“With something interesting for my brain to focus on, the mindless movements of sweeping or doing dishes are almost soothing.” - KC Davis, LPC additu.de/housecleaning

Our January decluttering month gives you a great opportunity to make some progress on decluttering your home and build a daily decluttering and organizing habit.

This month of simple ideas focuses on resetting your house after the holidays and making a little progress in all of the different rooms. The goal, as always, is to do a little bit every day. January is the perfect time to start decluttering and slowly, but surely, create more space and organization in your home.

“We are mirrors, he and I. His reflection shows me the parts of myself I used to hide and the parts I am finally learning to love. When I help him find calm, I find it too. When I remind him that being different is not wrong, I believe it a little more for both of us.”

The Energy Audit: Remove What Drains You Before the New Year

Audit these four areas and clear what no longer serves you:

1. Physical

Half-used products you never reach for

Clothes that don’t fit your life anymore

Digital clutter: unused apps, old screenshots, duplicate files

Late-night habits that wreck your sleep and mood

2. Mental

Projects you keep thinking about but will never actually do

Open tabs and unfinished tasks stealing mental bandwidth

News or content that spikes stress instead of clarity

Should-do lists that need pruning to essentials

3. Emotional

People you tiptoe around or always explain yourself to

Conversations you replay in your head that stop you from moving forward

Guilt over past choices that cannot be changed

Unspoken boundaries that need to be set, or reinforced

4. Environmental

Rooms that overwhelm you the moment you enter

Spaces without systems (kitchen counters, bedside tables, work desk)

Visual noise: excess decor, outdated paperwork, gifts you kept out of obligation

Notifications that interrupt focus and recovery time

How to do it this week

Choose one category per day

Remove 5 items (physical or digital)

Close 3 open loops (tasks you keep avoiding)

Set 1 boundary that protects your time, sleep, or energy

Outcome
Lighter mind, calmer space, sharper focus when January begins.
