I find it comforting to lie on my guest bed and pet my cats. it is very quiet and peaceful and a comfortable bed and the cats are so rewarding, one of them is very loving so she is my favorite, so I lavish attention upon her.
That bed room is a combination, office storage area, guest bed, queen size, I have many pictures on the walls that I love, it is a catch all room.
even though the room is very cluttered the actual bed is free from stuff so I can lie there in peace. I find my own bed very comforting and spend as much time in it as possible. I am thinking that perhaps she is wanting you to create a comfy chair sitting area that you can curl up and read a book? do you have an extra space that you could do that?
maybe part of your bed room or off the living room?
did yoiu friend come over to help with some of your boxes? maybe she could help you create some sacred space.
Your therapist sounds helpful?
