Feminine touches
Print Friendly, PDF & Email

I am, by nature, a brutally practical creature. Fortunately I married a man who is equally practical. For years we lived in a house devoid of ornaments, silk flowers, vases, oil burners, indoor plants and the like. The surfaces that other people would use to display such ‘clutter’ were instead taken up with practical (and ugly) things, such as books, face cream, glasses and toys. Lots of toys.

Then I read “Sink Reflections” by Marla Cilley and I finally understood what feminine touches are for – they are for keeping clutter off window sills, shelves and mantlepieces. I have silk flowers, oil burners, vases, indoor plants, vases and candles instead of the ugly clutter of daily life in my house. My husband doesn’t love my feminine touches, but I do. My house feels cleaner and tidier, my surroundings are prettier and I haven’t had to nag anyone about keeping the window sills clear. My feminine touches scare the men of the house away without a cross word being spoken.

Clear one clutter hot spot and put an attractive and feminine ornament on it. Preferably choose something that doesn’t require a lot of maintainance.

I began seeing the man I married that very evening.

I came to the session thinking it cant help my marriage that drastically but the effects were instantaneous!

I now have the tools to continue making improvements within my marriage, most importantly changes within myself.

I’ve come such a long way since my work with you

I was in such a mess with that relationship. I worked through my worthiness, self-love, finding myself and building my relationship with Allah. You introduced me to a whole new world

Nearly on the verge of divorce

Attending this two-day workshop was a memorable experience.

It helped my marriage at a time when it was nearly on the verge of a divorce.

Alhamdulillah, this is 6 years of a peaceful marriage – been married 18 years now.

Universal Principles

Principles that you can apply to any aspect of your life and relationships not just in marriage!

Sara has helped me in so many ways!

By allowing me to feel more empowered, by showing me how to action boundaries,

by helping me to find my self-esteem,

by explaining how other people may be feeling and how to understand this,

by enabling me to do self-care things which are helpful to me.

Sara empowered me to set boundaries, and stand up for myself.

She reminded me about my intentions and goals, and in general to have a much happier marriage and life.
