15 Minutes to Calm

Daily Micro-Habits to Keep Your Home Clutter-Free Forever

You don’t need a free weekend. You need a system.

15 Minutes to Calm is a practical, systems-based handbook for keeping your home clutter-free—without perfection, guilt, or marathon cleanups. In just 15 minutes a day, you’ll install simple micro-habits that reduce mess at the source, close open loops, and keep your space in a steady “reset” state.

This book is for you if:

• You’ve decluttered before… but the mess always comes back
• You feel like you’re constantly “catching up” at home
• You want clear steps—not vague advice or unrealistic routines

Inside you’ll build a Home Operating System (HOS) with:

• A simple daily rhythm: the AM Launchpad, Mid-Day Entropy Interrupt, and PM Shutdown
• Zone-specific systems for the kitchen, entryway, living room, bedroom, and bathroom
• A paper protocol that stops piles before they start
• Digital maintenance routines that reduce mental clutter and distraction
• A friction audit that fixes the “leaks” where clutter keeps accumulating
• An Emergency Reset protocol for busy weeks, travel, illness, and overwhelm

Kindle-friendly tools included:

• HOS Quickstart Guide (60-second overview)
• Daily HOS Checklist (easy to bookmark)
• Friction Audit + Zone Map prompts (simple, actionable, repeatable)

Because the goal isn’t a perfect home.
It’s a home that stays calm on ordinary days—so you can spend your energy on the life you actually want.

Start today. Set a timer. Protect your peace—15 minutes at a time.
