Tips for Creating a Calming Oasis

January 3, 2018 By creatingyourspace

Sometimes, we can bring the hustle and bustle of everyday life into our homes. With busy schedules and overwhelming responsibilities, we tend to let our home become a stressful environment. With the year coming to an end, now can be the perfect time to reset the tone of your house. We have seven simple tips that can transform your home into a more calming oasis. 

 

Tips for Creating a Calming Oasis at Home: 

Tip # 1: Fully Fuzzy. 

Textures can influence our senses. By adding fuzzy blankets, pillows, and rugs, we can create a more relaxing environment. 

Tip # 2: Clear Counters. 

A stress-free home begins with a clutter-free life. To reduce the amount of stress you feel, try clearing off your countertops. There is nothing more relaxing than coming home to a clean house. 

Tip # 3: Neutral Tones. 

Neutral tones, whether cool or warm, have been shown to create a more relaxing environment. To help create a calming space, try to use more neutral tones in your design. 

Tip # 4: Luxurious Lights. 

The lighting in your space can be one the most important factors of relaxation. To help unwind, be sure to install dimmers on your lights. These can be installed in areas like bedrooms, bathrooms, and dining rooms. 

Tip # 5: Sensational Scents. 

Nothing says calm quite like a relaxing scent. Try to indulge your senses with calm scents like lavender or chamomile. You can incorporate these scents into your house through the use of candles or even essential oils. 

Tip # 6: Reduced Clutter.

Like we said before, clear counters can give you a clear mind. To begin your clutter-free lifestyle, you will want to go throw your belongings. Try to get rid of things that you have not used in over a month. Once you have reduced the amount of clutter, you may feel more relaxed and less stressed. 

Tip # 7: Relaxing Music. 

When you get home from a stressful day, you can unwind and relax with soothing music. Whether you are cooking or taking a hot bath, music can relax your mind and put you at ease.
