"Clutter isn’t just the stuff in your closet.
It’s anything that gets between you and the life that you want to be living."
– PETER WALSH
Do you know what KIND of clutter...
is making YOUR life HEAVY?
Mind Clutter
→ This manifests as the negative thoughts that are weighing you down.
Maybe you believe that you're too much or not enough. Or you spend a lot of time ruminating about your interactions with others. Perhaps you believe that you have to DO IT ALL, ALL THE TIME to be worthy. These are all examples of mind clutter that incessantly tells you that you deserve the extra wine and cake, or 'to shop until you drop.'
Body Clutter
→ This is what you put in and on your body that doesn’t do you any favors.
Maybe you’re mindlessly consuming too many empty calories. Perhaps you're using toxic beauty care and questionable cleaning products. Or the air you're breathing is contaminated with toxic mold. Body clutter becomes the exhaustion and excess pounds that get between you and the life you want to live.
Home Clutter
→ This looks like an uncomfortable amount of stuff and it's impacting how you feel and what you do.
Home clutter represents all of the distractions in which you looked for happiness and didn’t find it. The clutter in your home doesn’t just make a visual mess; it creates sensory overload and stress in your life. It's not only harming your health & well-being, it's harming our beautiful planet as well.
Hi there, I'm Heather Aardema
Former overweight clutter-bug turned minimalist and the founder of School of Living Lighter.
As a former TV ad executive, I spent two decades convincing people that they needed the latest gadget to be happy. Struggling to find deeper meaning in my job towards the end of my corporate career, I bought anything I wanted telling myself I deserved it.
I couldn't take off my extra weight, my home was CLUTTERED, and life felt complicated and heavy.
I left the corporate world, embraced the intentionality found in minimalism, and now help thousands through my Living Lighter membership and DIY courses.
Embracing a LIGHTER way of living has been so fulfilling! Getting curious about minimalism— the intentional pursuit of focusing on what matters most by removing the distractions that REMOVE one from life—changed everything for the better.
Today, its been an incredible honor to have helped thousands through my Living Lighter membership & DIY courses tackle their clutter, un-complicate their lives, and lose their excess mental, emotional and physical weight for good.

“Heather has a way of shining light on the areas that trouble you and she leads you to higher ground where being YOU is such a joy. Working with Heather my weight began to drop, opportunities came my way, I began a new field of study professionally, and the love of my life appeared. Basically, my life flipped. I've released 50 lbs now. I have also lowered my blood glucose (HbA1c), lowered my cholesterol, normalized my triglycerides, and dropped several sizes.”

“Heather is loving, caring, upbeat and youthful. She brings ideas that pivot my attention, thinking and behavior, like how to show up for myself in a way that feels right and light, moves me forward, and is my own choice. We have spoken about decluttering the house, paperwork, choices of food habits, relationship issues, and life decisions. Heather helps in EVERY domain. All of this is a work in progress for me, and I’m LOVING the journey, each step of the way."

“Heather has a beautiful way of bringing lightness to all aspects of life—EVEN decluttering—something that has always felt so heavy. When looking at it through her lens, it’s so much easier to reframe and LESS really does become more. She’s helped me see that clutter isn’t just physical things—mind clutter, relationship clutter...those matter, too, and when you hone in and remove that ‘invisible’ clutter, the physical clutter becomes much easier to work through. Heather’s approach has by far been the most helpful in moving me forward.”
