[Shaz51]

I'm pretty lucky in my environmental wellness - I can afford to heat my place in winter and cool it in summer. I volunteer in my community, and during NAIDOC week I found out more about the traditional stories of the people whose Country I live on, one of which features a tree I have in my front yard, so that's a bit special. I'm looking forward to decorating my place a bit more, though, and hopefully the tomatoes I planted will grow soon. I'm also a bit lax when it comes to being organised, clean and tidy.

Long time no see

I believe being a regular somewhere is also nice

for me it is a local coffee shop @Shaz51

It's a bit of a daggy place but that's why I go there - nostalgia and attachment and they know who i am

Local coffee shop  is good @MDT 

@Faith-and-Hope  does this too

Very Good Prompts & Reminders @Shaz51 

Sensor Lights are a Must in my Suburb.

They definitely work as a Deterrent to Burglars.

Burglar made sure he disabled my Sensor Light 1st, my climbing up onto Wheelie Bin & Pulling Light Globe out of Socket - Before breaking into my Car (in Carport).

Because obviously he or she did not wish to be seen doing it.

The Sensor Lights are Very Bright, & they're triggered my any movement in front of them.

My neighbour has installed a Camera - So that anyone who comes to her house gets to be on "Candid Camera" (Video).

After my house was thoroughly Burgled (they took everything), years ago - I had a House Alarm installed.

Thankfully I have not been Burgled again, since then.

Yes some Colour & new Furnishings would help - My Living Space is rather Bleak, with nothing very appealing to the eye.

More Decluttering is in order too....

@MDT- I know.  What prompted the change?  It's been ages, hasn't it?  Have you been OK?  

Which state are you in, @MDT, and are you travelling well with lockdown, life, work and study?

Good to see you too.

For me, to have a productive environment for my mental health, I must have sound as the top priority before visual, touch, smell or taste.  I find my emotions connect with sound, such as music or birds, waves etc.  

When I was young, I used to run around in the local bush a lot, and I have fond memories of listening to the magpies sing, the crows yelling for mark or budgies chirping.  

I find visuals or smell at around the same level but i can tolerate a 70's kitchen if the music that gets my toes tapping is being played.  A lack of sound or industrial sounds like cars, machinery, planes or helicopters may not be in front of my brain, but I have recently discovered that this upsets my subconscious more and this leads to anxiety as my brain tries to cope with all these unnatural and disturbing sounds. 

I don't have many memories from being young around cooking so certain cooking smells don't put me at ease.. it definitely sound that centers me.
