Bring the Springtime Vibe Indoors

By Donna Stark

Do you love the longer days, sunnier skies, and relaxed vibe that come during this time of year? Do they bring a smile to your face every time you step outside? If so, you are probably wishing you can harness some of that magic so you can bring it indoors too. Well, guess what ... you can! And on top of that, you can improve your overall well-being in the process. Let's take a look at some springtime magic you can make in the home that will rejuvenate and nourish both your mind and body.

Bring Nature Indoors

In addition to beautifying the rooms in your home, plants and flowers will also help improve the way you feel every day. By bringing the outdoors in and filling those empty spaces in your home with Mother Nature's gifts, you can boost mental energy, improve moods, reduce stress, and clean the air you breathe. Ask your local nursery for suggestions of plants if you aren't sure where to start.

Set Out Fruit Bowls

If you place a big bowl of gorgeous fruit where everyone can see, you can probably inspire your family to eat better! Decorating your dining room or coffee table with bowls of freshly washed apples and cherries or placing a bowl of oranges and bananas on the counter isn't only pretty, it will get everyone excited about whole, natural food as well!

Send in the Light

If there is one thing about winter that most people get tired of real quick, it's the darkness that comes with the season. Thankfully though, that darkness is temporary and disappears once spring arrives, but what's even better is that you can enjoy the longer, lighter days in your home too! Clean your windows, take down those heavy curtains, and open everything up! Exposure to sunlight can help boost happiness and reduce stress and anxiety. You won't believe how much lighter that extra light will make you feel!

Update Your Beds

Breathe easier and sleep better. It's time to update your sheets and blankets, so pull off those heavy flannel covers and switch to something that is breathable and more comfortable for the warmer weather. Linen sheets are the perfect choice for this time of year.

Bringing the Spring Season Indoors

Spring is full of fresh beginnings, clean slates, optimism, and joy, and there is no better way to keep that vibe going than to completely surround yourself with it! So, try to incorporate some of the suggestions above into your home and see what a difference they can make in your life and the lives of your loved ones.
