Happy first day of Spring!
Maybe you are like me and already have spring fever or are just itching for warmer weather to match the sunshine. I am going to use the next few blog posts to discuss spring cleaning the body, emotions and your environment. Today we will start with spring cleaning your living space.
Now is a great time to sweep away winter! What can you do?
Open the windows! Get that stagnant winter air out of your house. If its cold out try opening just one or two windows at a time for 5 minutes or so.
Deep clean your house! I love using Thieves House Hold cleaner for cleaning the house. Its great on just about every surface and it smells lovely without any toxic chemicals. Dust the base boards, ceiling fans, behind the refrigerator and other furniture and all those other places you often ignore.
I also like to use my diffuser to purify the air especially with all the sickness that has gone around this winter. For my spring cleaning I used Purification. Purification is an essential oil blend that contains citronella, lemongrass, rosemary, melaleuca, lavendin (hybrid lavender), and myrtle. It’s a great blend to use to purify the air and can also be used to relieve bug bites or as a natural bug repellant. If you don't have a diffuser you can put a couple of drops of Purification in a spray bottle of water and mist into the air.
Clean out your closets! Start to put winter clothes away or to the back of your closet making room for spring clothes. Throw away anything you haven't worn in awhile or that no longer fits.
Take inventory of your clutter! Donate or recycle things you aren't using or are broken.
Nurture your house plants and start your garden! Clear away any dried leaves, replenish the soil, compost any plants that may have died.
You know what they say, "A clean house, a clean mind!" Happy Spring Cleaning! Stay tuned for our next blog about liver and gall bladder detoxification.
