Walls

Painting walls a light colour can open up a room and promote a bright and airy feel.  A well-placed mirror or painting can do wonders for a room too.

Computers, televisions and phones

Computers, televisions and phones are known to emit low levels of radiation, whilst various studies have shown that standby lights can cause disruption to sleep.  Make your bedroom a technology-free zone!

Air

It is a well-known fact that plants convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, offering a natural way to purify the air in your room. If excessive moisture is not kept in check, harmful mould can develop, particularly on window frames, so a dehumidifier or simply ensuring windows are opened regularly can help reduce this.  Fresh flowers are ideal for providing a non-synthetic fragrance to your bedroom.

Clean regularly

Regular cleaning helps to remove harmful bacteria and dust which can easily accumulate in the folds of curtains or on pillows, for example.

Flooring

In addition to light coloured walls, light wooden flooring lends itself to a clean, open feel whilst at the same time being easy to maintain and keep dust-free.

Furniture

When it comes to detoxing your bedroom, less really is more.  Furniture should ideally be limited to storage only.

Storage

One of the key bedroom detox ideas is to declutter.  A minimalistic approach is best in this regard.  There are a wide range of beds available, for example, which include under bed storage, providing an ideal way to store a range of items without the need for additional furniture.
