Making Space for Sacred Space
When you read a great inspirational book, prayer, or article, don't you think to yourself, "What a great idea! I should do more daily rituals, prayer, meditation."? It always seems like a great idea, right? We know that sacred practices and sacred space bring peace, harmony, joy, and ease into our lives. Sounds like a great idea! The problem is that the impulse to add more sacred activity into our lives only lasts for a few moments-then life intrudes and we forget all about it until the next time we read something inspiring. So how can we really make space for sacred space in our lives? Luckily it's not as hard as you think. Check out these simple ways you can expand the sacred in your life: 1) Be Simple and Consistent: Consistency in creating sacred space is much more important than quantity. Choose one sacred practice you will do every day, and do it every day.
Even if you just sit and breathe for 3 minutes in silence, you'll feel the benefit of those 3 minutes throughout your day. 2) Clear Out the Clutter: Sacred space means actually having a space where you can be in the sacred. Dedicate one area of your house to the sacred by clearing out all the excess junk, creating an altar or space for sacred objects there, and keeping it fresh with incense, candles, or plants. Keep the area energetically clean with by smudging (get instructions by sending a blank email to cleansmudge@shamanschool.com).* 3) Have Great Beginnings or Endings: Putting sacred practice at the beginning or end of your day will make it easier to remember and do. Starting your day with sacred practice will bring you peace and awareness throughout the day.
Ending your day with sacred practice will help you rest deeply and beneficially. 4) Take Your Sacred Space Outdoors: There's nothing like nature to bring the sacred into our awareness. If you find it difficult to get out of your daily routine indoors, spend a few moments outdoors each day, greeting the sky and earth. You'll be amazed at how fast you connect to the sacred. 5) Move in Sacredness: For those of us who can't sit still long enough to meditate, walking can also be a way to create the sacred.
Walking and praying, or walking and talking with our higher powers can create sacred space around you, plus you can take it with you everywhere you go!.

Football Season - Home Stadium
Football season - a nip in the air and a feeling of excitement, enthusiasm, and a whole lot of fun. But all that cheering, whether in the stadium or in your living room means that food will be a main requirement to keep the momentum going. A sit-down dinner is out of the question and buffet-style is as good as it gets. Lots of finger-foods and snack-items so that during intermission, plates can be filled up and not a minute of the action will be missed. Decor for all your football parties is simple and should not be too "busy." After all, the game will be the highlight of the event.
Choosing team colors, banners, and other paraphernalia that represents your favorite team, who you are rooting for, or the colors of the teams that are currently playing will, of course, dominate your choice of "decor." Fall flowers (mums, dried flowers, etc.) can grace your table as well as pumpkins and bowls of fresh apples and Indian apples. Hot foods can be kept at serving temperatures in chafing...

Every Baby Shower Needs Great Baby Shower Games!
Games for a baby shower help the baby shower hostess make sure that all guests feel at ease. In most cases, only the mother-to-be knows all the invited guests, so the introductions as well as conversation starters are the responsibility of the hostess. Babyshower games are a popular way to break the ice and give people a reason to mingle and talk to others, especially the people they don't know. When games for a babyshower are introduced and managed well they make the guests want to stay longer. They also give the expectant mother a little stress-free fun and enjoyment ? which is something she really needs at this stage of her pregnancy.
As a hostess you should be creative with the baby shower party games and select games that are age appropriate. More than likely your attendees have been to many other baby showers and they will find it a little boring, if the same old babyshower party games are played. It's best to reward the winners with small prizes. Your prizes don't need...
