While there are many proven ways to create a more peaceful headspace, those won’t matter much if the atmosphere around you is chaotic and loud. Fortunately, solutions do exist. Continue reading to discover ways to make your home a more peaceful place with the help of lighting, colors, and sounds.
Colors to paint your walls
When you want your home to feel calm but aren’t sure where to begin, a fresh coat of paint is an option to consider. You might not want to paint your walls, but it might be the exact thing you need.
Whether you want peace in your office, in your bedroom, in your living room, or in another room not listed here, there’s a coat of paint to fit the room’s aesthetic and bring a sense of peace and relaxation.
Here are some color options for different rooms:
Bedroom – Blue: Blue is best for the bedroom because it is a very calming color. It’s hard to think of chaotic things when blue is in your vision.
Office – Brown: The color brown allows you to focus. It is dark, but still bright enough to see detailing around you. If you’re having trouble focusing, paint your office brown. It’s also a color that works perfectly with French doors.
Livingroom – Grey: Grey is bright enough so you feel like you have a happy and energetic environment when you have guests over, but it is also a very calming color. It’s bold and bright, but not too bold or bright.
Kitchen – Pale yellow: Your kitchen should be pale yellow. Yellow is a very calming and relaxing color, bringing joy and happiness. It also works with tiles found in the kitchen and bathroom.
Keep your home calm with sounds
If you have trouble with sounds ruining your comfort and relaxation, you can easily fix this with a few steps:
Bluetooth speakers for calming music: You can buy yourself a Bluetooth speaker that will allow you to listen to soft music to calm you even in the most stressful situations. Bluetooth speakers are a lot smaller now, so you can take them with you
A digital fireplace: If you have a TV with good speakers, you can put on a digital fireplace. This will give you the feeling of sitting in front of a real fire place and you will be instantly calm.
Noise-canceling headphones that play soft music in your ears when you want them to: This investment is a bit expensive, but it is worth it to have the entire world blocked out and only soft music playing.
What lights are best for your eyes?
You should always go with something very light and soft when creating calming and peaceful environments. You can find fairy lights online or at your local superstore. They aren’t expensive. Most are powered by a battery, and you can easily hang them in any room. They brighten your home just enough to have light, but aren’t bright enough to give you headaches or ruin your sleep if you sleep with lights on.
Make sure to avoid LED lights as these can be harmful to your eyes and raise your stress levels. The lights are very bright and they aren’t at all relaxing. It’s actually better to use fairy lights or a remote-powered smart light for your home rather than LED smart light strips.
