Rearrange your furniture as a simple way to give your home a new lease of life

Do you like to do a spring clean as the days get longer? It is a great time to refresh after the long winter; a spring clean and rearranging your furniture could be just the thing to give your home a new lease of life.

Spring is a time for a refresh, and many of us do a giant 'Spring Clean' as the temperatures rise and the days get longer. Throw open your windows and cut fresh daffodils for your kitchen; have a clear-out and get your home looking and feeling spick and span.

Rearranging your furniture allows us to clean properly underneath and behind the furniture, and it can have other significant benefits.

  • It can help solidify your sense of safety.
  • Spark your creativity.
  • The process physically helps you ground yourself.
  • And it can help you embrace change.
  • Increases your dopamine levels while reducing cortisol.
  • A change is as good as a rest - sometimes, a change is all we need to feel brand new and refreshed.
  • Have different layouts for different seasons - e.g., move the living room around for winter to accommodate the Christmas tree.
  • An opportunity to fix/replace old or broken furniture and to declutter and organise your stuff.
  • According to Psychology Today, rearranging a room can elevate your mood, instilling satisfaction, effectiveness, creativity and comfort. It's also a simple way to clear your mind; just as you clean the room's clutter while rearranging your furniture, your mind becomes quickly grounded and clearer. (Oct 18)
  • Get the Feng shui just right. Give yourself a fresh start. Get creative with your space - we spend so long in our homes that it makes sense to make it a desirable place to be.

A change can help alleviate our mood, and perhaps, if you are feeling a bit down in the dumps and not particularly happy with your home at the moment, it might just be enough to help you fall back in love with your home.
