10 Ways To Declutter Your Mind
- 2. 1 CLEAN UP YOUR PHYSICAL SPACE
- 3. Do it little by little. Work on your problem areas or the space you spend the most time in. At least create a clean and organized space to gather yourself and de-stress each day. There’s no doubt that physical clutter contributes to mental and emotional clutter.
- 5. This is one of the simplest and most effective ways to visualize what’s swirling around in your head. Once it’s on paper, it might not feel so overwhelming. You can keep track of to-do lists, social obligations, calendars, and so much more. All it takes is a notebook and a pen.
- 7. Being immersed in massive landscapes has a great ability to make our problems feel a little smaller and bit more manageable. The outdoors are therapeutic for many reasons. Think about implementing more intentional outdoors time into your life.
- 9. You’re subjecting yourself to a constant influx of other people’s ideas, opinions and biases which inherently impacts our own ideas and thoughts. While television seems like a good way to settle the brain and wind down, it’s doing quite the opposite.
- 10. 5 GO MINIMALIST
- 11. Whether you’re addressing material objects or stray thoughts, this elimination process will do your brain some serious good. Minimalism entails thinking about what you really need and want.
- 13. Be realistic about what you need to do versus what you’d like to do, and set aside time for yourself above all. If you want to declutter your mind, vow to do a little less.
- 14. 7 TALK IT OUT
- 15. Verbalizing our thoughts and feelings prevents the classic problem of bottling up everything inside, only for it to explode later. Talking to people allows us perspective as we can receive feedback that isn’t so clouded by our own brain junk.
- 17. It doesn’t have to be done in grand gestures. Simply smiling more often at others can help you feel better Whether or not you believe in karma, you can be sure that helping out others can give you some peace of mind.
- 19. Along with having this realistic vision, another decluttering skill would be to focus on one thing at a time. Even if you’re the ‘to-do list master,’ nothing beats a clear and streamlined vision of where you’re going.
- 20. 10 DO NOTHING AT ALL
- 21. Whatever it is, it might be worth it. If your mind is facing big clutter issues, trying to be productive can be very counterproductive. Sometimes, the best advice is to do nothing. Take a nap. Sit on the couch. Take a bath. Meditate.
