Transformative Tips for Creating a Sacred Space in Your Home

by Michelle Gruben

Do you have a sacred space at home that’s just for you? Somewhere you can go to take a break from the outside world. A tranquil area where you can breathe deep, sit in meditation, practice yoga, or just exist. A place that encourages quietness. If you don’t have a space like this in your home, we highly recommend creating one.

But how do you actually go about creating such a space? To help you get started, we reached out to wellness, meditation, yoga, and spirituality experts from San Francisco, CA to Markham, Ontario for their best tips on creating a sacred space at home. See what they have to say so you can start transforming a room or nook into your own personal sanctuary.

Begin by cleaning your space. Vacuum, wash the floors, and wipe down surfaces. Then you can move through the house, ringing a bell to break up any stagnant energies. By removing the old dusty energies lingering about in the corners, it sets the stage then to begin raising the vibration with whatever herbs and stones you chose. – Rhianna Mirabello, Owner, Visionary, and Creatrix at Dreaming Goddess

A sacred space starts with a simple seat. This can be a chair, cushion, yoga mat, or prayer rug. It must be clean, comfortable, used consistently, and preferably for no other purpose. The sacredness lies not in the fanciness of the space but in the intention, faith, and sincerity of the sitter. – Newark Center for Meditative Culture

Add items that bring a sense of serenity and connection to nature. Light some candles, or a fire in your fireplace. Add a water feature – trickling water soothes the mind. Beautiful geodes, crystals, and stones placed on a shelf or bowl to draw in the earth’s energy. Chimes by a window or attached to your door bring a whimsical sense of lightness to capturing the essence of air. If you have a bright room, adding plants will help to purify the air, along with the meditative and nurturing intent of supporting life. – Sacred Space

Choose an area that is well ventilated and quiet, where there is minimal foot traffic. You may wish to place sacred objects there such as candles, incense, flowers, precious stones, photographs of loved ones, etc. Most importantly, keep the space clean, pleasant, and clutter-free. – Yoga Chicago

Spend some time thinking about what makes a space sacred for you. The first and most important thing to do when setting a sacred space is to set your intentions. Think about what this space means to you and how you want to feel. Focus on creating a space that looks amazing and feels amazing – thinks soft colors and textures, big cushions and comfy throws, and a fluffy rug. You want to create a space that invites you to feel that something sacred can happen. For some energetic support, I always recommend taking four pieces of Ametrine, cleansing them in sunlight or moonlight, and then placing one in each corner of the room. This stone is a powerhouse combination of Citrine and Amethyst and is good for balance and serenity. – Clare The Life Healer

6 Engage all of the senses. Soft, comfy furniture for touch. An audio player preset with meditation music. Your favorite essential oils diffused in the room providing a comforting scent. Window darkness to keep out any extra light. – ReJuve

7 Burn sage or herbal mixes. Clear negativity from the space using white or blue sage or any herbal mix that contains lavender and/or cedar. Burning these banishes heavy energies from the space and creates a lighter, more relaxing atmosphere. You can use sage and/or lavender spray if you’d rather avoid smoke. – Diane Wing

8 Celebrate the cycle of the year with a simple seasonal altar. A favorite candle, statue, or crystal and some fresh greenery from outdoors is all that you need. A pretty serving tray – like vintage silver plate or bamboo – is a compact way to showcase your seasonal treasures. Your altar can be refreshed whenever you feel the seasons changing. – Michelle Gruben, Owner, Grove and Grotto

9 Connect with what is sacred to you. Whether that is the love of the Earth, a dream of peace on the planet, or a connection with an exemplar like Jesus, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., or Dolly Parton, you can let your love of what is sacred to you inspire the design of your special space. – Chris Maddox, The Wild Woman Project

10 To find your sacred space, spend some time in meditation and prayer. Ask that you may be shown a location in your home that will work as a sacred space. Then, commit to a time of day that you will go there; daily. By doing these two things, you will find that your inner peace and your ability to receive insights and inspirations will heighten and expand: creating more light and joy in your life. – Keira Poulsen

11 Let your sacred space elevate you. As you enter into this intentional space, let yourself elevate beyond the ordinary of the routine of our days. In this space, let yourself see the divine, the sacred, the incredible nature of this moment. We take life for granted, but in this intentional space, let yourself fully appreciate the sacredness of life. – Zen Habits

12 Transform an average room into a soothing sanctuary with an essential oil room spray. Use lavender essential oil to promote relaxation, lemon, and peppermint to create an uplifting mood or patchouli and rose to bring out your inner peace. To transform your space, fill a 4 oz. glass spray bottle with 4 tbsp. of water, 2 tbsp. of alcohol, and add 30 drops of your favorite essential oil. – Matrix Aromatherapy

13 Liven up your space with house plants. Trying to bring as much nature inside as possible is extremely therapeutic. – Essentia Aromatherapy

14 Add a yoga hammock set. With the influx of online tutorials and communities, creating a special relaxing space in your home and developing a home yoga practice is easier than ever. One way to elevate this space is to add a yoga hammock set. The yoga hammock can be an amazing tool for motivation, relaxation, and a helping hand in your yoga poses. Especially when you need some help to keep the motivation; seeing your dedicated space and your gorgeous hanging hammock every day will encourage you to practice, even if just for a few minutes a day. – Uplift Active

15 Light candles. Candles are known for their soothing properties and are an essential part of creating a relaxing space in any room – nothing compares to their soft, natural light and flickering glow. – Zen Den Candles

16 Let your sacred space find you. Wander around your home until you know where your space should be, and then sit there. Honor and thank your sacred space by inhabiting it with all your senses. Light incense or bring fragrance, light a candle, sing a little and say words of thanks, make a small food offering (and taste some), have a cup of tea, and then just sit down and trust your space to open the moment to your heart and mind. – Springs Mountain Sangha

17 Create a sacred space in your bathtub. Your bathtub can be so much more than a place to clean up. Think of it as more of a wellness destination, surrounding it with an enticing display of fragrant essential oils, luminous candles, and luxurious bath and body products that you can’t wait to put to use. – Inspired Interiors

18 Transform your living room into a sanctuary. We decided to leave our living room completely empty of furniture so that there’s enough room for our family of seven to do yoga & meditation together every day. Instead of furniture, our living room has lots of yoga mats, blocks, straps, massage tools, lacrosse balls for myofascial release, sound bowls, an essential oil diffuser, and crystals. – Nomads With A Purpose

19 Keep your space clutter-free. The size or location of the space doesn’t matter as long as it stays clutter-free. Too many items (including decoration) can have a negative effect on mental, physical, and spiritual health. – The Mindful MD Mom

20 Be intentional and have a clear vision of why you want to make this special happy place. Our homes are our sanctuaries, and often we lose perspective of the power we have in the creation process of our life experiences. It is important to remember that what we think expands. A space full of higher vibrations can help us maintain a positive outlook. A sacred home space can be achieved, for example, by using essential oil diffusers, plants as a way of detoxifying the air, music with a certain beat that can trigger feel-good emotions in us, or special lighting for a better mood, among many others. – Zen Living Realty

21 Look inside to find inspiration for your sacred space. A sacred space begins outside of time and place. It begins with intention; with your willed thinking; fired up by enthusiasm in your feeling life. Take your intention into your sleep for three days and see what inspirations arise. You don’t need an outside expert to tell you to do this or that. Trust that your higher-self will speak to you. – Reverse Ritual

22 Your space should be a reflection of things that give you inner peace. First, you must eliminate distractions or any attention to the outside world. Secondly, you want to include elements that are calming to your senses such as a comfortable cushion or chair, lightly scented incense or essential oil, Tibetan singing bowls or a bell, diffused lighting such as Himalayan salt lamps and Shoji or Mashrabiya screens to filter light. Third, bring in the elements of nature such as a chalice or fountain of water, live flowers or plants, quartz crystals or natural gemstones and candles. – Hearts Rise Up

23 Create a sacred space in a quiet corner. Bring steadiness to the mind and peacefulness to the conscious by finding a quiet corner in a sunlit room. Surround your space with a few meaningful tokens, a salt lamp for ambient lighting, and a stack of yoga blankets—which may serve as seating, props for yoga, or a warm wrap. Oh yes, and have a cat nearby. – Phebe Phillips Blog

24 Style the space with a focus on personal comfort, joy, and inspiration while stimulating your five senses. For example, a couch in a texture and color you love adorned with plush pillows and blissful blankets that you can wrap yourself in, making you feel supported and comforted each time you sit down; artwork that stirs positive emotion in you, serving as a reminder of your personal power and goals; warm lighting illuminating from a salt lamp or chandelier creating feelings of comfort and relaxation; and the sound of wind chimes outside a nearby window or soft music that soothes. All of these entice your senses, providing comfort, joy, and inspiration thus creating a sacred and welcoming space in your home. – Sugar Moon Bloom

A day in isolation

Day I don’t even know. It’s March 27. I should be packed and ready for a trip to Japan, but that was cancelled a month ago. We should have been there to see the cherry blossoms and stay in a cramped Osaka hotel room. Now, as the meme says, we will be going to “Los Kitchenos.”

My mornings start with a sense of reluctance. Sailor nudges my leg two minutes before my 7 am alarm. I used to wake up at 6, which, since the time change, is now 7, but I haven’t been to the office since then so I’ve been waking up at this time for…three weeks. Since March 5.

I feed the dogs, stumble in the wan light to pull open the blinds, flip on my Happy Light, and unfurl my thick purple yoga mat. I don’t bother with the toning yoga videos anymore. It’s all stretches and relaxation practices. I choose fifteen or twenty minutes, or thirty if I didn’t hit snooze and feel luxurious. I tilt my spine side to side in tabletop position, hands and feet against the ribbed mat. A catch releases somewhere in my back.

The first downward dog is always a balm for my calves. My right leg is a block of concrete, stiff and unmoving after an uncomfortable night. I often wake to find myself jammed against one shoulder, or with a hand tingling, or my hip screaming so loudly it pulls me from a dream.

I work through the flow and inevitably need a tissue when my body spurts up some gunk that went dormant overnight. Clarity returns to my sinuses. I feel a little less hatred for the day ahead. It almost feels like a normal day.

Since stocking up for the vacation-apocalypse, I now have a myriad of breakfast choices as compared to my typical instant oatmeal packet or protein shake. I could have protein waffles, banana bread, strawberries, string cheese, or cinnamon raisin bread that Robert made, wide and puffy.

I read the Bible while I eat. I used to read it on my YouVersion app, but that was creating a too-addictive don’t-break-the-chain habit (I got to 100 days this year), and the reading didn’t go deep. I switched to the mid-Psalms in my fifteen-year-old NASB college Bible and starting journaling my SOAP — another unfortunate acronym, but a helpful one I gleaned from our church’s online messages. Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer. It helps me identify what most speaks to me in a passage and consider it more closely. Today it’s Psalm 41.

I have fifteen minutes to write, perched on the edge of my dilapidated former office chair, which has lost two silver wheels and now sits disabled next to my desk. I realized I need a separate space, even if it’s just a seat two feet from my office chair, in which to write and thus separate myself from work.

I check newsletters in my email. The Denison Forum, the New York Times briefing, the Hustle, Briefingday, and, on Fridays, Girls’ Night In. I take a quick scroll through Instagram. Sometimes I watch a few stories from my favorite fashion bloggers. Then I lift the lid of my work MacBook Pro.

It’s time to work, but the thought of eight hours ahead of me is nearly paralyzing. I usually open Trello, where I’ve divided my tasks into To Do, Doing, and Done, but today I try Marie Forleo’s handwritten method of finishing the sentence “The one thing I will accomplish today is…” Today, it is sketching and mocking up a grid view for car sensors.

Then the Slack messages come in. I removed Slack from my phone at the advice of a coworker — “only I can give myself anxiety; Slack doesn’t have that privilege” — but the desktop app still manages to contribute to the low-grade anxiety that I will miss a critical conversation. I disabled the red badge of death. I turned on Do Not Disturb. Yet I still compulsively open Slack every ten minutes. Working remotely seems to make me eager to prove I’m around, available, not goofing off, and I don’t get into that deep zone of focus I need. But I try. I turn on an instrumental playlist from Spotify — it only recommends classical and movie scores for me now — and clump my old, cheap Amazon headphones over my ears.

My cat Nala weaves in between my keyboard and monitor. She flips onto her back and splays her legs out, falls asleep, and spreads ever so subtly until her back leg shoves my keyboard to the far edge of the desk, where I am now forced to sit diagonal to my computer. If I shut her out of the office, she scratches the door and makes pleading guttural noises, but in the office, she seems to know when I have a Zoom meeting and pretends to run an agility course. More than twice I’ve had to introduce her to coworkers when she hops between me and the webcam, leaving a dark tail in her wake.

We had catered lunch daily at the office. Now we fend for ourselves. This week I wrote down a semi-meal plan, and today I pull two red-topped plastic containers from the fridge to mix Thai ground beef with leftover Kraft Mac and cheese. I microwave it until it’s a strangely humid combination of cuisines.

I read the latest edition of Real Simple while I eat. The magazine came bagged in a plastic sheath, which I peeled off and threw away before washing my hands. I know the content was created months ago before this virus existed, and yet it’s still odd to read something so remarkably free of Covid-19. There is, however, a spring cleaning feature that explains the difference between sanitizing and disinfecting. That reminds me we only have a handful of Clorox wipes left. When we run out I’ve thought of dipping paper towels into the leftover solution at the bottom of the canister. I haven’t been super diligent about wiping down surfaces, but then again, we don’t go out much. I haven’t been outside in two days.

I return to my desk and mindlessly nibble on a Seattle Chocolate Double Distilled Mint bar. I eventually return to the kitchen to make DIY milk tea — cold Lipton with a splash of milk, mixed in my reusable boba tea tumbler. I didn’t think I could tolerate caffeine, but the iced tea has just enough to propel me through the rest of the workday. I don’t have tapioca to add but that’s okay. There are apparently sixty-eight carbs per serving of boba. I’m already eating too much. We stocked up on rice cakes, bananas, peanut butter, oatmeal, canned soup, dried pineapple, Pop-Tarts, and granola. Five-year-old me is constantly aware of this and always planning my next trip to the kitchen.

At three I join a few coworkers for what we call Zoom-ba, our virtual dance session, where I share a pre-made YouTube playlist and we dance in tiny thumbnail windows with each other. Our favorite instructor is a guy named Mao who wears bright colors and dances on a pier somewhere over tropical waters. It helps us feel less like we’re trapped in our small, dark homes.

After an hour more of work, I join another Zoom call to work out with friends who exercise with me almost daily now. Today we do legs. Last time we did abs, which, for some reason, left Laura with sore arms and me with achy glutes. We’re still figuring out how to do this. We place our laptops on chairs and the floor and follow an impossibly fit woman on YouTube.

Sweaty and tired, I tell my friends goodbye and pull up Instagram to watch the nightly fireside chat from my favorite finance author. It’s comforting to have this small slice of a predictable schedule: to know that every night, he’ll appear on my screen at 5:30. After this I don’t know what I’ll do. Maybe eat, or walk the dogs.

Robert makes mashed potatoes in the Instant Pot, and a thick, starchy scent wafts through the house. The Instagram Live ends and I join him for small plates of mashed potatoes with canned green beans. It feels sort of like a survival meal. We forgot to defrost any meat. I know I’ll be hungry later.

It’s raining so we don’t walk the dogs. Instead, we finish watching the first season of Altered Carbon, which I wasn’t sure I’d even want to finish watching. I don’t like how the story is ending. I also realize that with each show I watch, I’m wondering why the actors stand so close to each other. It hasn’t even been six months since all of this started. Will I think this way about every show from now on?

After the show ends Robert goes to his home office and I go to mine, where I open Skillshare for the next new routine I’ve established: learning Spanish. A coworker mentioned it could be a good way to pass the time, and since we have several Spanish-speaking friends and I love Zumba music, I’d like to learn it. I sit in front of my laptop and repeat words to the screen.

Some nights I make a tiny zine out of a sheet of printer paper. I think I’m putting too much on my plate. My creativity feels dried up, restless, and I end up on Twitter or some other internet rabbit hole. I don’t want to look back and see that every decision I made during this time was reactionary, but some days I don’t feel like I can muster much more than that.

Before brushing my teeth and washing my face, I go through my planner, make sure I did everything I wanted to do today. I realize how crude that sounds when, as some articles tell me, I shouldn’t be focused on output during a time of global crisis. But I feel listless without these goals. I need something to put me in motion, even if only for distraction.

Now I’m in bed. I have a stack of library books procured hours before the library shut down, but I don’t always read them. I keep one on my nightstand just in case. I’ll probably watch Robert play Animal Crossing on the Switch until I can’t keep my eyes open anymore. The music and repetitive actions are calming. Boring. Kind of like life used to be.

I fall asleep.

Hot Springs and Relaxation: All You Need to Know About Onsens in Japan

Fancy a little downtime with a relaxing soak in a natural hot spring on your Asia vacation? Onsens in Japan are the answer to your prayers, having been an integral part of traditional Japanese culture for centuries. Before you dive in, here’s the lowdown.

There’s a lot to tick off on any wish list or bucket list for Japan – the food: sake, the sushi, dark layers of flavorful ramen, yakitoris, and clean cut fresh sashimi; the scenery: volcanic peaks, rolling valleys, snow white landscapes, cherry blossom-lined streets, island hopping; the sprawl of shopping centers and districts, neon lit nightlife, the smooth sailing of the bullet trains and ancient temples, monasteries and cultural centers. The list may be endless, but onsens in Japan – traditional hot springs where the Japanese relax and bathe – are one of the cornerstones of culture and tradition. Here’s all you need to know about Japanese onsens.

What is an onsen?

There are thousands of onsens in Japan across 3000 onsen towns, with the majority situated in Hokkaido.

Onsens in Japan are a communal bathing and spa facility or, more frequently, traditional inns called a ryokan which are centered around naturally occurring hot springs, either indoor or outdoor. There are thousands of onsens in Japan across 3000 onsen towns! The majority of these however, are situated in the northernmost island of Hokkaido where the weather is predictably colder year round than anywhere else in the country. While ryokans traditionally offer communal bathing areas, some luxury ryokans also come with private facilities.

Onsens are known for a wealth of minerals – from sodium to calcium and chloride. Depending on the type of onsen you choose, a good soak is generally believed to cure a host of issues such as fatigue, muscle pains, digestive problems and bruises. No wonder then that the Japanese see these minerals as intrinsic to their vitality. They believe the skin absorbs the beneficial properties of the naturally heated spring water, which aids your general well-being.

The comfort zone

As a nation, the Japanese are incredibly respectful of tradition. Much like their tea ceremony or the precision with which they cultivate and comb their zen rock gardens, there is a protocol when it comes to onsens in Japan. However, if you’re feeling a tinge of anxiety about onsen etiquette, don’t. With some handy tips on how to maneuver onsen etiquette, all you need to think about are those soothing waters and the calm peaceful atmosphere, the quiet, and the time to yourself.

To begin with

The vast majority of onsens are segregated by sex; the blue symbol is for the men’s changing room and the red symbol is for women’s. Nice and easy. Inside each room you will find individual areas with baskets and lockers. Undress, lock away your personal towel and only bring through bath products such as shower gel or shampoo with you, as well as the small hand towel left for you.

In the washing area, find your free space, take a seat and use your bath products like you would at home. Afterwards, rinse it all down, leave your bath products here to collect later on the way back and it’s finally time to enter the actual baths with just your small hand towel.

Mind the heat

If there is more than one hot water pool, look for signs indicating the temperature of each. While Japanese people may be very used to nearly boiling hot water, a first time visitor may not, so don’t just slid right in. Look for the appropriate signs and failing that, test each pool out with your foot. Find what’s comfortable for you.

After the onsen

When you’ve had a good soak, it’s time to leave. On the way out shower yourself down in the washing room and collect any bath products you’d left behind. Pat yourself down and head on into the changing room where you can use own towel and get changed. It’s that simple and easy, and you will feel completely invigorated afterwards.

Etiquette of onsens in Japan

Some general rules to keep in mind:

Most onsens do not allow people with tattoos to enter. Japan has had a very mixed relationship with the tattooed national mafia, the Yakuza. This rule was a very simple and effective way to keep unwanted elements away from the peaceful onsen business. So it’s always best to inquire online before visiting.

Don’t splash. The water is roasting and no swimming or washing is allowed. Remember, this isn’t a public swimming pool.

Rinse out your hand towel at the end and put it in the basket or dispenser advertised.

Make sure to take all your personal belongings with you, as anything left behind will be binned.

When you are in the actual baths soaking, try to keep the hand towel out of water. A lot of Japanese people either fold it and put it atop their heads or fold it and use it as neck support to lean against the edge of the pool. Also, try to keep your head out of the water. It’s impolite and the minerals in the water will affect your eyes.

Onsen Facts: Did You Know?

Hot spring in Beppu

Onsengai: Any town or area made famous for its onsen is called an onsengai. There are onsen towns that literally function around that particular onsen by doing a number of things such as organizing sightseeing activities and providing local souvenir shops.

Private Onsen: Some onsens and onsen ryokans offer private onsen services. As long as you book ahead, you can avail of an onsen all to yourself.

Onsen Foods: Though bringing in food is forbidden when bathing, there are in fact foods made with onsen water and vapor. Onsen tamago for instance, is a half-boiled egg. Using a traditional method, people soak chicken eggs in the hot water and wait for the 20 minutes or so for it to cook! Then there’s onsen manju, which is a bun with a sweet bean paste inside – steamed with onsen vapour, it is softer and moister than your regular manju.

Dogo Onsen: Hidden away in a towering wooden castle located on the island of Shikoku, is one of the oldest onsens in Japan. Dogo onsen has been in use for over 3000 years and its guests have included a mix of commoners, emperors and, as some would say, maybe even Gods!

Beppu: Beppa is a city in Kyushu, a few hours east of Fukuoka, with the world’s largest amount of hot spring water discharge in Japan. Beppu may be a small town, but with around 2,300 onsen sources, is has become one of the top places in Japan to experience onsens.

Time Travel: For the Japanese, bathing is much more than a simple wash or pastime. They believe that the hot springs can clean not just the body but also the soul. Shinto, Japan’s indigenous belief, focuses on water purification and how it can unblock trapped energy. The hot spring water offers not just relaxation but restoration. Furthermore, it is believed to delay the aging process. So think about that the next time you are relaxing in an onsen; you are not only helping to repair and re-activate your cells, but the rejuvenating effect felt throughout your body is actually turning back the hands of time as well.

Onsens in Japan: Our Recommendations

Kowakien Tenyu, Hakone

This opulent hotel is all about harmony and nature with perfect viewpoints for that early morning sunrise. It boasts state of the art facilities and comes with its own infinity onsen. For those who would like to wander around outside in bliss, there’s the Hakone Open-Air Museum nearby and the incredible Okada Museum of Art Footbath Café.

Hakone Kowakien Tenyu

Gora Sounkaku, Hakone

This resplendent hotel has a warm and inviting environment. Beautifully crafted wooden interior design with mountain views. Offering a mix of private open-air baths, public rock pool hot springs, first class cuisine as well as a relaxation room replete with massage chairs, surely life couldn’t get any better.

Gora Sounkaku

Pax Yoshino, Hakone

Why not start your day in the traditional Japanese banquet room for breakfast and from there enjoy any number of indoor (shaded) and outdoor onsen. The facilities here are fantastic and if you want to take your relaxation to the next level you can play some ping-pong, check out the library, the karaoke rooms or have an in-room massage.

Pax Yoshino

Kurashiki Ryokan, Kurashiki

Further south from Tokyo and just east of Hiroshima, this hotel is a more modern take on the onsen (think concrete over wood). The restaurant here specialises in kaiseki dining (elegant multi-course meals) and has its own kura or storehouse. Located in the Bikan Historical District there’s history everywhere with quaint narrow streets and stunning canals outside for long walks at night.

Iwaso, Miyajima

Set in a cluster of islands in Hiroshima Bay, Iwaso is a rather extravagant destination with all the opulence one could ever wish for. Its bigger rooms even have their very own personal onsen. A three-minute walk outside will bring you into contact with the iconic world heritage Itsukushima Shrine, a photo opportunity if ever there was one.

Iwaso Miyajima

Iroha Ryokan, Miyajima

Big rooms, wide opens space and great sea views from this expansive onsen really do put pay to that sense of relaxation and other worldliness you will inhibit. Facial and full body treatments are available.

Iroha Ryokan Miyajima

Takayama Ouan

The natural baths are perched on a lofty high point offering views almost impossible to find anywhere else. There’s beautifully crafted Japanese design throughout with an option of western beds or rooms with traditional futons/tatami mats. To add a little romantic touch, there are cherry blossom trees outside on your doorstep.
