Appreciation post: The case for non-minimalist sleep aids in a decluttered space
Everyone champions a Spartan bedroom for better sleep, but my insomnia didn't improve until I introduced a white noise machine and blackout curtains that some might call 'clutter'. For me, the auditory and visual control these items provide far outweighs the minimalist ideal of an empty room. Without them, the silence and light disruptions kept me awake, proving that personal health needs can trump aesthetic purity. Minimalism should adapt to support wellness, not dictate it.
