10 things in the house that make us happier
How to make your home beautiful and cozy, while attracting happiness and success to yourself – in the collection of Wday.ru.
Even if you live in your dream apartment in cleanliness and comfort, this does not mean that the interior attracts happiness, harmony and success to you. When designing a space, attention should be paid not only to the color combination of furniture and walls, but also to accessories. We’ve collected 10 must-have items in your home.
1. Green or yellow colors
Yellow and green are associated with summer, which means good mood. This fact is confirmed by psychologists all over the world, calling all shades of sand and grass the most joyful and positive. And the Pantone Institute, the main trendsetter in the world of color, declared 2021 bright yellow. So we advise, if not to repaint the walls in the proposed tones, then at least to place color accents. By the way, we have noticed by our own example that even in the gloomiest weather, looking at yellow and green, you feel much better!

Many are sure that buying fresh flowers (especially for no reason and for yourself) is a waste of money. But we are ready to argue with that. Consider that you are taking some amount from your budget for a good mood. And all because the smell of your favorite roses or peonies can instantly make you smile for no reason. Well, the fact that a bouquet is able to decorate any interior, we think, is not worth talking about.
3. Scented candles with vanilla scent
The scent of vanilla is said to relieve tension, soothe and normalize sleep. Meanwhile, fire is able to rid a person of negative thoughts. With this arrangement, we recommend burning a vanilla scented candle before bed.
If the house does not yet have family photos in a beautiful frame, be sure to correct this mistake in the interior. Moreover, British scientists say that looking at old footage makes us happier and calmer. The only place you shouldn’t keep your pictures is in your bedroom.
Girls’ best friends are not diamonds, but books! And not their electronic versions, but real, paper ones. Especially good are those that have been passed down in your family from generation to generation. They store a special energy from which you can recharge and become happier.
Indoor plants and the air in the room purify and improve the mood. Just imagine how curious it is to watch your favorite cactus or ficus grow. And by the way, did you know that, according to Feng Shui, almost all plants have their own meanings: some, for example, attract financial wealth, others help to establish relationships with family and friends.
7. Clean windows
Why is it advisable to wash the windows in autumn? Not only to be known as a good housewife. This is also important because more ultraviolet radiation and sunlight in general penetrate through clean windows. In winter, both are sorely lacking. And the dirt on the glass absorbs up to 60 percent of the light. The result is a gloomy depression. By the way, ultraviolet light has bactericidal properties. So dirty windows deprive us not only of a good mood, but also of free – and very pleasant – disinfection.
8. Comfortable bed
And by no means a sofa. Sleeping on the couch is permissible except as a student. An adult who really cares about himself should have ideal sleeping conditions: a comfortable bed, good linens, a cozy blanket, a comfortable pillow and a suitable microclimate in the bedroom. Otherwise, in the morning you will wake up broken, tired, and you will have to forget what a refreshing dream is. Well, what happiness is there?
9. Order in the house
No, we are not out of tediousness. Psychologists have repeatedly said that a mess in the house signals problems with a person’s mental balance. Because of depression, often there is no strength even to wipe the dust, not to mention a complete cleaning. But there is also the opposite effect: if you still overpower yourself and clean up, depression begins to recede. Examples of the wonderful transformation of rooms can be found HERE.
And although cats and dogs do not belong to interior items, we could not but include them in our list. There are many reasons why you should have a cat. And no less – take a puppy into the house. There will definitely be more worries, but also more joy – take my word for it.
