Need motivating to do housework? Picture this...
Do you lack motivation when it comes to housework? Are you struggling to think of good reasons to tackle the work...again? It's a common problem. Keeping a home is a unique challenge - it is repetitive and monotonous, and since it will only need doing again, some would even argue it is futile. But your home has a powerful effect on your whole life - and those you live with.

The selfless route to Self-Indulgence
or The Only Way to Get 5 Minutes Peace. Picture the scene... You’ve just collapsed onto the sofa with a drink and your favourite book/magazine/TV programme. The relaxing sigh is barely out of your mouth before you hear it....the summons. Somebody, somewhere wants a piece of you. And they want it NOW. If they’re not demanding food, they need something finding. Or cleaning. Or they need your diplomatic services to solve a dispute. Whatever it is they need, you know there will be no peace until they have it. And they time it to perfection every time. They have a radar.

How sweet is your home?
As a race, we humans have always had self-maintenance work to do. It’s part of survival. If you’re alive, it goes with the territory. So why, with all the modern advancements at our disposal, do we struggle to find the time for this primitive and basic care-work - looking after our homes and families? The problem is not a lack of hours in the day. If we had more hours, no doubt we would cram them full of other stuff and still have no time for housework!

Too busy for housework? How & why to get some breathing space in your life...
Keeping our homes and feeding our families are innate human habits. And, thanks to today’s mod cons, this domestic stuff has never been easier. Why, then, do we still struggle to find the time for it? One answer lies in the position of housework on our to-do lists, (ie not very high.) But there is another explanation: if we have so much to do that such a primal and essential need gets neglected – perhaps our lists are too long!

Dust, vacuum...create?
The results of housework are all too fleeting. You spend your time performing boring tasks and before long, they need doing again. There’s not much scope for any earth-shattering achievements, right? Wrong! A surprising side-effect of monotonous jobs is the activation of your creative mind. The mindless, empty-headed state that comes form boring jobs is actually a fertile ground for for creative thought, intuition, problem-solving, even flashes of genius. This productive state is known as the alpha state - which is brain-speak for a deeply relaxed mental state.
