Tune into your space (prompts)

How do we begin to understand how much a space is really ours?

Here is a list of (mostly yes/no) questions to ask yourself when you’re not sure to what degree you resonate with your space. We suggest reading or listening when you’re feeling embodied and rested, such as upon waking or after a few deep breaths.

01 Observe

How do feel when you enter each space?

Do you feel calm?

Do you feel energized?

Do you feel inspired?

Are there areas where you feel overwhelmed or uncomfortable?

What elements stand out to you that contribute to the overall feeling?

02 Identify your needs and goals

In each room…

Do you want to feel relaxed?

Do you want to feel productive?

Do you want to feel social?

Do you want to feel pensive?

Are there specific activities or moments you want to nurture?

What emotions or moods do you want to feel in each space?



03 Small, intentional changes

What adjustments could improve the flow or feel of the space?

Could you move a piece of furniture to the other side of the room?

Could you add a plant or a piece of art?

Could you sell or donate something that feels a bit like clutter?

Could you introduce a new texture, colour, or type of light to enhance the atmosphere?

04 Reflect

How do you feel after making these changes to your space? It may take a few days to decide.

Does it meet functional needs?

Does it meet your emotional needs?

What other adjustments could you make to improve comfort, connection, or balance?

05 Live in the space

Spend some time, like normal, and observe how it continues to affect you.

Are there new areas that now feel more aligned?

Are there spaces that need further attention?

Revisit in a few weeks to reassess and make additional changes.
