My clients' experiences of my workshops

An impressive, varied and comprehensive workshop! A good balance of background and practical tips. A professional approach to the whole. It's not just about organising stuff, but about challenging existing ways of thinking. I warmly recommend this to anyone who wants a less congested everyday life.

Henna's workshop was just what I needed to balance out my messy everyday life. I got a lot of inspiration to pick up where my own stuff skills had left off before.

Within 45 minutes of getting home I had already folded the shirts and trousers from my wide open wardrobe into the cupboard, unheard of for me!

Henna is a dynamic and solution-oriented trainer. The course was well planned and prepared, and the tasks carried out during the day provided a kick-start and food for thought to take home.

The group sparked some fruitful and sometimes hilarious discussions, and peer support was a big part of the training. The exercises made people reflect on their own lives and everyday life from a new perspective.

A warm thank you and my recommendations!
TEIJA
Mother of five
It's a really nice package. The background information opened up my own thoughts and made me think about the background and importance of things.

The tasks were fun and thought-provoking. A nice and useful course.

Facts about the workshop

Why would I spend four hours on this in all of my hurry?

What if the workshop is disappointing for you? What if there are completely different people there and I don't fit in?

I understand these thoughts.

But what if nothing changes and your everyday life is still difficult a year from now?

Maybe now is the time to act.

It is possible to create a clutter-free everyday life with the right skills. The picture shows a hallway with a mirror, flowers and a child's backpack on a nail.
01

Guarantee

I offer a money-back guarantee if you don't benefit from the workshop.

02

Peer support

You'll find that everyone has their own challenges with the overwhelming amount of stuff in the home and the difficulties of juggling a career and parenthood.

03

strategic strike

During the day, you will get a new strategic perspective on the organisation of your home and everyday life, and concrete steps towards the change you want to see.

04

A moment of rest

The workshop also offers a luxury moment of rest in the middle of a busy day. We will enjoy a delicious lunch, schmooze over bubbles and you can enjoy refreshments throughout the workshop.

Three months after the workshop (Organise your everyday life with decluttering and goods skills)

"At home, the eye can already see new areas for improvement better and the lessons learned from the workshop have already been used several times to go through the same places, different wardrobes, the cupboard under the toilet sink. The bread container used by the husband does not disturb the wife's eye when it is in its new place.

Even children are starting to get the hang of disposing of things that are extra for them. The lines of communication are now open and the common goals of the home are clear.

Cleaning the hallway isn't such a hassle any more when your stuff has its own home. The vacuum cleaner no longer lives on the floor of the study, but has been given space in the actual cleaning cupboard where it used to fit.

There is still a lot to do, but the stock is slowly diminishing. The workshop gave me a lot of self-compassion, understanding, peer support and also tools to deal with the chaos in my home."

I help you clear out a restful home in the middle of busy years

I know how it feels when there are not enough hours. The laundry just comes out of nowhere. The chores pile up. At a management team meeting, a child's sleep toy is found in the laptop bag. It's frustrating and stressful.

Everyday life doesn't have to be like this. Learning the skills is the missing piece.

I am a trained professional organiser Henna Paakinaho. I help parents who are balancing work and home needs.

I have a decade of experience balancing a demanding career and a large family with everyday life and home. I arrange homes to serve the family's daily life for the people, not for the stuff.

What about the details?

This is probably due to one or more of the classic reasons. You're also likely to be doing unnecessary housework, missing a few critical household skills and perhaps lacking an everyday strategy.

Identifying these causes, learning the skills of the goods and making a plan will enable you to organise your home and everyday life. With them, the chaos of everyday life and the jungle of the home begin to unravel.

The workshop won't organise your home, but it will give you a good start in organising your daily life and your home. If you've been stuck and not getting organised like you used to, this workshop will help you untie the knots. Cleaning will also become possible, even from people other than you.

The workshop will include theory, exercises and discussion, as well as a delicious lunch and refreshments. You will receive the workshop materials to help you implement. The tasks will serve as your personal plan to move forward towards the everyday life you want.

During the workshop, we will enjoy lunch together. Sparkling wine and non-alcoholic sparkling wine will be served. Refreshments will also be available throughout the workshop.

I will help you to explore your everyday problems in a safe and respectful environment. You'll have inspiring moments in a supportive group that doesn't judge anyone's baggage. No one's situation will be shunned, but supported and encouraged in a solution-focused way.

We take a break from the workshop to keep you in a good state of mind. Each section will include some theory and, alternately, individual and group tasks. By the end of the workshop, you will know how to get on with organising your daily life and home, even in a busy environment. You'll also understand what you can cut out of your daily routine straight away.

This workshop is perfect for you if you don't have time to sit through an online course and want to make an effective change in your daily life. You already know a little bit about organising, but for some reason your home doesn't stay tidy.

You like workshop-style work, where you hear new information and immediately apply it to your own situation.

Those struggling with the pressures of work and home life will find peers and support, more concrete ways and practical tips on how to organise their everyday life.

The day is ideal for anyone who wants to do less housework.

The next workshop is not yet booked. I will post more details here when the next workshop date and location is confirmed.

The workshop is paid in advance by invoice sent by email.

Online payment coming soon.

The minimum number of participants in a workshop is three. If the minimum number of participants is not met, I will inform you and refund the full fee. I will also refund the fee if the workshop has to be cancelled for other reasons due to the organiser. We reserve the right to make changes.

The workshop is organised by Ruuhkaton arki, 3321624-6 (Bakersfield & Moor Ltd).

This workshop is limited to a small group, so registration is binding. However, I offer a satisfaction guarantee: if the workshop did not help you organise your day, I will refund the fee.
