Patricia Barclay, in her article titled "What We Surround Ourselves With, We Become", discusses the creation of a sacred place for yourself that you might become what you would most like to be. She discusses the physical levels and spiritual levels and how they interact together. She claims that a finished, organized, clean and colorful homes keep your inner spirit at rest allowing one to relax. She is sincere about getting rid of clutter as it will clutter up your inner spirit. She talks of redecorating and creating a space to help yourself change old behaviors and become who you want to be. Her article is purely opinion and would be an unstable base for a research paper. While an interesting topic it is not factual nor was it helpful towards my research paper.
