As the New Year approaches we all begin to think about the changes we would like to see in the months to come. If you are looking for a way to reduce your stress in 2016, a fresh coat of paint may be able to help. Color can affect your mood in many ways, which is why we recommend updating your bedroom to allow yourself to relax and get a good night’s sleep at the end of each busy day.
Dim the Lights
An important part of creating a cozy, stress-free space is getting the lighting right. Your bedroom should be a place you can relax and whether you enjoy reading in bed before you fall asleep or chatting with your spouse about your day, the right lighting will help to calm your mind and prepare you for a restful night. A bedside lamp creates the perfect about of light for reading and is easy to switch off as you get ready to fall asleep.
Decorate with Comfort in Mind
Another way to make your bedroom a relaxing escape is to decorate with comfort in mind. A soft rug beneath your feet, a comfy pillow behind your head and a warm blanket to fall asleep beneath are all important aspects of creating your perfect space.
Choose a Color that Calms You
The place you go to rest and relax, your bedroom should be painted in a shade that evokes feelings of comfort and serenity. Soft blue shades are said to be the most calming of colors, while neutral browns can create feelings of warmth and support. Everyone is different and there is no “right” color to choose, which is why we recommend choosing the color that you love the most!
