The 15-Minute Fix for Decluttering Your Home | Wellness Tips for a Calm Home | EP236
Episode 236
Thursday, 8 October, 2026
If you open a closet and feel your shoulders tighten, there is a reason. Studies link clutter and cortisol, the body's main stress hormone. That means the pile on the kitchen counter may be adding to the weight you carry every day. Decluttering your home is one of the few wellness levers fully in your control, and it can start smaller than you think. One drawer and a timer might be enough.On Wellness Junkies, Amy Sherman sits down with Shira Gill, organizing expert and bestselling author of Minimalista, Organized Living, and LifeStyled. Shira hears one word in nearly every email she gets, and it says a lot about clutter and mental health. She also explains why she doesn't believe in organized or disorganized people, and why your home organization plan should not begin at the Container Store.You'll hear the 15-minute win Shira uses to get anyone moving, plus the one question she says beats "could this be useful?" She shares how she handled an entire house full of her late father's belongings and decided what was truly meaningful enough to keep, and the room she suggests starting with first. Amy also gets honest about her two nemeses, mail and a bathroom full of products, and Shira offers practical wellness tips for both.Press play if you're ready to start decluttering your home without the overwhelm and build a calm home that gives you energy back.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Meet Organizing Expert Shira Gill01:37 The First Step Before You Start Organizing03:31 Clutter, Cortisol, and Mental Health05:24 The 15-Minute Win for Decluttering Your Home08:57 Letting Go of Sentimental Items Without Guilt11:47 The Question That Decides What Stays16:05 From Layoff to Bestselling Organizing Author23:37 Tackling Kitchen Clutter, Mail, and Wires35:47 How to Organize a Bathroom Full of Products44:39 Where to Start When You Feel Overwhelmed49:57 Shira's Water, Sleep, and Mascara RoutineShop this episode: You know we love to give you the best of the best in wellness products and resources to help you learnmore about our podcast topics.
