If you've ever wondered if a clean house would make you happier, you are not alone.

The idea that our home is powerfully symbolic and far more than just a shelter from the outside world – but a reflection of our true identity – was first proposed by Swiss theorist and psychiatrist Carl Jung.

How we construct this space is, therefore, imperative to how to not only how we function, but also to our health and mental wellbeing.

Many studies have found that having a clean and tidy house can help you to feel relaxed, accomplished, stress free and this could in turn help with any mental health conditions and allow you to feel better and happier.

Whereas if your house is messy or dirty this could trigger feelings of anxiety, low mood or agitation.

Having an organized and clean house can improve your life in more ways than one.

It can literally change the way you look at yourself and the world.

Including feeling more in control, productive, relaxed and better able to handle life and the challenges it brings.

Having and maintaining a clean home leads to a better life.
