A clean and organized home can have a profound impact on mental health and overall well-being. A clutter-free environment promotes a sense of calm and reduces stress levels. When our surroundings are tidy, it becomes easier to focus, think clearly, and feel a sense of control. Cleaning activities can also be therapeutic, providing a productive outlet for pent-up emotions and anxiety. Additionally, a clean home reduces the risk of allergens and pollutants, promoting better physical health, which in turn positively impacts mental health. Taking the time to maintain a clean home creates a nurturing space that supports relaxation, rejuvenation, and a positive mindset.

Good thing it’s never too late to start! One of the main areas that could benefit from a deep cleanse are your carpets and rugs! Did you know that many carpet warranties require you to have the carpet professionally cleaned at least once a year? Every spring you should have your carpets cleaned by a professional, who will rid them of stains, stubborn debris, and bacteria that have accumulated over the winter and early-spring. You should always use a professional steam cleaner because at home systems can leave a layer of moisture that does not get dried quickly enough. This creates an opportunity for mold to grow underneath your carpet.

Physical activity should be considered as a first-line treatment for depression and anxiety, according to a scientific review that analysed more than 95 scientific reviews involving 128,000 participants. The study found that physical activity was more effective than counselling or medication in some cases, and provided positive impacts across all studies. Shorter exercise interventions of 12 weeks or less were found to be the most effective in reducing mental health symptoms. The research highlights the need for exercise to be prioritised as a mainstay approach for managing depression and anxiety, particularly as it can make a positive change to mental health quickly.

Very often the brain and nervous system become fatigued and overloaded. Much like a computer receiving too much data all at once, the brain can become overwhelmed, slow down, or even crash. This can result in an inability to focus, brain fog, memory loss, ADD/ADHS-like symptoms, a “wired” feeling, or the inability to cope with daily life. Alternative approaches such as Biofeedback testing and treatment are highly effective in improving focus and concentration. It detects imbalances, or weaknesses, in the stress-handling areas of the body, and in turn, stimulates the affected areas to help the mind and body better function in times of overload, overwhelm, and fatigue.
