We all spend a large majority of our day in our accommodation. Without us realizing it, the space we live in can have a profound impact on our mood, focus, productivity, or stress levels.
Prioritize natural light
To neglect the light in your home is to forget that regular exposure to natural light promotes the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that influences mood and well-being. Some studies have shown that a dark, poorly lit space can contribute to depression, anxiety, and mental fatigue.
To optimize natural light, it is best to install light curtains, position your windows well and avoid obstacles that might block the light.
Declutter and Organize
A cluttered environment can cause stress, anxiety, but also a decrease in concentration. Indeed, the visual disorder can be tiring for the mental load and prevent relaxation.
Organizing your interior with functional storage but above all by getting into the habit of regularly decluttering thus promotes mental clarity and tranquility.
Choose your colors well
Certain colors can have an influence on our emotions and state of mind. For example, certain warm tones such as red and orange can stimulate energy and creativity, while cool tones such as blue and green promote relaxation and tranquility.
You can decorate your home according to what you want to do there. An area dedicated to reading or meditation should not have the same color as a space for eating or working, for example.
Invite nature into your home
Arranging plants or flowers all over your home has an immediately soothing and relaxing effect that improves mood and reduces stress. Certain natural materials such as wood or stone can also create a warm and serene atmosphere conducive to creativity.
