6 Reasons You Should Rearrange Your Bedroom This Weekend

6 Reasons You Should Rearrange Your Bedroom This Weekend

3 Mins Read

If you are feeling in a slump, the solution may be to switch things around in the bedroom department. Rearranging your bedroom furniture may be just what the doctor ordered to get you out of the rut you may find yourself in at the change of the season. Not only will moving things around not cost you a single dime, but it could also be an excellent way to sneak in a good workout and give you the feeling of having a brand new bedroom – for free. In addition, here are six benefits you can find by rearranging your bedroom. 

 

Get Rid of Clutter

Clutter has a way of sneaking in even in the most minimalist households. From clothes that do not fit your body or your style anymore to outdated décor and unused products, things tend to pile up even faster in the bedroom. After a couple of weeks (or months), you may not be able to see the issue anymore and just feel a general sense of oppression as you feel the walls closing in on you. 

Rearranging your bedroom is the perfect occasion for a good purging session. Not only will it give you a new perspective as you move furniture, but having to move things will give you a new motivation to get rid of the excess you have accumulated in the past couple of years. 

 

Inspire Creativity

Rearranging your bedroom furniture could give you a big boost in creativity. If you have become set in your ways, you may have gotten used to making do with uncomfortable situations. An empty bedroom is the perfect blank slate to come up with creative solutions and feel inspired again about how you use your space.

For example, if storage has become an issue, moving your bed to a different corner could open some space to add a new dresser. If you are having problems waking up, you may want to place your bed next to the window to greet the day with some natural light. 

 

Adapt to Changing Lifestyle

Our lifestyle evolves constantly. Have you picked up a new hobby, like sewing or playing an instrument? Have you started including yoga or another workout in your morning routine? Is working from home part of your everyday reality? Chances are that your bedroom is called on to fulfil multiple functions throughout the day. 

If you find yourself tight on space, then rearranging your bedroom furniture can help adapt your setup to include these new additions. Not only is it more motivating to keep up with your newfound good habits, but it will also contribute to making your space work better for you. 

 

Feel Happier

Rearranging your furniture can be a big mood boost. You will feel more accomplished, your bedroom will feel more like yourself, and your space will be more comfortable. There is no downside to it! Since rearranging your bedroom is typically not a big time commitment and can usually be accomplished over the course of a weekend, it is an easy and affordable way to improve your quality of life for many months or even years to come. 

 

Deep Clean

Even if you have made a habit of staying on top of regular cleaning, things can get a little iffy when it comes to hidden corners such as under the furniture, area rugs that are stuck under heavy items, and areas that may not be easy to access in your current set up. 

Moving furniture around is the perfect occasion for a good deep clean, even in zones that hardly ever see the light of day, like all the dust bunnies that accumulated under a heavy wardrobe and may affect air quality. It is also a good way to remove furniture marks on the carpets and rugs, scrub marks on the wall, and ensure that some areas do not get overexposed to sun and daylight, causing discolouration in uneven places. 

 

Get a New Perspective

Changing the orientation of your bed, opening up your workspace, setting up a new organising system to get rid of clutter… These little things all contribute to giving you a new perspective on your life. For many people who do not feel entirely comfortable with their interiors but stand with the status quo, finally tackling this simple task could be the extra boost they need to get things in motion in other areas of their lives.
