March 8th is International Women’s Day and we want to recognise how far women have come in the past century. Then we’ll give you some tips that everyone — regardless of gender — can use when trying to figure out how to reduce anxiety around keeping your house clean while managing a busy and full lifestyle.

Here are some cleaning tips for Women’s Day:

1. Start with Decluttering: Begin by decluttering your space. Get rid of any unnecessary items to create a clean and organized environment.
2. Create a Schedule: Make a cleaning schedule for the day, dividing tasks into manageable chunks. Prioritize areas that need the most attention.
3. Use Natural Cleaners: Opt for eco-friendly and natural cleaning products to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals. Vinegar, baking soda, and lemon are great alternatives.
4. Focus on High-Traffic Areas: Concentrate on cleaning high-traffic areas like the kitchen, bathroom, and living room. These spaces tend to accumulate the most dirt and grime.
5. Pay Attention to Detail: Don’t overlook the details. Wipe down surfaces, clean under furniture, and dust hard-to-reach areas to ensure a thorough clean.
6. Organize Storage Spaces: Take some time to organize closets, cabinets, and storage spaces. Donate or recycle items you no longer need to create more space and reduce clutter.
7. Freshen Up Fabrics: Wash curtains, pillow covers, and rugs to freshen up your space. Consider using scented fabric softeners or essential oils for a pleasant aroma.
8. Involve the Family: Get the whole family involved in the cleaning process. Assign tasks according to age and ability, making it a team effort.
9. Reward Yourself: Once the cleaning is done, take some time to relax and reward yourself for your hard work. Treat yourself to a nice bath, a cup of tea, or some well-deserved rest.

Remember, Women’s Day is about celebrating women’s achievements and contributions, so don’t forget to take care of yourself amidst the cleaning tasks. Happy Women’s Day!
