Get motivated for spring cleaning in 3 easy steps. Spring is here and whether spring cleaning is on the forefront of your mind or in the back, it’s a good time to start talking about it. I want to help you get into the right mind set by talking about the spiritual significance of spring time. Though spring cleaning may seem like a daunting task that should be pushed back to summer. Spring is the perfect time for a good cleaning and clearing of the home. Because spring is the season of rebirth, reawakening and renewal. It is the burst of energy after the stillness of winter.
Like the seasons, our bodies follow the same energetic patterns of our mother earth. So after hibernating for the winter, we emerge rejuvenated with energy in the spring time. Spring cleaning is about applying that energy to our dwellings. To cleanse and purge the stagnate energy of our inner space. We do this before the warmer weather and longer days beckons us to come outside to play! So if we see spring cleaning as part of following the rhythms of nature, we may be more inclined to make this an annual practice.
3 Steps to Get Motivated for Spring Cleaning
Focus: Pick one area at a time to focus on to avoid feelings of overwhelm
Plan: Make a plan and break your cleaning down into steps to increase feelings of capability.
Feel: Harness the energy of spring to increase your motivation. Remember to take breaks as needed and reward yourself afterwards.
In conclusion, finding joy in the ritual of spring cleaning can bring you the motivation you need. It’s a cleansing to prepare us for more active days ahead. Like the rhythms of nature, our own transition from winter to spring is a time for renewal.
