The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning

Dostadning, or the art of death cleaning, is a Swedish phenomenon by which the elderly and their families set their affairs in order. Whether it's sorting the family heirlooms from the junk, downsizing to a smaller place, or setting up a system to help you stop misplacing your keys, death cleaning gives us the chance to make the later years of our lives as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whatever your age, Swedish death cleaning can be used to declutter your life, and take stock of what's important. It can also offer the chance to celebrate and reflect on all the tiny joys that make up a long life along the way.
