My husband is awesome but he does have one flaw, he rarely puts things back into their proper place. Instead I find piles of tools, receipts, socks, etc. lying all over the house. I have learned to deal with this but I did have to insist on one exception, my yoga room. My yoga room is my sacred space. I can keep it as clean as I like and he does not leave his stuff in there. Therefore, when I get stressed and I feel myself starting to get even more anxious because the house is a mess, I know that I can always head into MY room and it will always be clean and clutter free. I also have full rein to decorate and arrange the room as I like. Therefore, in this room, I am able to let my mind relax without the distraction of a messy space. It is truly a reflection of me and I am able to reconnect to my true self there.
So today, I invite you to designate a space in your home that is just for you. This can be as simple as a corner of your bedroom or even a full room like I did. Take the time to make this space a reflection of who you are at your very best. For me that meant simple, clean, with little clutter. Keep your space free of other distractions so that when you are out of sorts and need to return to your center, you can go to your space and reconnect to you.
My yoga room and personal refuge...
