Let your House Help you De-Stress
Thank you Tamra Lee Ulmer
After the seemingly endless shopping, working and errand running, it is a relief to come home and finally rest – but when you slip into that all-too-familiar routine of screen time and snacks right up until bed, individual’s body and minds do not have a chance to recharge fully.
By setting up your space with care and establishing a few simple new routines, you can choose to replenish your energy instead. Here are tips to heart and add your favorite ways to undue stress.
1. Have green plants and fresh flowers
Living plants add pure oxygen to the air and remove toxins, which are especially important for every homeowner – aside from air-purifying effect, the act of tending to live plants or arranging cut flowers is a beautiful way to let go of stress.
2. Do something that recharges you before turning on the television
If you are having trouble cutting back on a TV-watching habit, try this instead: tell yourself that you must do something unplugged. Make a list of little treat activities you never seem to find the time for a pick on of them to try each night.
3. Engage your senses
Create a haven for your thoughts with a fluffy rug and luscious textiles, beautiful music, favorite art and photography books, and a delicious room fragrance.
4. Lower the lights before bed
Artificial light can throw off the natural sleep rhythms, especially at this time. Try getting out in the sun a bit each day and gradually lowering the lights for an hour or so before bed for a sounder sleep.
5. Establish boundaries between work and home
Even if you must do some work at home, setting limits will go far toward preserving your personal space. Setting a cutoff time works well for many people, but try to give yourself a whole day entirely without work as well.
Sometimes one simple thing can make your whole day go more smoothly. No matter how rushed your mornings, taking a moment to smooth those covers will give you a sense that things are in order.
