Feng Shui – A Calm Home

In this day in age, we are busy, busy, busy with kids, work and the family as a whole and it is sometimes difficult to bring our positive energy through because it takes more time. And who has that! We’d like to suggest a simple and meaningful solution to this troublesome setback. The Ancient Chinese have used Feng Shui (pronounced FUNG-schway) for thousands of years to explore their surroundings to create harmonious energy. The goal of Feng Shui is to produce and enhance space that is favorable in bringing the flow of good energy leaving you to feel more energetic, creative and balanced. Thereby, increasing the potential for social and financial success and personal harmony. Many books are available to help you with ideas on how to Feng Shui your home. Here are a couple of ideas:

  • People tend to feel uncomfortable--even unsafe--when their view is blocked, so be sure all of the seats in a room allow guests to see who is coming and going.

  • Clutter is an obstruction in life force (or ch’i), so find a place for everything to feel more peace in your rooms.

  • Bring more life into your family room and living areas with mirrors or crystals.
