There are many different ways to get through confinement, depending on how our home is and how many of us live at home, the situation can change radically. A small family with a large house will not have great problems dividing spaces and that everyone can spend time alone with some privacy, but in large families, medium-sized houses, these days the bedroom becomes a private space where you can enjoy a little privacy.
Sharing the confinement with the family is fine, but considering that this is 24 hours seven days a week and that we are on our way to being like this for at least a month, many also we need some lonely time, whether it is to concentrate on work, to relax while exercising, to dedicate it to one of our hobbies or, simply, to do absolutely nothing for a few minutes a day, for all this the perfect place is the bedroom.
We live in a very delicate situation aware that many people are living in first person or very close to serious health problems, the worst undoubtedly, and another is having serious economic difficulties derived from the crisis associated with the situation, then there are those who have They have to work even more than usual because they are absolutely essential in this fight because of their profession and finally we are the ones who try to contribute our grain of sand with something as simple as staying home.
Within this group of people who, without being seriously affected by the Covid-19 crisis, do have to logically respect confinement, there are those who carry it reasonably well because they have already adapted to the situation and even see him positive aspects, such as enjoying things that went unnoticed in the hectic pace of everyday life, and those who wear it fatal although with resignation. For the latter, this reflection is about the importance of having a private space at home for each member of the family, at least for part of the day.
A refuge for reading
It’s great to make plans for when it all happens, but just as important or more important is trying to find options to enjoy, as much as possible, in the present. It may seem difficult, but it is essential occasionally disconnect from the news and reality that surrounds us to continue later with more force, a book can be the perfect tool to achieve this and in our bedroom we can create the ideal reading corner.

If there is room for an armchair, with a side table and a floor lamp, better than better; but if not, the bed itself with the nightstand can also serve us. Place the cushions and blankets well, it is they that will maximize comfort on the surface of your bed, make sure you have good lighting and let yourself be carried away by the story you are reading, mentally transport yourself to other places, get closer to your characters. .. We cannot travel with the body, but we can travel with the mind and reading greatly facilitates this evasion.
Your corner to exercise
There are families that exercise together, but there are also those who prefer to play sports, do yoga or pilates for example, a little privacy. They are activities that require some concentration and many times it is not easy to develop them in common spaces with more people doing other things around … Once again in the bedroom we can find the solution.

A few days ago we talked in Decoesfera about how to set up a gym at home, we may not have space for a very complete gym but a mat (or in the absence of a mat), a mirror and some small accessories They can help us move and break sedentary lifestyle without leaving the room.
A special place for your hobbies
Also these days we are picking up hobbies that we had abandoned or developing skills that we didn’t even know we had … Drawing, painting, writing, music, sewing or socks are some of them, we didn’t have time to dedicate to them but now yes. Although we would be very happy if we could continue with our lives without time for these hobbies, the reality is that now we have it and it is good to take advantage of it and for this we need a special place where we can spend time each day.

A side table with some storage module may be enough to mount a mini atelier inside the bedroom, it should be placed in a well-lit area, accessible but without hindering the other functions of the room and we can give you a special touch with dried flowers or candles, in general, with some detail of our liking that helps us to personalize that corner.
We name here just some examples of things we can do in the room alone to feel better, we can also spend time on beauty routines, watch a chapter of our favorite series or just relax without doing anything … This need to be alone with ourselves at home and the ideas on how to get it, coincide to a large extent with the proposals that IKEA made this week from the hand of Patri Psychologist in this regard.
