Daylight Savings Time has come around again, and spring is finally here. Are you feeling the spring cleaning itch yet?

Cleaning out the closets is an excellent place to start, though spring cleaning really should extend to more corners of our lives than the corners of our homes.

Do you ever notice how fresh and light you feel when you clean your house for spring? Try it on your life in just one weekend, and you'll feel more refreshed than you can imagine.

I have some great suggestions on how to clear that clutter out of your life to welcome positivity along with the warmer weather.

Adjust your finances

Do you have auto-renew memberships you're not using? Paying too much for your insurance? Spending too much on coffee? Take a look at your finances and find ways to trim out unnecessary expenses. Bonus: you'll have more money for what matters!

Get spring cleaning on wheels

Messy cars can make you feel cluttered and uneasy on the road. Give it a good cleaning inside and out, and you'll feel like a new person.

Free your mind

Our minds suffer the most when we have too much going on. This spring, start meditating to clear out the things that are holding you back. You'll free your mind and relieve that mental fatigue for better clarity. Try downloading an app like Headspace or Calm or finding a great YouTube guided meditation, and work on meditating for 10 minutes a day.

Tidy up your schedule

Are you so busy running here and there with the kids, your commitments, and errands? Tighten up your schedule and stop trying to please everyone. Focus on what really needs to be done, and leave wiggle room for adding in last minute things that come up. With a less cluttered schedule, you'll feel less compressed all around. 

Clean up your routine

If you feel like you're stuck in a rut, you probably are. Try shaking up your routine any way you can. It could be as simple as jogging the opposite direction around your favorite lake, trying a new class at the gym, or doing something you've always wanted to do for yourself each week.

Delete unproductive apps

Are you spending too much time scrolling through social media? Perhaps you've got a time-wasting game on there you're ready to ditch, also. Toss those out if you're wasting time on them, and you'll find you have more time to do things you love.

Make a spring resolution

Who says the New Year is the only time you can set goals and charge ahead for them? I say spring forward toward them with a proper resolution.
