Why should you avoid sweeping the house at night? - Page 2

Everyone has their own sensibilities, but these stories have forged entire generations of little nocturnal rituals… or silent prohibitions.

Beyond the myth: down-to-earth reasons

Some very real explanations also encourage this ancient custom:

Shortage of light: Before electricity, sweeping in the dark was a real risk. Who hasn’t tripped over a forgotten toy or a messy chair?
Respect for rest: The noise of the broom on the floor, the movement of furniture or objects… so many nuisances that destr0y the calm of the evening, a precious moment of relaxation for the whole family.
Natural rhythm: In the evening, our body slows down and our minds turn toward calm. Nighttime cleaning can produce a form of mental agitation that relieve the need for rest.

A habit that persists… or transforms

Today, with days often loaded, some people look for nighttime cleaning a time for centering or active meditation. And if sweeping in the evening makes you feel good, then why strip yourself? The important thing is to respect your needs and the energy of your home.
