Happy Tuesday Here’s what making the bed does for you psychologically:
Sense of Control: Starting the day with a predictable, self-directed task provides a sense of control and stability, reducing anxiety.
“Small Win” Momentum: Completing this first task acts as a catalyst, encouraging the completion of subsequent, more difficult tasks.
Dopamine Release: The act of tidying can trigger a “feel-good” chemical (dopamine) in the brain, reinforcing the behavior and increasing motivation.
Environmental Psychology: An organized, uncluttered space promotes a calm, focused, and stress-free mindset, while returning to a made bed in the evening enhances feelings of comfort and security.
Discipline and Routine: It fosters self-discipline and is associated with higher levels of conscientiousness, which is linked to better stress management.
(Admiral William H. McRaven)
