The sacred space

There are two very important rejuvenation spaces in the home.

The bedroom primarily and the bathroom.

When you get up in the morning, your bathroom sets your mood for the day and is a place for cleansing, detoxification and preparation for the outside world.

When we prepare for bedtime it is a healing environment. We wash away the day and start the restorative process of bedtime and natural sleep.

May it’s time to clear out your bathroom and get rid of all those old dusty bottles. Perhaps you have lots of bottles that you’ve not used for years. It feels good to clear and organise all the stuff you do use which makes you feel good.

Once you have cleared the space, do something to make the bathroom feel more nourishing. Perhaps you could add candles, essential oils, flowers or change the lighting. Maybe you could treat yourself to a new cupboard where you can better organise better the things you use.

Adding a small statue or a new picture that gives the bathroom a sense of being part of your temple of rejuvenation can make a huge difference to your bathroom experience!

Your bedroom is another space that needs attention

A cluttered bedroom with stuff under your bed gathering dust will not be conducive to natural sleep. A bedroom is certainly no place for a computer or a television. If you have either in your bedroom, remove them!

The bedroom is a place for sleep and sex only!

Ideally your bedroom should be airy, but not cold and should make your heart sing as soon as you enter.

You should have a sensation of being pampered, soothed and rejuvenated. A place where you immediately feel like the stresses and strains of the day fall away, and you feel safe, protected and uplifted. Your daily self care is intrinsically linked with your environment and your bedroom should become the inner sanctum of your healing sanctuary.
