Image Newsletter 5-12Boun giorno! This note comes to you from Italy! Traveling is one of my favorite things to do.  You get to see amazing new sights, meet incredible people, explore cultures that are so different from your own and step out of your ordinary day-to-day experience.  It also gives me a new-found appreciation for home and life when I return.

The amazing thing is you don’t have to go far to experience the energizing shift that traveling to Italy or anywhere in the world creates. Experiencing something new can happen just outside your front door.

Traveling entices me to notice the ceilings, bathrooms, flooring and every nook and cranny of buildings, inside and out. You can check out the design and architectural elements that I captured from Italy on my Home in Harmony Face Book Page. Incredible inspiration comes from these moments.

We live in a world where it is easy to get stuck in a rut and not notice the beauty and exquisiteness of life that abound. There are a few simple solutions that can move you out of this stagnant space and help you begin to explore the splendor.

First, notice your habitual patterns that make up your day and commit to changing at least 4 things in your daily routine. It can be as simple as driving to work a different way. No need to travel abroad to get a different perspective! When you change the monotony of the things you do consistently you will feel a shift in perspective, energy and vibrancy.

Second, choose something new to explore. Maybe you have been contemplating redoing something in your home but are unsure if you should or really want to. Begin by looking in magazines, on the Internet or exploring open houses in your neighborhood. This will open you to what is out there, what your options are and if you like varying items. Thus, giving you a new perspective. It will also make you look at your home from a new vantage point when you walk through your door.

Third, move or remove two items in each room of your home. This is a fun way to give your home a little lift. It will also help you to “see” your space from a fresh perspective. It is natural to become so accustom to each room in your home that you no longer truly notice the rooms or items within each room. It virtually fades into the background of your consciousness.  By moving or removing a few items your home will come back into focus with a crisp and rejuvenating outlook.

Noticing new things and breaking up daily habits can give you a renewed sense of vibrancy in your life and home.  You don’t need to travel to distant lands to find and appreciate harmony in your home!
