Spring into action and clear away the clutter

It is important to remember that when it comes to spring cleaning, it’s not just about making your home neat and tidy; there are also several health benefits as well

The days are growing longer and the weather is getting warmer which means it is the perfect time to do a spot of spring cleaning.

Unfortunately, the thought of going from room to room and clearing out clutter is not everyone’s idea of fun. For many, they would prefer flopping down on the couch and binge watching series and movies.

However, it is important to remember that when it comes to spring cleaning, it’s not just about making your home neat and tidy; there are also several health benefits as well.

Out of sight, out of mind

There is definitely an element of truth to this proverb and by decluttering your home, you are also calming your thoughts and clearing your mind.

If you’re still not convinced to get off the couch, here are some other health benefits:

  • Cleaning and organizing the space where you live and work helps to reduce stress and anxiety.
  • According to studies, working in a clean and neat environment can help boost creativity.
  • Cleaning and house work is considered a form of exercise and by moving around, it can boost your mood and help ease depression. Exercise also provides a healthy boost to the immune system. This is a major benefit considering medical experts are talking about a fourth wave in the Covid-19 pandemic. So, instead of spending money on a gym contract, get your body and mind in order with a little spring cleaning.
  • By having less items lying around, it will make cleaning surfaces easier and this reduces the build-up of dust, dirt and bacteria.
  • Decluttering your home helps reduce the risk of injury. If you have too many things lying around, you run the risk of tripping, falling and hurting yourself. By clearing things away, you have more space to move around.

You’ve cleaned out the clutter, now what?

Once your home is decluttered, if you have any kitchen appliances or household items which you no longer use, don’t just stack them in the garage to gather dust. Rather sell them at Cash Converters and let the staff find new homes for you previous owned goods.
