  • 60. The fifth (and final?) Sanctuary tenet

    Musings on Sanctuary and Spirituality with Helen Joy Butler is a weekly podcast where we talk about Sanctuary, Spirituality, and everything in between!

    On her own Sanctuary journey Helen discovered that by bringing calm, connection and kindness into all aspects of her life she was able to open the channel to her spiritual gifts and abilities as a psychic, intuitive and energy healer.

    With her gentle approach, Helen shares practical and spiritual ways you can make real change in your life and return to your true Spiritual nature, all through the concept of Sanctuary.

    Episode Notes

    Many years ago four Sanctuary tenets landed. These tenets 'sit' at the top of The Sanctuary Pyramid and are there to guide us on our journey. Earlier this year however a fifth - and perhaps final! - tenet landed, and as soon as it did I felt such a deep truth and connection to it I felt that the puzzle was complete (for now!).

    In this episode of Musings on Sanctuary and Spirituality I share

    • The four original Sanctuary tenets - Sanctuary is Sacred; Sanctuary is Deep Self Awareness; Sanctuary is You at Your Core, and at the Core of Everything You Do; and Sanctuary is Your Unique Connection with the Universe - and what they actually mean
    • The fifth (and final?) Sanctuary tenet - Sanctuary is Your Soul Vibration Made Manifest - and what that actually means
    • The concept of a Passion Board, a practical and fun way to connect with this fifth tenet so that it makes sense for you
    • That I'm taking a Sanctuary Siesta and an extended pause from all things in my business, and what that looks like for you

          Helen @helenjoybutler // Dorena @spacedoula // Sherry @sherrytrentini

          In this Round Table episode of Musings on Sanctuary and Spirituality, Dorena, Sherry and I talk about three main concepts, and ask the following questions:

          1. The pain / tipping point

          • When does the pain of staying stuck become greater than the fear or resistance of taking action?
          • When is / what's the tipping point? How do we recognise it?
          • 2. Taking the leap

            • How do we heed the nudge or call to create Sanctuary?
            • How do we make the leap / connection to what we're doing in our home / body / life, to create Sanctuary fully in our lives?
            • 3. I’m there - now what?

              • Once we create Sanctuary are we done?
              • How do we evolve with the cyclical nature of the Sanctuary process?

                          Helen @helenjoybutler // Dorena @spacedoula // Sherry @sherrytrentini

                          In this Round Table episode of Musings on Sanctuary and Spirituality, Dorena, Sherry and I talk about

                          • How “it’s all too hard” impacts our ability to create Sanctuary in our home and spaces
                          • The emotional impact of the things we’re surrounded with
                          • The emotional energy of things that don’t suit us and / or our home anymore
                          • The stories we attach to things, whether they’re true or not, and how they support (or not) the future we see for ourselves
                          • Walking through our lives and not really paying attention
                          • Energetic attachments and how to let go of them
                          • Why we sacrifice ourselves and hold onto everybody’s stuff
                          • How we accomodate other people’s wishes by being a ‘good’ daughter / son / parent
                          • Releasing and honouring the items we want to move on
                          • Finding the balance between ‘no attachment’ and a ‘great deal of attachment’ and what compromise has to do with it
                          • Why putting things in the garage or cupboard and bringing it out when guests arrive is a lot more work than actually dealing with it
                          • The physical, emotional and spiritual affect of items we hold onto that aren’t energetically aligned with us
                          • The energetic connection to gifts we give others, and what that means if you like, or don’t like, a gift you give / receive
                          • How the energetic connection between gift giver and gift receiver can be clear or sticky, and how that can create an energetic discord
                          • Three ways to make creating Sanctuary in your home easy - one from Helen, one from Dorena and one from Sherry
                          • The Spiritual Spiral - as we evolve, so does our space
                          • Permission to change
                          • The concept of “you can’t see the label when you’re inside the bottle”
                          • How helpful a third party vision can be
                          • How energetically different it is to be in a space compared to seeing a photo of it, and how this can open our eyes to the truth
                          • Why we’re always sacrificing and compromising for our greater good
                          • The infinity symbol external / internal relationship and how it supports our home to bring us back to ourselves
