Brand new cleaning, brand new you

Scrubbing floors with a brush or Saturday cleaning marathons like your grandma used to do? That’s so 20th century.
Modern cleaning is more about maintaining your beautiful home, takes less time and follows your individual schedule. And best of all: it does not have to be perfect, just follow your own instincts.
Modern Cleaning needs modern tools, though.

Here’s all you need for your start ...​​​​​​​

Create new cleaning rituals

Create new cleaning rituals

Did you know it takes only 30 days to create a new habit or break an old one – but only if you have a positive view at the time? A new beginning in a beautiful home is the best time to create new rituals and to maintain your happiness.
​​​​​​​Here are a few tips:

Morning Lark? 5 minutes tidy session!
Depending on how much time you have in the morning, spending five minutes cleaning will make a huge difference. Just make the bed, wipe down the shower, empty the dishwasher and put a few things away to start your day with a win.

Night Owl? 5 minute clean before bed!
Even if the night isn‘t the perfect work time, there are still a few night time cleaning routines that will set you up for a better day. Loading the dishwasher or doing the dishes in the evening will have a huge effect on your mood when entering a clean kitchen in the morning. You could even do a quick dusting session: This a quiet chore you can accomplish without waking others.

Turn it into a workout – and reward yourself!

Turn it into a workout – and reward yourself!

Who said cleaning had to just benefit the house? Cleaning is a great opportunity to get a workout in as well! Turn it into a game by using a pedometer or smart watch to keep track of your movements. The burned calories can then be turned into yummy rewards.
