House Burping
Episode 7
Sunday, 22 February, 2026
Have you ever walked into your home and felt the air was a little… stale? Maybe a bit heavy, dusty, or holding onto yesterday’s dinner? You might not realise it, but your house needs to “burp.”House burping simply means opening doors and windows to create cross-flow ventilation so fresh air can move through your home. Not just a cracked window — real airflow. Even ten minutes a day can make a noticeable difference.When you live in a home (with humans, pets, cooking, showers and heaters running), moisture builds up. That moisture turns dust into grime, increases the risk of mould, and traps smells in soft furnishings and paint. If clutter is present, airflow is even more restricted — which means more stagnant air, more dust settling, and more odour lingering.When you open windows regularly, you improve air quality, reduce moisture, and make mould less likely. You also disturb settled dust while decluttering, which is exactly why ventilation matters when you’re tidying.There’s a psychological shift too. Fresh air and natural light change how you see your space. You notice dust on the mirror. You feel more motivated to wipe it down. Light reveals what’s been hiding behind closed blinds. Airflow reduces that oppressive, boxed-in feeling clutter can create.Try opening several windows across your home for ten minutes in the morning. Let your house breathe. You might find it easier to clean, clearer to think, and lighter in your space.You may also like to listen to these episodes:Reducing VolumeBlame EntropyJoin my communityLeave a 5 Star Google ReviewFollow me on InstagramFollow me on FacebookJoin my Facebook groupThank you to my sound engineer, Jarred from Four4ty Studio Hosted on Acast.
