How A Clean Home Can Lift Your Mood
2

• For some, the act of cleaning is in many ways
  therapeutic, while for others, its a series of
  chores that are begrudgingly carried out and
  often put off until they really cant be ignored
  any longer.
• Whatever you may feel about cleaning your home,
  there can be no disputing the fact that a clean
  one can certainly help to improve the mood and
  lift spirits. A bad day at work, followed by a
  return to a messy home that smells bad and looks
  even worse, is never going to cheer you up. While
  returning to a clean home that looks and smells
  inviting, provides a welcome relief from the
  stresses and strains of work or whatever else you
  may have going on in your life.

• Which type of person are you when it comes to
  keeping a clean home?
• Do you keep on top of your housework and make
  sure that no matter how busy you are, your home
  isalways clean and tidy? Perhaps you designate
  one day a week to blitzing the place so that its
  never untidy for long? Or do you let chores build
  up because youre either or too busy or too
  unmotivated to do them, allowing your home to get
  into a real state of disarray?
• This then adds to your unwillingness to keep it
  clean, and you slowly become more and more
  depressed about how it looks?

• If youre the former type of person, then it
  seems as if you can stay on top of things and
  probably dont need any help with keeping your
  home clean and tidy. But if youre the latter
  type, then you may need a few pointers to help
  you relieve the stress of an untidy home and help
  lift your spirits.
• How you can achieve a clean home in small steps
• One of the most effective ways to keep on top of
  the cleaning schedule in your home, is to break
  all the tasks and chores down into smaller, more
  doable actions. The key is to then keep on top of
  the smaller tasks, so that they dont go on to
  become bigger tasks.

• For example, you could begin the week by doing
  one load of laundry so that you or your household
  at least have clean undergarments for the week
  ahead! If this means that you get up early to do
  it, then so be it, it will make your life so much
  easier when you get in from work or if you have a
  busy schedule that day. Ensure that there are no
  dirty pots and pans in the sink and that the
  kitchen surfaces are clean and free of too much
  clutter.
• The next day you could do another load of laundry
  if necessary, and then turn your attention to
  dusting and putting any clutter away. Storage
  boxes are a great way of removing clutter but
  having it close at hand should you need it.
  Decluttering is something thats made a whole lot
  easier if you simply put things away right after
  youve finished with them.

• Another days task could be vacuuming, and
  depending on how many carpeted floors you have,
  this might be enough for one day. Keep on top of
  your laundry, even if it means doing small loads
  several times a week, anything is better than
  having to spend your entire weekend washing,
  drying and folding laundry!
• You would probably then want to dedicate at least
  an hour one day of the week, to cleaning your
  bathroom(s), and again, if you try to keep it
  tidy and clean as you go along, you wont end up
  with a filthy bathroom that no one wants to use!

• Alternatively, call in the pros
• How about coming home to a clean and tidy mood
  lifting home every day of the week without having
  to put any effort in? Professional cleaning
  companies are perfect for those who hate
  cleaning, or who simply dont have the time to do
  it often enough. They can work as little or as
  often as you wish, and leaving the chores to
  someone else is the perfect recipe for a light
  mood and a happy home.
