In Sweden there is a kind of decluttering called döstädning, dö meaning "death" and städning meaning "cleaning." This invigorating process of clearing out unnecessary belongings can be undertaken at any life stage. Here, Margareta instructs readers to embrace minimalism, and suggests which possessions you can easily get rid of (unworn clothes, unwanted presents, more plates than you'd ever use) and which you might want to keep (photographs, love letters, a few of your children's art projects).
