Clean House, Clear Mind
Believe it or not, the average person spends two years of their life cleaning! And if you’re like most of them, you don’t get excited about it — in fact, you might even dread it.
However, routine cleaning is an important part of living independently. It benefits your physical health by removing viruses and bacteria, preventing food contamination, decreasing pest infestations, minimizing allergic reactions, and reducing triggers for asthma and breathing issues.
Plus, it also improves your mental health and sense of well-being! Having a clean home helps reduce stress, improves focus, enhances your mood, and gives you a wonderful sense of accomplishment. It’s true what they say: Clearing clutter in your home can help reduce clutter in your mind, and that always feels great!
While you may not love cleaning, it doesn’t have to be a terrible or difficult experience. There are so many products available today to make cleaning your home easier, even for those with disabilities, as well as tricks for scheduling and keeping up with cleaning tasks.
In this section, we’ll offer information about what needs to be cleaned and how often, tools to try, and hacks for making cleaning more manageable.
