5 things to elevate your mood at home
Everything you need is already with you
01. Tap into Nature:
Plant therapy is real. There is a common misconception that plants can’t be placed inside the house. However, plants reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, increase productivity and generally elevate the mood of the house. It’s easy access to a serene place. Why step out when you have a garden right at home? Gardens that can be big, small or as simple as placing fresh flowers on your coffee table.
02. Light:
Natural light has been proven to have a positive and direct impact on our moods. Basking in rays of natural sunlight can boost our moods and overall happiness. Studies show that exposure to natural light can heighten our emotions, make us feel more energetic, and can even help with some symptoms of depression. Say goodbye to heavy, darker-shaded curtains and bring in some lighter, sheer one, or ditch them all together! This will maximize the amount of sunlight that enters your home. Let’s get some of that vitamin D!
03. It’s All About Color:
“Color, color, which color, do you want to choose?”
Colors have a huge impact on our moods and emotions. They are one of the easiest ways to boost our moods, but this idea is more personalized to your preference and how they make you feel. For example, if a dark blue shade makes you feel sleepy, that may not be a color you should incorporate in your main living space. Be sure to incorporate shades of a color that you know makes you feel happy all around your home. Whether it’s a splash of it in the rug, a color of a pillow, or the color of your walls.
04. Declutter
Clutter immediately makes a person feel stressed, overwhelmed and negatively impacts their mood. On top of that, clutter breaks concentration, so rather focusing on the beautiful piece of art you just hung on the wall, the attention of your guests will be on the stack of boxes in the corner of the room. Decluttering rooms in your home will allow your mind to do the same when you walk into a room.
05. The personal touch:
This is a limitless option for your space as it is available in different colours, reflections and textures. There are multiple types of glass to use for your interiors like :
- Shatter proof glass, perfect for letting in light with fixtures like skylights and windows.
- Laminated glass, which is used for aquariums and provides multiple layers of glass to ensure maximum safety.
- Extra clean glass is a stain free option that is easy to maintain.
- Tinted glass is a coloured glass used for vibrant architecture.
