Don’t try to filter everything at once. Pick two or three things that bug you the most. For me, it was all those “Your package is on its way” emails from Amazon. I now have a “Ship Happens” folder, and I only look at it when I’m expecting something exciting.
If you want to be extra warm and fuzzy, name your folders something that makes you chuckle. Instead of “Promotions,” try “Treat Yourself Later.” Instead of “Bills,” try “Adulting Time.” Those little personal touches make the process feel less like work and more like self-care.
