New Delhi: As the new year is just around the corner, you must be more focused on how to enter 2206 with clean and positive energy. Most of us try to make resolutions, focus on our goals or dream big to achieve them in the coming year, by decluttering the mess that we have created inside and out in 2025. A mindful declutter may not only be the one with your room, home or space, but also means fresh energy, cleaning your emotional space and making space for a more positive and lively attitude to welcome new things.

Whether you live in a small apartment or a spacious home, each place needs to be clean and filled with positive energy for thoughts to run. If you let go of the things that are no longer required, you make space for the new ones. Here are things that you need not enter in 2026 and leave out of your home for a fresh and energised attitude.

Check for kitchen jars, condiments, tea blends or seasoning that may have expired and should be thrown out. Cleaning the kitchen energises the heart and encourages you to live healthily.

Remove the pile of clothes that you think are worn out, torn, not fit you or suit your style. We may hang on to things for a long time for memories, but curating a clean and fresh wardrobe leads to confidence.

Expired skincare or makeup products, products that may make you look bad or do not suit your skin. Keep essentials and enjoy the art of minimal collection.

Unsubscribe from newsletters that you do not require, delete the apps which consume your time more than required and do not provide fruitful results, and organise cloud storage for a more mindful relationship with technology.

Broken items such as lamps, watches or hobby tools or gifts that are no longer needed must be thrown out or given away. They may consume the energy, and if not repaired or used in the last 6 months, you must let go.

Cut off the friendships that do not value you, let go of the things that damage you emotionally, or where you feel detached. Emotional space for fresh beginnings helps to think with a clear mind.

Decluttering not only means clearing your house or wardrobe, but also means going off the thoughts that stress you or the relations that are worn off and are no longer requiring your energy.
