#149 - Creating a Bedroom Sanctuary: Here May Ye Rest A While
There is nothing more pleasing to the soul than wandering into a space that makes you feel protected, present, and at peace. Many elements involved in the creation of a comfortable bedroom sanctuary have been covered on the podcast. Now, we work to synthesize them all into your Zen den masterpiece. In this episode we will:
- Think about how room color choices affect relaxation and sleep
- Design the lighting that will best support our sanctuary's mission
- Consider how decorations can work to sooth or distract from the goal of rest
- Evaluate the role of air filters in our room design
- Look at materials on the floors and walls in terms of sound dampening
- Define 'biophilic design' and explore how it will shape the direction of the room
- Embrace organic and natural bedding materials instead of synthetics
- Remove clutter from the space and thoughtfully consider the pros and cons of electronics
- Create a "travel version" of our room choices when possible
