Many who choose to dedicate a space for meditation or ritual create their own area in which to customize for this purpose; a 'meditation station' or altar area. A cleared out space where you can be comfortable and relaxed to center yourself is a great gift. Often times you can incorporate what some call an altar with personal photos, photos of family, friend & gurus, fresh flowers, statues of Gods or deities, and anything that gives you peace and inspiration. A cushion, stool or chair for which to sit on is often used.

​This space is never necessary, but if you want to have that personal sanctuary then create it! It should reflect who you are and what feeds your soul. I love having my own space where I know I can feel relaxed, inspired and allow myself to be free from the outside world. If you choose to not to create a space then maybe your favorite designate spot in the house or your favorite spot under a tree in the park nearby. You'll find that if you create a space for tranquility, the moment you settle in the relaxation begins. Nurture your mind, body & spirit. Namaste.
