The light
The Zen -style bedroomsideally, they are designed so that among as much light as possible, hence they have large mats and large windows, the same as very wide doors. However, if you are redocoured and you cannot do anything with the original structure of your bedroom, the light entry can be resolved after issues.
The first thing you already have, which is your base in a palette of neutral colors; The second would be to move on to the lighting area, that is, windows and lamps. The windows can be covered with blinds that allow you a complete opening to the light, very thin gauze curtains that do not block the sun's rays, or you can leave them discovered, which is even better, although privacy issues come into question. If this is the case, you can solve it with thin curtains and clear tones and keep them open until the sun is hidden.
As for lampsideally, within your room you decide for daylight lamps in which you can control the intensity, and that there are no more than two, the central lighting and the lighting next to your bed. If possible, the dressing table and space in which you prepare to start the day and in which you need a lot of light, it must be outside your bedroom.

The decoration
The decoration of a Zen -style room It must be the closest to minimalism. One of the reasons why our space causes us stress, anxiety and other mental and emotional alterations is that there are too many accumulated objects and colors without order or meaning, and they are objects that should not actually be in our room.
The first thing to eliminate is electronic objects, televisions, video game consoles, too sophisticated sound systems, cell phones and other devices. It is recommended that each electronic object that enters your room can leave as soon as you finish using it. Your bedroom must remain free, clean and clear so that your body and mind can feel relaxed.
Some pair of shelves, a night table, your bed and a simple bureau are enough so you can perform all your functions. The rest is left over.
A Zen style It is easy to achieve, the complicated thing is that you can get rid of all those unnecessary things and that perhaps, from here, you also start a change in your lifestyle.
