The Real Reason You Can’t Let Go of Clutter a Four‑Decades Expert Explains

Описание: The accumulation of clutter can often be attributed to psychological factors, cultural habits, and consumerist behavior. One significant psychological aspect is emotional attachment. We often form strong emotional attachments to possessions, imbuing them with sentimental value that prevents disposal.

• Why clutter is truly postponed decisions — and how that insight transforms everything.
• The surprising emotional roots of clutter (even for high‑achievers).
• Her breakthrough systems for finding instead of filing.
• How physical clutter intertwines with spiritual and emotional life.
