RE: Balancing Peace and Chaos through built environment.

in Architecture+Design3 years ago

Greetings dear Sahiba @sahiba-rana. Residing in a bustling city like New Delhi absolutely contributes to stressful lifestyles due to the challenging realities of urban infrastructures. There are different ways to seek peace in a metropolis that typically occupies most of your daily routine. For some, it could be strolling in a public park, hanging out in a coffee shop, enjoying retail therapy in malls, and exposing yourself to a garden or any type of architecture in close proximity to nature. I'm glad you were able to capture serenity in Southern-style temples there, as with other sacred buildings that usually offer that heavenly ambiance.

However, are you aware that there's such a thing as good stress? This refers to the healthy type of pressure that aligns with your "Ikigai" or what we call "Flow". Regardless of how hectic your activities are, you can still experience the much-needed tranquility, giving you that comfort in life. In the end, no matter where you are situated, the right attitude towards people, events, and locations always makes a huge difference. Have a fruitful week ahead. Enjoy! 😊

Hey dear Erne @storiesoferne Ikigai is something new I learnt form you today. Thanks for teaching me and I absolutely resonate with you on the part of finding the peace around our space.
What is your go to place to find peace from some hectic schedule?
By the way thanks for your wonderful comment and have a beautiful day ahead.😊😊

Oh, that's amazing dear Sahiba. With your busy lifestyle, I'm absolutely certain that Ikigai will do wonders for your life. One of the best places I usually travel to in seeking peace is the beach. If it has white sand, even better! My exposure to blue skies, soothing waves, and the coastal atmosphere present in such locations relieves tension, calms down my worries, and eases pain. I'd do anything to be up close and personal with the sea.

What about you? What's your favorite go-to place to find serenity?

Wow! Beaches, I would love to visit ocean soon, Literally everyone around me have visited , Hope to go there soon.
As far as my place to find serenity is concerned, It nothing huge, just a street near my house , it's filled with trees around and mostly less crowded. I walk there sometimes to declutter.
Thank you dear Erne for your comment, Have a beautiful day.

Amazing! As simple as your preferred location appears, seeking peace within your own neighborhood is a huge possibility. Why not? Besides, it's surely convenient for you since it's just a stone's throw away. Happy weekend dear Sahiba! 😊
