Creating A Healthy Home Environment.

 

And here we are again at the sweet blog, the sweetest blog online.

The place to be for all fans of the 'Home Concept.'

 

Today, we're tackling a topic that's been on everyone's minds - 'How to make your home a healthier place.'

It is a well-known fact that the notorious COVID lockdowns , which were implemented to curb the spread of a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening virus, have physically brought us all into our homes for a long time.

Since our homestays have become more frequent and have included transferring our physical activities - such as work and more - from the outside in, the challenge of preserving and nurturing a healthy home space has dramatically increased.

Given the current circumstances, the importance of enhancing 'Your home's environment health' has never been more relevant. This article aims to provide you with the most critical and helpful tips for creating a healthier home in these Post-COVID times.

This article will highlight the most critical (and helpful) tips for creating a healthier home, including improving indoor air quality, reducing chemical exposure, and promoting mental well-being.

As always, we have prepared a refreshing infographic presentation and a video summarizing the content of this article, which will be presented to you later in the text.

 

'Creating A Healthy Home Environment?'

Let's get it started.

 

 

1. Sports Space.

 

 

The Genevan philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, once said:

"A feeble body weakens the mind."

 

When envisioning a 'healthier' home, let sports activity be the first thing that comes to mind. It's a key element that can inspire and motivate your health journey.

Empower yourself by creating a space within your home dedicated to sports activities. It doesn't have to be large or fancy. There are many simple ways to create such a space. Check out our informative blog article on how to easily create an A1 quality home gym.

The link between sports activity and our health is direct and undeniable. It's not rocket science to understand this crucial connection.

 

 

 

You can also read this article for further expansion on the subject.

The more you invest in sports activities within your home (and in every other place, actually), the healthier your 'Home Environment' will become.

This was the first one from our -creating a healthy home environment - list.

On to the next one.

 

 

 

2. The 'Right' Food.

 

Similar to the above paragraph, where we talked about A somewhat self-evident principle- Sports. We will now continue with the same pattern by highlighting another relatively straightforward principle when creating a healthy home environment - Nutrition.

The number of studies linking your diet to your health Quality is innumerable. Seems like there is no consensus issue in the healthcare literature.

You must ensure that the food arriving at your doorstep is the healthiest you can lay your hands on. 

Doing so will contribute a lot to making your home, and thus yourself - healthier.

Please read this article and enrich your knowledge regarding healthy food ingredients.

Thank us later.

 

One of the most crucial aspects of maintaining your home's health through nutrition is the accessibility of healthy food.

It's not just about desiring a healthy diet, but about making sure that a nutritious meal is readily available on your table. This is why the accessibility of healthy food is a key issue. You need to actively ensure that healthy food is within easy reach as much as possible.

Place bowls full of fruits/vegetables around your house. Ensure to obtain food that does not require complex preparation and can be eaten without cooking or other special efforts.

The guiding principle is that in addition to worrying about buying the proper nutrients in terms of health, it's your responsibility to take care of accessibility and comfort aspects. By doing so, you're not just improving your health, but also making things easier for your household.

 

Healthy and available food is key

3. Cleaning & Disinfection Accessories.

 

An ancient Chinese scholar once said:

"one simple disinfectant wipe can prevent a future epidemic."

 

Okay, Okay... maybe we got a little carried away, and he never said anything like that, but you got our point...

 

COVID-19 has taught us a valuable lesson-sanitation is not just a choice, it's a necessity. It's a key factor in maintaining the health of any space, especially our private residences.

Imagine having simple 'Sanitation stations' strategically placed around your house. It's not complicated at all to grab a damp wipe and disinfect your hand or any surface within your home. This simple setup can make a big difference in maintaining a healthy home environment.

Another great example is automatic hand-cleaning devices. Some are activated without special effort on your part. All you have to do is place your hand under the device, and a little detergent will automatically drip out.

You may be shocked to hear... but another excellent means for creating a healthy home environment is the simplest and most well-known means - Simple cleaning.

Take responsibility for your home's cleanliness by ensuring regular and thorough cleaning. Remember to use detergents that are not only environmentally friendly but also safe for your health.

 

Keep everything clean and sterile

 

 

The cleaner your home is, the fewer bacteria it will naturally have.

4. Space For The Soul.

 

 

American actor Moisés Arias once said:

"It is nice finding that place where you can just go and relax."

 

Health is not just a function of physical issues. It is also directly related to mental challenges.

Calm and peaceful people tend to be healthier.

Create (at least) one space within your home dedicated to your soul's welfare.

 

Yoga/meditation/relaxation room, you name it. A space where you can relax and unwind from the daily hassles. Another good tip in this regard can be in the format of nice quotes on the wall (Refreshing art print can be a great idea) /smell of soothing incense, and more.

It is highly recommended that you read the two articles dedicated to this topic from our sweet blog.

The guiding principle is to create a peaceful atmosphere within your home that will contribute to your overall mental health, thus helping your physical well-being.

 

 

Peace of mind will help with your health

 

 

This space of relaxation in question is just one example.

We trust you to be creative.

 

 

5. Restrict Entry!

 

 

Another and no less important recommendation that will surely help you in your efforts to create a healthy home environment is entry restriction.

Sometimes, in order to protect your peace, you must take a bit stricter measures than usual.

One of these measures is restricting entry into your personal/homely space. If you feel that certain people, at certain times, cloud your peace, limit their access.

Don't be too hard on yourself. There is no shame in wanting to put yourself first.

We really don't want to stress you out. Still, it would be best if you were determined about this super important decision. Sometimes, those who represent these toxic influences will torment and nag you - be strong!

 

 

Save your home space from external hazards
