How To Create a Peaceful, Organized “Me Time” Space

Modern life is stressful! We’re all under so much pressure to perform well and be our best, and everyone needs a peaceful space to call their own. We all need to unwind and practice some mindfulness to stay healthy, but how can we do that when we don’t have a meditation space?

The Polished Jar knows a thing or two about biophilic spaces. We know the importance of having rooms designed to fit individual tastes and cultivate mindful energy. That’s why our artisans work to create the most amazing products that they can, so that you can enjoy your peaceful bathroom, organized kitchen, or whatever your individual “me time” space may be!

Join us as we help you reduce stress by creating a space where you can truly engage in some rest and relaxation.

Keep Tabs on Your Things

Everyone has a different definition of “messy”, but we can all agree that crossing that invisible line is stressful. That’s why so many people are investing in bathroom storage and mindful solutions to keeping track of their stuff.

Whether you’re planning on meditating in your bedroom, porch, or organized bathroom, the bottom line is that you need to keep things tidy. For fans of relaxing in the bath, The Polished Jar stocks a wide range of customizable plastic and glass dispensers, which can be used for soap, lotion, and more. Using these bottles is a great way to free up counter space, which gives you more space for whatever else you may need during your meditation room sessions. (And we also have plenty of tips on crafting a fantastic home spa without breaking the bank.)

Outside of your personal powdering room, you can keep tabs on your aromatherapy supplies with some of our refillable trigger sprayers. Like our dispensers, these durable products are available as fully customizable plastic containers and gorgeous glass spray bottles.

Give Everything a Spot

Another essential part of making sure your hideout is organized is to give everything a place. Mindful practices begin with thoughtful spaces, and even a simple clutter catcher is a fantastic way to prevent things from overflowing and clogging up a room’s energy.

For more traditional wellness practitioners, who enjoy the beauty of nature, The Polished Jar has a few different options. Our Charlotte Tray highlights the natural allure of raw, natural acacia wood. If you’re feeling more daring and want to really boost your available counter space, then try our Savannah Palm Pedestal, which offers plenty of room underneath to store smaller items. Fans of harder surfaces will love our marble Sardinia Tray.

If you like more modern approaches to wellness and mindfulness, don’t worry, we have you covered!. Our customizable Handmade Concrete Tray is a timeless way to express your individuality without the need for flashy patterns or shapes. Another option is our White Ceramic Tray. For fans of the darker things in life, there’s our Obsidian Ceramic Tray.

We also stock ring dishes, which are perfect for keeping your jewelry and pocket change safe while you unwind. Because you can never go wrong with this classic combo, we have a timeless White + Gold Ring Dish. If, however, you want something a little flashier, you should check out our Botanical Ring Dish.

Make Sure to Add Labels

As you design your peaceful space, you’ll want to make sure that everything in your freshly organized respite is clearly labeled. This way, you know where everything is, and you never need to spend more than a few seconds searching for what you need.

If you’ve picked up some of our fantastic dispensers, don’t forget to customize the labels. You can pick out pre-made designs, or you can create your own label. Our glass bottles are also compatible with our simple Silicone Bottle Sleeves, which provide more grip and protection. For a touch of class, check out our collection of Avery Ceramic Tags, which are available in both White + Black and White + Gold formats.

Don’t Forget the Little Details

As you work on your designated spot to reduce stress, you’ll want to think about the final touches. These will help bring together the room, and they can be as plain or as elaborate as you want.
