How To Create A Peaceful Space At Home

Are you having trouble finding a peaceful space in your home? Quest Interiors has some tips on how you can make any space in your home one that is stress-free.

Declutter

The first step to creating a peaceful space in your home is to declutter that space. When you have excess clutter in your home, it can subconsciously stress you out. By having items stored properly, or just getting rid of things you don’t need anymore, you’ll be able to create a space that is stress-free. This includes excess decorations. Sometimes simple is better.

Natural Light

Open the curtains and blinds to let in some much needed natural light. Not only will it help brighten up your room, but you’ll also be exposed to more sunlight. It has been proven that the amount of sunlight you are exposed to can correlate to serotonin levels. That means the more sunlight you are in contact with the better your mood will be.

Aromatherapy

Another great way to create a space that is peaceful is to have it smell nice. You can use candles, wax warmers, or oil diffusers to disperse your favorite scent in your space. Here is a list of scents that may help you relax:
  • Lavender
  • Vanilla
  • Sage
  • Lemon/Citrus
  • Peppermint
  • Cinnamon
  • Any scent that you enjoy

Add Textiles

Including a mixture of textiles in your room may help you feel more comfortable and cozy. If you have hardwood floors, your feet will definitely appreciate a soft rug. Putting pillows and blankets on your sitting areas will also help create a welcoming environment that can help anyone relax.

Update Your Space

Sometimes a source of stress can come from an outdated home. Maybe your carpet is drab or your open concept kitchen looks out of date. If you aren’t in love with the look of your home, it can be causing you to not feel comfortable in your own home.
