Do cluttered surfaces in your bedroom effect your mood? My answer to this is, “Yes.”
You may not realize it if you are used to having lots of items on your flat surfaces in your bedroom. That seems to be a catch-all place for things.
When you clean before you have company, you put items in your bedroom.
When you don’t have a specific place for an item, it often ends up on a flat surface in your bedroom.
When you need to sort things, you use your flat surfaces.
When you mean to fold that load of clothes that you dumped on your bed during the day, it ends up on your flat surfaces.
Let’s spend a few minutes each day in our master bedrooms. Let’s declutter items. Let’s find places for the items that have found their way into our bedrooms. Let’s put all the laundry away.
You can give your children missions to declutter in their bedrooms, too.
You will sleep better and enjoy a peaceful bedroom!
