"When your belongings are in their rightful place, you can reduce the overwhelming feeling of having to put everything away, which can then help you find things when you need them."
While some people love to organize, others thin it is a chore. Many patients are surprised to hear the number of health benefits associated with an organized life.
According to WebMD, taking a few minutes to organize your space during a slump in your day can give you a much-needed energy boost. Allowing yourself to finish your day by getting your desk or workspace organized can help you work more efficiently the next day, and help you have peace of mind to relax at the end of the day.
Interestingly, a study from Psychological Science found people who are organized also have better-eating habits. Avoid snacking on junk food at their desk by keeping it free from clutter. It is more likely you might opt-in for an apple than that candy bar. As we know, one good choice often leads to another!
Brushing up on your organizational skills can positively impact your sleep. This benefit is twofold.
A clutter-free space is more relaxing and invites rest. Additionally, being organized will prevent you from lying awake thinking about all the things to be done tomorrow.
This leads to the no brainer, being organized reduces stress. How many times are you in a rush but can't find something you're looking for? This sets a negative tone for the rest of the day. According to a study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, people with cluttered homes were depressed, fatigued, and had higher cortisol levels.
"Who would have thought tidying up
could improve your life, right?!"
"Save time! Get organized to allow you
to the things you'd rather be doing."
