Create your own Magical Space

Hardly a week used to go by without at least one client asking me, “how do I protect myself from nasty people?”, “how do I protect my energy?” or “how can I feel better in my own room?”

Your body is a temple, your space your temenos. In Greek this means your sacred space. Jung adapted this term to mean “Magical Circle” where creativity, magic and even healing can take place. The ‘magic circle’ became co-opted into the practices of various modalities, as it already was widely used in Wicca for thousands of years before.

How do we create our own magical space? This is our own space where we are free to be who we are and explore deeply of who that person might be? It is imperative that with the bustle and turmoil of modern life combined with the electronic dimension adding more layers of stress and chaos into our life, we create our own reset.

• Body:

*Detox chemically – watch what you eat and when

*Come from love in your thinking and choice making

• Space:

*Release smoke from smudge sticks into your environment for blessings and spiritual cleansing

*Space drilling – this is where you send white light (and Reiki symbols if you like) to each corner of your space as you meditate inside of it

*Crystals – Amethyst, Black Tourmaline and others help protect your space from negative energies.

• Emotional:

*Boundaries – acknowledge other people’s negative reality statements, victim playing, being aloof, and attempts at rescuing you – do not buy into their games!

*Challenge others’ values and perceptions when they do not align with yours. Accept them with compassion, putting yourself in their shoes to better understand their reality. Remain the author of your life journey.

• Spiritual:

*Love Myself unconditionally – affirmations that remind me that I am spirit having a human experience

*Boost your energy – saying: My energy is returned to me now gently with love, light, peace and harmony”, “I now give back energy I have borrowed from others gently with love, light, peace and harmony”
