How to Create Sacred Space for Transformation
5 Simple Steps that Will Take You Far
Written by Olga Aura
Anytime you are going through a period of transition in your life it is important to create a safe place for yourself. In other words, a sacred space where maximum release and transformation is allowed. Here are five simple things you can do. Weather you do all five or just one does not matter. It is your intention to create a safe place of compassion for yourself that matters.
1. Light a candle(s). Or if a candle is not available, imagine a burning candle near you. The element of fire serves as a clearing agent for whatever toxic energy is being released. Think of forest fires that “eat up” the overgrowth and the toxins in the land. So will the candle flame (real or imaginary) mulch what you are releasing so it does not get reabsorbed into your body.
2. Visualize a dome of light around you. Whether you are sitting at your computer or relaxing in your favorite chair in front of the television, remember that you are not only the body and mind of a personality. Be present as a soul. Prepare the space around you by visualizing a dome of transparent light that surrounds you. This is your sacred space wherein the soul can arise to the surface of your personality. Invite your whole self to be present.
3. Breathe into the Belly. Your ability to release what is holding you back directly depends on your ability to EXHALE. Breathe into your belly. Relax the jaw. Exhale fully. For guidance follow Olga’s Transformational Breathing Meditation CD. It will allow for a maximum breakthrough.
4. Play soft music in the background. The busy mind is often running over what you must do tomorrow or who you forgot to call yesterday. And as crucial this function of the mind is for our mundane success, such ‘congested activity” maybe an inhibitor when it comes to releasing your fears and blocks. To create more “space between the thoughts” play soft melodic music in your car, at work, at home. It will create a state of FLOW in your mind, in your body and in your relationships.
5. Allow the child-like innocence forth. You can relax knowing you are within a safe space and that your inmost self – the child within- can come out. You are now better equipped to process your time of transition in life from a perspective of innocence, less concerned to “conquer disease, fix and get on with it”, and more willing to simply absorb the experience itself with trust that the most benevolent outcome is already available for you.
