Amidst our hectic lives, it’s nice to have a peaceful, quiet escape to relax and unwind.

In your own home, it’s fairly easy to turn your very own bathroom into a little private sanctuary where you can rest and recharge in solitude.

These tips will help turn your bathroom into a place you look forward to coming home to.

Incorporate Earthy Tones

Use rich earthy tones and warm colors around your bathroom to create a relaxing atmosphere. These colors, often used in spas, have a natural soothing effect.

Decorate with natural and organic elements.

Add some well placed natural elements like flowers, bamboo, plants and stones to really enhance the earthy vibes. Not only will adding plant life brighten your space, but it also helps to purify the air.

Use aromatherapy.

Scent is one of our strongest senses and has a great influence on our overall experiences. Use an oil diffuser, incense or scented candles to help your mind destress and further enhance the relaxing vibes in your space.

Take advantage of soothing sounds.

Either go “all out” and have a speaker system installed, or simply purchase a portable waterproof bluetooth speaker. Throw on some calming white noise or a meditation playlist to relax your mind and add a bit of ambiance.

Dim the lighting.

Add light dimmer controls or make use of candles to get the light just right, romanticize your atmosphere and set the mood.

Install a bathtub.

The priciest of tips on this list, but an important one at that. A soaking tub is the perfect place to escape the stress and pressure of your daily life and find a bit of peace and quiet.
