At the end of each year, it’s easy to get flustered about which resolutions to work on in the year ahead.
Sometimes, it can be advantageous to save yourself the stress and ditch resolutions altogether. However, there might be a few changes that you want to make, and decluttering your living space can be a great way to reorganize several aspects of your life.
Here are three easy steps to improve not only your physical space, but your mental well-being in the new year:
Minimize your interior
When you own less, there’s less to manage and stress over. Start with the room in your home that feels the most crowded. Donate any knick-knacks or clothes that no longer serve a purpose, throw out or recycle any piles of paper or magazines that may be needlessly hanging around, and address any items of furniture that may be past their prime. Researchers say that having a well-organized space that is free from clutter can make you feel less anxious and stressed, which is the best kind of way to start a new year.
Maximize your space
Sometimes the decluttering process leads to the need to purchase a new item or two to fit your newly elevated lifestyle. Oftentimes, parting with an old, rundown piece of furniture like a bed means you’ll likely want to replace it with something newer. And unless you plan to sleep on the floor, that means taking the time to search for something that fits your lifestyle and budget. While searching for a new bed might not be the most exciting of exercises, it doesn’t have to be difficult.

Cultivate a healthy lifestyle
Adopting the first two steps can be a fantastic catalyst for not only mental well-being, they can set you up to make healthier, more mindful choices for yourself throughout the day. Not stressing about your space is a great way to free up mental energy and if you do replace your bed, a good night’s rest is always a kickstarter to a great day ahead, giving you the energy to tackle whatever challenges come your way.
If you’re tired of being bogged down by resolutions that are impossible to keep, try some simple ways to declutter and reorganize your life. You’ll be glad you did.
