When you think of what it will take to clean your house, are you so overwhelmed you throw up your hands and cry, "It's all too much"? Do you dream of having a closet where your clothes aren't crammed in so tightly that you can actually get to them? Is your basement filled with boxes of precious family mementos you haven't opened in ten years but are too afraid to toss? Are your kitchen counters overrun with appliances you've never used? Do your kids play in the living room because there's no room left in their playroom? If somewhere along the way you've simply lost the ability to keep your home organized and clutter-free, then It's All Too Much has the solution you've been searching for.
Peter Walsh, the organizational guru from TLC's hit show Clean Sweep, understands how easy it is for clutter to creep into your life and how hard it is to get rid of it. In It's All Too Much, he shares his proven system for letting go of your emotional and physical clutter so that you can create a happier, more stress-free home and life. At last, here is a system for managing your clutter, regaining control, and living the life you imagine for yourself.
Peter has helped clients from every walk of life. With his trademark humor and insight, Peter guides you step-by-step through the very charged process of decluttering your home, organizing your possessions, and reclaiming your life. Going way beyond color-coded boxes and storage bin solutions, It's All Too Much shows you how to reexamine your priorities and let go of the things that are weighing you down. Clearly and simply, Peter gives you the courage you need to go through your home, room by room -- even possession by possession -- and honestly assess what adds to your quality of life and what's keeping you from living the life of your dreams.
Filled with real-life examples and advice for homes of all sizes and personalities, It's All Too Much will set you free from the emotional baggage that goes along with clutter and help you lead a fuller, richer life with less stuff.

A MUST READ for everyone:
I read this book a year ago and I have recommended it to many friends and family members. My husband read it also, he wasn't that excited to read it, but he did it for me. We tackled our clutter together and we included the kids. At the end of our two week purge project we had a huge yard sale and we were able to get rid of our storage unit rental. I am an ANXIOUS person. My two teenagers are too. The real miracle that came from reading this book is the anxiety relief. Buying stuff, moving stuff,... more info
Kept my sanity!:
Gave me a fresh perspective and has been my rock while cleaning out mom and dad's house. 63 years of marriage, both raised thru the depression!!!! They threw nothing away!
The only way I could face all of this was maybe a gallon of gas and a match. "Its all too much" and basically taking one bite of the elephant at a time, we have made it through 3 estate sales and we are down to cleaning out the attic and one (hopefully) more sale.
Thank you!

And I am a material girl - Madonna; chorus for Material Girl Well, we live in a "material culture." Consumerism abounds. It's all "get, get, get" and "have, have, have." The stuff piles up. And piles up. Then... where is the dining room table top? When did the master bedroom become the toy storage area? Where should a decade's worth of Gourmet magazine be kept? Got... more info
A little new, a lot we've heard before.:
I was excited that this might be the book to change my life, and the introductory matter let me hold onto that hope. The concept of "one's perfect life" is a fresh one, but the room-by-room bulk of the book resorts to old adages like "If you haven't worn it in a year, get rid of it." And with that, Walsh joins the rank of authors that *just don't get it*, in my assessment. But I will finish the book in further hope of finding a few gems.
