You may find it hard to believe, but keeping your home clean and clutter-free has positive effects on your overall well-being, and science can prove it.<\/p>\n

We get it \u2013 moping the floor, cooking dinner, doing the laundry as well as full-time work can be overwhelming at times. That said, having a proper organisation plan for daily chores will free you up and make your life a little less stressful.<\/p>\n

Often, it\u2019s a matter of motivation. Staying on top of all the chores needs some ambition and drive. We have listed the top three health benefits of being organised below to boost your inner Marie Kondo and get you started on your clutter-free lifestyle today!<\/p>\n

\nREDUCES STRESS AND ANXIETY<\/h3>\n

A study in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin<\/a> found that women who describe their home as \u2018cluttered\u2019 or full of \u2018unfinished projects\u2019 experience higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol. These women tend to feel more depressed and fatigued over the course of the day. By means of this study, you should feel happier and more relaxed after decluttering and organising.<\/p>\n

ClickClack\u2019s Tip:<\/strong> When putting a to-do list together, be generous with the timing. If you plan enough time for each task, the less likely it is that you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed. Also, including \u201cme-time\u201d on the list is a must!<\/p>\n

\nHELPS WITH SLEEP<\/h3>\n

If you are going to bed feeling a little guilty about the clutter in your bedroom, there\u2019s a high chance that it will negatively affect your sleep. In the bedroom, clutter influences you unconsciously (or consciously), which makes you feel stressed and makes it difficult to have a good night\u2019s rest.<\/p>\n

According to a survey conducted by the National Sleep Foundation<\/a>, 73 per cent of the respondents said that fresh, clean sheets have a positive impact on their sleep experience, as it makes them feel more comfortable and 19 per cent claimed they sleep better when they have made their bed in the morning.<\/p>\n

ClickClack\u2019s Tip:<\/strong> Take five extra minutes before you go to sleep to put your clothes away and give your bedroom a quick clean up. Try to make your bed in the morning as part of your everyday routine.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

HELPS MAKE BETTER FOOD CHOICES<\/h3>\n

Meal planning promotes a healthier lifestyle, because you\u2019re well aware of what you eat, at what time and how much you\u2019re going to have \u2013 also known as mindful eating.<\/p>\n

Having a balanced, healthy diet requires forethought and organisation. We tend to buy more takeaway meals, sweets and fast food when we are not planning our meals and writing our shopping list.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, a messy room encourages unhealthy food choices. A study<\/a>, published in the Journal Environment and Behaviour, found that people who spent time in an unorganised room were twice as likely to eat a chocolate bar than an apple.<\/p>\n

ClickClack\u2019s Tip:<\/strong> Set specific times for meal planning and prepping in your calendar every week. Never go grocery shopping without a list and make this a habit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Research proves decluttering on an everyday basis can benefit your physical and mental health. Start including organisation in your day-to-day life, whether it\u2019s writing a to-do list or putting your clothes away. You\u2019ll soon feel less stressed about your chores and you\u2019re able to enjoy your surroundings while you think more efficiently and cleanly.<\/p>\n
