How to curate your zen space at home
Imagine coming back from a stressful day at work only to find chaos in your home. That would be the perfect recipe to ruin your day, right? To avoid that consider creating a soothing space at home using zen decor. With the correct home decor recommendations, you can make your home a tranquil haven. Consider these tips.
Minimal designs
To begin, select a minimalist style for your meditation place and embrace the elegance of simplicity. Remove all extraneous objects, and choose a place in your room with minimal clutter and simple floor surfaces. Select items of decor and furniture that exude a subtle elegance. Your mind will be able to organize itself better in a clean environment, which also promotes relaxation and concentration.
Enable natural light
It can be relaxing to have sunlight streaming in or a mild breeze tousling your hair while you are relaxing or meditating. Make an effort to create your zen area near a window. Place your furniture and accessories in a way that does not hinder natural light from entering the space. Avoid thick, light-blocking drapes or blinds. Choose sheer or light-colored window accessories instead.
Add plants and flowers
Plants and flowers can bring the beauty of nature indoors to help you achieve zen. Indoor plants energize the space, give a touch of greenery, and purify the air. Start by selecting low-maintenance plants like peace lilies, snake plants, or succulents. Add fresh flowers gradually so that they fill the room with their natural scent, energizing your thoughts and encouraging creativity and renewal.
Use natural colors
The use of color can significantly affect the mood and feel of the space. Bright, flashy colors undermine the calming impact of zen décor. Being surrounded by natural hues will help you feel more balanced. Think neutrals and mellow earthy tones. It will help you feel more at ease inside if you paint your walls white, beige, sage green, or light brown.
Make it cozy
In the area where you meditate, you should feel most relaxed. Cross-legged sitting isn't always as comfortable as you may expect. By arranging plush pillows, cushions, and blankets in your room, you can give yourself a comfortable sitting. Add a diffuser and your favorite essential oil to your meditation space to make the area feel cozier, and create a more peaceful atmosphere.
