A sacred space can be something as simple as a single rose in a vase or a spiritual icon. It could be a vortex of energy on this earth, like you find in the Sedona area of Arizona. Sometimes it is a moment in time when you feel that wonderful shiver up your spine when your body, mind and spirit are in alignment with your life purpose.

Is there a way you can create a sacred space? Here are a few tips in the “secret sauce” to creating sacred spaces:

  • Clean the space of clutter and dirt
  • Gather some candles
  • Bring items from nature into the mix
  • Flowers are a bonus due to color, beauty and fragrance
  • Musical instruments for sound vibration – bells and singing bowls are especially wonderful
  • Have a special cloth you use – it could be a towel, scarf or material specially made for sacred events
  • Essential oils and aromatherapy
  • Pieces of the earth, like rocks, crystals, shells and fossils
  • Holy water
  • White sage
  • Lavender seeds, petals or wands
  • Now, bring them all together to create an altar
