Our 2025 Spring It On Challenge – Declutter & Simplify
Cleaning and organizing our homes annually is essential for maintaining a healthy, stress-free, and functional living environment. Taking the time to declutter and deep clean not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of our space, but it also promotes mental well-being. A clean home reduces allergens, dust, and bacteria, making it a safer place to live. It also helps prevent the buildup of unnecessary items, which can create a sense of chaos and overwhelm.
Beyond the physical benefits, an organized home improves productivity by providing clear spaces for work, relaxation, and leisure. It can make daily routines smoother and more efficient, as items are easy to find and there’s less time spent searching for misplaced things. Additionally, the act of decluttering can be therapeutic, offering a sense of control and accomplishment.
On an emotional level, keeping our homes clean and organized annually also provides the opportunity to let go of old or unused belongings, promoting a sense of renewal and simplifying our lives. This practice can be particularly important in reducing stress, as it fosters a sense of order and calm.
In short, taking the time to clean and organize your home annually creates a healthier, more productive, and serene environment, benefiting both your physical space and mental clarity.
What's Included
Prep, Plan, Execute
It's hard to know where to start and how to start. I will guide you through my thoughts on motivation, accountability, and how to get started. Plus, I included my favorite office supply products!
Get Organized & Simplify
An organized home brings clarity, peace, and efficiency to your life. Remember, when I say simplify (or “de-clutter”) I don't mean getting rid of a special sentimental item your Grandma gave you. That's not what this means. Keep special items; find a way to use them or store them. Simplifying your home begins with the understanding that you likely don't need 15 coffee tumblers.
This portion of the challenge includes prompts you can ask yourself, tips on organizing + many of the organizing products that I use or recommend.
Clean it…Clean it good!
Often the most dreaded task of all. It has to get done and it feels good when it's done! I believe that having the right tools and products can make this fun and more efficient. I share those + a few more of my thoughts on cleaning in general.
Time for a Refresh
The hardest tasks are done – cleaning and organizing. How can you refresh your space? How can YOU feel refreshed this spring? I share a variety of ways to refresh your home and your life/mindset in this new season. You'll also get the chance to save my favorite iced coffee recipe – perfect for spring & summer!
