in regards to clothing and is able to get you thinking about these issues in your own life. Great course! Highly recommend!

Making Space is an excellent course. There is so much emotion, history and self image stuff going on with what we wear and why. Dacy effectively helped me to sort through all of that to get to the heart of getting dressed in flattering, appropriate clothing without the stress and angst. The course guided me in identifying my style, taught me why some items weren't working and helped me to let go of them. It also helped me hone in on what items were truly missing/needed and purchase clothes that would make my life easier. Before this course, I did not appreciate the impact of "visual clutter" and why it makes getting dressed for the day more complicated than it needs to be. Finally, Dacy is understanding about the sentimental value of clothing (that sweater your mom knitted for your first day of kindergarten); she doesn't insist that everything sentimental must go, just that it not sit in the middle of your rack of clothing for everyday. I am grateful for Dacy's expertise and her gentle spirit.

This course really helped me identify my personal style and use that information to evaluate the clothing I have and whether it fits into lifestyle. It also helped me to organize my clothing in a way that makes getting myself put together for any occasion much simpler. I didn't realize how much time/energy I had been spending staring at my closet until I got it organized and also did some reflection on the clothes I have, why I have them, whether I should keep them, and what types of things I should bring into my closet in the future. My closet is now streamlined much more manageable.

It was very revealing to me, especially taking a "count" of my clothing, I made many realizations and it further reiterated that purging is a process, I can't do it in one swell swoop it's going to take me time. The book "The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up" was also amazing and was a wonderful suggestion to read during taking the course.

I really enjoyed being a part of the Mindful Closet course this winter. It was an eye-opening experience, and I've even been working at honing my wardrobe for the past few years - Dacy really helps you pull it all together. The pace is great, if you are serious about rethinking the way you dress from a wholistic perspective, this is for you. It was helpful to set the stage in week one, dig into the work of handling all of your clothes in week two and three, and then exploring the best way to fill in any gaps, I felt like I was able to make sustainable changes in my habits and my mindset. Dacy's empathetic and open demeanor, and the group dynamics within the Facebook page, helped build accountability and quick feedback into what can easily be an overwhelming task. Dacy guides the process and is ready to answer every question and stumbling block a participant can throw her way in the weekly videos. She relates well to the struggles that we faced, and is ready to help you through them. I learned a lot from my fellow participants, and was grateful to know others were working on this at the same time as me. I highly recommend the course if you are looking to open your closet each morning and not feel an ounce of stress, but rather confidence and relief that you love all of your options AND they work for you, in whatever season of life you may be in.

This course (and Dacy!) helped me define my style, release unnecessary clothing, and shop with intent for clothes that make me feel confident. Dacy's expertise—her balanced compassion and directness—are invaluable! If you struggle with your wardrobe, your style, your shopping habits or just getting dressed, take this course. You won't regret it!

This class helped me determine my style preferences, figure out how to move toward that look and generally improve my appearance, and was immensely supportive in helping me eliminate all the items in my closet not moving toward that goal. Dressing is less stressful and I look better and my home is a bit less cluttered. The class took some time. You have to put some serious effort into it. I found it well worth the time, effort, and initial cost. In fact, I'm pretty sure in the long run it saved me time, effort, and money!
