The unbearable heaviness of clutter remains heavy on my heart.
I have witnessed countless women suffer from the unbearable heaviness of clutter.
Their suffering remains heavy on my heart…
Until the day arrives when they are set free from the clutter.
Unfortunately, many women procrastinate a very long time before they finally take action. The latest research gives us a little insight into why…
“A recent study published in Current Psychology, found a substantial link between procrastination and clutter problems. Procrastination is closely tied to clutter, because sorting through and tossing items is a task that many people find unpleasant and avoid. It takes time to file away important papers or sort through a dining room table buried under books.”
Stress is also a huge problem with clutter. We know that stress is inflammatory and causes problems with the immune system. Clutter and stress are a toxic combination.
Research shows that there is a “growing body of evidence that clutter can negatively impact mental well-being, particularly among women. Clutter can also induce a physiological response, including increased levels of cortisol, a stress hormone.”
I can give you countless reasons why I advocate for women to get organized…all of them lead to a healthier life.
