Clutter-ized

I thought that everyone already knew that clutter in one's outside environment adversely affects one's inside environment. But I was wrong. I spent most of today opening doors onto rooms and closets and attics and every-available-spaces at our new job to have things fall out on my head/foot/whatever part of me I wasn't quick enough to move. And I've been noticing that many of our new friends and colleagues are living cluttered lives. No judgement...but I am thinking of investing in a dump truck and sneaking into people's houses at night to clean and clear...

Here's what the professionals say:

Are you overwhelmed by clutter? Feeling disorganised, depressed or out of control?
If you need a reason to declutter, let me give you one major purpose - quite simply it's to FEEL BETTER!

Of course there are many others benefits.... you could also.....

- Be less stressed, because you can find things
- Have more space to move - both physical and emotional
- Stop being embarrassed by clutter
- Think more clearly
- Increase your self-esteem
- Become relaxed and peaceful
- Save money by spending less
- Gain back hours, days and years worth of time
- Cut your cleaning time by 40% or more


De-cluttering is a spiritual adventure par excellence! Trust me...
