Clear away the noise in your life｜TEDxKhargharWomen
In this talk, I explore how unnecessary possessions,
information, and outdated beliefs can limit our actions and
decisions.
Drawing on real-life stories from my work in online
decluttering, I propose that the very process of deciding
"what to keep and what to let go" is key to shaping our
future. Decluttering isn't just a task—it's an opportunity to
reassess your entire life.
This talk offers practical insights on how to do just that.
What is KasumiFlow Method?
The KasumiFlow Method is a decluttering approach designed to
remove the noise from your life and help you live with greater
freedom.
Rather than pushing yourself to "try harder," this method
encourages a natural, effortless flow—organizing your belongings,
thoughts, and time with ease, like a river flows and the wind
blows. After all, straining or forcing things often makes
decluttering even harder. By continuously asking what to keep and
what to release, you clarify your priorities and move forward
lightly and confidently. This is the value that the KasumiFlow
Method brings.
Decluttering is a journey of decision-making
Decluttering is the daily practice of asking what to keep and
what to let go.
Japan's culture of tidying is attracting attention around the
world. It's more than just minimizing possessions—it's about
discerning what truly matters, and refining your life and
values. From the Zen aesthetic of "yohaku" (meaningful space)
to the wisdom of living comfortably in small spaces, Japanese
philosophies offer immense value in today's fast-paced world.
What matters most is organizing your thoughts.
By sorting through the overwhelming items and information in your life, you begin to rediscover what's truly necessary. This naturally clarifies your priorities and brings more lightness and clarity to your everyday decisions. Decluttering is a chance to reset your life. I want to share this Japanese approach—"reduce the clutter, center your mind"—with more people. Decluttering doesn't just clear a room. It creates space for your authentic self to emerge and flourish.
Decluttering is a chance to reset your life
I want to share this uniquely Japanese approach to decluttering—reducing possessions and centering the mind—with more people around the world. Decluttering is more than just clearing your space; it's an opportunity to reflect on and reset your entire life. What lies beyond is a new stage, where you can fully express who you truly are.

Mission
Eliminate the noise, and help people live their own lives.
My mission is to help remove the "noise" from people's lives
so they can make decisions with clarity and confidence. By
noise, I mean unused items, excessive information, and the
expectations of others—all things that confuse and weigh us
down. I used to struggle with indecision.
Even when I had goals, I felt trapped beneath clutter and
couldn't move forward. Decluttering taught me to ask, "What do
I really need?"
That question helped me rediscover my values, clarify my
priorities, and reclaim my direction in life. When you can
confidently say, "This stays, this goes," you're no longer
swayed by external chaos—you can focus on what really matters.
I want to build a society where the freedom to choose is the
norm, and where decluttering empowers individuals,
organizations, and the world to become simpler and stronger.
I look forward to teaching worldwide!
