Align & Awaken: A Nook for Daily Practice
Hello cyber friend — I’m Aleika, an interior designer who, in her free time, loves creating mood boards filled with inspiration and clickable links to help you shop, style, and DIY with ease.
Do you have a small space you want to turn into a Yoga Nook? Perfect — let’s get started!
Begin by lime washing the whole nook or at least the wall you’ll be facing during your yoga or meditation practice. This will give your space a natural Japandi-inspired vibe and add gentle texture to rest your gaze on.
To define the area and make it cozier, lay down a jute rug — it’s natural, durable, and easy to clean. I picked an extra thick yoga mat for added comfort, paired with a foldable Japanese-style floor chair that’s perfect for meditating in comfort.
The lighting you see in the image features a marble wall sconce, which I highly recommend for creating soft, warm ambiance. Finally, to carve out a little privacy, add a bamboo room divider — beautiful and practical.
