"I do not understand
how anyone can live without some small
place of enchantment to turn to."
Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
Filled with gratitude, we turn inward with appreciation for the life we have in spite of obstacles. We no longer seek consolation on the outside, as we awaken to the 'knowing' deep within us. When we can visualize a safe haven to rest our weary bones, we will be stronger by doing so.
When we gently close our eyes, we can travel to places of comfort we have visited or imagined. As the creator of this special space, we can fill it with sounds of nature or exquisite art or endless shelves of books. The peaceful scenario, filled with enchantment waits to embrace us.
Designing a place of solitude is important for maintaining sanity and eliminating stress. When we feel we are in the presence of something greater than ourselves, we can rest and renew. Some are mesmerized by paint from the artist's pallet while others drift with music or stretch with yoga. Others may take pen to the page to unloosen the thread of an unwinding thriller. So pick up a magic wand and be escorted to an enchanted escape hatch!
