The new year comes as a wave of optimism for many. Ambitious resolutions are made, social

media is flooded with ‘new year, new me’ posts and, within weeks, resolutions are broken. But

the thought was there, and the blues were avoided.

On the other hand, there are countless others who are struck by a chilly sadness that

accompanies the start of a new year. As we’re approaching, not only a new year, but a new

decade, the January blues of 2020 may be correspondingly bigger. Store That is here with

some solutions, offered to you in good time so you can prepare yourself for the approaching

new year!

Treat yourself

Although Christmas will have whizzed past in the usual blur of twinkling lights and delicious

food, that’s no reason not to treat yourself. There’s a fair chance you’ll have some Christmas

cash to splash, or perhaps a shoddy gift to exchange, so start the new year off by buying

yourself something nice.

Of course, it’s inadvisable to rely on material goods to treat your January blues - you could treat

yourself to a fancy meal, or even a little holiday to escape the cold. However, if you do have a

hankering for material goods, we’ve always got storage containers for rent here with your name

on. Who knows… you could even treat yourself to a storage unit!

Try something new

Although it can be scary, and sometimes a little overwhelming, exploring a constant stream of

fresh activities is often the best cure for the blues. It’s exciting, keeps your mind active, and you

might even find a new hobby.

There’s no reason for the activities to be too extreme either; skydiving and bungee jumping are

both available to you, but so is cross-stitching, juggling and water colour painting. Just follow

your heart and give something a try.

Also, if your new found hobby requires tools or items that take up a lot of room, why not

consider renting a space for them with Store That?

Tidy room; tidy mind

Although this last tip may not be as enticing as the others, it’s still extremely valid. A buildup of

clutter can get anyone down, and it can be hard to identify this as the cause of our blues. A

messy home can stifle our creativity and cause a great deal of unnecessary stress. The worst

part of it is that many of those oppressed by clutter have seemingly no choice but to live with it,

as they don’t have the space to tidy it away.

As it turns out, there is an affordable solution to this common problem, and it comes in the form

of a storage unit! Declutter your decade with the help of Store That East London and feel

refreshed in your new found space!
