It\u2019s the perfect time to start fresh\u2014the positive vibes are flowing, inspiration for bettering yourself is all around, and anything seems possible.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>While fostering new healthy habits is typically the goal come January 1, it\u2019s easy to lose sight of just how much your surroundings can impact your impending \u201cnew year, new you\u201d success. We all spent much of 2020 (and yes, 2021) making pandemic improvements to our homes, but with all the time we continue to spend laying low, even those may be starting to feel a little stale.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Enter: These 10 fresh ideas to help you create a calming, happy, healthy home. From easy budget-friendly swaps that will transform your morning to the unexpected addition that can reduce your blood pressure (really!), these tips are all geared towards giving your abode the TLC it deserves this year. And who knows? They may just end up changing your life\u2014or at the very least, make you a more productive, less stressed version of yourself. We\u2019ll take it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-turn-towards-the-light\"><strong>Turn Towards the Light<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that, in many parts of the world, sunlight is in short supply during the winter months (cue the extra <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/product\/8\/here-comes-the-sun\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">vitamin D<\/a>!). Whether you suffer from a clinical condition like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/diseases-conditions\/seasonal-affective-disorder\/symptoms-causes\/syc-20364651\">seasonal affective disorder<\/a> or just consider yourself the human equivalent of a houseplant (the more sun, the better), the dim first quarter of the year can lead to you feeling sluggish, tired, and unmotivated. An easy solution? A bit of furniture rearranging. Observe how the sunlight moves throughout your space and how <em>more<\/em> of it could benefit your day. This can mean moving your bed to face the sunrise to make those early mornings a bit easier or placing your WFH desk in front of the window that gets the best afternoon rays to help you power through that 3 p.m. slump. If playing furniture Tetris sounds too daunting, try swapping in sheer shades instead\u2014or at least washing your windows\u2014to maximize the light you <em>do<\/em> get.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mix-up-your-staples\"><strong>Mix Up Your Staples<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>We all thrive on routine, but that doesn\u2019t mean it doesn\u2019t get a little dull every once in a while. To keep things fresh, swap some luxe staples into your every day to reinvigorate even the most mundane tasks. Things like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aesop.com\/us\/p\/body-hand\/hand\/resurrection-aromatique-hand-wash\/\">splurgy handsoap<\/a>, high-end <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pineapplecollaborative.com\/products\/the-olive-oil\">olive oil<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/weezietowels.com\/products\/piped-edge-hand-towels?variant=12429398540341\">personalized handtowels<\/a> can go a long way in bringing new thoughtful energy to your home\u2014and your daily routine.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paint-a-mood-boosting-hue\"><strong>Paint a Mood-Boosting Hue<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"a2a8a1\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #a2a8a1;\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-958154544.jpg\" alt=\"Woman Painting Wall Healthy Home\" class=\"wp-image-28324 not-transparent\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>Color is one of the easiest ways to switch the vibe of your home, while also influencing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fpsyg.2015.00368\/full\">how you feel and function<\/a> within your space. This year, use paint as a tool to bring more of your desired energy to your space. Want to crush it at your creative gig? Coat the walls of your office in a soothing green hue (also the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benjaminmoore.com\/en-us\/color-overview\/color-palettes\/color-of-the-year-2022\">Color of the Year<\/a> for 2022, according to many paint companies), which has been shown to boost creativity and work performance. <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0146167212436611\">One study<\/a> found that after a brief glimpse of the color green, participants had enhanced creative performance.

Is a zen outlook on your list for 2022? Then blue is your shade, psychologically nudging you towards <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/32365947\/\">inner peace and serenity<\/a>. It\u2019s also a great bedroom color for those who struggle with winding down and turning off their brain at night.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-add-some-greens\"><strong>Add Some Greens\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Plants are a vital component to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentable.co\/blog\/make-your-rented-house-feel-like-home\/\">making your house feel like home<\/a>, so if you don\u2019t already have a few (living!) plant babies around your house, consider 2022 the year you make it happen. While houseplants are touted for their air-purifying qualities (which they <em>do<\/em> do\u2014just often <a href=\"https:\/\/sitn.hms.harvard.edu\/flash\/2019\/house-plants-dont-really-clean-indoor-air\/\">not in high enough quantities<\/a> to make a huge difference), they\u2019re actually more beneficial to other aspects of your health, like blood pressure and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/stress-awareness-day-boost-happiness-lower-cortisol\/\">cortisol<\/a> levels. A <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/19568835\/\">recent Japanese study<\/a> concluded that <em>Shinrin-yoku<\/em>, or the act of \u201cforest bathing\u201d and spending time surrounded by nature, can have a significant impact on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/benefits-of-spending-time-in-nature\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">lowering your stress levels and blood pressure<\/a>, as well as increasing your <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/17903349\/\">white blood cells<\/a>.

Still, auditing your spaces is key to making sure your home functions in a way that reduces your stress rather than adding to it. Instead of overhauling every corner of your home (and driving yourself crazy in the process), take a few days to walk through each room and assign a \u201cfunction\u201d to the space that\u2019s aligned with one of your goals for the year. For example, if you want to get better at meal prepping throughout the week, create a prep zone where your food storage containers, cutting boards, and other necessities are within arm\u2019s reach. Likewise, if an adult-worthy nighttime routine is on your wishlist this year (we\u2019re talking a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/skin-care-routine-order\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">multi-step skincare routine<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/how-to-start-meditating\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">meditation<\/a>\u2014the whole jam), then make small swaps in your bedroom that ladder up to this goal, like removing your television, investing in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/mini-skincare-fridge\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">skincare fridge<\/a> for under your nightstand, or snagging an organizer for your journals and TBR books.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-create-a-concentration-nook\"><strong>Create a Concentration Nook<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"b09d89\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b09d89;\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-846758880.jpg\" alt=\"Woman Reading Book Healthy Home\" class=\"wp-image-28326 not-transparent\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>No matter how organized and streamlined the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/types-of-rest\/\">rest<\/a> of your home is, sometimes you just need a change of scenery. Enter: the concentration nook. Trust us, it\u2019s a lot less strict than it sounds. To make it work for you, simply choose an unused corner of your home and outfit it with a cozy chair or floor pillow, plush throw, and adjustable light. Save the spot for \u201cspecial occasions,\u201d like when you really need to focus on perfecting that presentation or want to treat yourself to an uninterrupted 20-minute reading session. Having a nook away from the bustle of the rest of your home to refocus (or relax) will help you mentally reset.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shop-with-symbolism\"><strong>Shop With Symbolism<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>More and more, retailers are noticing the connection between our mental and physical health and our home environments. One result of this awareness? Home decor items that are both beautiful and packed with symbolism. If you\u2019re hoping to lean into healthy living at home this year, consider picking up items that speak to both your design vibe <em>and<\/em> the hopes and wishes you have for a new year. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.littleboxofrocks.com\/collections\/wellness-shop\">Decorative crystals<\/a> are a no-brainer, as are the charming printed throw blankets from <a href=\"https:\/\/superstitchous.com\/\">Superstitchous<\/a> that symbolize everything from <a href=\"https:\/\/superstitchous.com\/products\/nazar-eye-blanket\">protection<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/superstitchous.com\/products\/cherry-blanket\">harmony<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/superstitchous.com\/products\/loquat-blanket\">luck<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/superstitchous.com\/products\/pomegranate-blanket\">fertility<\/a>.

Shop for a <a href=\"https:\/\/vitruvi.com\/products\/white-stone-porcelain-diffuser\">stylish essential oil diffuser<\/a>, then get to work combining signature home scents for different parts of your day. Citrusy notes (think: lemon, grapefruit, or bergamot) are great for your early morning spin sesh, while scents like cinnamon, peppermint, and rosemary will come in clutch during that 3 p.m. WFH slump. At night, try winding down with a whiff of relaxing oils like lavender, clary sage, chamomile, or frankincense. Lavender, in particular, has been shown to <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/18053656\/\">reduce stress and enhance sleep<\/a>. One study even found that lavender aromatherapy can help <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/31780012\/\">increase melatonin levels<\/a> (which helps you fall asleep and stay asleep).<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-splurge-on-habit-helpers\"><strong>Splurge on Habit Helpers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Splurge on a few strategic habit helpers that will not only upgrade your space but also your routine. Before you panic, know we\u2019re not suggesting you go break the bank at The Container Store. Rather, start a wish list of one or two things that may make each of your goals a bit more easily attainable this year. Need to be better about taking your vitamins (and organizing your medicine cabinet in the process)? <a href=\"https:\/\/keepyourcadence.com\/pages\/shop-all\">Magnetic pill capsules<\/a> may do the trick.\u00a0 If you\u2019re hoping a promotion is in your future, a cute desk organizer or comfy swivel chair can help you get there. Looking to kick off each day with a greens-packed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/post-workout-smoothie-recipes\/\">smoothie<\/a>? Treat yourself to <a href=\"https:\/\/thebeast.com\/products\/b10-health-blender?variant=38188041371839\">a single-serve blender<\/a> that\u2019s easy to clean and pretty enough to leave on your countertop. Before you know it, you\u2019ll have fostered a healthy home environment that helps you check off your goals and feel your best.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-change-whats-at-eye-level\"><strong>Change What\u2019s at Eye-Level<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re bored and uninspired by your home, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019re bringing that dull energy to other tasks in your life\u2014<em>especially<\/em> if you work from the same space. One of the best (and cheapest!) ways to mentally and emotionally stimulate yourself is to refresh home items your eyes rest on as they move about the room. This means the big stuff can stay, but the little things (think: pillows, throws, art, and more) can get a quick refresh. This doesn\u2019t have to mean buying a whole slew of new stuff either. Something as simple as painting the frame your favorite piece of art is in a bold color, rearranging your bookshelves, or laying down a colorful accent rug can help inject your space with fresh energy that you can then carry with you throughout your day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<div  class=\"products-block -mx-4 md:mx-0 my-10\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/product\/65\/ashwagandha-calm-gummies\" class=\"text-xs text-dark hover:!text-dark flex items-center border border-light rounded p-4 group !no-underline mb-4 relative pb-16 sm:pb-4\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"shrink-0 mr-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.humnutrition.com\/assets\/860eff00-7edc-11f0-a0ef-c10dbf4f15a4.png\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" class=\"object-cover transition-opacity group-hover:opacity-80 !mb-0\" alt=\"Ashwagandha Calm Gummies\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grow pr-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mb-2 flex flex-col sm:flex-row sm:items-center divide-x-0 sm:divide-x divide-light text-sm\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pt-1 pr-2 flex\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"flex mr-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"mr-1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"17\" height=\"16\"><path d=\"m11.532 4.697 4.353.663c.36.053.664.316.828.64.066.397 0 .791-.288 1.06l-3.157 3.193.745 4.581a1.01 1.01 0 0 1-.39.978c-.3.188-.698.25-1.022.072l-3.888-2.14-3.889 2.14c-.327.178-.724.116-1.024-.072a1.008 1.008 0 0 1-.388-.978l.745-4.581L1 7.06C.713 6.79.646 6.397.713 6c.162-.324.464-.587.827-.64l4.35-.663L7.842.563c.16-.344.5-.563.87-.563.372 0 .711.219.872.563z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"mr-1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"17\" height=\"16\"><path d=\"m11.532 4.697 4.353.663c.36.053.664.316.828.64.066.397 0 .791-.288 1.06l-3.157 3.193.745 4.581a1.01 1.01 0 0 1-.39.978c-.3.188-.698.25-1.022.072l-3.888-2.14-3.889 2.14c-.327.178-.724.116-1.024-.072a1.008 1.008 0 0 1-.388-.978l.745-4.581L1 7.06C.713 6.79.646 6.397.713 6c.162-.324.464-.587.827-.64l4.35-.663L7.842.563c.16-.344.5-.563.87-.563.372 0 .711.219.872.563z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"mr-1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"17\" height=\"16\"><path d=\"m11.532 4.697 4.353.663c.36.053.664.316.828.64.066.397 0 .791-.288 1.06l-3.157 3.193.745 4.581a1.01 1.01 0 0 1-.39.978c-.3.188-.698.25-1.022.072l-3.888-2.14-3.889 2.14c-.327.178-.724.116-1.024-.072a1.008 1.008 0 0 1-.388-.978l.745-4.581L1 7.06C.713 6.79.646 6.397.713 6c.162-.324.464-.587.827-.64l4.35-.663L7.842.563c.16-.344.5-.563.87-.563.372 0 .711.219.872.563z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"mr-1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"17\" height=\"16\"><path d=\"m11.532 4.697 4.353.663c.36.053.664.316.828.64.066.397 0 .791-.288 1.06l-3.157 3.193.745 4.581a1.01 1.01 0 0 1-.39.978c-.3.188-.698.25-1.022.072l-3.888-2.14-3.889 2.14c-.327.178-.724.116-1.024-.072a1.008 1.008 0 0 1-.388-.978l.745-4.581L1 7.06C.713 6.79.646 6.397.713 6c.162-.324.464-.587.827-.64l4.35-.663L7.842.563c.16-.344.5-.563.87-.563.372 0 .711.219.872.563z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"mr-1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"17\" height=\"16\"><path d=\"m8.713 3 1.54 3.61 3.46.58L11.207 10l.588 4-3.082-1.878zm4.555 7.253 3.157-3.193c.288-.269.354-.663.288-1.06-.164-.324-.467-.587-.828-.64l-4.353-.663L9.584.562A.965.965 0 0 0 8.713 0a.965.965 0 0 0-.871.562L5.89 4.697l-4.35.663c-.363.053-.665.316-.827.64-.067.397 0 .791.287 1.06l3.157 3.193-.745 4.581a1.01 1.01 0 0 0 .388.978c.3.188.697.25 1.024.072l3.889-2.14 3.888 2.14c.324.178.721.116 1.021-.072a1.01 1.01 0 0 0 .391-.978z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t4.6\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pt-1 sm:pl-2 text-medium\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t539 Reviews\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text-base font-semibold mb-1 group-hover:text-primary\">Ashwagandha Calm Gummies<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mb-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsupports stress relief for a calm, clear mind (formerly Calm Sweet Calm)\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"absolute bottom-4 left-4 right-4 sm:bottom-0 sm:left-0 sm:right-0 sm:relative inline-flex justify-center bg-primary group-hover:bg-primary-light text-white rounded py-3 px-12 leading-none text-center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"pr-1.5 border-r border-primary-lightest\">$26<\/span><span class=\"pl-1.5\">SHOP NOW<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"self-start\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These simple swaps will leave you ready to conquer 2022 from the comfort of your own home.
