Implement Some Of The Old Memories In The New Place

To make the place feel a bit more positive, a simple way to hit the ground running is to add little touchstones to the decor so that you can revisit your favourite memories. One idea would be to have a box of your old treasured possessions, and make this the first thing you unpack in a new property. This means you’re starting off on the right note, but you’re also making the transition a little easier for yourself.

Starting New Memories

And with a new start gives you the opportunity to make new memories. What have you wanted to do with a property that you’ve never been able to do before? It’s now time to shed off the shackles of your old life and begin again. And by starting new memories, and buying new implements to put in the home, whether it’s a change of style, or you just want to begin again with a new set of four walls, you can make the most of this.

A new house is a way to begin again, but a lot of people view it merely as a continuation of their old life. But instead, if you really want to begin again, you could wipe the slate clean, and make sure that you change, not just the style and not just the setup.
