2024 is here and one of the best ways to kick off the new year is to make sure your mind and home get a good reset. You’ve probably seen that weekly reset content all over your TikTok or Instagram feed, where a content creator shares their routine for keeping a home, wardrobe or beauty area in check.
Get rid of the clutter
Start by decluttering your home. Get rid of anything you haven't used in the past year and don't see yourself using in the future. Go through all your clothes, beauty items and more and separate them into 'keep', 'donate' and 'throw away' piles. Finally, organize your clothing by season and store off-season clothes to save space.
Deep clean and reorganize
Now that there’s more space, it’s time to deep clean your home. After the bustle of Christmas and new year celebrations, it’s time to just things in order. A good way to refresh your space is by redecorating or rearranging your furniture. Update and clean out your beauty storage to make it more functional. A change in your surroundings can help reset your mind.
Create your own mindfulness routines
While you don’t need to commit to any resolutions, it’s great to spend time reflecting on the past year and setting goals for the year ahead. You might realise that it’s time to start creating a proper daily routine for yourself. It could be that you had a stressful year and want to heal from burnout. Having a structured day can help reduce stress, keep you focused and increase productivity.
Make time for self-care and rest
After cleaning up and determining your daily routine, it’s essential to find time for rest and relaxation. Your self-care routines doesn’t have to look like what you see on social media, it can reflect what helps you unwind and feel rejuvenated. You could start a new hobby or pick up an old one, providing a fresh perspective and a creative outlet.
