One of the biggest negatives of having clutter is that it can increase the amount of stress you have, which, for most of us, we don’t need any more stress in our lives. Stress can lead to actual structural negative changes in your brain, which can lead to chronic stress. Chronic stress has many negative effects on our bodies. You know when you are focused at work or at home that you can get a lot done. However, on those days where you have lost focus or you have a log going on, you get considerably less done. Clutter in your home takes away from your brain’s ability to focus as it is subconsciously thinking of clutter. Society today propounds that you “can have it all.” This entails a great career, perfect kids, time with friends, fun activities, and an immaculate home. When you realize that you can’t have it all, feelings of depression can creep in, as well as feelings of shame, inadequacy, or a downright failure. Let’s face it, the more stuff you own, the more time it takes to maintain all of it since everything made by man will break down eventually. It takes time to repair your clutter and energy to take care of it. Plus, the more stuff you have, the less freedom you have. You have to work harder to own more stuff that takes away your ability to do other stuff.
