The environment you fall asleep in certainly has an impact on the quality of the rest you get. And who couldn’t use a better night’s sleep?
The hard part is finding the right routine, the most comfortable temperature, the best lighting, and a perfectly soft (or firm) mattress. The easy part — comparatively — is just making sure that your bedroom’s surfaces aren’t cluttered with things that stress you out or distract you from getting some much-needed rest.
So today, we’ll practice our 20-minute room sweep in the bedroom…
Day 9: Declutter the bedroom for 20 minutes.
We’ve done this a few times now, so you know what to do: Set a 20-minute timer and do as much as you can to get errant effects out of the bedroom before the clock runs out. It’s like your own little game show, and the prize is a less-cluttered bedroom.
When time is up, stop decluttering. Everything you picked up during your 20-minute declutter should be taken out of the room and either returned to where it belongs, or sorted out of the house (into the trash or into your “sell” and “donate” boxes).
