Intuitive Space Clearing & Feng Shui

Cooking with gas!!

So here we go, sliding into another season. September brings new beginnings to many. New classroom, perhaps new job, new town or even new country. It defines itself as a time of transition and change. The shifting from the lazy days of summer to routines and schedules. With new beginnings comes uncertainty, change can feel unsteady and full of potholes. So, how do we create a fresh perspective on change and embrace the shift? Feng Shui teaches us that change is constant and e...ver evolving. So why do we resist what is happening? Guess we like to know what’s going on, to forecast the future with certainty, ah! To be human! So I thought I would provide some tips to help create a smoother transition. The thing is we all resist change, so we can stew in the pot together and complain about ‘ah, summer is over and with it the warmer days,’ or ‘I am not ready for my holiday to be over, it was way to short.’ And so on......! One way to help is to think about how the cooler days can bring their own reward, apple picking, the harvest, and establishing a new routine like regular fitness or taking a short course in something you are interested in helps give you a focus and create a feeling of satisfaction. Perhaps you have been feeling restless and unable to settle, Fall is a wonderful time to declutter those items you no longer love or need. This helps to create balance and harmony in your home/life. Fall also provides opportunities to evaluate where you are in your life and search out opportunities for healthier options. It seems people get back to routine activities like book club, fitness, or meeting up for coffee with friends. By shifting our perspective we can find joy and fun in the Fall months. Give it a try!

There is something magical about starting fresh. As 2018 reaches us we are full of promise and plans for the upcoming year. Feng Shui teaches us to bring along what we need/love, and leave the rest. This is true for all aspects of our life, private and public. The private could include our home environment that holds our treasures, our secrets, our family, and our memories. Perhaps a good house cleaning of what no longer serves us can be a welcoming step as we round the corne...r to the new year. The public aspect of our life might include our work life, our interests/ hobbies, our friends, and our social life. Again perhaps a good triage of what’s working and what’s not working can help us declutter many unwanted aspects of our lifestyle. Starting fresh with fresh eyes can inform us of how we would like to experience the new year. May you know contentment and peace of mind as you dance your way into 2018!! See more

Part 2 of the power of doorways/entrances. Once you pass through a doorway it often changes your experience. The energy shifts and with it your feelings. Many of us notice these sensations when we arrive home. Passing from the public space of the outside world to the private space of home! Next time you enter your home notice how you are feeling. Are you happy to be home or is there an unsetted feeling? Notice your surroundings, is there clutter, can you fully open the door,... or conversely, does it feel open and welcoming? When an entranceway is cluttered with boots, coats, or any type of blocks, it can stop the flow of energy (chi) and create blockages in your life. Basically, you become stuck. If you can't fully open the door perhaps your life is lived in half measures, you get so far and then you feel stuck unable to move forward. And in turn, when your entrance is clutter free, warm and inviting, you feel like you have space to breathe and can move forward with ease. The simple solution of using colour can enhance or repell when entering a space, explore what colours draw you to a space and what colours create a feeling of avoidance. Usually soft colours create a subdued feeling while bright happy colours create feelings of energy and excitement. So next time you pass through a doorway notice how you are feeling and notice your surroundings. You can create an empowering environment that enhances your life just by opening up your awareness of your living environment. Hope this was helpful and that I have empowered you to notice and adjust your living/working environments for a joyful life! See more
