Our homes should be a sanctuary where we can relax, recharge, and feel totally at ease. However, pure relaxation can be difficult if you are one of the many who live with sensory sensitivities.
Fortunately, at Stacy’s Sensory Solutions, we understand that surrounding yourself with comforting sensory items is a great way to create a cozier home environment, and we’re here to bring them to you!
The right pressure items, textures, scents, sounds, and more can help melt away stress when you walk through the door. Here’s a closer look at some sensory items that will make your home feel like a warm hug!
Soft Textures for Lounging
Texture can be a thing that makes or breaks your comfort levels. However, at Stacy’s Sensory Solutions, we know that at the end of the day, nothing beats curling up with something delightfully soft when you want to relax. From blankets to cute stuffies that we offer at our online and Plano stores, Stacy’s has several textured items that bring your comfort home.
Weighted Throw Blankets
Throw blankets are something we regularly incorporate in the sensory packs we create for our customers. A weighted throw blanket lets you get comfortable while snuggling into a warm embrace in your favorite spot in your home.
Weighted blankets are essential for any home. We create our in-house and ensure they are soft with a minky fabric and come stocked with virgin glass microbeads that ensure equal weight distribution for a calming, pressurized experience. The ultimate feeling of Hygge.
Soothing Scents for Relaxation
Fill your home with calming scents to help you decompress. Scents can be powerful triggers that put our minds at ease.
Set the mood with candles or essential oils in relaxing fragrances like lavender, eucalyptus, jasmine, and sandalwood. Place them in your bedroom, bathroom, and living spaces so tranquil aromas surround you and bring on the comfort.
Use essential oil diffusers to continuously scent your air. Diffusers gradually release calming fragrances to establish a soothing ambiance. They’re great to have in an office or bedroom.
Potpourri
Although potpourri isn’t something we offer at Stacy’s, we’d be remiss to not mention it. To add to the calm in your home, simmer a potpourri mix on the stove or use bowls of dried potpourri around your home. The floral and spice mixed scents will waft through the house, promoting relaxation.
White Noise Machine
A white noise machine is something we like to include in the sensory rooms we create for homeowners and organizations. These machines create a gentle static or fan sound that blocks out disruptive noises so you can unwind. Have one on your nightstand to promote better sleep.
Nature Sounds
Listen to recordings of nature like ocean waves, rainfall, or forest sounds. These calm the mind and body and connect us to the peaceful rhythms of nature. Play them while lounging or sleeping.
Textural Touches for Your Hands
Engage your sense of touch with tactile home accents. Handling comforting textures reduces stress.
Stress balls are an excellent way to unwind after a hard day. Keep squishy stress balls around your house and give them a squeeze when you need to decompress. Their yielding, moldable texture is very calming and a big reason why they are used in anger management stress relief strategies.
Fidget toys like water beads, sensory rings, or wire puzzles give your hands nice textures to interact with. Fiddling with them helps melt away the day’s stresses and helps you focus on getting yourself in a calm sense of mind when settling into your home.
