Aside from that, a clean and tidy room makes the atmosphere focused and calmer, which in turn is good for our mental health.

Sarahsita Hendrianti, M.Psi., Adult Clinical Psychologist at Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia explained, "When we are stressed, our body produces high levels of the hormone cortisol. The comfort that we get after cleaning the house biologically will help reduce the hormone." Even more exciting, we can use some natural ingredients from our very own kitchen to helps us with cleaning.
