When you walk into the house after a tiring and stressful day at work you long to just relax in the comfort of your home. Your life is pretty sweet; with a happy marriage, health children and good health you can’t really complain. Being the perfectionist that you are, you can’t help but strive for more. You want a simple and carefree life without any ongoing tension or stress in the air. It is time to switch up the way your home operations and make it a more positive environment for everybody. From better quality food to more family time together, you will soon be able to see a huge difference in the way you and your loved ones work together and communicate in the household.
1.Cook From The Heart
There is nothing more heartwarming than a healthy and delicious home cooked meal. Dinner time can truly bring a family together so why not try and spruce up your recipes a little bit? Invest in a cool new copper crisper which will work in your oven without any added oils or fat. Deliciously browned food, cooked to perfection without the added calories, what could be more enticing?
2. Quality Time is Everything
Everybody in your home has an extremely hectic schedule, but it is important to take a step back sometimes and spend time together. Organise a fun activity at least once a month, so that you can all come together, laugh and reconnect after super busy times apart.
3. Put Down the Phones
Mobile phones and social media can become a huge divider between families, so don’t let it happen to yours. Make sure that phones are put away during meal times and family discussions. Limit your time texting, taking calls and scrolling through social media platforms too, so that you can always stay present and enjoy the moment.
4. Share The Chores
If you are left to tackle all of the chores by yourself every single day, this is going to take a huge toll on you. Make a chore chart for the whole family so that you are not the only person responsible for cleaning the house, doing the dishes and taking out the trash. The more people that can pitch in, the easier the jobs will be.
5. Talk It Out
Never go to bed in a fight; if you and your partner have a disagreement simply talk about it. There is no point having silly arguments hanging over your head.
You notice all the time that some of your friends are not happy within their household. They argue in front of the kids and spend far too much time dwelling over social media. You never want these habits to creep into your family home, so it is time to set the ground rules sooner rather than later. Your family will be living in a much calmer, friendlier and healthy environment if you take on board all five of these handy hacks. Get everybody on board together and you will never see a sad face ever again!
