Decluttering for a start

Start with just a small area or section of your room or kitchen. Even just a small area on top of your desk, or a single shelf, can work wonders.

This is because the difference can be felt surely, even say if you had just removed a pile of read (or unread) newspapers, cleared a bunch of empty bottles, or discarded some old shoes. It’s as if the air around the newly cleared space have been made lighter.

There is also a new momentum to keep decluttering. So do start, no matter how small the space.
