Feel Good about your Home, Mind and Body

The bright sunlight coming seeping through as you pull your curtains, the fresh breeze making its way through the open windows, the birds chirping so happily and the blossoming of plants, that sounds, looks and feels like Spring!

Every new season allows you to enjoy life in a different and unique way. Throughout the winter season, we prepare our bodies accordingly so that we look good in crop tops, skirts and shorts in summer. It has become customary that in spring, we spring clean our lives, holistically. Our minds, bodies and homes need the extra attention, this, however, comes with every season but in spring, how else will you enjoy the sunlight, fresh breeze and birds happily chirping if you are buried under boxes of clutter?

It is important that you remain season healthy and this is how you can ensure that you are equipped with everything you need to enjoy this season:

Tip #1: Spring Clean Your Life

Identify areas in your life that require extra attention. You do normal cleaning every so often, but have you moved the tv stand to see which spider has created a home there, or worse, leftover sandwich under your child’s bed, just because they do not like an egg-mayo-sarmie?

Spring cleaning your life will help you see things differently, most probably even enjoy them more and boost your health. There are many benefits to spring cleaning your life and these are some of the few that can help you spring into a brighter new day:

Clean Your Immune Health

While you should aim to clean regularly to avoid immune system triggers, spring-cleaning can be an opportunity for a deep clean, according to Wendy Bazilian, DrPH, RD, an expert in public health and nutrition. 

Vacuum, wash and wipe in all corners and areas of your house to enhance the freshness that is locked in your room when the windows are closed.

Spring cleaning helps to prevent illnesses, we have learned this very well during COVID-19 and the last thing we want is an outbreak of a lifestyle illness.

Clean Your Home

De-cluttering is very important. Everything that you do not need for the rest of the year, those boxes of blankets can be stored at a self-storage facility so that you have more space in your house, to enjoy your décor, the beauty and spacious living space you actually have, apart from all the clutter that has gathered over the months and years. As yourself, do I need this now?

Reduce the risk of injury, with things lying around, you could easily get an ‘Ouchy’ and how will the kids play around the house safely?

Clean Your Bodies

The engine that fuels all that you need to get things done is your body. The best thing you can do for your body is exercise; prescribed as the best medication for almost everything. Spring cleaning has as many benefits for your ‘Summer Body’ as it does for your home. Studies show there’s a correlation between keeping a clean home and being active and choosing healthier food options. “When we clear out in the physical realm, it can inspire to begin to cut out what no longer serves us, such as unhealthy relationships, or our relationship to food, technology, or other substances,” Wolanin said.
