Creating a warmpth in my home

[Sun Sprite]

I have known many negative people to be able to create a perpetual chill in thier homes, regardless of the temperature.

My question is: How can I create a perpetul warmpth in my home? I want a feeling of warmpth and safety about me and my home. Of course, I naturally freeze if the temps dip below 80, so that is part of why, it would help prevent cold weather depressions.


Any suggestions?

Put a dead bolt on the door to keep the negative people out for starters. 8O

And create your home from your own heart outwards. It's your sanctuary afterall. :flowers:

On a practical note, lighting and the even the type of light bulbs you use can make a big difference in your enviroment. Also for the winter months you can by a light box which has helped alot of people with the winter depression. the Gaiam catalog sell them. :hahugh:

This has me thinking. How people are called cold or cold hearted when they are a negative person. How a person is called warm as well as friendly or a warm person when they are positive. Maybe it has to do with neutrons and electrons. Maybe we give energy that isn't just negative or positive but those things as well. Very interesting. I can't help sorry but its interesting.

Well, often a "cold" person won't accept you with open arms. They turn you away from the warmth of their arms, into the cold night so to speak. They will often hold you at a distant. I think that's where the "cold" come from. It's not a literal feeling, but it is a psychic and emotional feeling.

Whereas, a "warm" person will huggle you and accept you into their home and so on.

I have been told my house has a relaxed and a safe feeling about it, it makes me proud, what I do is try to keep negitivity out as much as possible, when I first move in I cleanse and purify then I place my protective amulets around all the openings, I keep dimmer lighting, and lots of candles, I have waterfalls in everyroom, and soft music if the TV isnt on, I have my crystals also about as decoration in each room, I also have a lavander jasmine {or whatever fits best} potpurri simmering 24- 7 and lots of plants, and lots of sunshine during the day. we also have a strict rule no yelling inside if you must yell you have to go out side.

a way u can create warmth in ur home is to have as much as a positive spirit as u can. I think sometimes people can leave their nasty energies.... and they are usually miserable or depressed.
create either a rich warm feel to ur home using colours, furniture and scents like baked apple or cinnimon spice.
For an uplifting feel you can create a fun sherbt coloured eclectic hippy atmosphere.
Either way the "air" tells alot:wave:

Good luck. My family's home has a rigid, tense atmosphere, even when there's really no one else around. My friends, sister, and I feel it - I haven't asked the parents or youngest sister. I've tried cleansing and tried to get positive/happy energies to permeate, but everyone is just so unhappy, there's no room for good things to take hold. :( I can't wait to move out

I agree with Astara. I always tell my clients, no overhead lighting, use soft lighting and lamps when possible, lots of greenery (it can be silk, but plants add automatic warmth to a home), warm colors on the walls (NO WHITE WALLS), candles, scents play an important role in the home as well. I guarantee you...with a warm color on the walls, a soft glow from the lights, candles burning and plants around the room....it will be warm and cozy!!

I agree with the others...make sure you do a good thorough cleansing, get some nice scents and plants and plenty of light, but not overhead...also, if you are bothered by lights (I am quite a bit), get some nice remnants of cloth of different colors and drape them over your lamps to subtly change the color of the room. (Make sure they won't catch on fire). This also works if you live someplace that won't let you have any other color than white walls.

First Rule : What lies within, Reflects without. That's a pro-active way of stating the Hermetic Axiom : As Above, So Below. So make the world inside your head a nice & warm place to be, and the outside environment, will begin to conform to that.

Next examine the placement of furniture, and the patterns of where you walk around. Things you use most, should be easy to get at. Don't place things, so that you will always be having to walk around them to get where you are going. That interrupts the flow of your movements, and your thoughts. Make it easy on yourself. You should always be able to simply breeze through when you are about your activities. That way you will always be able to maintain your focus upon what you need to be doing, instead of habitually having to stop & deal with obstacles.

If you happen to be a clutterer like me, then organize your clutter by catagories : one type of clutter goes into one out of the way spot, and another type of clutter goes in another out of the way spot. Then, the clutter will not only be out of your way, but should you ever decide to clean up your clutter (GASP!), it will be real easy to deal with, since it will already be somewhat organized.

When you make you home easy to deal with, then it is bound to become warm.

Hmm. My family's apartment has white and off-white walls, but come to think of it, we have lots of mellow, earthy-brown stuff and stuff made of wood. We have plants, too, and the cream-colored curtains look nice and glowing when it's sunny like it is today.

I suppose our apartment is physically cold, but emotionally warm; there's not a lot of tension in our family. And the physical coldness is caused solely because we keep leaving at least one door open, because the weather tends to be warm in CA.
