We all have had those days where we are just stressed out of our minds, but don't know how to channel that stress. Trust me, I know that feeling very well especially when working with kids every day. We do not want to talk to people because we feel like we are bothering them or we just do not want to come off as being complainers and such. We do not want to hit a wall for the sake of our knuckles and an unwanted trip to the ER. Well, friends, I have the perfect solution for those who are feeling really stressed out.
That solution is.... Stress cleaning!!! This is the best way to channel that stress for a few reasons. I do this all the time and trust me, when I tell you the reasons why it is so awesome, you will want to do it!
It's beneficial for your apartment/house. You are cleaning the house to be even nicer and more spotless than it was before. That way, the next time you walk through the door, you will not have to worry about coming home to a messy house.
It saves your breathe because you are too focused on cleaning. Go ahead, plug in some music and get cleaning. By the time you are done cleaning, you will either forget what you were stressed about or not be as stressed as you were before you started cleaning. You also avoid yelling at your best friend out of stress, which is always something to avoid.
It also saves you from doing foolish things. Stress cleaning is helping you make those smarter decisions and not do the things you really want to do, even though you know those choices are wrong and again, foolish. You don't want to have to live with the memory that you texted that person or bought that really expensive dress.
You get complimented on how clean your home is. Some friends came over and said that my apartment was so spotless and clean. I feel so happy that my peers love seeing my apartment and complimenting it because I never have to worry about them thinking that it is an awful mess all the time. I do not have to worry about thinking, "Oh my God, she is judging how dirty the table is right now."
Stress cleaning can seriously save your butt and also make your life a lot less stressful. You become a proud home owner who is very proud to have guests in your home all the time entertaining. You can also avoid all of those scary or awkward situations by distracting yourself with a vaccum or a duster.
