A space for positive thoughts only!
We’ve heard lots of good things about meditation. Therefore, we’re not surprised if you finally decide to give it a go. It seems like the ultimate cure for almost everything: stress, anxiety, mood swings, insomnia, depression. We can sit here all day to count the perks. But rather than hearing about it, we bet you’re more interested in the ways of executing it. Rest assured, no tools are required, all that is needed is a space dedicated to healing the mind and recharging the soul. Whenever you’re ready to embark on this spiritual journey, here are four tips to create the meditation room that’ll make you go namaste.
1. Personalize The Space
Meditation is all about reaching a zen state where the mind is free and muscles are relaxed. When you’re so used to the fast pace of life, this part can be difficult. To quickly jump into that headspace, include some of your personal touches like your favorite fragrance or object. Make sure that they advocate peace and serenity. We know for one, Favori has a green scented diffuser that instantly transports you to the countryside.
2. Make It Dim Or Bright
There are two ways to crafting a meditation corner, and everything boils down to your preference. It’s either you make it light and bright or dim and cozy. If you’re unsure, you may want to settle for a room that can do both. Preferably, someplace with windows where you’re allowed to control the intensity of the lighting. Keeping a few candles at hand is another useful tip. Besides delivering a soothing blend, the flickers can aid you in concentration.
3. Get Comfy
Even without proper training, we’ve all seen how they do it in movies. Back straight, crossed-legged, hands relaxed on knee. Hence, for those accustomed to sitting in a chair, you better brace yourself for sudden gushes of ant crawling sensations. Though, some comfy, plush pillows can make things better. We’re totally digging this tie-dye one by At Home that is soft, fluffy, and extra pretty. Doesn’t this just make you look forward to your next session already?
4. Don’t Forget The Air
Picture this: you’re deep inside this rabbit hole, trying to detach yourself from your complex web of thoughts. Suddenly, this momentarily peace gets disrupted and you’re pulled back to reality again, all because of one powerful sneeze. One time is tolerable, but for those with an allergic nose, this poses a problem. Here’s when humidifiers come to the rescue with their sinus-clearing and moisturizing abilities. Xiaomi’s iteration is a good pick if you’re strict about having bacteria-free air, whilst Cranes’ model sits best with people with an eye for aesthetics. ICYMI, theirs feature color-changing lights!
