Use
your senses to create a sacred home
Your home
is a shelter, a safe haven and a place to hang your hat. It is also a reflection
of your soul, of who you are and what you value. Your home should be a sanctuary
where you can feel nurtured and refreshed. Coco Chanel was fond of saying,
"An interior is the natural projection of the soul." Creating your own sacred
space in your home is as easy as using your five senses, sight, hearing,
touch, smell, and taste. Follow along as we tour your home and show you five
easy ways to begin creating your sacred home today.
What does your sacred home look
like? What do you see as you walk up to the front door of your home? Your
entryway is the important transition between the outside world and your home.
Paint your front door a welcoming color, place some flowering plants on your
front steps and hang prayer flags that flutter gently in the breeze. Now,
step over the threshold into the entryway to your home. Is it bright and
joyful? Is it inviting? If your entryway is dark or dingy try hanging brightly
colored artwork or mirrors to reflect light. Different colors can evoke different
feelings so consider using blue for relaxation, yellow for energy, red for
passion, and white for clarity. At a minimum, keep this area clean and free
of clutter.
What does your sacred home sound
like? Step inside, close the front door, stop and listen. Most people are
surprised to discover that the ambient sound level in their homes is quite
high. As you listen, consider what kinds of sounds you hear. Are they happy
sounds such as birds chirping or children playing? Is it the stressful noise
of traffic or neighbors? Is it the irritating noise of phones ringing? Your
living room is where the outside world bursts in through telephones, televisions,
radios and computers. As with any boisterous guest, don't let the din of
the world overstay its welcome. Create a retreat atmosphere by switching
off everything that makes noise. Don't leave the television on if no one
is watching and don't use it as background noise while you are busy
elsewhere.
What does your sacred home feel
like? Walk into your bedroom and run your hand across your bedspread and
pillow. Do they feel soft and inviting? Are they warm or sensuous? If you
have difficulty falling asleep, even little things such as the feel and texture
of sheets can have a big effect on how easily you doze off. You will spend
nearly one-third of your life asleep and the bedroom is your place to renew
at the beginning and relax at the end of each day. Make your bed using cool
cotton sheets during spring and autumn and crisp linen ones in summer for
a peaceful sleep. Cuddly flannel sheets and fluffy down comforters create
a cozy refuge in the wintertime. Have soft, fuzzy carpeting on the floor
or comfy slippers to coddle your bare feet and fluffy pillows to cuddle your
head.
What does your sacred home smell
like? Your bathroom is the perfect place to explore aromatherapy with bath
salts, candles, oils and soap. Quality and not quantity is what is important,
so shop for pure oils and essences and beeswax candles with a pure cotton
wick. Products containing pure oils and essences have stronger healing properties
than those made from chemicals. Research has shown that one of the fastest
ways to influence mood is through smell. Some aromatherapy scents to consider:
the heady bouquet of rose for romance, the soothing aroma of vanilla for
comfort, the delicate scents of lavender, geranium or rosemary for relaxation,
the fresh fragrances of orange or peppermint for energy.
What does your sacred home taste
like? Your kitchen is the place to celebrate life; to nourish and be nourished.
Honor your family heritage and create a dish similar to one your great-great
grandmother might have prepared. Are you stuck in a taste rut with not enough
zest in your food? Buy a new spice like cardamom or turmeric. Use all of
your taste buds - sweet, sour, bitter, salty - and taste textures such as
crunchy, creamy or chewy. Eat slowly and savor your food. Experiment by creating
ethnic dishes together with friends to nourish and sustain both your body
and your spirit.
You can easily transform your
house into a sanctuary for your spirit by using your five senses. When you
become aware of your surroundings and trust your instincts, you can turn
your home into a reflection of your soul.
