CREATING YOUR PRIVATE OASIS
What would a private oasis look like to you? Hmm, how about creating a SHE – SHED. Let’ s look at some basic tips in doing so.
• Location – this could be an extra room in your home, space in your attic, a basement or even your backyard shed.
• Oasis – your space should be a place to not only have privacy but it allows you to relax and have peace.

• Theme – your space should represent who you are; sports buff, workout space, pamper room, movie lover, office, etc. The main thing is to make it your own.
• Extras – be sure so spruce it up with candles, LED lighting, pillows, pictures, furniture, music
Just to give you an idea, my SHE- SHED is outdoors. It is my quiet, get away from the family, happy place. Where I go, when I need some alone time with God. I divided it into three sections: a gym, an office and a lounge with a beverage cooler.
Your SHE – SHED should be the one place that you do not have to share with anyone; it’ s all yours. That may seem a little selfish but I feel it is much needed and when you can create a space that’ s all yours and can still be at home, that’ s a blessing.
Remember, it’ s about making it yours, you can literally go on vacation and never leave home. It’ s all about what you put into it.
