This is an excellent book on how to break the habit of hoarding......it has been written in but is still a very good teaching tool. I read this and took a test after to renew my nursing license.

Let me know if any one is interested.

I understand the book is taken, but could you post the title, I am in the process of trying to set up a certification agenda for a presentation, and most of the books I have looked at are not fitting the bill.

Oh my gosh.... How funny a book on hoarding ~ when books are the things I tend to hoard. (But I am getting better)

quite honestly, this is a very very sad thing----I have a friend who was a hoarder----felt very very sorry for the children.
This is an excellent book to help the horder------does not just "clean your house".....because thats only a temporary fix.

Sounds like a good book. I have some hoarding tendancies and it scares me especially after wathcing shows like Hoarders or seeing some of the homes I'm called in to help clean. Sometimes I wonder if it's genetic. My family is littered with hoarders.

I really came in to add that anyone else looking for this book might also check Amazon. They have a lot of books that can be hard to find in some areas. Might be a neat idea to find a copy of this book and start a "traveling book" thread.

I did think of the traveling book idea----but it is a book I think one really needs to own------using it for referral......it isn't a book you just read and have learned to apply. Also a serious horder would go back to it continuously for guidelines after the house is downsized of possessions and organized.

Ladies, check at Amazon.com because I believe this book is under $10.00 there, with a used one for sale for just over $5.00.

Beverly, do you still have this book available? I thought it was taken. I'm interested if you still have it. Just let me know what you are looking for. :)

Margo I am sorry I thought you were not interested in a barter when you first replied---only in reading it........I am sorry....I always take things so literal....hope you can get a copy to read.

it's ok!!! i first responded i wasnt really interested in barter-the more i thougght about it i was and when you thought nobody wanted it i piped back in!!!!!!!
one thing against me often is that i cannot post from work -----so i oftn miss out on goodies because others are available to post when i cant!!!!

im glad to know your book found a home and i am glad to have the recommendation of a title to look for---all is good!
