The simplest way to keep your home reliably clean? Stick to a cleaning schedule. It’s not as daunting as it sounds. On the contrary, when set up correctly, it’s quite the opposite. “A whole-home cleaning schedule allows you to feel less stressed because you know that neat and tidy isn’t ever too far out of reach,” says Aby Garvey, organizing and productivity expert at Simplify 101.
Bathrooms are the center of busy morning routines, nightly regimens, and a variety of basic needs throughout the day. With all this activity comes clutter, and in a typically small room like the bathroom, you can’t afford to waste space on items you don’t need.
We’re all prone to messy moments, but when intense disorganization is accompanied by symptoms of high stress, anxiety, burnout, or depression, it’s often an indicator that you may be struggling with your mental health.
