Creating a Holistic Feel for your home is easier than you think!

Of course you know that you can change the energy and feel of your home with color, we’ve talked about that before. What other ways other than the obvious can we make this change? Let’s take a look.

I’m so tempted to start writing about the colors I’d like to use but I’m not. Like I said, I want to dig deeper and perhaps list a few ways to Holistically change your home that hasn’t been mentioned before.

Nature

The other day I found an Artist on my facebook stream who’s craft really caught my eye. His name is Zeke Wilhite and he carves wood. If you click in his name you can see his wood carvings on Pinterest.

I was drawn to his art because it’s a natural element and of course a sculpture. Here, you are bringing the outdoors in with wood. In my opinion, this is the best way to Holistically change your home. Anytime you can bring Nature inside, that alters the feel and energy of that space. What else can you bring into the home? You probably already have most of these already.

• rocks
• feathers
• sand
• branches
• bird nests
• dried flowers
• plants
• crystals
• water

A lot of this will also blend in with how to Feng Shui your home but I’ll leave that up to the expert in that field, Amanda Gates. Adding these elements alone will make a dramatic difference in how you feel in your home.

Animals

Did you just say “awe” when you looked at these cats? That feeling, phrase or even a thought, sent out a vibration into your home – a good vibration and that is what contributes to achieving a holistic feel for your home. See where this is going? Pretty simple right?

I know all of you have some type of animal in your home. From feline to reptile, animals which are living creatures, really add a tremendous energy to the home.

Music

Music is a very personal choice. I know some people love to relax to heavy metal – don’t ask me how but that’s what they love. Some people such as myself find Classical music very relaxing. Ambient, Soft Rock, Blue Grass, what ever genre you prefer is the one you bring into your home.

I also love the “holistic music” that is very hypnotic. Before I know it an hour has gone by and I’m either painting away or working in my office. Just great background music to relax by and that’s what having a Holistic Home is all about.

So there yo have it – Nature, Animals and Music. There elements to add to the home to get it on it’s way to creating a happy Holistic environment – and I didn’t say one thing about color!!! Funny.
