Whether your sanctuary is your home or your office, determine what makes you happy and then choose furniture, art, wall colors, books, and pictures of people who inspire you. Perhaps it’s a settee you found in a vintage shop that lifts your spirits. Or your grandmother’s drop-leaf claw-foot table that she left you in her will with a note taped to it explaining she knew how much you always loved it. Items with meaning should find a place in the interiors where you live and work precisely because they hold special memories and significance for you. Like everything in the universe, those well-loved pieces are permeated with subtle joyful energy from the people who’ve loved you and also used and loved those pieces.
Think of a beloved relative who has passed away to whom you’d like to pay tribute. Perhaps you have an old framed photo. If not, find one you like and frame it. Light a white sage smudge stick to clear the energy in the area where the picture will hang. Admire the picture when it’s hung. Offer words of welcome and ask that ancestor to bless you and your space.
