After all is said and done, we all must find our way home.
You need a home. It’s a basic human need; it’s something everyone deserves, and in a utopian world, it is what everyone would have. In reality, many people consider it a challenge to own a home and have even given up on their dreams of owning one. While rentals can be a good place to live for the time being, it is clear that having a secure, supportive home environment that is crucial for both adults and children can only be properly designed by a homeowner himself. A home should be a place of safety, love, and stability, and this comes with careful planning by the homeowners. This Article looks at the essential things only a home can give humans.
The Needs for a Healthy Development
There are four essential needs for healthy development, and these needs can only be realized in a supportive home environment. These four needs are:
1) A sense of trust and safety
2) A feeling of being understood and valued
3) A sense of competence and mastery over one’s world
4) Connections to other people
If a person doesn’t feel safe, understood, competent and connected, it can lead to problems in their lives and how they handle things. That’s why it’s so important for people, especially children, to grow up in a homey environment that helps them develop mentally in the right
way.
A Secure and Supportive Home Environment
Statistically, a home environment is the most supportive and secure. The home provides a sense of stability and helps people build trust and feel comfortable. This is why humans and animals need homes to live properly and grow families. Every living thing understands the importance of a home — even trees. There are a few basic things that make home the most important place for any human or animal:
- The home is a safe place. It is a shelter and a haven rolled into one. That is why homes have walls that we believe are sturdy enough to protect from outside threats from time immemorial. Psychologically, a home is where we relax and loosen up our guard, which helps our brains to recharge for whatever we have to do next.
- The home is a place of love and acceptance. Naturally, humans find the warmth, understanding and support their minds need at home. Home is where humans naturally keep the most emotionally important people so as to have them close and to be able to reach them with any problems or concerns they have.
- The home is a place of learning and growth. Everything starts from home. Most brilliant ideas and realizations are stumbled upon in our comfort zones. The psychological boost helps productivity. A study by Standford found when people worked from home, their productivity increased by 13%.
Control over your world
The world is vast. There are various people with various backgrounds and preferences. That means that most times, you wouldn’t have things going your way in the outside world. Your wants would clash with that of others, and you might have to compromise more than you want to. One place to create a safe and nurturing space where you truly control what happens is at home. You could fill your own home with things that make you feel comfortable, happy, and relaxed without question. You could also create a space in your home where you can relax and de-stress. This could be a dedicated room or corner where you can meditate, do yoga, or simply take some deep breaths.
You could create a supportive environment for your mental health in your own home by setting up some simple rules and boundaries. For example, you might decide to establish a “no phones at the dinner table” rule or designate certain areas of your home as “quiet zones.” Doing this sends a message to your brain that your home is truly your own place for relaxation and rejuvenation—a place where you can truly be yourself.
