class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;ve surely heard about cortisol: the famous stress hormone.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Work, social life, social media, family, etc.: there is a tendency for our lifestyle to end up contributing to segregating it excessively.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal here is not to demonize cortisol: this hormone is also responsible for waking us up in the morning and facing the day with energy.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the state of chronic stress, with the consequent permanent presence of cortisol in the blood, does constitute a problem.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And improving your space may not be the definitive solution to this problem, but every little bit helps.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neuroscience has shown us that there are interior designs that contribute to our mental calm, while other spaces produce just the opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n<div

promoting gentle air currents, have a positive effect on our concentration, memory, and mood.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to the rise of states of greater happiness, a well-optimized space at the neuroscientific level can even accelerate recovery from illness.<\/p>\n\n<figure style=\"padding-left:10px\" class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\" ><img
