Without even realizing, a lot of our time can be spent tidying up the house which could be spent doing different things and having your time better balanced. You do however want the house to be clean, so a good compromise can be to do a deep clean every other week to ensure it’s all tidy, then just doing smaller top up cleans as the week goes on.

This is important to keep yourself relaxed and happy and be able to face the daily challenges and tasks that might come your way. This could be something as simple as having a bubble bath and reading a book, going out for a coffee or heading to the gym. All you need to do is make sure it’s something you enjoy and can unwind to.
