“Swedish death cleaning” may sound morbid, but the concept is less doom and gloom and more existential and sweet. Think of the decluttering style this way: if the KonMari Method and hygge had a baby, it’d be Swedish death cleaning.
The idea is simple, yet astounding. Swedish death cleaning is a Scandinavian method of organizing that focuses on decluttering your home before you pass on in an effort to lessen the burden on your grieving loved ones. Author Margareta Magnusson coined the phrase in her 2017 book The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, and the concept has been gaining traction ever since.
My space was in serious need of tidying, so I tried out the method in my own home. By taking on the Swedish death-cleaning mindset, not only did I earn a tidier, more minimalistic space, but through the process, I gained a deeper appreciation for life, too.

One look at the clutter in the corner of your closet, and you’ll agree. Excessive items, from mystery cables to ill-fitting dresses, can pile up without much thought.
“If we aren’t intentional about what we’re surrounding ourselves with, stuff can easily pile up and not only take over our physical space, but our minds as well, creating excess stress and overwhelm,” says Morgan Ovens,

What Can I grow in August?
Although August is the height of the summer, and it’s worthwhile taking time to stop and smell the roses, the vegetable gardener also has to be aware that autumn is just around the corner. That doesn’t have to be a depressing thought! It just means you need to harvest any crops that won’t survive the first frosts, and that you may want to preserve some so that you can have a homegrown taste of summer during the winter months. You should have some new crops on the way to look forward to, and be thinking about potting up herbs to bring under cover for the winter.
