Zen Den IT’S ALL ABOUT THE
Forget about man caves and she sheds. To find your happy place, the Zen Den is where it’s at for good mental health… WHAT IS A ZEN DEN? A “Zen Den” is a popular concept that is centered on
creating a healthy, peaceful and meditative space within your home. A sanctuary that allows for a sense of calm and tranquility. It is a place that you can go to relax and connect to yourself while expanding your awareness of the present moment. Zen Dens are meant to build stronger mental health to then carry you through the chaos of daily life.
While on the surface, they may appear to be “hang
out” spaces – they have been known to affect health and wellness in a positive way. Stress, anxiety and depression not only leave you feeling fatigued but affect your physical health. Using a Zen Den space to meditate, practice yoga, or simply nap has been shown to drop stress and anxiety levels, aid in weight loss, and promote mental clarity and creativity.
