Serenity and Ease in Bedroom Decorating

By David Artstone

Slate and Artstone - It is important that you create a serene and relaxing environment in your bedroom. This will both help you to sleep at night, and will also allow your mind to unwind and relax at the end of a hard days work.

On the one hand, the bedroom should be a peaceful place. Relaxing it should soothe you into sleep, and ease the burdens of the day away.

On the other hand, you don't want to sleep forever. The bedroom is where you wake up in the morning. It is a place where you want to feel vigorous, frisky, and powerful.

Finding a balance between these desires requires understanding your own nature, and creating a space which prompts you towards a better rounded nature.

If you are a deep and easy sleeper, able to snap into a nap and stay there for hours on end, you might want to put a little fire in your bedroom. It might invigorate you, and motivate you to get out and get active again.

You can do this using bright colors, and bold expressive art. Decorative items should be vigorous, patterns should be strong, and there should be contrast throughout.

But if you are an angry person, if you are easily agitated, if you have trouble sleeping, you may want to avoid anything that is too stimulating in this space. Instead, try to fill the room with soothing objects, and turn it into a relaxing escape from the worries of the day.

In this case, you will want to use soothing colors such as ocean blue and forest green. You should also consider peaceful decorative peaces, scenes of nature, and gentle patterns such as floral styles.

The ultimate nature of your bedroom should be a balance which helps you compensate for your own imbalances. In this way, the bedroom is a tool designed to help you live your life. - 30198
