I've been thinking a lot about the correlation between clutter and loneliness. I speak to so many clients who are suffering from loneliness and often one the significant factors contributing to their loneliness is the clutter in their house.
- Do you avoid having people over because you're ashamed of the state of your home?
- Do you avoid going out because you feel bad that you should instead be tidying up?
- Do you say no to invites to other people's homes because you know you can't reciprocate?
- Do your children not have play dates because you don't want the parents seeing your home?
Although you might not instantly draw the line between clutter and loneliness, once you see it you realise the power it holds over so many people's lives. Loneliness is a silent killer and if by engaging in decluttering (or making peace with the clutter) you can reduce your social isolation then I think it's definitely a conversation we should be having.
