Making your bed every morning can change your life. Sound ridiculous? Read on!

• It will give you a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction

Whilst making your bed may seem too small to matter, actually completing the task will give you a sense of accomplishment. It will make you feel organised and ready to face the day and the challenges ahead. The simple task of making your bed will set the tone for the rest of the day!

• It creates a positive state of mind when you go back to bed

When you have had a long and stressful day and you head to bed, the last thing you want to face is your messy room and untidy bed. This can lower your mental state even more and lead to poor sleep.

Think about when you stay at a hotel, the room is tidy and the bed is made, it makes you feel great, your mood is lifted and you look forward to climbing into the freshly made bed. You can get this same feeling every day if you make your bed!

• Making your bed can lower your stress levels

By making your bed you are starting to declutter your space and this can lead to lower stress levels. You don't waste mental energy. Clutter is a constant reminder of how unorganised you are and can drag you down.

A tidy space is calming. Take the first step to a decluttered life by making your bed daily, this will lead to other better habits and ultimately reduce stress. Once you get into the habit of making your bed you will appreciate how it makes you feel and before you know it the clutter in your life will be a thing of the past.
