You may opt to invest in a few storage boxes or cabinets to hide away craft supplies, clothes, games or whatever needs to be in the room but doesn't need to be on display. Minimize furniture and accessories to only those things that you need the most. PLACE LIVING THINGS Putting up plants or flowers on display helps us to de-stresses the atmosphere of your space.

Instead, focus on calming scents such as lavender, rose, vanilla, chamomile, or sunflower, which have been proven to have relaxing effects. Use scent diffusers, candles, incense or solid air fresheners for subtly incorporating relaxing scents and ambiance. INCORPORATE TRANQUIL PAINT COLORS THROUGHOUT YOUR SPACE Soft colors found in nature are the most relaxing. This isn't the room for brights, harsh colors or shiny textures.
