I once read that, in order to foster a quality quiet time, that it is important to have a place of your own. A place where you can read comfortably and a place you can count on to be ready for you and your reading time. It resonated with me completely.

Ever since then, I have fallen in love with sitting nooks of all shapes and sizes. To me, sitting nooks are a promise of a quiet moment to come. I only need be faithful to those quiet moments, head to my special chair, and spend time recharging my soul and my spirit.

You don’t need much:

1. A comfortable chair,

2. a light,

3. a small table, large enough to set down one book and a cup of coffee,

4. and a place to keep your books {which could also be a feature of your small table. I use a small basket, which is currently overflowing!}.

5. {optional} a place to put up your feet. Or kneel, if you would like to.
