In this issue, I’m sharing what sanctuary truly is, why it matters, and how you can begin weaving its energy into your life and space…

What is Sanctuary? (Part 1)

There is a place where beauty soothes, wisdom whispers, and nature’s magic gathers quietly around you. A place that is not just seen, but felt deeply.

Be with this feeling for just a moment. This is sanctuary.

I create sanctuaries — for your home, garden, and soul.

For nearly 30 years, I’ve blended science and spirit: neuroaesthetics, environmental design, and therapeutic studies together with personal and spiritual growth. This is my work. The spaces I help craft are more than beautiful - more than just another pretty space — they are healing, evidence-based environments that support wellbeing, empowerment, and transformation.

These results could read what we all want: joy, happiness, wellness, recovery, resilience, or simply, peace and delight.

I've coined phrases like sanctuary within, sacred beauty, and flower magic — not just as ideas, but living frameworks that invite you into a deeper, more nourishing relationship with Nature and the Divine Feminine.

So, what is Sanctuary?

It’s finding that out there in Healing Nature which mirrors the in here of your heart and soul — bringing you back into balance, restoring harmony.

It is energy, above all else.

It is safe haven, refuge, asylum, and retreat, as Webster defines. And beyond that, Sanctuary becomes Sacred Space.

Sanctuary supports your soul’s purpose and satisfaction, nourishing your living life and your values. It is the place where you hear your own wisdom, receive support, and commune with Healing Nature as you move through the seasons of life.

It is where spiritual, practical, magical, and medicinal energies weave together to ground, empower, and uplift you.

It's personal.

Intentional, and meaningful. 

Take a moment today: What is sanctuary for you? Where do you feel safe, restored, and connected to something larger than yourself and to your "True Self"?
Reflect on your personal definition because doing so has the power to heal.

When you’re ready, I invite you to connect with me for my Sanctuary Garden Design Mentorship — a personalized design experience where I coach you to create sanctuary in your home and garden - passing to you life-long, deeper-design tools and wisdom for your sacred space.

And stay close — soon I’m announcing something special: a new kind of "garden club". Having you be a part of our sanctuary circle would be glorious.

Thank you for gifting me your time.
Until next, take good care of your precious Self,

. . .
