“There’s no place like home.” That would be true, if only we weren’t speaking about your new home. I mean, you’re obviously quite happy that you’ve got a new house for your family, but it just feels like you’re stuck in a different building. Well, you’re not sure what you feel exactly, but you know that you don’t feel and that’s ‘comfortable’.
It’s time to turn your new house into a home, so that you and your family can begin to enjoy your stay there. We’re going to show you some simple things that you can do to feel more comfortable at your new home.
- You should try getting active immediately after you’ve moved into your new home. You need to stay physically, socially and communally active so that you can trigger the mental processes that can create that lovely home feeling. Remember to exercise, join local communities, shop locally, invite your neighbors over for lunch and other things like that.
- Try your hand at cultivating living things. You can combat the negative emotions that you’re feeling by investing your time and energy into something that will blossom with life. Do things like grow a garden, spend some quality time with your kids, get a pet, donate to a charity, etc.
- Use a comforting color palette to help you decorate your new house. You’d be surprised at how the act of customizing your home with the right color scheme can help to promote feelings of comfort, calmness and happiness.
- Do things like cook your family’s favorite meals, play their favorite music, light your usual scented candles to create that familiar scent that you had at your own home. Creating these familiarities in your new house can help to make things fall into place.
- Unpack your stuff as quickly as you can and organize them into your new home, because living out of suitcases won’t make you feel like you’re right at home. You can decorate and arrange your furniture into similar like orientations to the ones at your old house. This can help you and your family adjust to the different structure and feeling of your brand new house.
