Episode #42: Creating Sanctuary in the Home; How to Create a Space You Love


TITLE

Creating Sanctuary in the Home; How to Create a Space You Love

GUEST

Helen Joy Butler

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Helen Joy Butler is a Sanctuary Creator, Elemental Space Clearer and #HSP Warrior.  She talks about creating external sanctuary in our home, which helps to create internal sanctuary.  This helps to decrease stress and increase peace. It can also help us feel more grounded in our space. What do we want people to feel when they enter our home? Helen talks about ways to clear or shift stagnant energy in our home. She talks about small ways to make changes so we don’t feel overwhelmed, and the importance of being gentle with ourselves.
