***Using Feng Shui as a Clutter-Buster

Almost everyone I know is trying to "stay fit" or "get in shape" or "lose a few pounds." Health directives as well as personal experiences have pointed to the value of fitness. There's no question that healthy diets, consistent work-outs, and a constant vigilance to how we live our lives all contribute to better health. We live longer and live better if we're in shape. Along with this, we are also convinced that once we're in shape our life will go better. We'll be able to write that book, get that promotion, launch th

*** Winterizing With Feng Shui: What To Do When Winter Interferes with Your Flow

Living in northern climates necessitates a shift in mindset in terms of Feng Shui. When the temperatures and the snow start to fall, it’s important to consider how this changes your environment and how you need to make corresponding changes in how your Feng Shui is carried out. Doorways get piled with boots and jackets. Mittens and scarves might get strewn around. You can’t use your screened-in porch. Specifically selected and carefully positioned plants are buried by the white stuff. The pond freezes over; the sidewalks are buried. What happens to your Feng Shui?

***Feng Shui in the Garage

Although often treated as though it has little impact on a family’s life, in Feng Shui the garage can have an enormous influence. From money and relationships, to health and well-being, the garage may affect in positive or negative ways. Even if the garage is detached from the house, it can still be instrumental in making a person or family feel welcome or feel disconnected.

***Is Your Feng Shui Cooking? Critical Kitchen Considerations

Feng Shui is conce ed with the flow of energy in a space. One way to assess this flow is to determine how the energy moves through a home or office and whether there are places where it is stagnant or whether it flies through too quickly. Another way to assess the flow of energy is to determine what kind of filter it moves through when it first enters a space. You always want the energy near your front door to be enticing, offering a warm welcome as a first impression. A kitchen challenges this idea.

***The Not So Busy Life: Back to Basics with Feng Shui

Remember the days when you went home from your job on Friday afte oon and didn't think much about it until Monday morning? Remember when reading novels was a regular part of your life? Remember when the word "unplugged" was part of your vocabulary only when you were moving a lamp to another part of the room?

***What Happened to My Feng Shui Intention? Is This Even Working?

Sometimes, despite your honest and open-hearted approach, it seems like the intentions you used for specific Feng Shui adjustments are not only NOT materializing but you may actually be heading in the opposite direction. Even though you're pretty sure you did everything correctly, it feels like you must have done something wrong or, in truth, Feng Shui doesn't work for everyone.

Setting Boundaries with Feng Shui

Energy is a funny thing. It always works. It’s always “on.” Even when we pay no attention to it, there always seems to be some. Anyone who’s worked with energy is aware of its power----whether dealing with body energy, earth energy or space energy. Often I run into people who aren’t as ...

***Booked on Feng Shui: Your Books Speak Volumes

Most everyone I know owns books. Some people have skads of them—-so many, in fact, that they're stored in boxes in the basement. There are some people who can't let go of their college textbooks from 30 to 40 years ago. Others love their books so much they wouldn't think of keeping them in boxes—–so they're stacked in various corners waiting for the right place to call home.

***Stepping Up, Stepping Out: Taking Strides with Feng Shui

One observatio I’ve made over the years from working with people who are integrating Feng Shui principles is that Feng Shui does not support you hiding out any longer. You are required to face the music when it comes to the patterns of how you live, the ties to your things, and the truth about your own destiny. It sounds pretty heavy but sometimes Feng Shui is nothing short of a call from the wild.

And the Chi Goes On; Generational Feng Shui

Feng Shui has been such a part of my life for so many years that it’s hard for me to remember what it was like when I didn’t know about it. I have clients I’ve followed from one home to another, from one job to another, from one husband to another. Some of my clients and I have been together ...
