Cleanliness As A Lifestyle

Is it becoming easy to fall behind on your cleaning? After all, what you clean today will probably get messy in the near future, so you may figure taking some time off from cleaning may be in your best interest. But cleaning is so much more than a tedious, time-consuming task. It’s a lifestyle that can change your life in ways you wouldn’t expect, and you should consider embracing it!

Cleanliness is a means of attraction. According to the Princeton University Neuroscience Institute, stimuli are constantly competing for your attention. When you are in a cluttered or dirty space, there are lots of stimuli clashing for your attention, which can confuse the brain. The brain’s constant battles expend your energy. Because of this, you’re wasting energy on things you don’t even need around you! Decluttering and cleaning an area gives you the ability to give your energy to the things or people you want to attract. As the adage goes, create a space, and the universe will try to fill it.

The body naturally tries to preserve the energy the brain expends. Because of this, clutter and dirtiness gets in the way of your decision-making process. On a fundamental level, it appears that if you keep an unclean space, you don’t care much about your output—or even about yourself!

Moreover, people don’t always want to be in spaces that are cluttered or dirty. A study done in 2010 found that females living in a cluttered or dirty home had higher levels of cortisol (the body’s stress meter), suggesting that the body is doing more work to maintain itself. Basically, we associate clutter with negativity without even being fully aware of it. For that reason, people would much rather be in clean or decluttered spaces, which we subconsciously associate with positive emotions.

The attraction extends to the workplace, as well. Would you be surprised to know that cleanliness even affects income? 92 percent of people in a 2017 study by P&G Professional said they took business cleanliness into account when deciding to give it repeat business, and a whopping 9 out of 10 people consider uncleanliness to be a breaking point. Conversely, 92 percent of people will support and recommend a business to others solely based on cleanliness! The more comforted in their surroundings customers feel, the more likely they are to keep patronizing your business!

Espousing a clean lifestyle leads to you being more productive and generally more attractive. But cleaning takes up much of your time and effort, and you probably don’t have either of those things in abundance.
