After a long, hard day of office—or work from home, for now—we all need a place to go and relax. If you’re not a bad person and rather spend your free time getting facials in a spa to wind down, we get that the lockdown situation may be difficult for you.

But that’s not to say that all hope is lost. Take this as an opportunity to turn your bathroom into your own personal retreat! If your bathroom is super messy, tiny, and not-so-stylish, don’t be disheartened— most bathrooms are. Use these simple tips to transform your bathroom into a rejuvenating oasis of relaxation.

Clear All Clutter

Most of us are guilty of not organizing our bathrooms. Bathroom products can be difficult to place, which leads to lots of clutter overtime. And you know what’s been widely recognized to increase stress levels? That’s right—clutter!

Clearing up clutter is a sure-fire way to get your bathroom to look more organized and feel more relaxing. Throw away any old, empty bottles you may have, and store the rest in a cupboard. Better yet—invest in shelves. Install a few tiers of shelves on your walls, add a few baskets for towels, some candles and voila! Instant spa retreat.

Calming Scents and Greenery

Plants are a great way to bring the outside inside. They purify the air and promote a soothing environment. They make an area look more sophisticated and inviting, so go for some easy-to-care-for succulents such as aloe vera. Add some calming scents to the mix to help you de-stress. Pick a pine, lavender or chamomile candle as these scents are known to help induce sleep, decrease stress and lower anxiety.

Set the Mood

Harsh lighting in bathrooms can make it difficult for one to wind down. Spas usually employ soft, dim lighting that helps you relax. Install a dimmer switch, or use candles to save on your electric bill. You can even get a speaker installed in your ceiling or invest in a waterproof speaker for a more authentic experience. It’s been proven that music helps reduce anxiety, so set up a soothing Spotify playlist for yourself and reap the benefits.

Reglaze Your Tub

Reglazing your tub will completely transform the appearance of your bathroom. It’ll get rid of the cracks, stains, scratches and rust that may be causing you anxiety. It’s easy on the budget, eco-friendly, and can be done in no time. If you’re a little bit on the daring side, reglaze your tiles as well. Choose a relaxing color scheme such as blues and greens, to make your bathroom look and feel more spacious, like a spa. Get a tub tray, grab a book, run a hot bath and treat yourself to a wonderful at-home spa experience!
