I understand this concept, but more on the physical decluttering end of things. Although I don't consider myself a strict minimalist, I do embrace the "small house" lifestyle. I have a small home and because of that I try not to collect too much "stuff." I've found that when there's too much clutter around my dysthymia kicks into overdrive and the depression gets worse. For me an organized and uncluttered house that has some room to think puts me in a better place emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. Right now the clutter is creeping in on the tables because I've been working ridiculous hours - and I can feel myself sliding. I can't wait for fewer hours at work so I can get the house back to it's serene state.
