The Bedroom Reset: Where Living Well Begins and Ends Each Day

Rest, relaxation, and deep sleep are crucial for peak performance. Because of this, the bedroom serves as far more than a sleeping space. It’s the foundation for daily renewal. This is where you truly reset and rejuvenate, a tranquil sanctuary from a day filled with connections, progress, and activity. Curating a calming space through the addition of some strategic design features creates a place where you can unwind and recharge. 

From your first breath upon waking to the quiet moments before sleep, your bedroom establishes the atmosphere for how you live, feel and explore each day. It is the environment that nurtures your well-being, simplifying a smooth transition between activity and rest. 

A Wellness-Focused Community 

Elevon, an intentionally designed master-planned community in Lavon, is dedicated to supporting wellness. Every amenity - from walking trails to shared spaces like a swimming complex, dog park, sports courts or fishing ponds- has been designed to help residents optimize their lives. 

This dedication to “wellness by design” starts and ends each day in one room.

A home's bedroom then becomes a charging portal, where the demands of the outside world fade away and one’s personal rhythm takes precedence. Thoughtful features like layered lighting, breathable materials, and a layout that encourages calm aren’t just aesthetic choices. They serve as everyday wellness tools, each with its own therapeutic significance. These elements help residents achieve deeper sleep, wake up feeling refreshed, and approach each day with intention and clarity. 

Let There be Calming Lighting 

Our eyes are the windows to our souls. The lighting we choose for our bedroom can offer relief from the strain of staring at screens and the excessive brightness of many workspaces.  Warm white light (2700K-3000K) is recommended for bedrooms for the soft, inviting glow it radiates, making it ideal for relaxation. Cool white light (4000K- 5000K) can be overly harsh and bright and therefore not conducive to bedroom settings. Lighting sets the tone or mood for a space. 

Interior designs of homes in Elevon also set a relaxing tone. For example, warm colors can evoke emotions like peace and coziness.

Sound Baths: Hearing is Relaxing 

Just as wrapping yourself in a favorite blanket can signal the body that it is time to relax, sound baths can do the same by transitioning from work to the tranquility of rest. By immersing yourself in a sound bath, it becomes easier to encourage your body to wind down. 

Resonant sounds like gongs, singing bowls, and chimes promote deep relaxation and inner stillness. This process guides you into a meditative state by focusing awareness on the present moment. Doing this lowers stress. While filling your sleeping space with gongs and singing bowls may add to the overall soothing aesthetic, YouTube videos like this one offer a variety of sound bath experiences. Find the frequency that works best for you. 

Air Purifiers Are Nothing to Sneeze At

Our respiratory system is the tempo at which we live our lives. Research indicates that deep, slow, cyclical breathing has profound and numerous benefits on our overall health. At no time is the rate of our breath and the quality of the air we breathe more important than when we sleep. For these reasons, many people are choosing to complement their bedrooms with air purifiers.

By reducing allergens like pollen, dust, and pet dander, these appliances improve air quality in a home, and they can greatly improve the atmosphere and ambiance of any space they occupy. A cleaner atmosphere can lead to a more comfortable breathing environment, easing symptoms like sneezing, coughing, or chronic headaches. These factors improve the quality of sleep for everyone, but they are particularly beneficial for those with allergies. Improving the air we breathe while asleep reenergizes us, preparing us to be at our best.

Building a Bedroom Sanctuary 

A bedroom sanctuary is a space designed for efficiency and luxury. The bedroom should be decluttered and organized. By using creative storage solutions, we can cultivate a space free of unnecessary distractions, while keeping essential items within reach. Many are choosing to allow only a minimum of technology in the bedroom, keeping TVs, phones, and computers in a separate area.

Accenting your sanctuary space is the fun part! Painting is a quick way to create a calming atmosphere with a personalized touch. Choose a palette that speaks to you but consider muted tones. Pick soft ambient lighting and dimmers to control the intensity. Select essential oil diffusers or candles with relaxing scents such as lavender or chamomile. 

Incorporating natural elements is enormously beneficial. Interior designers suggest using materials such as wood and cotton in your décor and adding to the space with plants and greenery. Each day is an opportunity to cultivate your sanctuary like you might a bonsai tree. A bedroom sanctuary will help to unlock your full potential.

Self-Care Shapes Today's Living Spaces 

The thoughtful design residents put into their bedroom sanctuary will be complimented by an equal measure contemplative design and long-term vision at Elevon.

By creating and offering residents beautiful spaces, both blue and green, the Elevon community seeks to normalize an active, healthy lifestyle.
