Day 2 - 40 Day Sadhana

Welcome to day #2. How was your meditation yesterday? One point meditation is a practice you can always come back to. During our 40 Day Sadhana I will teach a few types of meditation so you can begin to create your toolbox of practices. These tools will help you throughout the year. One thing that really helps me stay dedicated to my practice is creating a practice space. Today’s practice is to create and/or cleanse your space. Take 10 minutes to find a space that brings you comfort. What I always tell my students and clients is when creating a space, is to keep it simple. Creating a space is a way of honoring yourself by having a place that is solely yours.

New to building a sacred space:

Find a place in your home that feels special and comfortable. A space that you can dedicate to you and you're practice.

  1. First clean the energy of the space. You can do this by wiping down the space with a rag and cleaning product. To practice a deeper cleanse you can smudging with sage or palo santo, or spray a clearing spray like the Sacred Devotion Palo Santo and Rose mist. If you do not have these items, you can ring a bell or clap your hands to clear the space. You can say, “I remove any energy that is not mine, and energy that does not serve my highest and greatest good.”

  2. Begin to collect some items around your home that are significant to you. A candle, pictures of loved ones, crystals, shells, trinkets that have a personal meaning, inspirational or oracle cards, write a few quotes that resonate with your heart on a sticky note or piece of paper, anything that brings your personality into your space.

  3. If there is a specific color that calls to you, you can decorate in that color.

  4. After you have set up your sacred space, light a candle and honor the space with your presence.

  5. This space, you can come to for your daily practice, at times of feeling ungrounded or confused, this is a space of offering and devotion for you. Enjoy!

  6. If you have questions please reach out to me via email.

You already have a sacred space:

  1. Take sometime today to clean and freshen up your space.

  2. Remove your items from your space.

  3. Clean the dust and cleanse the energy of your space. You can do this by smudging with sage or palo santo, or spray a clearing spray like the Sacred Devotion Palo Santo and Rose mist. If you do not have these items, you can ring a bell or clap your hands to clear the space. You can say, “I remove any energy that is not mine, and energy that does not serve my highest and greatest good.”

  4. Place the items that feel most significant to you back into your space.

  5. Light your candle and honor the space with your presence.

Much love,
