What is the secret to happiness?

The secret to happiness is closer to home than you think. In fact, new research* suggests that the secret is your home. As a nation, we’re prioritising our wellbeing, embracing healthier lifestyles and spending more on our health and wellness.

The survey, by SharkNinja, which looked to explore the power of a clean home, revealed the profound emotional impact a clean home can have on us all, revealing that a tidy space is not just about aesthetics but a key ingredient for emotional wellbeing, productivity, and even family harmony. An overwhelming 88% of respondents agreed that a clean, organised space fosters a clear, focused mind, reducing stress and promoting a sense of calm and control.

The benefits don’t end there, 65% of respondents felt that having clean floors positively impacts their stress levels and two in five felt having a clean home meant they had better sleep.
