Spark Joy and Live Your Best Life Ever in 2019
The Idea Specialists at Collingwood Apartment Community have been hard at work searching for inspirational ideas to make living your best life a reality in 2019. It’s always great to start a new year, leaving behind the old and ushering in the new. Decluttering and clearing your living space can lead to a more productive life and this, apparently, has become a trend — one we can really latch on to. You may have run across the crazy hot new NETFLIX series Tidying Up with Marie Kondo featuring Japanese lifestyle guru Marie Kondo who takes the concept of an organized home to a new level. During the series of inspiring home makeovers, Marie helps clients clear out clutter and choose joy by taking stock of their current inventory of clothes, books, paper, miscellaneous items, then sentimental items, determining their value in your life. Calling her process, the KonMari method, she advises that only items the spark joy in your life should remain. In her lifestyle blog, Marie advises you that “When you imagine your ideal lifestyle, you are really clarifying why you want to tidy and identifying the kind of life you want to live once you have finished.” Those are great words to consider because identifying the kind of life you want to live is important. And surrounding yourself with joy through the lifestyle you choose is a great path. We think that a fresh, clean space can be a powerful motivator to help you relax, enjoy life. That’s why Collingwood’s Idea Specialists are excited to spotlight The Cambridge, our spacious 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment home featuring amenities that allow you to live the organized life you want; large walk-in closets, abundant cabinet space in the kitchen, separate washer dryer area, and a porch/balcony area for relaxed entertaining. And if that’s not enough to send you into total Zen-mode, how about amenities like wooded and lake views, fireplaces in many units, a 24 hour fitness center and a lap-style pool? 2019 is your year! If you don’t live here yet, call the team at Collingwood at 770-667-5255 and let us take you on a personal tour. And if you are a Collingwood resident already—great! You’re one step ahead for sparking joy living your best life ever.
