Spring-cleaning your home is rote for the turn of the season, but you might not realize that the physical clutter and dirt that accumulates in your living space also can sully your spirit. “We all have to manage some stress and anxiety in our lives, it’s a natural part of living,” says Jameson Mercier, Ph.D., a licensed clinical social worker. “However, being intentional about how much clutter you allow in your [physical] space minimizes the amount of stress and anxiety you have to deal with and allows you to prioritize what is important.”

Use these tips to clean and purify your spaces, and transform your home into an uplifting and clutter-free sanctuary.
