Each person’s Zen area will end up quite different from one another. Maybe someone has a dedicated space and another may have only a corner of a room. Even closets can work to establish a sense of quiet and peace sometimes needed in a chaotic environment. You need to decide how it is going to be functional for you for your peace. Is it going to be a quiet carved out space for reading or perhaps yoga and meditation? Stay away from high-traffic areas of the home where it is more distracting and noisy. Choose Natural lighting or Floor lightening if you can. Try to make the furniture light and comfortable with soft curves, and when it comes to a lot of accessories remember that simplicity is better than a lot of clutter.
