Clutter and mess can play a significant role in how you feel about your home, your workplace, and even yourself. Messy homes and work spaces leave you feeling anxious, unmotivated, distracted and overwhelmed. Yet, rarely is mess and clutter recognized as a significant source of stress in our lives. But it is.

Studies found that mess and clutter can increase physiological responses, including increasing your levels of cortisol, which is your stress hormone. This is important to know because even if you don’t think you’re affected by a messy environment, you are on a hormonal level and the more cortisol you have, the higher your stress and anxiety will be. 

The studies also found that negative effects on mental health due to mess and clutter particularly impact women. So ladies, listen up and men, start cleaning up for our sake.
