How the Lounge Chair Became My Cozy Spot

We all need a cozy corner.

By Marielle SabbagPublished 5 years ago 3 min read

Sometimes we need an escape. And that escape requires you to get away from all the noise. We all need a cozy corner. It doesn’t matter where it is, or if it is in the house. For me, when I am having a bad day, I enjoy spending time on the lounge chair on my sun porch.

I have had this lounge chair for a while now. It has come in handy. When I moved in with my grandmother, this spot immediately became my favorite area to escape. I have had happy moments, and I have had sad moments. But mostly, happy.

I love spending time on my sun porch, especially in the summertime. With the sun rays coming in through the window, it’s therapeutic. It’s the best spot in the house to look out the window. My dog can agree to that, as she enjoys sitting on the lounge chair with me. Unfortunately, I cannot spend as much time on the sunporch in the winter because of the cold.

The lounge chair is comfortable. It’s nice to put your feet up and have a nice place to sit. The cushions are soft. I love the material it is made out of. Because of this chair, I wouldn’t have some of the creative ideas that I have thought of. And it’s the best place to sit down and read.

Layered with pillows, we designed the lounge chair to resemble royalty. Whenever I go out on the deck, it immediately lights up to me. The lounge chair is my go-to spot if I am ever having a bad day. I sit and breathe. Cozy corner is the time to get your thoughts together and see how you can make it all better.

As a freelance writer, I have the opportunity to make up any area in the house as my workspace. Leaning over in a seat for a few hours in a day is not good for the back. Not when you’re sitting in the lounge chair. Getting everything that I need, I take my laptop, put my feet up, and get to work. No, when I am sitting in the lounge chair, the pillows keep my spine aligned.

My cozy corner is where I go to take a mental health break. It’s important to keep in touch with your mental health. This chair made me realize how important it is to look after my mental health. I sat for an entire day drawing in this chair. It’s not a person, but I have so much to thank for this chair. For my creative ideas, mental health, and creating fond memories.

That’s why I wish that everyone could have a chair like this. Not everyone has a chair where they can put their feet up. Your body sinks into the cushions. I enjoy spending a few quiet moments a day out of the lounge chair.

I will always remember this one time when I was having a really bad day, and as soon as sat down on the lounge chair, I began to feel better. Sitting in this lounge chair is comforting. It feels like the arms of the chair are giving me a hug. That’s something that I never realized about my cozy corner.

The pandemic has not made life easy. Because it is very easy to transmit the disease through physical contact, it has taken hugs from us. I am thankful for my lounge chair for giving me a hug during a stressful time. No matter what, I will always be thankful to have the lounge chair as my cozy corner.
