How the Brain is Affected by Disorganization by Suzanne Evola

Becoming an organized person means doing deep reflection and then making the stuff you have align with who you are.

True organization is a mental state and a way of thinking.

We are all products of our environments, and vice versa, since the environments we create reflect and affect our physical, mental, and emotional health. When life becomes messy or disorderly, our physical as well as mental/emotional health can also get muddled and we become less energetic and less efficient. An excellent example of this is the digestive system...

You deserve an environment that improves your quality of life, not hinders it. Treat yourself to a space that makes you smile, makes you feel accomplished, and brings peace of mind.

A messy, disorganized home can cost you more than just your inner peace.

Just like driving a race car, a lot of skills are required. Fortunately, these skills are built into the brain's normal wiring. So how do you start to tap into your innate ability to be organized?

" I hate belongings. I hate clutter. It really bothers me because I can't think properly. If you've got distractions in front of you, your mind goes buts."

I have personal issues with clutter. I, personally, am very minimalist and like a clean slate. I like to throw everything away.

"Clutter is stuck energy. The word "clutter" derives from the Middle English work "clotter," which means to coagulate and that's about as stuck as you can get."

Intro

Hi Everyone!

Well here we are a little over the half-way mark through the first semester and we bet that like us, you too have no time to get organized. Suzanne is a social worker/case manager and Sandra is a child welfare social worker in a rural county, and we also have lives outside of work just as you all do. So, you may ask, why can’t we just live with our organized chaos? It’s kind of working so far, right?

We decided that since others before us have shown clearly how to get organized, what to do, and how to do it, we would answer another question; Why? Why should we change our ways now? Well, turns out there are compelling reasons to do so, and some can have lasting effects on our health as well as our relationships.

We hope you enjoy our presentation and find your own reasons for finally Being Organized!
