Do something different this Valentine’s Day, something very special for and with your beloved partner. What could you do to create an ‘out of this world’ love experience that would make your partner’s heart melt and feel more loved and cared for?
This is what you want to do:
Prepare YOUR Valentine’s experience by creating a Sacred Space that will enhance your romantic evening or an intentional lovemaking session, a sacred conversation you wish to have, a sensual massage, or a healing ritual.
Let’s take a closer look at what we mean by creating Sacred Space:
Sacred Space means transforming a room into a sanctuary. As she prepares for her special night, she senses what would take her partner “over the top.” How could you set a tone for the room that transports your partner to a different world? It is about much more than just decorating a room. It’s about the intention, about really taking the time to think about and care for her loved one. The amount of attention you give to the creation of the Sacred Space will show your loved one how much you care.
This “special treatment” will provide a spark that can last for days or weeks!
Here are some concrete steps on how to create that perfect Sacred Space:
- Choose a room
Where would you like your special date to go? The bedroom is always a good place, but maybe you’d like to use another room to mix things up. Choose a space that can feel inviting, inviting, and warm. Know that the room will be transformed once you install and decorate it.
- gather materials
Details matter! What materials can you find that would inspire love and sensuality? Collect candles, beautiful fabrics, blankets, pillows, anything that supports and cares for your lover. Finally, find a special token of appreciation for the finishing touch: it could be a flower, a piece of chocolate, or some other meaningful or beautiful object.
Have a carafe of water and a bottle of champagne with glasses on the nightstand or side table ready to be served at the desired time.
- Take out the sarongs
Instead of lingerie or other clothing, throw on a pair of colorful sarongs. They are easily put on and effortlessly removed at the right time. Place the pareo at the foot of the bed or mat where you will rest, play, love and enjoy.
- Set the ringtone
As you organize the materials you’ve collected, think about what configuration would best fit your space. If you are giving your loved one a massage or sacred healing session, create a comfortable pod on the floor or bed for her partner to lie down in. If you’re having an intentional lovemaking session, dress up the bed with soft fabrics and blankets to enhance the sensuality.
Scatter candles around the room and dim the lights. Place the special token, such as a flower or a piece of chocolate, on top of the pillow where her loved one will lay her head.
Finally, choose the music that best supports your Sacred Space. This could be soft, relaxing instrumental music or a playlist of your lover’s favorite songs. Or go to the Tantra Love channel on Pandora. Music makes a difference in mood.
- set an intention
Take a moment to step back and admire your work. Think about your beloved and the love you have for each other. Visualize the sense of awe and wonder being expressed by your lover as they enter the sanctuary. Harness that feeling and imagine spreading that love around the room, allowing it to encompass the space.
Set an intention for the night, such as honoring your loved one, and then relax and let go.
Now that you have prepared the sanctuary of love, you are ready to call your loved one into the Sacred Space. Notice the surprise on her face, her delight, and oh! Hugging and undressing in slow motion. Breathe together. Cut every moment. Take the sarongs and hang one around the body of your loved one and invite to be wrapped by your loved one in turn.
Dance! Move! Laughter! Breathe! Retire on the beautifully prepared bed or mat. And enjoy eternal love!
