Do you need a “room of your own?”

Are you exhausted? 

Are you tired of doing things for so many others, at home, at work, in the community, that you’re ready to burst? 

Do you need a “room of your own?” 

A place for peace. 

A place that is only for you. 

You can rest, relax, reconnect with your heart and soul, calm your mind, dream, sleep or anything else that feels delightful to you! 

It’s like taking your own Eat, Pray, Love trip in one room. You may not eat as much pasta as Liz Gilbert did, but you’ll save a lot of money! 

We all need a room of our own. 

Even if you’re partnered and share your room with your lover, there are times you need solitude.

Today, I’m giving you full permission (not that you need it) to give yourself a room of your own. 

It might be a guest room or unused spot in your house. Just make sure you have privacy. Put beautiful things in it. Put comfortable soothing things in it. If there’s a bed, make sure the sheets and bedding feel delightful to you and are beautiful. 

If there isn’t an extra room you can use (I understand that entirely as I have always lived in relatively small homes, even when I had 4 kids running around!) then ask your partner to give you the space. It can be temporary. Even if it means sleeping on the couch a night or two, or put one of the kids on an air mattress so your partner can sleep in their bed. Get creative. You can find a way. You deserve to carve out a space for yourself. For your mental health. For your pleasure. Because you need… a room of your own!
