Sometimes our lives are so busy that we treat our homes as if they were
impersonal places that we merely pass through. But we can make certain that
our homes truly feel like our sanctuaries by taking the time to tend to them
like gardens, which need care in order to offer us the beauty of their
blooms. When we take the time to treat our homes like beloved treasures, we
can shift their energy from being merely places to being wellsprings for the
replenishment of our energy.
Consider that homes are the outer reflections of those who live within. If we
feel that the current appearance clashes with how we'd like to see ourselves,
it can keep us from fully allowing our light to shine. Updating our homes to
reflect our inner landscape need not involve massive redecorating or a large
outlay of money. Small things can make a big difference, like simply moving
items so that we constantly gaze upon the things we love the most, liberating
the treasures we've hidden in our closets, using our best dishes and making
small repairs. Organizing and cleaning is a no-cost way to remove chaos from
our homes and introduce more calm. Lovingly rejuvenating our personal space
can become a creative project that increases the flow of good throughout all
aspects of our lives and increases our feeling of connection. We can give old
things new life by donating them to charity, opening space for newness to
enter. Removing stress from our homes can be as simple as putting our bills
into pretty boxes and choosing a specific time to deal with them, or removing
clutter so that we and our energy can move freely throughout our space.
Simplifying our space lets our imagination and energy roam free. We can
choose to prioritize our homes, making them the true heart of our family's
activities. Then we are free to focus on what really matters -- time to
ourselves, to share with loved ones, and to replenish our energy so that we
have more to share with each other and with the world.
