Feng Shui for peace and well being
By · CommentsHome is the foundation of everything. That’s why it’s so important that your home supports health, peace, and well being. I invite you to connect to your home just like you would connect to a person. Listen and pay attention to how you feel in your home. Ask yourself, do my spirits raise or fall when I walk in my front door? Whatever the answer is, things can always be done to improve the energy with a little knowledge and love.
Sleep is vital for rejuvenation so let’s start with some tips for a good night’s sleep. Place your bed so you have a full view of the door, but don’t place it directly under windows. If possible, don’t sleep with your head against the toilet wall. Solid, wooden, supportive headboards and natural mattresses are best.
The bedroom is a place for rest and romance, not work or exercise. Remove Energy Stimulants that have high amounts of electromagnetic energy like TVs, digital clocks, computers, and telephones. Clear all clutter from your bedroom and under your bed. Bedroom furniture should have rounded edges not sharp. If you have an en-suite bathroom, make sure the toilet lid is down and the door is shut before you settle down for the night.
A couple hours before bedtime, dim the lights to help your inner clock move towards sleep. Natural soy, paraffin-free candles are also a sensual and soothing way to calm the spirit. Use aromatherapy to further relax the body; try lavender or gardenia.
Create a special sleep ritual. Spend a couple minutes writing down your worries or anything you must remember for the next day so your mind can let go of anxiety. Have some herbal tea, meditate, do gentle yoga, take a walk, write in a gratitude journal, or take a warm bath.
Keep in mind a mirror at the foot of anyone’s bed is not advisable, especially children. It will make the child too active at nighttime. Bunk beds are not advisable for children, either. The child on the bottom feels compressed and the child on top does not have the ground support needed, which can lead to confusion and stress. Make sure artwork in children’s bedrooms does not depict fighting cartoon characters.
Have an abundance of plants in your home; they’ll improve air quality. Cactus and dried flowers, however, are not recommended. Place happy photos and images of you and family around and surround yourself with art you love and things that inspire you. Decorate with calming colors such as a pastels and earth tones.
The center of your home is considered the Health area so it’s important to keep it clutter free and open. Consider using an air ionizer and purifier. Add specific plants that purify the air, such as Boston Ferns. Try to spend some time enjoying Mother Nature at least once a day.
Aim to create a clutter-free kitchen with a sense of freshness and lightness. Adding a mirror above your stove will put you in the power position when you are cooking. Placing the colors blue or black near or on the refrigerator has been scientifically proven to help suppress appetite. Clear all random magnets and replace them with a single positive affirmation: “I love my body and feed it natural healthy foods.”
Keep a bowl of fresh fruit on the counter and grow fresh herbs and greenery in the window. Eat fresh, organic food and keep processed food with little chi value to a minimum. Create a sacred eating ritual, decorate the table with fresh flowers, bless your food, and show gratitude for it. To support conscious eating, always eat dinner sitting at the table not sitting watching television!
Inspiring health affirmations will also help you live in harmony. Try repeating:
I listen to my body’s messages with love.
I nourish my mind, body, and soul.
I am healthy, whole, and complete.
Feng Shui for Wealth and Abundance
By · CommentsOur surroundings have a powerful effect on what we attract into our lives. When the energy around us is blocked or unbalanced, our prosperity, health, and relationships can be adversely affected. Feng Shui improvements unblock the flow of positive energy, remove negative influences, and allow you to attract the prosperity and abundance you deserve.
Our Deepest Fear
By Marianne Williamson
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
So that other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We were all meant to shine, as children do.
It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.
One of the most important principals of Feng Shui is clearing clutter
Throwing out junk and getting rid of things like excess paper, empty boxes, and broken items can go a long way toward energizing your home for prosperity.
This includes
Your car, Your purse, Your garage, The computer inbox, Your desk top
Replace Burned Out Light Bulbs. If your rooms are dark so is your financial future; replace burned out bulbs and brighten your possibilities to attract wealth.
Clean you’re Windows. Windows are the eyes of your home; dirty windows cloud vision but clean windows represent a clear view of the opportunities.
No cracks in the windows this is our view out in the world
Remove Dead Plants. Dead plants symbolize dead energy; replace them with healthy living plants to grow wealth in your life.
Replace Your Desk Chair. If you sit on a broken, stained, or torn desk chair it represents disregard for your work; get a new chair and improve your career outlook.
Repair Broken Mirrors. If you look at a broken mirror you can’t see things smoothly; remove or replace it to reflect a smooth road to prosperity.
Tighten Lose Door Knobs and Handles. If your handles are loose you cannot get a grip on your money: tighten them and wealth will be within you grasped.

Express your gratitude The more you notice, appreciate, and express gratitude for blessings received, no matter how small, the more good things will come your way, including money.

Feng Shui for Valentines
By · CommentsRemove clutter Eliminate the old to bring in the new.
When you get rid of clutter, you are making room for romance. If you are single, create an empty space in your closet for a future lover’s things. If attached, make room in your drawers and closets so there is equal space for both you and your partner’s possessions.
If you have pictures of old boyfriends and girlfriends hanging around, then they’re still there! Get rid of the pictures and mementos. Make sure that you have new sheets, too, to sleep on. Old energy can linger in the bed as well.
No TV or Exercise Equipment! Keep the TV out of the bedroom. Any electronic equipment should be placed in the office or other area of the home. A TV in the bedroom is not conducive to romance. The bedroom is for lovin’ not work. A treadmill or workout machine in the bedroom makes your relationship exhausting.
It’s not advised to work out in the bedroom because this represents hard work that is often a hindrance of romantic space.
Always have things in pairs Replace mismatched night tables with a set to encourage equality in your relationship. Have a pair of lights show you want to share your life and home with your loved one.
Decorate your room in the right color Shades of pink helps draw love to you easily and create a romantic mood. Red, used sparingly, can be a sexy, bold color that creates passion or help draw a new lover.
Check the statues and art in your bedroom Replace any photos, sculptures or art of single people or figures. Replace them with happy couples. This simple change will help draw a wonderful partner! You should discard or put away photos and momentous of old flames. Gifts and anything with the ex’s energy on it, keeps new love at bay.
If there are any abstract, dark or sad artworks in the bedroom, take it out. These things encourage negativity when this room should be peaceful and safe for those who sleep there. You can replace it with a painting of Peonies, love birds or silk flowers as these represents love
Should the bedroom doors squeak, fix it because it blocks romantic energy from entering the bedroom.
The bedroom should be well ventilated so old energy moves out of the room.
Bed placement having your bed up against a wall, pushes away your chance for love. You should have your bed positioned so there is enough space to walk on either side. Not in line with the door but being able to see the door as you sleep.
The size of your bed matters!
If you are single a single mattress is not a good idea or snoozing on a king size or single mattress doesn’t encourage romance. There’s too much space. Sleeping on a huge mattress won’t encourage intimacy. Invest in a full size or a queen. What’s under your bed affects your sleep.
Satin sheets think of sensual, soft, bedding when selecting pillows, sheets and comforters. Any type of bedding that creates a cozy environment is great for the bedroom
Rose quartz or green quartz Buy chunks of rose quartz, rose quartz hearts, rose quartz lamps and place them in your bedroom. This stone is known to draw love into your life, increase self love and help heal a broken heart.
Personal photos don’t display family and kid photos in the bedroom. This is said to hinder your sex life. Put them in the living or family room where they belong!
Set the mood – the mood in the bedroom is important too Light scented candles, drape your lamps in sheer fabrics or lace. Keep lighting soft. Play romantic music.. Place “happy” photos of you and your honey on the dresser.
Use a magic box. This is said to draw a spouse to you. Write your deepest desires for a loved one on a piece of paper. Place this box in the SW corner of the house, in a cupboard or out of sight.
Mirrors in the bedroom… If they are facing the bed, relocate them because it reflects the couple on the bed. Some believe that this will cause a failure in the relationship because of the entry of a third party. Believe it or not, televisions are just as negative as mirrors do get rid of it.
Treat yourselves to fresh flowers and once they wilt, replace it. Remove dried flowers or cactus
The South West area of your home and any room is associated with love, make sure and spruce that area up with something that represents love
If the South West area corner of your home is missing make sure and add plants or stones to square off the corners.
Write a letter to your soul mate, making sure it is all written in present tense
To activate the South West area of your space try these ideas:
Desk: Place a beautiful stone (such as rose quartz) or a beautiful vase in the SW corner of your desk. Add red items in this location, crystal objects (a crystal pendulum clock would be wonderful here!), or red crystal paperweight is also a perfect addition.
Home/Living Room: Make sure the SW sectors of your home and living room have love objects appropriate to the SW corner.
Yard: Place a statue of a couple in this location, or plant some red or pink flowers here.
Fake it until you make it.
Make your bedroom appear as if a couple lived in it. So be sure to decorate it in a gender-neutral manner (no fussy flowers and pastels or severely masculine rooms). Make sure there are pairs of lamps (one on either side of the bed), and pairs of objects in the bedroom.

Feng Shui for Valentines
By · CommentsConsidering we spend more than 80-percent of our time indoors, it’s vital that our home is supportive and nurturing – that it serves as a haven for self-love and support. When you enter, it’s almost as if your abode is hugging and embracing you. This starts with you being kind to yourself, as your home is merely an outward expression of what’s happening inside.
As a Feng Shui teacher, people often ask me the best first step. Most importantly, I suggest that your home is clutter free. That means letting go of anything that no longer serves or honors you. For instance, clothing you haven’t worn in a year, appliances that are broken, objects you don’t need, use or LOVE. Oh and if someone gave you something that you don’t love, re-gift it or at least pass it on to someone who can truly use it. Find a charity you believe in and exercise a random act of kindness. You will probably receive even more in return.
With Valentines just around corner I thought it may be fun to go over some important tips for Feng Shui to attract love or enhance your present loving relationships
Remove clutter Eliminate the old to bring in the new.
When you get rid of clutter, you are making room for romance. If you are single, create an empty space in your closet for a future lover’s things. If attached, make room in your drawers and closets so there is equal space for both you and your partner’s possessions.
If you have pictures of old boyfriends and girlfriends hanging around, then they’re still there! Get rid of the pictures and mementos. Make sure that you have new sheets, too, to sleep on. Old energy can linger in the bed as well.
No TV or Exercise Equipment! Keep the TV out of the bedroom. Any electronic equipment should be placed in the office or other area of the home. A TV in the bedroom is not conducive to romance. The bedroom is for lovin’ not work. A treadmill or workout machine in the bedroom makes your relationship exhausting.
It’s not advised to work out in the bedroom because this represents hard work that is often a hindrance of romantic space.
Always have things in pairs Replace mismatched night tables with a set to encourage equality in your relationship. Have a pair of lights show you want to share your life and home with your loved one.

Creating a Feng Shui healing garden
By · CommentsGet your garden ready as we come into spring
A garden says a great deal to you as you pass it just like inside the home it is also just a reflection. An empty garden shows loneliness and possibly finances are limited, while a garden is overgrown shows your life as overwhelming and busy. Always ask yourself what your garden is saying to you? A garden should create a sense of inner peace. Providing nurturing and support for our lives. The earth is the mother on which the creative power of life is made. The soil, flowers and plants and wildlife are the earth’s gifts for us to honor, cherish and enjoy.
Its nice for the occupants to be able to hear flowing water and birdsong in the garden. These sounds are wonderful to hide the sounds of road traffic other such noises that are not good to hear. The use of herbs in your garden adds color and life; they also contain medicinal properties that have been used for centuries, plant herbs such as basil, Jasmine, lavender and rosemary.
Spending time in your garden brings us closer to the nurturing and healing power of mother nature. It truly is an honor to spend time in the garden and connect with the land and soil as you do send care and love the garden will give that back to you through pure beauty, smells and nourishment. Allow your garden to grow naturally without using chemicals and fertilizers.
Your garden can provide a sacred space for friends and family to gather and connect. The pathways should flow like a meandering stream not a straight road, Avoid dead end paths and complex formations.
Landscaping should be given love regularly not to get overgrown, cover walkways or entry, or shadow the house. Keep the garden well maintained. Always keep garbage cans hidden. Clear clutter from garden sheds and have the necessary shelving to keep all the tools and equipment organized.
Balance the five elements fire, earth, water, wood, and metal into the landscaping that harmonizes and balances your garden. Choose plants that are plentiful and look rich and vibrant. Great colors are plants with red, purple and royal blue flowers. Plant flowers with soft leaves, and avoid plants with thorns, spines or pointy leaves especially by the front entrance area this will keep away the positive energy.
Invite wildlife to your garden by adding birdbaths, fountains and bird feeders. Consider planting flowers which attract humming birds and butterflies and keep artificial birds, wildlife and butterflies to a bare minimum. A water feature is always a great addition; it must be positioned in the correct location for enhancement. The best locations are in the East and Southwest corners. Very important to keep it clean and make sure it flows either in a 360 degree pattern, or towards the house.
We love to have trees in the garden however make sure they are not placed in a direct line with any entrances, especially the main entrance this will block the energy from entering your home. Try to keep a balance of yin and yang (dark and light) when thinking of the trees. Avoid trees that will completely block the light. Too much of anything is not good. Again, balance is the key. Have a beautiful view from every window and door this gives a feeling of pure abundance and joy
Your garden can be a perfect retreat for you to enjoy it.

Home truly is where the heart is. That’s why it’s so important that your home is nurturing, supportive, safe and makes you feel like you’re getting a great big hug when you walk in the door. No matter what’s going on in the world outside, once you step inside you should be completely relaxed and able to connect body, mind and spirit. When you implement changes in your home, you will notice that your life is also transformed instantly, dramatically and permanently.
The Solar Year begins February 4, 2012 at 6:40 PM; and with it the transition from Metal Rabbit to Water Dragon.
The numerology for 2012 is a 5-year, which means action, movement and change! Expect lots of inner and outer changes in the next 12 months, especially once you integrate the elements of feng shui into your home. A year like this is also excellent for personal transformation and releasing any old patterns that are no longer serving you.
Make a fresh start and take a first step by releasing clutter to make room for new abundance. And most importantly, don’t forget to do something loving and nurturing for YOU daily. Yoga, self massage, a walk in nature, healthy eating and connecting with the people you love are key for balance and prosperity in 2012.
Some Suggestions to Implement for 2012
Create a Vision Board Collage for the year 2012. Start with images that express what you want to “manifest” during the year. Consider the areas of love, joy, vibrant health and empowerment, then create a collage that makes your heart sing every time you look at it. Keep it somewhere that you’ll see each day and that’s private just for you.
Clear the clutter from your home. One of the most important things you can do for your finances is simply to clean up clutter! Throwing out junk and getting rid of things like excess paper, empty boxes and broken items can go a long way toward energizing your home for prosperity. This includes your car, your purse, your garage, your computer’s inbox and even your desk top.
Create an altar to reconnect with the deeper parts of ourselves.
Clear out the old and welcome in the new energies. Cleanse the energy in your home by burning sage, ringing bells, singing and opening windows and doors. Start at the front door and work clockwise around your home, getting into all the corners, nooks and crannies with either the sage or bells.
Express your gratitude for your home. The energy you give to it is the energy you will receive from it. The more you notice, appreciate and express gratitude for blessings received (no matter how small), the more good things will come your way, including money. Start a gratitude journal to track your daily thanks.
Clean your Front Door. The front door is where all good energy enters your home; a clean door attracts prosperity while a dirty or faded door repels it.
Replace burned out light bulbs. If your rooms are dark so is your financial future. Replace burned out bulbs and brighten your possibilities to attract wealth.
Clean your Windows. Windows are the eyes of your home; dirty windows cloud vision but clean windows represent a clear view of the opportunities. Windows are truly your view to the world so also repair all cracks and broken panes.
Remove Dead Plants. Dead plants symbolize dead energy. Replace them with healthy, living plants to grow wealth in your life.
Repair broken mirrors. If you look at a broken mirror you can’t see things smoothly or clearly. Remove or replace it to reflect a smooth road to prosperity.
Tighten loose door knobs and handles. If your handles are loose you cannot get a grip on your money. Tighten them and wealth will be within your grasp.
Add artwork. Being surrounded by artwork you love and things that inspire you will enter your subconscious all day. Art is also an excellent way to help create the symbols and images needed to help attract positive energy.
Important Reminders for 2012:
Do something loving and nurturing for YOU!—Daily! Self massage, yoga, walk in nature, eat healthy, connect with the people you love!
Create a Vision Board and place somewhere that you see daily that is private for you.
Write an affirmation in each of the sections of your home; write in present tense and all positive.
Cleanse and protect your energy daily using visualizing white light all around you or the violet flame.
Cleanse the Energy in your home with sage, bells, singing, opening the windows and doors
Live generously.
Express your gratitude.
Energize your finances: Get a red purse or wallet; it attracts money.
