Too many objects cluttering your visual field makes your mind work overtime to make sense of it all. Eliminating Clutter Stressĭid you know that living in a mess can increase your stress? Clutter causes psychological distraction and distress in several ways. Physical activity helps to moderate your ANS responses and return you to a calm state. These two halves usually work in harmony, but trauma upsets the balance. This system has two branches - the sympathetic, which inspires fight-or-flight, and the parasympathetic, spurring rest-and-digest. Research indicates you store trauma in your body through your autonomic nervous system (ANS). The movement itself involved in spring cleaning can improve your mental health. Are you still clinging to your old wedding gown three years after your divorce? Instead of keeping that ghost in your closet, why not donate it while imagining the joy on a young bride’s face when she finds the perfect dress for pennies on the dollar? However, letting go of old memories and processing trauma can be highly therapeutic. Some people develop hoarding disorder after a stressful life event like a house fire where they lost everything. Many people procrastinate spring cleaning because they can’t stand the thought of parting with objects that once brought them joy - or that they hoped would. Letting Go of Old Memories and Processing Trauma Therefore, honestly ask yourself how those clothes make you feel. You most frequently see this phenomenon when people talk about needing a drink to take the edge off their anxiety when in reality, excess alcohol use only creates more problems and stress. The critical thing to remember is that behaviors that start with good intentions - such as buying clothes in a smaller size to inspire yourself - can become maladaptive toxic influences. What does that mean about that pair of skinny jeans you’ve hoped to squeeze into forever? While you do, use this chance to rid yourself of those things that harm your mental and physical well-being. You might start with your clothing, then move on to your kitchen utensils, your home office desk and eventually more sentimental items. Instead, take a tip from Marie Kondo, tidiness expert, and start sorting your things by category instead of location. With that in mind, why not change up your traditional room-by-room approach this year? Spring cleaning offers you the opportunity to re-evaluate what you surround yourself with and whether the habits those objects represent bring you joy. Out With the Old Negative Habits, in With the Positive Here’s how spring cleaning can improve your mental health. When you change your attitude to love and appreciation, you can see how even dusting your bookshelves qualifies as self-care. There’s something infinitely relaxing about arranging your space to please you. Are you moaning and groaning about your need to tackle spring house cleaning? Change that “have to” mindset - instead, welcome the opportunity to hit the psychological reset button. I look forward to having the chance to explain my KRAs further.It’s that time of the year again.
