The season cleaning has to be done. You postpone it or you hope to be done by someone else (unfortunately this does not happen very often). At one point you inevitably face the need to grab the mop and the duster. The season cleaning gives us a new beginning both literally and figuratively. So, mind the following 8 reasons why we should clean periodically our homes.
1. Clean up your terrace. Get rid of the lumber and you could drink your tea there or just enjoy the pure air. If you are able to spend some money on it, do it! Buy some pots of flowers and turn your porch into a real oasis.
2. Home fitness. Get off the chair. Now get onto the chair. Stretch your body in order to reach the little stain on the cupboard! Hurry up! This sounds like home fitness training program but it is not. This is your inner voice which insists on doing the domestic work that actually turns out to be an effective training for your body.
3. Remove the dust. Clean the furniture thick with dust and you will take a step to healthy life. The dust we breathe at home every day is a cause for discomfort, illnesses and allergies.
4.Cleaning as a therapy. Some experts recommend the cleaning when we feel angry or depressed. Focus on the patch in the bathroom, clean it up using your extra energy and you will see that this will ease the tension. Try it!
5. Clean with pleasure. Make a playlist with energetic songs or just play your favourite music album (I don’t recommend you this one with the ballad songs). Listen to the music while cleaning, you can also dance if you want! Some people clean and study foreign languages at the same time. While you are cleaning the windows play the self-study audio CD and improve your language skills. You could learn only 10 new words, but this would be an advance.
6. Arrange the wardrobe. This has its advantages. It will make you ready for the next season. You will be prepared for the hot summer or the cold winter, it depends on the season that comes next. Another reason why you should arrange your wardrobe is that it would be easier for you to dress in the morning. You won’t spend too much time searching for the proper tog.
7. The house changes. The time has come to rearrange the furniture or to change the accessories in the interior design of your home. When you do this, your home will look like a new one.
8. The cleaning of your house could help you find things you had lost long time ago. Yes, here is the earring I was searching for after the last party at home. It’s been here all the time – behind the bookshelf. I saved money for a new pair of earrings.
Please, do not be selfish. Make your family members participate in the work. And if you find another positive reason for putting your home in order feel free to share it with us.
