Sanctuary

This month it is time to stop and take stock. You have come so far and achieved so much that even you can’t remember all that you’ve done.

While the weather is getting warmer and the sun is starting to shine more brightly we might be tricked into thinking that life needs to be go, go, go.

This is not the case, it is still so important for us to have our retreat time, for it is in this retreat time that we gain the closest connection to our soul.

It is in our reclusiveness that we are left to reside with the one who knows us the best – our heart.

I know sometimes it feels daunting, and some of you might think, “But what if I don’t like what I find in there?” – The truth is that that’s just your ego talking, because it’s afraid that you will fall in love with what’s inside and never want to listen to the fearful lies of your ego mind again.

This soul space within you is a sacred space.

It is yours and yours alone.

No-one else can enter there and no-one can take it from you.

For those reasons alone it should be loved and cherished.

This is your gift from the divine loving energy, a place that is within you no matter where on the humanly plane you reside.

It is your rock. It is your anchor. It’s how you know you are home.

Trust in this place deep within your being and know that by going there you will always be protected, guided and loved.

“Beloved one, while you walk the path of a long and fruitful path you will always need to rest your feet and soothe your soul. Come to us when you need that respite and allow us to unburden you of all that you carry. We are one and the same. So my wishing of joy for you is in fact a gift for us all. For we all breathe but with the one breath and we beat with the one heart. This loving world is yours and ours all at once. Take comfort in knowing that we will always strive for your joy.”

Take some time out this month to spring clean your sanctuary.

Give it the love and attention that it deserves, for this is your special place and one that you should always love retreating to.
