How to Create a Healthy Environment in Your Apartment

Apartment living offers many benefits.

For some people, apartment living is just a stepping stone to homeownership. For others, apartment living is the ideal lifestyle. Apartment living offers many benefits, often including great amenities and the option to live alone or share your space with a roommate. Whatever the stage of your life, making a home in an apartment can be great but it depends on some outside factors (your neighbors play a role for sure) and some work on your part. Read on for some tips for creating a healthy environment in your apartment.

Does It Bring You Joy?

n

This question has become a bit of a meme over the last few years, but it is an important place to start when you’re designing a healthy environment for your living space. Most people use the question to assess if they should keep something – in an effort to be minimalist, they throw out everything that doesn’t bring them joy. Don’t tie yourself down to the trend of minimalism if it doesn’t suit you, however. You can use the question of if it brings you joy to assess if you should add something to your living space as well – a plant, a poster, even a pet. Once you clear out the stuff that doesn’t bring you joy, make space to display the stuff that does so that you see it everyday.

Let In Light

Sunlight and fresh air are essential to a happy life. Curtains provide privacy and in the heat of summer they can help keep your space cool. They are also a great way to add color and personality to your space. You should take time to let sunlight into your apartment Each morning you can open your curtains and a window to let in light and fresh air and clear out the mustiness of overnight.

The Comfort Of Routine

n

Create a cleaning routine for your apartment so that clutter and mess don’t pile up. Having a dirty and cluttered living space is the fastest route to a poor living environment. It leads to poor mental health and becomes a self-perpetuating cycle that makes it harder to get back to a clean and orderly space the longer it goes. Set a routine of small cleaning tasks each night to stay on top of the cleaning and keep your apartment nice. You can also layer other routines (like a short walk or a visit to one of your apartment’s amenities) into your life to keep you happy.
