Improve your mood

You know that feeling when you just want to huddle in the sofa with a good book and some tea? Well, to set the tone for that ritual and to put yourself in the right mood, you can place a Himalayan salt lamp in your living room.

With the right lighting, your mood is bound to improve, and the lamp’s warm, soothing glow will help you relax for hours on end.

Purify your indoor air

The salt in these lamps is said to absorb moisture from your indoor air, but it also absorbs and retains dust and pollution, as well as cigarette smoke.

The heat from the lamp will then allow the “trapped” water to evaporate, but the harmful particles stay in the salt. With this simple process called hygroscopy, your lamp can improve your air quality.

Boost your sleep quality

Himalayan salt lamps have the potential to produce negative ions, which are, it turns out, positive for our sleep quality. If you keep the lamp in your room, but you find it difficult to fall asleep with any light on, you can turn them off at night, but let the ions set the stage for better sleep.

Another common respiratory issue so many kids and grownups have? Pesky allergies! Whether they are caused by pollen, dust, or anything in between, Himalayan lamps can keep your indoor air cleaner.

Add more natural light

Thanks to their gentle pink hue, these lamps are very useful especially during the colder months of the year when you have less sunlight exposure. Their warm light is gentle for your eyes, and it gives your home a beautiful look and feel. That can be helpful if you’re dealing with seasonal affective disorder or simply feeling blue when the weather isn’t all that sunny.

When combined with other healthy decorative measures, the Himalayan salt lamps can do wonders for your wellbeing. We often need some help in alleviating stress and improving the quality of our life. Sometimes, all it takes is minor changes in your environment such as adding a few lamps here and there. If you find yourself in need of more lifestyle changes, book a consultation with us and start 2022 with the right goals in mind!
