Spring doesn’t just bring warmer weather and longer days. For many people, it also comes with an urge to open the windows, clear the clutter and finally tackle the mess that’s been quietly building all winter.

“Spring cleaning isn’t just about your home looking better,” says Andrew Wong, MD, a primary care physician with Hartford HealthCare Medical Group. “It can have real physical and mental health benefits, especially when it helps reduce allergens, increase movement and create a calmer living space.”
