The best part:
The garage or spare room
These spaces often become the
“temporary storage” zone that turns
permanent. They are repeatedly 昀氀agged as
clutter hotspots in Australian reports. Start
with one corner, not the whole room.
Bonus trend: digital decluttering counts too
Digital clutter is still clutter. One Australian
report on clutter also points to digital
decluttering motivations like freeing up
storage space on devices. Try a simple
weekly reset:
• Delete 20 photos
• Unsubscribe from 5 emails
• Clear your downloads folder
Tiny, strangely satisfying.
decluttering is a mood
boost you can see
Decluttering is one of
those rare wellbeing
habits that gives you an
immediate before and
after. A clearer space
can feel calmer, more
functional, and more
“you”, which aligns
with what research
suggests about the
relationship between
home environments
and wellbeing.
If you want one
guiding principle that
actually works:
Keep what
supports
the life you
live now,
not the life
you meant to
live in 2017!
