The reason for this is because there’s so much going on around you, that all your thoughts will be overloaded with the pressure to tidy up, or distracted by the disorder. When you are surrounded with physical mess you’ll be less motivated and more prone to procrastination. When you remove these distractions, notice how much more you achieve, and take advantage of that extra time for resting. You may already know that one of the number one reasons for procrastination is having distractions. From a hygienic perspective, the cleaner the space, the less likely you are to suffer with bugs or bacteria, thus promoting a healthier you. It also feels great to live in a place where the floor is clean and you’re not falling over that lost pair of shoes.
It gives you a sense of feeling clean, and allows you to concentrate on you time when your thoughts are organized. Maintaining clean physical space is a way to show yourself self-love. This confirmed that a clear space promotes a clear mind.
I noticed that she was more motivated to focus on her personal tasks. She reported that not only was it nice and calming to come home after a long day to a clean home, but she was also better equipped to concentrate on her homework once she was able to sit at her desk again. She successfully kept her room organized and clean that week. I was excited to see how it would turn out, to see if I wasn’t the only one who felt the benefits. The second part of the assignment was for her to do her homework in her room at her desk which is usually covered in clutter. I challenged my best friend (whose room does not feature on the clean spectrum) to clean and organize the physical space she lives in for a week. As I’ve grown up I’ve come to appreciate the impact clean space has on allowing me to focus more clearly on my personal projects and procrastinate less. As a kid, tidying my room was not negotiable! I may have neglected to realize the importance of this chore until recently. Being raised in a Latin family, cleaning my room was as important as eating my daily rice and beans. A Challenge from a Yogi to You: A Clean Space Promotes a Clean MindĬlearing out my physical space has resulted in a dramatic shift in mental clarity. By altering my attitude towards a messy room and being proactive in tidying, I’ve noticed a huge transformation in my mental state. However, have you ever considered the connection between a messy room and a messy mind? Physical spaces can affect our physiological patterns. We’ve all been there – putting off tidying until a later date. What about that huge pile of clothes that’s in the way though? “Oh but I’m so tired, I’ll clean it up tomorrow.” Does this sound familiar? When you return home after a long day at work day and don’t want to do anything but lay down on your bed.
