Let’s listen to Danelle Frisbie, as she explains what a peace tent is in Bamboo Family Magazine: “the small tent they had set up in one corner of their wood-floored, plant-covered, open-windowed den. It was here that the girls went to sit and relax, to get away from the rest of the busy house filled with guests, to daydream, or gaze out the tent opening, through the window, into the stars in the night sky above. This, they told me, was their “peace tent.” “

Yunus Emre, a great Sufi poet of the 13th century says in one of his poems that ‘those who are looking for a sense, the meaning are the one that drank the wine of Love.” What is the meaning of my life? Where I can start to search for? Anywhere but your heart! How I will speak and listen to my heart. Start with the intention, then show up with your intention in your heart and pray. Sacred space will help you to be consistent in this journey of starting to speaking to your heart, in the search of your inner truth.
And for creating your sacred space, no excuses. You can convert a chair of yours to your sacred space if you really want. Let tatjanas_world, inspire you.

14. Start small
If you want to create your sacred space but do not know-how and finding yourself delaying it all the time because of this excuse, sorry but no excuse anymore. Start small.

Creating your sacred space is a lot about taking care of yourself. It is about prioritizing creating a relationship with you. Close the TV, do not watch another Netflix series or a youtube video. Enough Facebook/Instagram for now.
Time to be with you. Time to ask yourself what you want and serving you and only you. If you do not ask yourself what you like to do, how you can really know?
