Have you ever noticed how certain small actions can completely shift your mood? Maybe it’s the way you make your morning coffee, the moment you light a candle in the evening, or even pausing for a deep breath before starting your day. These little moments—when done with intention—become rituals. And rituals have the power to […]
There are so many videos and blog posts out there about why your home might feel “off”, and how to fix it.
