A Note from Erin
”A few times a month I share a little more of my world and handy design advice - including my favorite organizing tips for your entire house, and yes, I use these tips myself, (have I mentioned yet that I’m a little OCD?) So, if you’re looking for a little extra somethin’ to brighten your day (and your home), then let's get to it!”
Research supports clearing your personal space! Here are just a few reasons…
Research shows that women who have more clutter in their homes have higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
A study in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin found that women who described their living spaces as cluttered were more likely to be fatigued and depressed than women who described their homes as restful and restorative.
People who sleep in a cluttered room are more likely to have difficulties sleeping through the night or falling asleep.
Having your home cluttered can lead to a constant low-grade fight or flight response, taxing your usual designed resources for survival. This response is crucial, as it triggers physical and psychological changes that affect how to fight illnesses and digest food, leaving you at greater risk for heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
