You might think its a stretch but hear me out!
I spent the weekend in a beautiful 5-star hotel and I have holidayed in many a mobile home and while on completely different ends of the spectrum in terms of experience, they do have certain things in common.
Everything is considered. Everything is intentional. The spaces are set up to work for you. Someone has considered what you will need and when you will need it.
What if I want to read on my own, what if I want to socialise with friends, what do i need to sleep well, how would I walk to the restaurant/pool/spa, what would I pass, where might I stop, what did I smell, touch, see as I moved through the spaces?
Nothing is accidental.
Great spaces aren't just about how they look, they're about how they support the people using them.
Most of us will never recreate a luxury hotel in our homes or live full time in a mobile and that's not the point.
The point is to pay attention, to be aware.
How does your space make you feel?
Does it support your routines?Does it help you rest?Connect? Focus? Recharge?
Or have you adapted your life around a space that isn't serving you?
The spaces around us influence our mood, wellbeing, productivity and relationships far more than we realise.
It was a great weekend and just what we needed to recharge but it also strengthened my belief in the power of your environment to make you feel better.
