Hi all Now that we are almost a month in to spring in the northern hemisphere (whether your local weather matches this statement is a different story... ), I am curious to know whether anyone here adheres to the 'tradition' of spring cleaning.
Do you follow a certain pattern or trend when the seasons change (not necessarily spring itself) to help refresh and renew? This could come in so many forms, not just the literal sense of cleaning Whether it be going through all your clothes or makeup and tossing/donating (whichever is appropriate) what you do not use, starting a new skin care routine, or deep cleaning all your carpets... share your experiences!
Obviously, cleaning is an all year thing.
But this year I happen to be crawling out of a depressive pit so I decided to take sunnier days where I feel happier and better and use them to vacuum my entire room, clean the blinds, all my lamps, etc.. anything that collects dust (tissue boxes do not help my case, huge dust makers...). I also started going through clothes I no longer wear but this is a longer process for me as I have a lot of clothes and it takes a lot of energy.
As far as the little things go, I have been trying to perfect my hair and skin routine - change of season often ties in with this as my hair especially is affected by both humid and dry air. Deep down I know I should go through all of my tchotchkes too but I think I am a little too sentimental for that.
What about you? Have you done any major cleaning lately, or do you plan to start? It really helps improve your mental health, at least in my experience - although it is tiring to do it leaves a positive effect in the long run
