How can I make my bedroom feel zen?

To make your room feel zen you should first find three images to use as inspiration. Once you have an idea of how you want your room to feel the next step is to create a concept board.

Use a neutral color palette as the base with colors pulled from nature. These include ivory, beige, tan, taupe, and brown. Next add an accent color like green, blue, or rust for interest.

Texture, pattern, and mixed materials are also important design features. They’ll add dimension and interest to take your interior space to the next level.

When creating a zen bedroom things to include are soft textures, natural light fabrics, organic shapes, and clean lines. Eliminate clutter, excess, and electronic devices from your living space.

Layer in greenery, essential oils, candles, and fresh scents to create an environment that looks and smells fabulous. Crystals, beads, natural stones, pebbles, or terrariums with plants are awesome for creating a zen vibe.

What does zen room mean?

A zen room is a comfortable and relaxing environment free of distractions. It’s meant to be your go-to space to practice mindfulness and stillness.

Creating a sacred bedroom space will increase your productivity, lower your stress levels, and give you a restful night’s sleep. It’ll bring you joy in the morning, peace after a long day, and sweet dreams literally.

What are Zen colors?

Zen colors are neutral and earthy. Think beiges and browns with touches of greenery. White and black color schemes can be found in modern contemporary zen bedrooms.

The natural colors found in wood tones are popular in zen spaces for their warmth and organic element. These can include light to dark wood tones and everything in between.

What are the five elements of Zen?

The five elements of zen are earth, fire, water, wood, and metal. The goal is to add touches of each element to your bedroom for balance and flow.

For earth add things from nature such as plants, pebbles, and natural stones. Zen gardens and terrariums are awesome for this element.

Ideas for water elements include a fountain, fish bowl, or artwork. The art can feature a river, stream, or ocean scene.

A candle is great for adding the fire element to your bedroom design. If you have a fireplace that’s even better for creating a warm and cozy experience.

Wood can include furniture, decor, and wall art. If you have natural wood floors they’ll be an ideal representation of this element. It’ll add a sense of grounding and calm to your room.

The last element to include is metal which is super easy to add. Metal details can be found in lamps, decor, picture frames, furniture handles, and more! It can be shiny, matte, or polished. Colors include everything from silver to gold and copper.

When purchasing your pillow fill remember to size up 2″ for the proper fullness. Since the sage pillow cover is 20″x20″ your pillow fill should be 22″x22″.

Design Tip: Your pillow fill should be 2″ larger than your pillow cover for the proper fullness.
