You refresh, reset, and regenerate in your bedroom. A person who meets the recommended sleep hours a night spends a third of their life in bed. Therefore, it is important to make the bedroom a comfortable and safe oasis. After a long day, you should retire in a welcoming bedroom and rest in tranquillity to properly recharge for the following day. One way that makes you relax is sleeping for at least seven hours which plays a significant role in stress reduction, better health, and happiness. But you cannot get quality sleep in an uncomfortable bedroom. Your bedroom should encourage sleep by the way it looks and feels.

Let us look at ways to turn your bedroom into a comfortable oasis to help you relax both mentally and physically.

Tidy Up and Declutter

Your bedroom should always be clean. A clean bedroom is aesthetically and hygienically beneficial, as the opposite can be stressful. With a fresh and clean space, your senses will be less overwhelmed. When you sleep in a clean space, you will appreciate what you love about the room and make you see its potential again.

Remove everything that you no longer need or use from the bedroom to avoid unnecessary clutter. You do not have to vacuum every day; make the bed, pick up gadgets, papers, and clothes that create a hectic and distracting atmosphere. As an alternative, decorate your bedroom with things that make you feel good, such as soft colors, flowers, a nice rug, or photos of loved ones. This will turn the room into a space for comfortable and happy thoughts.

Quality Bedding

The type of bedding in your bed affects sleep quality. When it comes to your sleep and bed, being comfortable is important; hence, you should invest in quality bedding. For starters, choose earthy but simple tones for your bedding to help you feel relaxed and calm.

The bedding should also be soft to your skin to make you relax. Get the softest sheets and blanket you can get and see your sleep quality improve. Do not forget to change your pillowcase every day. This is especially helpful for people with allergies. If you don’t have a laundry machine to clean the pillowcase, you can let it air out and then spray it with a fabric refresher.

Remove Electronics

As much as you want to be connected and up-to-date with current affairs, keep your phone, tablet, laptop, and TV out of the bedroom. These devices emit artificial blue-spectrum lights, which alter your circadian rhythm by hindering melatonin secretion. Instead of unwinding by watching a movie, you can instead read a book, talk with your spouse, or take some time to breathe and meditate.

Use Essential Oils to Scent Your Bedroom

Aromatherapy recognizes several scents as being useful in reducing stress. You can introduce scents into your bedroom by buying a light bulb ring, add a few drops of essential oils, and then turn on the lamp to warm the oil and scent the air. Another way is to buy a collection of dried herbs that have been treated with essential oils. Some of the most relaxing scents include ylang-ylang, valerian, sandalwood, chamomile, lemon, lavender, and orange.

Incorporate Earthy Pieces

Put fresh flowers in your sleeping space at least once a week. Other earthy things include natural stones, plants, and natural light.

Blackout Curtains

Your bedroom should have curtains that completely block out light, especially during the summer. The curtains will also be useful in keeping heat out of the bedroom during summer and keeping heat inside during winter. If you do not have blinds, you can improvise by getting a sheet and tape it on window grills.

Paint Your Walls in Natural Colors

It is essential to have calming colors in your bedroom. Some of the colors you can try are blue, green, brown, beige, and white. However, scientists recommended the color blue as it affects the autonomic nervous system which lowers blood pressure and heart rate and slows breathing. Color proponents say that blue calms, relaxes, and helps you fall asleep. If you cannot change the color of your walls, try adding sky-colored rugs, pillows, and blankets.
