As the weather gets warmer, the flowers begin to bloom and the days get longer, it’s important to freshen up you & your home! It may sound cliche, but spring cleaning is a great part of the new season & gives you and your family a fresh start. 

If you struggle with seasonal allergies, a proper deep clean is even more important to prevent symptoms, and get you feeling healthy through all seasons! 

Use These 10 Tips as a Checklist for the New Season

1. Declutter Your Home

First thing’s first! Start your spring cleaning by going through each room in your home and decluttering your space before you are able to fully clean & organize. 

2. Go Through Your Closet

Start the season off by going through your closet and cleaning anything out that you haven’t worn in the past six months to one year. Box or bag your unwanted items and pay it forward by donating them to your local shelter or Goodwill. 

3. Create a Schedule

Don’t stress yourself out by trying to tackle everything in one day or one weekend! Instead, create a spring cleaning schedule to organize one room or space at a time. 

4. Reorganize Your Office 

A clean office is an important part of having a productive space to work for and achieve your goals. Minimize your space by keeping only necessities and make the goal to keep a quiet & organized office. 

5. Dust to Prevent Seasonal Allergies

To prevent seasonal allergies and getting sick, be sure to dust your home weekly or biweekly. Make it a part of your weekly routine by forming the habit to dust after you change your sheets or towels. 

6. Evaluate Your Nutrition

As the seasons change, your body has different needs… but will consistently crave premium nutrition! As winter ends, it’s still important to support your immune system and it’s extra important to stay hydrated.

7. Clean Your Fridge

Spend an hour or two cleaning out your fridge and pantry for a fresher kitchen space. Then, reward your work by going grocery shopping to stock up on healthy, nutritious foods! 

8. Create the Habit to Make Your Bed Everyday

If you don’t already, start making your bed each and every day as one of the first things you do in the morning. This will start your day off in an organized way and make it that much sweeter when you get to crawl into bed each night!

9. Clean Your Patio 

Spring means finally getting to use the outdoor patio or deck more often! Freshen up your outdoor space by cleaning, re-painting or touching up some spots & buying some new chair cushions. 

10. Freshen Up Your Personal Items

Every season, it’s important to wash your makeup brushes, buy fresh face towels, pillowcases and sheets. As simple as it seems, it will give you a refreshing feeling during intimate moments of doing your makeup, skincare routine and sleep cycle.
