Your Sanctuary..

Well, I read something a while back about having a Sanctuary, a place where you go to to calm yourself. It can be anything (even inside your head), or a drawing or writing. Does anyone have something like this (the drawing or writing part)?

I have heard of this too in my studies on Old Witchcraft. Surely one of the older books have information on how to create one within your mind.

From what I've read, every soul has an entire continent to itself, inside itself, to roam. I'm looking out to access this :) So any resources would be good :D

i was giving a powerful book on it by a friend. This is a great way to centre yourself and also obtain your desires. As long as it means something to you then your sanctuary can be anything you like. i have mine in my head because that's where my creativity lies, but the drawing and writing parts sound great.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the name of the book your friend gave to you?

I think an inner sanctuary is ideal for meditation. A mental temple can also serve as a place to practice if there is a lack of physical space.

I built a temple in my head for this because of a lack of space. I decided to visualize building it brick by brick, this invests more energy into it and makes it more concrete and familiar. I can say it served as well as a physical one for rituals.

My Sanctuary is outside. Normally, I go to one of the many parks here. I love the trees. :) My husband and I just bought a house, so I'm eager to turn our backyard into a Sanctuary. ^_^
