What are the key techniques Hilary Erickson uses to simplify home routines?

10-minute tidy: Set a timer and quickly tidy up the house. This is especially effective if done daily.

Plan dinner: Every morning, plan what's for dinner. This can prevent last-minute stress and unhealthy takeout meals.

Laundry: Instead of having a laundry day, assign a load to each day of the week. This can make the task less overwhelming and ensure that needed items are clean when required.

5-minute tidy at night: Spend a few minutes tidying up before bed. This can make the house more pleasant to wake up to in the morning.
