What is the word or phrase that describes the feeling of well-being or satisfaction from an act (for example spring cleaning)

I am undergoing a rigorous "spring cleaning" exercise, where I am either donating to charity, selling on eBay or simply throwing away old possessions.

Having cleared out an entire room that was filled with boxes it felt "good" / satisfying or perhaps gave me a sense of well-being that wasn't present before.

Is there a word or phrase that describes this? other than "feels good" ?

Thanks!
