Do you find yourself unable to relax in your own home? Your home should be your place of peace, your sanctuary, but instead you feel anxious and easily distracted. What’s up? It may be your stress level! Chances are your clutter is at an all time high, the blinds need to be dusted, and the carpet needs to be deep-cleaned. Are we right? If you can’t even unwind in your own home, where can you?
It may come as a surprise to hear that the condition of your home can play a huge role in how we feel about ourselves.

If you can relate to any (or all) of these stressful situations, start by making these simple DIY cleaning tips a habit so you don’t become overwhelmed when it comes to house cleaning chores:
- Spot clean
Everyone makes little messes throughout the day and cleaning as you go will prevent messes from building up into unmanageable situations. A good rule of thumb: If it takes less than two minutes, do it now. When you go to unload the dishwasher and noticed the door needs to be wiped down, take the extra minute to clean it.
- Clean out the junk
While you are on hold on phone or have a spare minute, clean out the kitchen junk drawer, throw out expired items in the pantry, or remove the shoes that have gathered in the family room. Recruit and reward your family members for doing the same.
- Store cleaning supplies in the bathroom
This makes it easy to use (and less of a process) when the floor could use a quick mop. Using disinfecting wipes on the sink or counter between deep cleans will make it seem more manageable, as well.
- Use the suction attachment to clean surfaces
Oftentimes, places such as lamp shades and electronics bring about the most dust bunnies. Dusting should be the first thing you do when you start cleaning. If you clean the floors before dusting, you’ve only created more work for yourself.
- Vacuum in the high traffic areas frequently
This is a good habit to have and will prevent from dirt building up. Being proactive will pay off in the long run and keep your stress levels down.
- Clean after every meal
The kitchen is the heart of your home. Cleaning the pots and pans and clearing plates off the table and into the dishwasher will save you from having a dirty dish overload. Kitchens are prone to bacteria growth, so get everyone who ate to help wipe down counter tops and sweep up crumbs.
- Make Time
We’ve heard every excuse in the book for putting off the cleaning chores. You’re thinking about the long list of things to do at work, getting your kids to practice on time, and what to make for dinner. Take the ‘divide and conquer’ approach instead of the ‘I’ll get to it later’ approach.
These simple DIY steps will help keep your house clean and ultimately, your anxiety levels low. The cleanliness of your house can be easily managed if you take it one day at a time and know when it’s time to call in the professionals for certain situations. Hiring a professional cleaning service will help you get your house back in order so you can spend your free time doing the things you love. So, save the guilt and embarrassment for those unfortunate situations that you can’t control, not your home’s cleanliness.
