The floors are mopped! The dishes are put away! The house is CLEAN!

But is it decluttered? If it isn’t, your work isn’t done quite yet, I’m sorry to say. Getting rid of the piles of “stuff” invading your physical surroundings is therapeutic and necessary, as it can help increase your productivity and concentration, and – believe it or not – it can have a positive impact on your overall health. Also, things will be easier to find when you don’t have junk everywhere!
