How to create your sacred room or space
Use the steps below to begin building and creating a sacred place in your home:
1. Find a place that you can use
You can use a spare bedroom, an attic, part of a home office, or an unused space in your basement. If your space is smaller, you can use an area in your closet, or a dresser, a nightstand, plant stand or window sill. (I started with a dresser in the corner of a room).
2. Prepare the Area
You may need to clear some items - move them to another area, under your bed, another room, or donate them. But, the idea is to create a space somewhere in your surroundings that will become your special area.
3. Create an Intention
Write your intention down. You can use index cards or you can use the Intention Cards that are provided for free with any purchase from our online store.
4. Cleanse the Area
Cleanse the area with sage, palo santo, incense, or blessed water. You can sing or use bells, singing bowls, or chimes to also dispel any negative energy from the space or area.
5. Bless the Area
Bless the space and give thanks for it. You can use an anointing oil, such as Whole and Balanced, to bless the space and to add additional energy and positive intention during your blessing.
6. Begin to Use the Space
Incorporate using the space into your day. Regularly read affirmations or state mantras or prayers out loud as a part of your morning routine in the space, or use it as a calming space after you get off from work or put the children to bed. Write down important phrases or uplifting words of encouragement and place them on index cards or printouts. Place the cards or printouts the wall above, or around the table, or designated area. You can also use the Affirmations and Mantras printed index card that comes free with any online order.
7. Keep the Space Sacred
The more you use the area, the stronger it will become as the repetition alone will begin to make an impact on your subconscious mind. Make sure to treat and use the space based on the intention that you set. Do not allow this area to become a storage area for mail, clothes, or become cluttered. This is so that the space will remain a clear and designated area for you to connect with the Divine.
