Do It For Your Soul!

Do It For Your Soul!

“Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only exists in the roots.”

Rumi


Finding symbolism in all our life experiences creates depth, meaning and opens our eyes to the beauty in everything.

When my husband and I purchased our home in 2014, it was a total fixer upper. The moment I entered it I looked at my husband and realtor and said, this is it! They looked at me in complete shock as it sure was, a total mess! I felt it in my soul that it was meant to be our home. The place where we will bring home our children from the hospital, celebrate birthdays and milestones...I just KNEW!

The renovations were such a challenge to say the least! But, sure enough the journey was worth it, as it ALWAYS is. The previous owners had patched many issues up as opposed to fixing the ROOT cause. Layered paint over wallpaper, threw flooring on top of old flooring and so much more!?

?

After moving in, I remember thinking about how symbolic the journey was. Just as we took walls down and rid the house of the old and damaged, we must do the same with ourselves.??So many of us go on with our lives without healing, without looking for the root cause of the pain in hopes that things will simply get better. Just like we had to do with our house to create a home, we have to do with ourselves to create a home for our soul.


Our homes are our sanctuaries just as our bodies are our temples. As we say hello to summer and enter a new season, I challenge you to sit with yourself, reflect and do some self- study. Pay attention to what comes up for you and focus on the healing. The change of seasons is always a perfect time to set new goals and make conscious change within ourselves.?


Sending so much love & light,

Sarah?

On a very similar journey with a century old house at the moment. This is exactly how I like to think about it as well.
