What brings you joy?

6/11/2023

Your home is your cocoon, a place of calm and joy, where you can relax and recharge for another day at the grind.

That’s as far as the fairy tales go. The reality often looks different, and it doesn’t matter if you work from home or commute each day, if you live on your own or with a whole family, in the city or out in the countryside.

Most homes are not quite the easy to manage space to retreat back to, but they pose a set of issues, demands and requirements of their own. We all need to tidy up and wash the dishes, make our beds and clean the bathroom, of course.

But that doesn’t mean there aren’t areas in your home that make you feel welcome and cosy. Dare I say: they make you feel happy? It’s important to feel happy in your home as this is the place where you recharge to be able to face life outside your cocoon for another day.

Do you have a happy space in your home? Maybe it’s that comfy seat where you can read next to a nice cup of coffee while listening to the rain outside. Perhaps it’s a spacious desk where you can craft and leave things out without remorse. Having such a place is even more important if you are working remotely and part of your home has become an office space!

Either way, we all need at least one of those places at home that is free of obligations, where no potential household project is anywhere in sight, and where you can simply turn fully to the thing you love to do, be it a spot of yoga, some reading, crafting, or just watching the world go by.
Here’s your task for today: think about what truly makes you happy when you are at home (not holidays or going on an antiques hunt), I mean “at home, in your free time”. Is there a place where you can enjoy this joyful activity in your home without interference?

If you find that there is no such space, alternatively, consider if there is a way to rearrange things so that you create such a spot.

I wish you happy thoughts and good luck.
