\"\"<\/a>I bought a new couch earlier this year and wrote on Facebook that “Anything I bring into the house goes thru a 24 hour blessing process.” \u00a0A friend asked me to elaborate. \u00a0I responded, “My blessing process is praying over anything that comes into the house, something simple like “Heavenly Father\/Mother\/God, surround us with your holy presence and bless this couch for the good of the family, let it bring us comfort and joy so we may extend comfort and joy. Aho.” Then I smudge it and let it sit for 24 hours, on the altar if it’s a small item, in front of it if it’s a big item like a couch. \u00a0If they are books, they get prayed over, then 12 hours in the sunshine and then smudged and overnight on the altar. \u00a0I want to acknowledge that every item I have has a sacred purpose, to minimize the importance of nothing.<\/p>\n
