A Place of Invisible Grace

Think about your home. Where is your favorite space? Is it the bathtub, your bedroom, outside patio? Now that you have it in your mind – why is this sacred space so special to you?

I use a corner of my bedroom for my morning yoga and meditation practice. If I am lucky enough to be at the lake I use our outdoor deck. To create a feeling of invisible grace, I use a candle, a stick of incense, a flower, and a geode—all symbols of the sacred to me.

Learn how to use subtle yet powerful actions to create your own sacred space. What does your current space need to create privacy – a serene and un-interrupted refuge?

IDEAS TO GET YOU STARTED

– Use your intuition to choose the “sacred space” in your home. (Notice that feel-good sensation)
– Clear any clutter from your designated area.
– Collect a few things to place near you that bring comfort and represent beauty or a connection to something beyond this world- the flame of a candle, a flower, a photo.
– Set the intention as you create your space that it holds a quality of “sacredness.”
– Use this space (if possible) exclusively for your connection to the feeling of invisible grace.

Creating your sacred space is so important because, as author and mentor Denise Linn says in Space Clearing A-Z, “when we’re in a place that is filled with Sacred Space, we feel better. We find it easier to breathe, think, dream, and to have faith in ourselves. The space that we occupy has a profound effect on us. Understanding this and learning how to transform ordinary environments into Sacred Space enables us to become powerful healers of your own homes and those of others.”
