Sunday cleaning routine

Tips to start:

  • You don’t have to do every single chore on Sunday. You might find that you have random pockets in your days during the week in which you can conquer a “passive” chore, like laundry, running the dishwasher, etc. If the mood strikes, just do it. It’ll lessen the mental load come Sunday.

  • You don’t need anything fancy to complete basic chores. When it comes to building any kind of routine, do what works best for you. If you have products you love and have had for years, use them.
