A Place of Your Own


A Place of Your Own: A cluster of cherished photographs. An arrangement of beautiful objects. A place where you reflect on the day almost past, or the one yet to come.

A Place of Your Own

A Guide to Creating Sacred Spaces in Your Home


Our spirituality is unbounded, infusing every corner of our homes. But often, in one special corner, our spiritual selves take concrete form in home-fashioned shrines or altars that help give our daily lives meaning. This simple guide shows how to create such sacred spaces--or to add to one that may have already begun to take shape. In addition, it offers fifty-two weekly devotions for use at home--in an invaluable companion to anyone, regardless of background or belief, who seeks the life of the soul.
