Feng Shui Quick Tips
Did you know that part of my training is in Feng Shui? I read this book many years ago called “Feng Shui your Life” - by Jayme Barrett. I highly recommend it if this topic is something that interests you! In the meantime, here’s my modern take on Feng Shui and what I learned in Nutrition School🏡
Your home environment plays a crucial role in your health and happiness. Creating a space that feels comfortable and brings you joy, peace, nourishment and creativity is both empowering and crucial for living a happy and healthy life.
Just as I encourage you to fill your body with delicious healthy foods to achieve optimal health it’s important to create a home that lights you up too!
Feng Shui
Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese art form used to create greater health, wealth and happiness. In the art of Feng Shui you organize your home in a way that enhances the flow of CHI - think of CHI as ENERGY for the mind, body and spirit. There are many techniques for enhancing the CHI or flow of energy in an environment.
Use the tips below to bring more balance to your home environment. Have fun with it!
MONEY
A first impression sets the tone. Make the entrance to your home beautiful. Your doorbell should work properly and the number on your home should be visible so abundance can find you.
Fix any leaks in your home as they represent financial leaks. Keeping your home stable will support your financial stability and growth.
Close your toilet lid when it’s not in use. Like leaks, the toilet represents flushing things away; you don’t want money to be one of those things. Keep the lid closed to keep your finances protected and attract more abundance.
Explore subconscious beliefs about money: Do you believe that money is scarce? Do you think that you have to work really hard to make ends meet? Do you feel as though there’s not enough to go around? Replace those thoughts with a positive affirmation. For example: “Abundance comes easily to me through many different channels.”
Keep your wallet organized to show that you respect money and spend it wisely. Try buying a brightly colored wallet in red, green, or purple tones as these colors are said to attract financial abundance.
Your stove represents abundance, so keep it clean and use all the burners equally. Utilizing each burner opens a variety of opportunities and financial channels.
HEALTH
Clear out clutter in your living space.
Get a great mattress that supports your body and allows for deep rest and restoration.
Pay attention to the airflow in your living space. Put in fans for air and energy movement and plants for air purification.
Reserve your bedroom for sleeping and sex – no work or papers.
LOVE
Always throw away dead flowers.
Keep candles in your bedroom to create romantic ambiance.
Keep your bed linens clean, fresh, and crisp.
Meditate daily to clear your mind.
Put two roses next to your bed and visualize what they mean for you in terms of calling in love.
Sleep on one side of your bed and clear out a few dresser drawers to make space for your partner.
I love the art of Feng Shui because it’s such a FUN WAY to practice MINDFULNESS while living your life with INTENTION.
Happy Weekend Friends xoxo
