Creating a Sacred Space Using Essential Oils

Creating a Sacred Space Using Essential Oils

Creating a sacred space in our home is essential. The Danish call this Hygge, (Pronounced Hu Gah)They believe it is essential to have a sacred space in your home where you can go to feel safe, grounded & peaceful.

Life can bowl us over with all sorts of stresses, our mind takes all of this on board & we can quickly feel overwhelm. We owe it to our selves to recognise when we need some down time & then to take action in order to replenish our mind, body & soul.

So how can we do this? Well first of all find a space in your home where you would like to disappear to, this can be difficult if you live in a small flat/house, but there is always a tiny corner which you can claim as your own.

When my children still lived at home, it was more difficult as kids/ teenagers seem to have a knack of taking over just about everywhere. And so I got my self a meditation cushion, some tingsha bells & some essential oils.

I would often take a book & a cushion too, this was my chill out place, I would just lay back, put my feet up on the wall & read. Very often I would use this space to meditate.

But you may have a spare room where you can make really beautiful & just walk into when ever you feel you need time out. In a world full of complete overwhelm at the minute with all what is going on it's essential to recalibrate on a regular basis.

So what oils would I recommend for your sacred space?

I would definitely use a base note;

So perhaps;

• Ylang Ylang

• Sandalwood

• Frankincense

• Patchouli

And I would mix these with a floral middle note of say;

• Geranium

• Lavender

• Melissa

I would add up to 10 drops max of your choice of oils on top of a ceramic burner, add water to the oils, light a tealight candle & pop it underneath & just wait for the essentials to waft around the room.

All essential oils are;

• Antiviral

• Anti bacterial & so they are excellent for keeping your space free of toxins & building your immune system up.

Tell me, what do you do when you feel overwhelmed? Do you have a quiet space where you go to so you can catch your breath & clear the clutter out of your mind?

If we don't do this, then we are more at risk of getting burn out,if this happens then we become more at risk of seriously compromising our health.

This is one of the main reasons why people become ill, because they play down the levels of stress they're under until the body tells them otherwise.

Meditation, helps clear your mind so you can find tranquility,peace, calm & balance in your life again.
