Use the power of scent
smell has psychological effects, so use oils or candles to evoke good feelings in your home. “Researchers have learned that lavender helps people fall asleep so that can be good for the bedroom, and lemon can be good to smell when you’re trying to do cognitive work like in your home office,” Dr. Augustin says. Floral scents also elicit positive emotions.
