Query: This piece will look at how a person’s environment (from lighting to clutter to access to green space) can affect mood and mental health with tips from experts on how to “hack” personal space to improve mental health. What I’m looking for is experts with a science/health/medical background with expertise or interest in various fields related to environment & mood.

I need “hacks” or “tips” to makeover your home/office/living spaces to boost mood. Tips could be on things like lighting, scents (which candles/scents are associated with improved mood), color schemes, organization, music choices, plants or windows to maximize the visibility of greenspace, etc. Along with the tip, I need commentary (you should be a verifiable expert) on why the tip works, and where appropriate, research that supports the tip. I also need a psychologist or neuropsychologist to discuss why the environment plays a role in mental health and how our senses and sensory inputs are connected to mood.

Requirements: Please see above
