How to Create A Sacred Space
How to Create a Sacred Space
A daily ritual to reconnect with your soul
By Marissa — Earth Journey Healing
Do you feel overwhelmed, constantly busy, or emotionally disconnected?
You’re not alone. Many of us are living in a state of constant “doing,” surrounded by others, juggling responsibilities, and rarely taking time to simply be with ourselves.
That’s why creating a sacred space in your home can be a powerful step toward healing and reconnection. It gives you a physical and energetic reminder that your peace, presence, and personal power matter even if it’s just for a few minutes a day.
Why Create a Sacred Space?
We often share our homes and our energy with partners, kids, friends, or housemates. While connection is beautiful, it can also blur the boundaries between who we are and what others need from us.
Having your own dedicated space reminds you to come back to yourself. It becomes a container for reflection, intuition, and restoration.
Your sacred space doesn’t need to be perfect or fancy. It just needs to feel authentically yours.
How to Create a Sacred Space
Step 1: Choose Your Space
Find a spot in your home that feels right it could be a quiet corner, a sunlit nook, or even a whole room. What matters most is that it’s a place where you can sit, breathe, and tune in without distraction.
Step 2: Clear the Energy
Cleanse the area with white sage, palo santo, or a space-clearing spray (I love Australian Bush Flower Essence sprays, available at most health food stores).
If you’re using sage, always place a bowl or shell underneath to catch any embers safely.
Once the space is cleared, bring in fresh energy with incense or your aromatherapy diffuser.
Step 3: Add What You Love
This is your sanctuary — fill it with items that make you feel calm, inspired, and connected. You might include:
• Crystals
• A journal or oracle deck
• Plants
• Candles or salt lamps
• A cozy cushion or throw
• Items from nature, like shells or feathers
Whatever you choose, let it be a reflection of you.
Step 4: Create a Healing Vibe
Set the tone with gentle sounds and soothing scents play soft music, nature sounds, or light a candle. Use essential oils like lavender, cedarwood, or frankincense to help ground and calm your energy.
Step 5: Use It Daily
This is the most important step: make it a practice.
Even 5 minutes a day spent in your sacred space can shift your energy. You might:
• Meditate
• Pull a card for the day
• Write in your journal
• Breathe deeply and simply rest
This small act of devotion reconnects you to your inner wisdom and recharges your nervous system. Over time, it becomes a sacred ritual a moment each day to come back to your truth.
You don’t need to escape to the mountains to feel spiritually connected your own home can become your temple.
Creating a sacred space is a gentle way to honour your energy, listen to your intuition, and come home to yourself again and again.
With love and intention,
