Independently on where you are from, you have spent at least some time of the past Summer and Fall indoors. With the pandemic still raging and the social distancing measures and travel restrictions in place, the winter ahead won’t be too different from the past months.

However, if in summer we could at least enjoy time off in the garden soaking in all the Vitamin D needed to stay healthy, this winter will be different. The days are shorter, and the light, fresh air, and time in the garden will be limited. So, it is particularly important to turn your living room around now and create a space you can fully enjoy - this Christmas and beyond!
 
Let the Natural Light In

First off, swap the heavy drapes that cover your windows for lighter curtains. While you might have been saving them for the good season, this is a great time to let the natural light in and make your indoor living space a little healthier. Indeed, natural light is an essential component of a healthy lifestyle. It can supply you with vitamin D to keep your immune system healthy and strong and make you feel happier. Don’t underestimate how important this feature can be!

If you wish to get more light in, you might even consider moving your chair, armchair, or sofa near the window. In this way, you won’t need to switch the lights on too early, and you can save your eyes from strain. If your living room just does not receive enough light, upgrading the light fixtures might be a necessary step to a brighter living space!
 
Create a Reading Nook

If you have always loved to have a private space where you can spend a peaceful time in the company of your favorite book characters, it is time to create your own reading nook. Everything you will need is a source of light, a quiet corner, a comfy armchair, and a small side table to hold up your hot chocolate. Just don’t forget to complete the design with a few blankets, throws, and cushions.
 
Change Up Your Furniture

Upgrading your furniture and giving your home a modern look has never been as important as today. It can help you count on a timeless design for years to come and ensure that all the materials and details used are healthy, durable, and trustworthy - especially if there are kids in your household!

Make Enough Space to Exercise

Exercising is crucial, especially during this time in which opportunities to go out, meet others, and enjoy time outdoors are limited. While not everybody might like to run or pick up weights, it is crucial to have a place where you can put your mat and feel free to move. Whether you are looking at exploring new yoga practice or taking up practices such as HIIT, Tabata, or Pilates, there is enough time ahead for you to explore the many options!
