Today I am going shopping to buy a couple of items to make up a real life safe place in my home. I am really looking forward to it.
A while ago I drew my perfect imaginary safe place. It was very interesting to see not only what went into it, but also to see what was left out of it. Very interesting. The book "Got Parts" has some really nice examples of safe place drawings.
I thought it might be nice to hear of various imaginary (or real) safe places.
My imaginary safe place was wonderful. It had an indoor section with a big magical library. I just had to think of a topic and the shelves would magically fill with books about that subject.
It had a magical teleportal link to my T's office. So I could immediately go there any time I wanted.
It had an art and craft work area with lots of kitty cats to comfort me.
It had beautiful paintings on the walls.
It had a huge bed piled high with quilts and pillows and was the perfect nest for journalling, reading, napping, etc.
The outdoor area was amazing. There was a giant rocky mountain to climb and explore. There were meandering paths through a beautiful cottage garden filled with birds and butterflies and interesting insects. There was a track down to the beach where I could build sandcastles or explore rock pools or go paddling.
There was a swing set and lots of kitties sleeping in various nooks and crannies. And lots and lots of birds to watch and have visit me.
The whole place was surrounded by a forcefield so no one could get in and I had something there to protect me. I can't remember if it was a dragon or a lion. But the protecting creature loved me very much and kept me very safe.
What does your safe place look like?
