April 05 … Constructing a Sanctuary
Take a few moments this morning and draw the plans for your one-room personal Sanctuary. Let it contain all the things you would want to have in it to be completely at Peace … During the day, every hour, pause to envision how it would look and feel; how it would “re-charge your batteries” just by spending a few moments in such a place … Then this evening, set aside one hour of time to actually build such a “fortress of solitude”. If it’s warm enough outside, build it in your backyard. If not, use pillows from a sofa or a space in your closet. Use the “blueprint” that you drew up this morning and place or hang items there that symbolically represent everything in your plan … Hang out a while therein this evening — feeling completely at Peace, and letting this “fortress” be a source of empowerment for all future acts of Service for others.
