Working from home has numerous advantages, including being able to organize your own time and staying close to your family. However, it also comes with a set of challenges, one of which is undoubtedly organizing your home office in a way that encourages productivity. The idea that the environment affects our mood, focus and performance is not something new. We can trace back its origins to the ancient philosophy of Feng Shui, which has the goal of harmonizing individuals with their surroundings. Here are a few ideas you can steal from this practice to get some much-needed Zen into your home office.
BEAUTY: Daily Lifestyle Routine For A Greater You.
My passions are Luxury, Beauty, Style, Fashion, and anything that helps me and others grow and glow. Those who know me well know that I adore talking about beauty and self-care tips, but today we are talking about caring for the "Inner You".
Lifestyle: BEST COCO CHANEL QUOTES ABOUT FASHION, LIFE & LUXURY.
I love Chanel, my family says I am the Chanel Queen when they see my Chanel Shrine Table lol, but not just because of the physical Items, it's what it stands for and what it means to me personally.
It's rather sad that People think when you surround yourself with luxury you are materialistic unfortunately this is not the case for everyone.
Interior Styling: Simple Ways To Style Your Home And Create Beautiful Vibes Around You.
The easiest way to create a designer look in your home is to add personality using home accessories- for example- Vases, Figures, Coffeetable books, Unique Luxury Items. The great thing I love about accessories like these is that you can change them with the seasons.
When styling your home, It's always good to mix textures and materials in your home to create depth and contrast, and when it comes to colour, be mindful of the shades you use if you want to achieve that high-end look. For Example - If you like magenta, add a pop of the colour here and there, don't paint the whole house with it, when you overdo it your home ends up looking a mess, but the home should feel comfortable, loving and welcoming, so always keep that fact in mind when styling your home. Another thing I love to see in the home is "Mirrors". Mirrors make a huge difference when styling the home. Brighten and amplify the light in a room with mirrors on walls opposing light sources. I love mirrors because they double the visual square footage of any room. Hang a series of three or four mirrors opposite a window to reflect the incoming light as well as the view. When it comes to updating your interiors, place a mirror on your largest wall to reflect as much light as possible back into the room, I love looking at mirrors in the home but not for vanity reasons, but to remind myself to be grateful and to live life in the moment while enjoying the little things. Adding a touch of luxury to each room is my number one tip when it comes to getting that designer look. Glitters and metallics add a little bling and work well in smaller rooms as features will reflect off them, giving the illusion of a bigger space. Don't forget to play around with lights, candles, fairy lights, Lamps etc, I love using these once in a while because they help set the right mood, add dimmers on all of your lights. Bright isn’t always right. Lightings like - table lamps, chandeliers, candles, battery-powered lights ― bring a lot of style into a room! I am very spiritual so I like to meditate a lot or just sit and admire the stars at night, and When I am unable to do this, I create a magical environment in my bedroom or study room. I love how lights and lamps make the room glow, you would feel like you are in another dimension, just forgetting about the worries and spending time in the moment is the best feeling, It's not normally easy especially during this period , but we must try to do everything to stay sane. Lastly, Remember "Less Is More". The term "less is more" means that having less of something makes a stronger and more enjoyable experience in the home. Strong colours and patterns, though sometimes amazing but can create a better effect when used sparingly in interior design, than when people cramp things up together in one place. The same rule also applies for mixing styles of furniture. I am always happy to read or hear your opinions and tips either via Email or In the Comment Section.

DIY - BEFORE MEETS AFTER 🎨.
I love taking time off social media often especially to detox and spend my time doing things that make me feel good like "Creativity". As we all try to adjust to our new normal we must not forget to take time out to recuperate, we must never let the negativity of the world stop us from doing the things we love.
Creativity doesn't wait for that perfect moment, everything you can imagine is real so 'Stay Creative".✂️
I had to get rid of those silver knobs first and wanted something different and bespoke.
Then I fetched my acrylic designs and added to the doors, I also changed the knobs.
And below is the final result, the main purpose for this post is to tell you not to think you can't surround yourself or your home with beautiful things, whatever you can imagine in this life can become a reality (Visualisation is Realisation), so get out those forgotten DIY projects/tools and do something with them today - trust me you will feel good about yourself.

Interior Decoration: Why It's Important To Add Natures colors To Your Home Decor . #InteriorDesignBlog #HowTo #Giveaways
Hi my lovelies, Its been a while, sometimes we get distracted by reality (what is reality eh?) lol, However, I am back now and I want to share some lovely tips and ideas with you all, many people sometimes wonder how to create a wonderful, colourful, positive living space without overdoing it, I hope I am able to help you out today.
For those who follow me on my Instagram --->(@lindaobella) you would see my different preferences when it comes to home decor & design.
1) Home Office Spaces -
I was playing around with colours over the past few months trying to find something that suits my mood, I went from all-white to grey and added a hint of gold but it still was not doing it for me, I later realised, I was vibrating towards "Emerald Green", I then discovered my birthstone is Emerald (Capricorn), and that was when I said that's it, I am going with my guts, and surrounding myself with Nature Vibes.
Self-Love - Why Loving Yourself Is Very Important - Here Are Ways To Practice Self Love. #selflove
Being kind to yourself helps you bounce back, live healthier, and stay on track.
Self-compassion and Self-Love is a way of relating to yourself that does not involve harshly judging or punishing yourself for every mistake you make, or every time someone does better than you.
“Self-compassion involves treating yourself with the same kindness, concern, and support you’d show to a good friend. When faced with difficult life struggles, or confronting personal mistakes, failures, and inadequacies, self-compassion responds with kindness rather than harsh self-judgment, recognizing that imperfection is part of the shared human experience.” (Neff & Dahm, 2015)
Adopt a mindful attitude in which you deliberately pay attention to your inner experience so that you can notice when you are beginning to shift into a negative state. The minute you realize that you are thinking negative thoughts about yourself or feeling anxiety in your body, stop and say to yourself, "This is a difficult moment," or, "I’m feeling distressed in my mind and body.” Trust me, people, I have experienced this time and time again to the point I blamed myself for failing for letting people into my mind and making me feel weak and helpless but I had to tell myself "NEVER AGAIN", once you notice you no longer do the things you love doing, once you notice you are beginning to become a stranger to yourself, once you notice you let go of your inner desires and needs for greatness just to please others then it is time to "Let Go" and start doing things for yourself, stand in front of that Bespoke Mirror and say
" I am Beautiful"
"I am Strong"
"I am Good Enough"
"I am who I want to be"
Practice daily affirmations. Our thoughts precede our emotions and behaviors.
*Recite mantras that encourage self-compassion. Bring your attention to being good to yourself.
*Journal your strengths and everything about you for which you are grateful. Document everything you accomplish, feel good about, do right, like about yourself, etc.
*Keep your self-talk positive. Turn down the volume of your inner critic and choose to be your best coach or cheerleader.
Smile, Laugh, Love, Be The Happiest Version Of Yourself, Let Go Of Pain, Of Hurt " Of Sadness, Let Go Of That Grudge you are holding onto as it will only bring you bitterness, Choose to be Happy and the rest will fall into place
*Set aside time for daily mindfulness practices such as meditation, deep breathing or progressive muscle relaxation. These devotions will help you connect with your highest self.
*Make time for leisure and hobbies. Time for play and enjoyment is an important aspect of celebrating the gift of life.
*Prioritize sleep and exercise. You must reboot and revitalize your physical being.
