Sanctuary
Step out of your mundane life for a minute and step into your own divinity. That's right, seal yourself off for a moment, in the private chambers of your own mind and heart. Enter your own temple. Imagine your own sanctuary. Put on something comfortable and sink into a plush throne or stretch out on a divan.
Take a deep breath, relax. Exhale the day and breathe in the essence of the goddess within you. Don't argue that you can't find her. She's always there. She's just forgotten in the daily routines and racket. Take a moment to turn off all those other people whom you serve and for a change of pace, serve yourself. Grant yourself a precious gift of time... for yourself.
Maybe you only have fifteen minutes. Take it! Don't cut yourself out of fifteen minutes of peace because "It's not enough." or "It's not worth it." You are worth it. The time is available. If you can accomplish miracles for your job or family in fifteen minutes, then you really are a supernatural being. How can anyone deny you fifteen minutes, even you?
Fifteen minutes every day, just for yourself, can change your life and help you live longer, healthier, happier. Even this brief respite, this momentary reconnection of mind, body, heart and soul, can heal you as well as stabilize you for your continued duty. Sometimes when taking this pause seems the least possible is exactly when you need it the most. You know this is true. Let the world do without you for fifteen minutes, so they can have more of you otherwise.
You may learn to extend your sanctuary time to thirty minutes and then an hour. Okay, maybe that's a stretch for you right now, but make it a goal. You will surely find that this precious time will make the rest of your day easier and more enjoyable, if for no other reason than to know that somewhere in the day awaits a block of time with your name on it.
