8 Ways To Make Your Home Zen Using Mindfulness

"With mindfulness, you can establish yourself in the present in order to touch the wonders of life that are available in that moment." - Thich Nhat Hanh

Keeping your home in order can be difficult, especially with the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Bills, deadlines, appointments, work, laundry, and the list goes on.

Research shows that when your environment is cluttered, your life is cluttered. It is linked to higher amounts of stress and causes unnecessary anxiety.

An easy and simple solution is MINIMALISM. This is connected to being mindful and more in tune with your surroundings.

1. Complete a Large Purge and Continue to Keep Up With It

Removing clutter that is no longer serving a purpose makes it much easier to organize the items that do serve a daily purpose.

2. Create Dimension in Small Spaces

Removing furniture that is low to the ground and adding higher pieces creates dimension and draws the eye to the highest point of the room. Thus, making the room appear larger.

3. Remove Mirrors

Bathrooms are the only places mirrors should be. Feng Shui believes that they can actually cause stress, anxiety, and even bounce off energy.

4. Less is More

Recreate your home with natural materials vs. clear containers or metal shelving. This will present a warm and inviting space.

5. Choose Soft and Neutral Color Palettes

Light and airy rooms are known for helping us relax. It also helps create a calming vibe.

6. Keep Counter Tops Clean and Free of Clutter

It is important to start each day as a new day. Clean counters allows your mind to focus on what is important with a clear and free mind!

7. Wake Up and Make Your Bed

Making your bed every morning forces you to slow down and creates a balanced pace for the day.

8. Plants, Plants, and More Plants

Plants create a very inviting and calming atmosphere. Not only are they visually appealing, they come with loads of benefits such as purifying and cleaning the air.
