We always talk about the importance of getting a good night’s rest to regain energy and for our body to rebalance and regenerate. For this, it is essential to avoid stress, eat a good diet, exercise and create a healthy bedroom.

In this article we explain how to have a bedroom with clean and purified air, free of radiation, that transmits balance and serenity and allows you a good rest.

How to create a healthy bedroom

1. Clean air

An economical and natural solution to keep the air in our bedroom clean is to place a plant.

For the bedroom we recommend Sanseviera, a plant that purifies the air. This is supported by studies such as the one carried out in 2011 by researchers from the University of Hong Kong.

Therefore, it seems that it could be a good idea to include these types of plants in our bedroom. In addition to purifying the air, they will also bring some color to the room.

2. Sobriety in a healthy bedroom

It is said that our house is a reflection of our interior. The bedroom, because it is the place where we rest and, in many cases, we share with the couple, it should be a room that transmits clarity and serenity.

To do this, it should not be cluttered with furniture or objects. We will try to have the essentials and some decorative element, but respecting that there are empty spaces. And above all, that it is always in order. Although of course this is always a matter of personal preferences.

3. Lighting

Ideally a bedroom should have natural light, but in some cases this is not possible. In this case we can play with lamps that provide warmth.

The salt lamps from the Himalayas, which have a light orange very relaxing and warm plus we help neutralize electromagnetic radiation, can be a good choice.

4. A ventilated space

To have a healthy bedroom and mainly avoid the appearance of mites, but also to maintain a cozy space, we recommend ventilating the room daily.

If possible, allow the sun to shine directly on places where mites may be:

• bed sheets
• quilts
• curtains
• mattresses
• cushions
• rugs

In times of heat or halftime we can also leave the window open at night, if we are not in an area of ​​noise or too much light, previously placing a mosquito net, or leaving the blinds down or the curtain on.

In this way, the ventilation will be continued and we will avoid the feeling of closed that happens many times in the morning.

5. Scents in the bedroom

The smell of the bedroom is also a detail to take care of. Although a clean bedroom does not have to smell like anything in particular, some may have certain odors due to humidity or odors that come from outside.

If we want to aromatize our healthy bedroom, we can place incense, Armenian paper, resins that burn with charcoal, conventional air fresheners or essential oil diffusers.

We especially recommend the following scents:

• Lemon : to clean and disinfect the environment
• Mint : to refresh
• Ginger : to give heat
• Cinnamon : to stimulate
• Lavender: to relax
• Pink : to create a sweet and romantic space
• Eucalyptus : to clean the environment and improve respiratory problems
• Citrus (lemon, orange, tangerine): to improve mood and fight depression

6. Beware of mirrors if you are looking for a healthy bedroom

Feng-Shui tells us that it is not convenient to put mirrors right in front of the bed, since they alter the energies that precisely facilitate rest. Although this does not have to affect everyone.

One option is to cover the mirror at night, or we can even do the test for several days to see if we notice the difference, especially if we have problems sleeping well.

7. The bed to the North

Another popular key to creating a good sleeping environment is to try to have the head of the bed facing North.

If in some cases it is impossible due to the arrangement of the bed, then we can look for another direction. It is popularly said that it is better to avoid that it is directed towards the South, which is the most damaging option.
