Starting A New Life With Feng Shui

Everybody goes through up and down. In our lifetime we get to meet different people and undergo different experiences. The good times gives us memories to look back to and the bad times gives us lessons to learn.

Starting a new life is not hard, but it’s not that easy either. It’s an emotional thing. It takes time to heal and it will take time to move on.

7 Feng Shui Steps To A Healthier Life

Feng shui is about going through a personal experience that gives you a brand new life. It’s about making that shift in your life.

Below are tips on how to make a brand new start.

1. Go for change. Try changing the little things in life. You can try a different way of going to the store or try to use the stairs as much as possible. Staying in your comfort zone will never do you  good. Change no matter how big or small can make you look at things in another perspective and let you gain new experiences.

2. Put some paintings on your wall. Paintings will make your wall look so refreshing. Choose paintings that have a view of nature.

3. Give your front door a new look. The main entrance of your house is the mouth of chi. It’s where the energy of happiness, wealth, health and other kinds of live energy comes in. You can repaint it, change the doorknob or put something that will make your home look better.

4. Start learning a new skill. Nobody’s too old to learn something new. Learn how to play a musical instrument or perhaps a new craft.

5. Reconnect with your good old friends or some family members. Due to our busy lives, we don’t always have the chance to spend some quality time with our friends and love ones. Just a simple call or a walk in the park will make a difference.

6. Give importance to your health. Health is wealth. We live in a fast-paced life that we tend to unconsciously neglect our health. Start doing 5-minute exercise, then increase the length of time little by little.

Making a brand new start is not a New Year’s Day thing. If you feel that you have lost the excitement and the essence of life, don’t hesitate to make little changes. Shift the energy in your space and bring back the life that you used to have.

The Truth About Feng Shui

We always hear about the word feng shui. However, our knowledge about it is very limited. We think that it is just about arranging the things in our space for the purpose of abundance.

Declutter In Seven Easy Steps

Below are the eight things that you don’t know about feng shui.

1. Feng shui is not a trend. This philosophy has been used for more than three thousand years and is gaining popularity in the West because of its effectiveness.

2. We are surrounded by energy. It is the only constant force in the universe. Feng shui deals with using this energy in a way that it will affect us in a positive way.

3. The five elements of feng shui are earth, water, fire, wood, and metal. Harmony and balance come from using the five elements in a correct way.

4. Using the Bagua map is important when applying feng shui in your home. It is an important tool in feng shui and it should be used correctly.

5. Specific colors represent each of the five elements. Green and brown are for the wood element, Light yellow, light brown and earthy colors belong to the earth element, the red, orange and pink colors belong to the fire element, the white and gray colors are for the metal element, and blue and black color belong to the water element.

6. There are some places in our space that are more important than others. These spaces can affect our health, wealth and relationships.

7. The main entrance of a property is important. It is called the mouth of chi.It should be inviting and free from any clutter.

Opportunities Knock On Door With Good Vibes

8. Feng shui is about the powers of nature. It is about using what mother nature has given us to make a positive living. When constructing or renovating your home, prefer to have bigger doors and windows to let the sunshine in. Use indoor plants to purify the air that you breathe in your space.

Applying good feng shui in our place is a must. When there’s balance in your space, peace, and harmony exist which means happiness and prosperity.

This video was taken in one of the inner cities in U.K. but the scene is quite a common spectacle in many cities across U.S.A. and U.K.  In U.K. alone there are 850.000 properties empty – yes can you believe that?  No one lives in them some in areas quite attractive some of those houses owned by the government-the council of that area.

I myself have worked in housing throughout the U.K. as well as being a property developer too!  The one good feature about the hot property train in the U.K. is that private developers have been prepared to renovate properties that were just being wasted and uninhabitable.  That is, private funding has breathed the Dragon Energy into these places making them more attractive for people to want to own or rent them.

However, streets and streets of houses were left empty for years a particular example of this was the Welsh Streets in south Liverpool where Ringo Starr of the Beatles grew up.  I actually visited a client there once who was the last resident on the street and the one thing that stood out was she continued to have her hanging basket of flowers outside her home.

Yes, even when all around you is delapidated and fading if you can reach in to your own energy well and bring this out then it shifts everything else you see.  But what happens when you have nowhere to live?  There is no availability?  There are thousands of families alone in London living out of hotels and bed and breakfast dwellings.

Only 8 of the families affected by the Grenfell Disaster have been rehoused everyone else is in temporary accommodation.  How can you Feng Shui your environment when you have nowhere else to go, live or be part of?

When thousands of people have been deemed homeless because suddenly huge superpowers want to bomb your residence for no other reason because they can then where do you go and what do you do?  One day you are a nurse working in a hospital the next day you are climbing a mountain with nothing but the clothes on your back!

What happens as a result if this affects peoples’ self worth, their mental health, their whole value in life.  What other people take for granted these people are wondering which is the best place to stay safe, warm and sane.

The solution to homelessness is quite simple really for the U.K. – one of the richest countries in the world cannot provide houses for people to buy or rent?  Here is my list of points why there is insufficient housing and some of it has a lot to do with the Feng Shui of the Country itself:

1. This country has so much land in which it could spread out into but what has happened is the government has ensured that everybody has been herded into small areas where people are living on top of each other –  this is all about social control.  Having lived all over this country when I visited places like Hampshire, Somerset, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire there were plenty of spaces there for people to live – yes employment is the big driver but never before have we been able to live in place which no longer require us to be at the place of work.
2. In the areas mentioned above many people live there surrounded with their fancy gates and their big walls for keeping people out – but all the pushing of people into small spaces in the U.K. has now created social unrest and is not a recipe for a society that calls itself a democracy.
3. The issues regarding lack of housing has led to huge mental health problems, brick walls for a future for many have caused an upsurge and epidemic in drug related crimes and behaviour.
4. I come from an inner city area and I had to leave the city there were no opportunities and nothing in my vision could see any future there- this is why I am a proponent of Feng Shui because I know that environments determine the kind of aspirations or possibilities you could imagine for yourself.
5. It is a reason why people invest in private education alone because the environments in which the children are educated are immediately uplifting and elevating-there is nothing more soulless than being surrounded by concrete all day.

Our world right now is changing so fast that we can hardly keep up. We are connected in ways that nobody ever imagined. However, sometimes, we feel left out, disconnected and alone.

We’ve been clearing our space and cleaning our whole place to get rid of stress and bad energy. But sometimes we wonder why we still feel less energized.

7 Steps To Healthier Living

We may not know this but in feng shui, when we live a life by watching, typing, reading, and texting, we have too much of the metal energy. This causes imbalance and affects our health. Feeling of disconnection, out of control, trapped, numb, loneliness and headache are some of its symptoms.

Follow these simple steps to get rid of these feelings and be happy.

1. Have some gadget-free time. It may be a day or even for just a few hours. Unplug and turn off your electronic devices and enjoy the silence of your home.

2. Be with mother nature. Go to the park or some quiet place where there are lots of trees. Inhale and feel the freshness of the air.

3. Use the power of stones and crystals. They were already being used since the ancient times. They help release any tension that you feel within and around you.

4. Aromatherapy is a powerful tool that you can also use. Use the scents of either cedarwood, frankincense, lavender or sandalwood. Their scents relaxes your body and calm your mind.

5. Display ceramics in your house. They’re good examples of the earth element that you can use in your space.

6. Use the power of colors. Brown, beige and other neutral colors that you can use. You can wear it or make it the color of your curtains.

7. Put plants in your space. They are live energy.
.
8. Consume root veggies such as carrots, beets, radish, turnip, and parsnip.

Try them in your space and see and feel the difference. Don’t be afraid to experiment. They’re easy to do, good for your health and will not cost you much money.

Bring In Good Feng Shui In Your Home In Minutes

The modern world that we live in made it possible for us to do different things in a short period of time. However, being able to multi-task at work drains our energy. It lessens the time that we spend taking care of our homes.

This makes us feel stressed, still tired and is too lazy to move. It, in turn, affects our mood, relationship, and even opportunities. All this affects our health.

In feng shui, our house should be arranged in a way that it brings in good energy in our space. A space filled with good energy brings in peace and harmony.

7 Steps To Healthier Living

Try these easy steps to create a good feng shui home in minutes:

1, Make sure that your home has sufficient lighting. Dark spaces have a negative impact on one’s mood while light uplifts and lightens the mood.

Christmas is coming and we hear a lot about love, joy, peace, and happiness. We were taught as a child that it is a happy season, a time to be merry. But most of the time, we end up going home to a lonely, troubled house.

In feng shui, happiness and clutter can never be on the same side. When your space is in disarray, you’ll feel miserable No matter how big or grand the house is, if your space is filled with bad energy then you’ll never be truly happy.

Inside Out Feng Shui

Below are simple tips on how to make our house a happy home.

1. Bring in good and fresh energy into your home. Flowers, indoor plants, and fresh fruits are a good source of live energy. Fruits symbolize wealth and plants are good air purifiers.

2. Refrain from bringing in television and gadgets into your bedroom. Your bedroom is a place for rest. Gadgets keep you from sleeping. When you have less sleep, you will feel grumpy and you get irritated easily.

The Easy Steps In Creating A Feng Shui Bathroom

A bathroom is an important part of the house. It’s a part of our home where we do our personal hygiene activities.

A good feng shui bathroom can help you create a good place for renewal and release all the unwanted things in your life.

De-clutter In 7 Easy Steps

3. Pay close attention to your lighting. Lightings symbolizes fire energy. They represent the fire in you. Your dreams, desire, and ambition. Most of the time, we take them for granted. They collect dust. Make your room brighter by dusting your lighting or change it to higher wattage.

4. Say goodbye to your unused cosmetics and toiletries. We take so much effort in clearing our bedroom, living room and kitchen that we forget to clean our bathroom. Get rid of expired products because they are considered as clutter.

Yesterday I was invited into a special space one that I had not been in before.  I understood the principles of negative and positive ions which is why it is so important to have trees and nature around us when so many of our everyday lifestyle gadgets exude an energy that is full of positive ions.  That is hairdryers, toasters, central heating systems.

I moved into a new property 2012 – it was an amazing apartment so much so that when I joined Airbnb I was inundated with requests to stay there.  The apartment was renovated to a high spec – I had all the mod cons – did as I was told by my project manager but it wasn’t until living in the place I realise that the central heating combined with the double glazed windows meant no fresh air was coming in or out.  Yes one can open the windows but I realised for the first time that I was being affected by coughs and wheezing that I had never encountered before.

The air was so dry I could hear it in my voice.  So having a negative ioniser is a must in these kinds of environments as well as either a water fountain or even just bowls of water around the radiator.

So, back to my special space above.  I heard about the salt caves and decided to review my experience.  The whole idea of the salt caves is to sit in them for one hour and allow the negative ions of the salt to clear out the nasal passages and balance out the over powering dryness created by how we live our lives today surrounded in such dry central heating systems that no wonder people suffer from asthma, continuous colds and flu.

I went into the room where it was explained salt was coming out through a machine but in a very fine way that it was not so visible.  Within minutes of sitting on one of the chairs above you could smell the air of salt and feel and taste it on your skin.

In this room were other people there was an agreed silence not to use any technology – fantastic – and nobody spoke.  I sat there for an hour and it was so relaxing – yes you can read if you want but I had no desire to.

Whilst the room was white with sand – explained it gave the impression it was salt – but the salt really was the stuff in the atmosphere – the lighting was at a level that created a warmth.  It was almost like being given permission to zone out of this chaotic world and agree to sit in a silence that recharged one’s batteries.

It reminded me of the room idea of Mr Selfridge for his employees creating a silent room where they could rest their minds and not have to speak and be away from the chaos of the cash registers.  Even though the salt cave is not about the rest or the silence but about salt absorption it had a double function which served the customer very well.

The Feng Shui as in the balance in the room was great as it afforded us all time off the carousel of life and the energy in the room was amazing.

For those who like to experience this first hand themselves pop over to Duke Street, Liverpool  UK and book themselves a slot and for the rest of the world readers find yourself the nearest salt cave near you or why not start one of your own.

Spaces, places and caves create an energy that induces relaxation and health benefits and this one I visited certainly met that description.  Take care of yourself, take care of your health because truly that is your true wealth and if you want to know more about what I do pop over to www.wealthyspaces.com

It’s sometimes called a lounge room or sitting room, but most people call it a living room. It is meant for relaxing and socializing.

In feng shui, the living room is considered as one of the most vulnerable parts of a home because it’s the first place a person goes into once they get inside the house. This is the same for the energy.

When people enter our space, they bring in and leave their energies. These energies will be staying in our space and affects our relationship, health, and wealth.

Below are the simple tips on how to turn your space into a feng shui living room.

1. Free your living room from clutter. A clean space is a home to good energy.

2. Organize your room. By putting your things into its proper spot, you let the good energy flow directly to your space.

3. Make sure that you have a healthy living space by having proper ventilation. Open the windows to let the sunshine in and use indoor plants so that you’ll have a breathable space.

4. Choose carefully the colors of your walls and curtains. Colors make the room cleaner, brighter and bigger. It makes you feel calmer and more relaxed.

5. Bring in the best feng shui energy of your room by knowing first the bagua area of your home. This will help you know which of the element you need to support.

6. Consider different shapes in decorating your room. Aside from adding character to your room, each shape has a corresponding feng shui element.

7. Feng shui is about the balance of the five elements. Make sure to bring in the feng shui element colors as well. Do not concentrate on one or two colors.

8. Be aware of the sharp edges. Arrange your objects carefully so that the shard edges of your furniture is not pointing to your seating area.

Your living room should be welcoming and relaxing. Always remember that the place should be a recreation and bonding place for the whole family. Sacrificing your family’s happiness for the sake of the room’s beauty is bad feng shui.
