text: I do not really buy this cult of "room-cleaning" or keeping only those items that "sparks joy". Usually, a disorganized living space is a symptom of the owner's unmet basic needs like healthy diet, medical need/disability, social needs for love and companionship, a sense of security. Humans have a hierarchy of needs. 
  
  Often we point fingers at those whose space is untidy and yell "GET YOURSELF SORTED OUT" but this is equivalent to victim blaming and punishment by assigning busywork. My evidence comes from reading Victor Frankl's book Man's Search for Meaning. When Frankl was working as a doctor in the typhus block he "...was responsible to the camp authorities for keeping the hut clean. The pretense at cleanliness inspection was pure torture than hygiene when more food and a few drugs would have helped."(according to the author's own words)
