Creating a Cozy Home

HOW TO RELAX IN YOUR SPACE

Achieving a relaxed state-of-mind begins at home. Create a soothing and calm environment by following these five simple tips.

Ditch the junk. Clearing clutter is one of the simplest ways to bring peace of mind. Set a goal to fill one bag each week with items to toss or donate, and feel uplifted in no time.

Colour your world. Colour can influence mood and impact energy levels. Surround yourself with colours found together in nature to encourage serenity and positivity. Choose neutral shades such as a sunny yellow, a cool blue, or a serene green.

Get together. Socializing makes people feel more connected and confiding in friends can reduce stress. Nurture personal relationships and lift your mood by hosting a dinner party or a classic movie night with a friend or two.

Fill your home with scent. Aromatherapy is a widely accepted way to unwind. Invest in an essential oil diffuser or create a DIY room spray by mixing six ounces of distilled water with two ounces of witch hazel, and 10-20 drops of essential oil, such as lavender or lemongrass.Boost your bedroom. Start your day off right by making your bed each morning. Improve sleep quality by removing all technology and wake up to a restorative view by facing your bed towards a picturesque window, a thriving plant, or inspiring artwork.​
