One of my personal mantras is to “Keep Myself Sacred”. I try to make a habit of this practice in daily life. For example if I am doing the Ayurvedic self oiling, putting on moisturizer, spritzing perfume or adding aromatherapy, …. I use the concept of self anointing. The word anointing makes a simple daily practice sacred to me and helps me remember that I too am a sacred being worthy of self care and much more. Ultimately I am making a ritual of performing simple daily function in a mindful way which can make me feel special. Sacred!
This concept can be applied to anything I do habitually. A beverage in the morning, wrapping a warm blanket around me in the cold, making a meal, opening the windows to witness another beautiful day, walking the dogs, ….. If I am keeping myself sacred I am slowing down to enjoy everything I do and appreciate myself. I am making and realizing that everything sacred. Sometimes I forget that everything is sacred, including me.
Always remember to Keep Yourself Sacred!
