Earlier this week on the, eve of the election, I chatted about on Instagram stories about how you can use organization to help with anxiety and boy did it resonate with you all. I got so much feedback about how you all have been using organization to help with your anxiety about COVID, the election, everything going on in the world right now.
Organization is something that you can control. Something that you can see a tangible result quickly and that feels good when there is so much uncertainty in the world. Now, I am not saying to organize your whole kitchen or your whole closet on a day you are stressed but organizing something SMALL can be very therapeutic.
Since we are all still feeling stressed this week I wanted to share some small organization projects that you can tackle right away. Check out the ideas below and then tell me what you are organizing. I love seeing before and after pictures so make sure you tag me on Instagram so I can follow along with your little wins.
