Four Simple Steps to Decorate Your Meditation Space

Our living spaces are constructed for us to eat, sleep, watch TV and shower, because no matter who we are or where we live, we all do these things. However, there are some of us who like to stop, breathe, clear some emotional gunk from our chakras and go inward through meditation.

I am not a design guru but I find there is something really special about setting aside a special space for this ritual. Here are some tips that helped me put together my space (check out the pic), I hope some of these tips inspire you to unleash your inner sacred space designer!

1.    Find a quiet, open space

This is straightforward but if you are going to take time to cultivate inner peace, then you want some outer peace. Where in your living space can you set up shop so you can meditate undisturbed?

2.    Buy flowers

When you sit and meditate, that’s a true act of self-love as you are taking time out of your busy day for you. Different flowers have many different meanings. In my view, flowers are a symbol of self-love and the power of the inner work that you are doing.

3.   Get symbols of peace and love that resonate with you

I am not a Buddhist but I have acquired Buddhas from people in my life that know I am a spiritual chick. They sit in my meditation space as a symbol of love from others.  You don’t have to decorate your space all in one day. Keep an open eye when out and about for symbols of peace and love that resonate with you and add to your space over time.

4.    Rock out your manifestation documents

You create your reality. It’s up to you to manifest the life you want for yourself. Power up your manifestation muscle by writing down what you are working towards manifesting in your life (relationships, financial, etc...). For example:

“I look forward to having a job which aligns with my purpose."

"I look forward to finding a partner with the self-awareness and perseverance to grow spiritually."

Keep your manifestation docs in your sacred  space and after meditating, take a few moments to read your manifestation docs  and reinforce your intentions to the Universe. Remember energy flows where attention goes!

I hope these tips helped get your ideas flowing about setting up a meditation space with your personal stamp on it! Send some pics on what you did with your space!
