Summary

If you’re like me, when you think about “life changing magic”, you think about tidying up. Author Marie Kondo is right there with us. Her KonMari method of decluttering involves holding items in your hand and asking if they spark joy. What if we could use the same method as a way to reassess our health journventures for this season? This week, Catherine and Donald walk you through using the KonMari method to refocus and re-energize your health and fitness routines as we head into summer. This is your lesson on your emotional keep, toss, donate, and add for your health and fitness goals mental piles. Plus, Donald gets terrorized by swans, Catherine salutes gravity, and the couple is supportive of The Punkers, The Grunges, and The Industrials.
