So you’ve been feeling under the weather for the last few days and things have started to pile up. The kids are running out of clean clothes and the dishes are overflowing in the sink. How do you keep up with the ever-changing rhythm of a household when you’re not able to keep up with yourself? We’ve got a few tips and tricks to help you keep the house clean when you’re not feeling so well.
Establish a cleaning routine
In order to keep the house clean when you’re under the weather (and on a regular basis), it’s important to establish a viable cleaning routine that you can adhere to each week. House cleaning should be one of your first priorities when running a home. A cleaning routine will help you keep the house clean when you aren’t feeling well simply because you’ve adopted the habit of having the routine.
Keep disinfectant wipes handy
Let’s face it, the way you’re feeling you won’t be scrubbing any toilets any time soon. And that’s completely ok. Keep disinfectant wipes on handy throughout your house so that you can clean up messes easily as they happen and so you can stop the spread of germs in their track.
Diffuse essential oils around the house
Two things happen when you use essential oils in a diffuser. One is that certain essential oils help clean out the air around you while eliminating toxic allergens. This not only helps keep your house nice and clean, but it also helps you to feel better by breathing in cleaner air.
The second thing that can happen is that those essential oils can work together to help strengthen your immune system and get rid of your sickness faster. Which essentially helps you get up and keep the house clean on a regular basis.
