Deep Clean Your Home

With normal life being so busy, this time off can allot for product time. This means you can clean your home from top to bottom. All of the walls, ceilings, and small crevices you regularly miss can receive some attention. A clean home produces a clear mind.

According to Better Homes and Gardens, to avoid becoming overwhelmed when deep cleaning a house, it’s helpful to break the process down into smaller, more manageable tasks.

Create A New Feng Shui

Changing furniture around can do wonders for a home. It can create an entirely new vibe, aesthetic, and zen. By creating a new feng shui, you can take your home from drab to fab, simply by rearranging the furniture you already have. But if you’re feeling optimistic, you can always buy additional pieces to add to what you have.

According to The Spruce, creating good feng shui in your home involves arranging spaces to enhance energy flow and life balance.

Sage The Place

Sage is often used in the home for restorative purposes. Mostly to clear negative energies and restore purified atmospheres. With that comes a sense of peace, safety, positivity, and ultimately a reset. After all the stress and anxiety that the holidays bring, this may be a great option for you.

According to Extra Space Storage, cleansing a home with sage refers to the process of lighting sage (or other herbs) on fire, extinguishing it, and wafting the smoke around a space in an effort to reduce or purify negative energy.

Renew Your Home

Bringing in the new year, you may want to revamp your entire space. This means new furniture, wall art, decor, and more. Let your eye wander and create a new safe haven in your home. After all, you’re the one who has to live there and see it daily. Might as well be comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.

According to Decorilla, it might not be obvious, but the bedroom is a good place to start your home refresh. Rethink what feels static: artwork, bedding, and lighting, and replace it with pieces that sharpen or soften the room’s mood.
