5. Use Scents to Uplift the Energy in Your Home

When you think back to the most enjoyable or uplifting time of your life, what smell comes to mind? Did you enjoy any favorite foods growing up that represent to you family, safety or abundance? Tap into these feelings and their associated scents. Use them to uplift the energy of your home. When you envision your life two or ten years from now, create an entire image. Think about how your life will look, how it will feel and associate those images and feelings with your senses. What would you see, hear, smell, touch and taste?

find outside into our homes. We may also surround ourselves with images of waterfalls, mountains, or other appealing nature scenes. Experiment with what works best for you. How would it feel to have fresh flowers in your home every week?
You may also draw this seasonal energy into your home through the use of color and light. Consider enhancing natural light sources with indoor lighting that is flexible throughout the year, depending on which part of your house receives the least light at the time. When considering color, use colors that reflect the seasons. In the fall, add more warm, harvest colors to your spaces, like reds, oranges, and yellows. These changes in your home do not need to be dramatic nor expensive. Changing a tablecloth, napkins or other small items can bring a dash of color, transforming the feeling of an entire space.
Use essential oils or other natural scents, like flowers, outdoors, or cooking, to bring these scents into your space.
There are a myriad of ways that we can promote and enhance wellness in our lives. Connecting to and changing the energy in our homes is one way to create a stable foundation from which we can make many mindset and other actionable changes in our lives to create an inner and outer environment that is safe, secure and nurturing and that promotes wellness in our lives.
