Here are some reasons why you should implement a coastal method into your home.
Unplug everything
These days the world goes by day after day, and we hardly notice due to the fact we are so tuned into technology and devices that we seem to miss everything else like things that are occurring outside mother nature. Decrease the stress inside and unplug yourself from devices and social media. Go for a walk or enjoy a swim even have a go at beach volleyball. You will be surprised at how better you will feel unplugging. This goes for the children to get them away from the screen and outside playing in the fresh air. If you don’t live on the coast, you can always create a beach backyard.
Keeping calm
Having coastal home interiors means that you most likely have a water feature or fountain somewhere in your front or backyard. Flowing and wavy water alters the waves in the brain. This can help you to settle into a very relaxing state. This can help to rejuvenate the mind and body. Even if you have a small water feature, you can still sit by it, close your eyes and imagine the beach. Even better if you love right opposite the beach or by a lake you can hear the natural sounds of the ocean or lake water flowing
Sleep better
Have you spent a day at the beach and slept so well that night? The reason is because of the healthy negative ions that are in the sea air, and they help you to absorb oxygen faster. The negative ions help to stabilise the serotonin in the body, which is linked to your mood and stress. This is often why people who have been on holidays and have visited a beach find they feel well restored. Adding salt lamps to your home can give you the same effect of having salt in the air. Just another benefit to having a coastal themed home. Ensure you keep these salt lamps away from your pets; they can be quite dangerous to our furry friends if they get access to it.
Get out to the world
When we live in the city, we find most of our time is spent staying indoors. Spending time outside is essential to soak up some sunshine to help your body take in calcium, which is beneficial for many things. Design your garden with a coastal theme so you will feel more relaxed in the backyard which will encourage you to be outside more.
There are many benefits to the mind, body and spirit when living near the beach. While some people don’t have that chance, they can bring the beach to their backyard. There are so many sites where you can get ideas on how to create your beach in your yard. If you are unsure where to start when it comes to a coastal design in your home, you can consult with an interior designer who can help you come up with a plan that you like. No matter how you create your coastal home as long as you can relax and take some time out, the work is done.
