How to keep your cool with the chaos of your space

Real talk: Yesterday, I was feeling a little trapped by clutter and jumbled home decor. I decided to take advantage of this WFH time by giving my home a mini makeover and my mood immediately boosted. Here are some techniques I’ve successfully implemented so far! *Brought the outdoors in and made a few new plants. *Added a gallery wall which includes so many pictures of close loved ones in my life. *Reduced clutter in every way possible. How are you calming your mind? Also, any other ideas are welcome!

I got one of those countertop herb gardens for Christmas and my chives are HUGE. I repotted them into a regular pot today and was able to start a couple more herbs! I've also gone through our DVDs looking for duplicates and ones we don't want any more and managed to get those to the local Half Price Books before we joined the shelter-in-place effort.

I've managed to kill a lot of my plants and SO want to master this. Good for you!

I love this idea!! One of my "home school" lessons during this wfh season, has been home economics (teaching my 7 year old to do the laundry and household cleaning), but your idea would take it up a notch and she would love the idea even more. Thanks.

I've taken the time to do a bit more reading (aiming for hard covers, not screens). I read while walking on the treadmill yesterday, and felt so much better after - energized both physically and mentally.

Yes! I just finished The Dutch House by Ann Patchett. It was my first audio book - although that's not a hard cover, it's nice to be able to run/walk and listen.

Smart!!! I've been trying to identify and pack up donation items, which I think might become more important as the pandemic continues (and also gives me a chance to clean out my closets)
