Inspirations to get started creating a space just for you to be yourself, a place to restore and revive and for some much deserved me time.

Men for too long have had their dedicated escape space – the he-shed. But it can be hard for us as women to find our very own "she space" in the home. Here are 4 practical inspirations to get started to create that me time in your home.

Step 1. Decide what you want from your she space
Before you begin, think about what the intention is for your space. What are you seeking to feel and be in this space and how do you want to use it. Do you want to:
Create a private space for meditation, yoga or reflection?
Create a space to inspire creative passions or hobbies?
Designate a shared space for connecting with others or recreation?
Creating a space for worship, rituals or other spiritual work?

Step 2: Find inspiration in what you love
Make your she space personal. Choose what tastes, sounds, smells, looks and feels good to you. Choose objects that give you energy, inspire you or help you get into the ritual of your meditation, prayer, creative or other pursuits.
Step 3: Decide where you should locate your she space
You can create your sacred space:
Where you can see it easily— a special object of meaning—across from your bed, a desk, on a bookshelf that is open and available to you.
As a small part of any room — whether it's a single meaningful object, an arrangement or an altar
Wherever you have room — if not an entire room, then a corner of a room (dividing screens are perfect for this)
In a secluded area — such as a spare room or attic/basement as long as this a space you can connect with and create your space in.
In the garden — a section just for you or inter-space which is half inside/half outside (alfresco or courtyard)

Step 4: Decide on the kinds of items you should include in your space
What items do you already own or need to have that speak to you, inspire you and moves you to spend time in this space?
• Mementos: objects that are meaningful to you
• Talismans: symbols and items of peace and inner power
• Art—your own creative works or friends, collections or pieces that speak to you
• Photographs of loved ones and special places
• Stones, shells and other nature elements collected from special places
• Candles, incense and other aromatherapy
• The five senses as colour, light, textures, patterns, water fountains, sound such as chimes and music.
• Living nature such as plants and flowers
• Personal spiritual items such as books, statutes, tarot and the like
Step 5: Use your power of intuition

She space starts with a desire within you to create something on the outside of yourself. Remember that this space is yours. Trust your intuition and lead from your heart which will show you the way to creating your own space. See where it takes you!
