Keep your rooms decluttered
As I said at the beginning of this article, the more cluttered your home is, the more stressed and less happy with your house you will be.

“When [clutter] becomes excessive, it can threaten to physically and psychologically entrap a person in dysfunctional home environments which contribute to personal distress and feelings of displacement and alienation,” the study reads.
