Use Fruit as Decor

You can easily keep a bowl of fresh fruit in the living room, office, or dining room. Fruit is a symbol of abundance — not to mention a great snack!

Illuminate Your Space With Salt Lamps

A recent trend has taken to the use of Himalayan Salt Lamps. They are believed to decrease air pollution and negative ions caused by electronic devices, in addition to reducing asthma and allergy symptoms. So not only do they offer a soft glow on your shelf or table, but there are some pretty neat health benefits that claim to come with it!

Clear your Clutter

I know, I know, this sounds like a no brainer but here is why you should … Decluttering is 100 percent free, and it creates lots of space for peace and harmony. In fact, if you find things to sell as you clear your clutter, you might actually make money! Like that vase your mother in law insisted you have, it's not your style or taste and it sits in that deep cabinet above your refrigerator only to collect dust. Go ahead, sell it on Ebay or Letgo, or any other app out there, just get rid of it!

Try Simple Aromatherapy

A small bottle of lavender essential oil can go the distance in space shifting. Add a few drops of the oil to your next bath, sprinkle it into the dryer for the last minute or two of drying your sheets, try it with water in a spray bottle as a high-energy space refresher or make your life even simpler and purchase a diffuser. Don’t underestimate the power of scent; it can calm, energize or refresh you essentially without a lift of your finger so take advantage of it!

Everything you do to polish and organize your space helps to refresh your mind and your whole life. The color and energy can inspire more creativity, the light and clarity can open you up to new opportunities, the richness of nature and art can fuel your days with abundance ... and it's all so simple, you can start today!
