The Psychology of Spring Cleaning����

As we transition to spring, there’s a collective urge to embark on a whirlwind of decluttering. From purging our closets to organizing our spaces, is there a reason we feel compelled to clean around springtime?�� According to psychologists, reducing stress and feeling accomplished and happier are some of those reasons. Dr. Carrie Landin, a professor in the Graduate School of Professional Psychology, is available to discuss the psychology of spring cleaning.������
