This is a crucial discussion that directly impacts our well-being and quality of life.

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 significant period of time. This prolonged indoor stay has underscored the importance of a healthy home environment, as we spend more time indoors than ever before.

We understand the difficulties you may be facing and we're here to help.

Hop On!

 

 

 

1. Sports Space.

  

Jean-Jacques Rousseau quote, "A feeble body weakens the mind," suggests that physical health is closely linked to mental well-being. This idea is at the core of our discussion on the importance of sports activity in creating a healthier home.

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's not about size or luxury, it's about the commitment.

There are many simple ways to create such a space, and we're here to guide you through it. 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 not just a theory, it's a fact. It's a direct and undeniable connection that we all can understand and benefit from.

You can also read this article to expand on the subject further.

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

2. The 'Right' Food.

 

Similar to the above paragraph, where we discussed a straightforward principle- Sports, we will now continue with the same pattern by highlighting another simple yet crucial principle when creating a healthy home environment - Nutrition.

The abundance of studies linking your diet to your health Quality is overwhelming. It's a topic that has been extensively researched and discussed in the healthcare literature.

It's your responsibility to 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 such as leafy greens, lean proteins, and whole grains.

Thank us later.

By the way, 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 ensuring that a nutritious meal is readily available. 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 for your 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- that 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.

Picture this: simple 'Sanitation stations' strategically placed around your house. With a quick grab of a damp wipe, you can disinfect your hand or any surface within your home. It's not complicated, it's empowering. This straightforward setup can make a significant 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.

Believe it or not, one of the most effective ways to maintain a healthy home environment is also the simplest and most well-known one: Regular cleaning. By regularly dusting, vacuuming, and wiping down surfaces, you can significantly reduce the presence of harmful bacteria and viruses in your home.

Take charge of your home's cleanliness by ensuring regular and thorough cleaning. It's a simple yet effective way to maintain a healthy home environment. Remember to use detergents that are not only environmentally friendly but also safe for your health.

Your efforts will be rewarded with a healthier living space, giving you a sense of control and security in these uncertain times.

 

Keep everything clean and sterile

 

Remember, the cleaner your home is, the fewer bacteria it will naturally have, leading to a healthier and more inspiring living space.

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. This could be a cozy corner with a comfortable chair and a bookshelf or a room with soft lighting and calming decor. 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. This will not only contribute to your overall mental health but also reassure you in your pursuit of 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 equally important recommendation that will undoubtedly assist you in your journey to create a healthy home environment is entry restriction. Remember, you're not alone in this journey.

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's no shame in putting yourself first. Remember, prioritizing your own well-being is not selfish; it's a necessity for a healthy home environment.

We don't want to add to your stress, but it's vital that you remain resolute in this significant decision. Those who bring toxic influences may attempt to weaken your resolve - stand firm!
