With chaotic schedules, family and work commitments, and so much going on in our lives, getting our living spaces organized is a great way to stay on top on things and feel a little saner. Being organizing doesn’t mean your home must look like something out of a Martha Stewart magazine (although that would be nice!); the goal is to make day-to-day life more functional.
Researchers at the Princeton University Neuroscience Institute published a study in The Journal of Neuroscience that found clutter has a negative affect on our ability to focus and limits the brain’s capacity to process information.
Staying organised isn’t something that magically happens; it takes time and a bit of effort. But such a commitment can make the difference between a harmonious and peaceful home to a chaotic and stressful one.
