The Ideal Color Palette

With a busy lifestyle, it can be hard to relax. The stress of the day carries over into the evening when many go from one job to another at home. There must be a space that you feel insulated from all your responsibilities for just a little while, where you can take a deep breath and relax. You need a home retreat.

Find A Secluded Spot

You don’t have to have a huge home to find a place to make your retreat. Look for something away from the busiest part of your home. It can be a bathroom, a corner of your bedroom, a nook in the kitchen, or a spot on a porch. It can be shady, or it can be sunny. The point is to look for a place tha a quiet where you can feel removed from the madness.

Commune With Nature

When possible, you want to bring nature into your interior design. Even 20 minutes of being connected with the outdoors can reduce your stress levels. Place your furniture near windows that you can open or where you can watch the rain. Observing birds and wildlife or merely watching the wind blow can give you a mental break and slow your heart rate. Try some house plants to increase your sense of zen as well as your air quality.
