Creating Peace Begins At Home

Posted on by
“If I could bring relief to your stress filled days, the blessing it creates would be shared by all.” 
Stress is an all too familiar feeling. A feeling that weighs upon our hearts and feels impossible to shake. However, neur0-scientist, Dr. Joe Dispenza, purports suffering caused by stress is not a natural condition. Rather it’s an altered state. Happiness, joy and enthusiasm are our natural states of being. So the question arises, can there be a reprieve from stress? Then what might that antidote be? In my conversations with clients the unspoken word in their hearts is peace. Peace is the antidote. Peace create the gateway ro wholeness. It is the balm that calms the minds and invites hope to the table.

Invoking peace through Feng Shui. If you’ve been shaken by recent world catastrophes; shocked by devastating actions that continue to spin out of control, begin with the energy in your home. It is your sanctuary and with the help of Feng Shui design you may begin to create a haven that has a positive influence on your family, with your neighbors and in the world.

Creating peace takes many forms. Ones you would never suspect. Creating peace has many levels and outreach: creating it in your life, world peace, in a household, amongst employees or peace on the streets in places where there is little peace. I composed an out-of-the-ordinary list to support you and those you love.

• Infusing a space with one of the three color systems raises it to a higher vibration for color can bring a listless room to life; a depressed person hope; it can make a sanctuary out of a stark environment. Color not only creates beauty but also peace. You could use the Five Element System (black, green, red, yellow white in this sequence), the Six True Words color system (white, red, yellow, green, blue, black in this order) or the rainbow color system (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple. This spectrum represents the endocrine system and the chakras – our link to the cosmos). Or use the color, green, because it is a peaceful color.

• Planting bamboo in your yard, in your community or in a place where there has been flooding or damage to the environment revitalizes the Ch’i. We need Ch”i to feel at peace. Bamboo, being both hollow and soft inside, symbolizes humility. “Hollow” in Chinese means “humble”. The Chinese would watch bamboo bow in the wind believing it had supernatural qualities that could soften a human’s heart.

• Imaging Quan Yin Shi Yin Pusa, the Goddess of Mercy, She Who Hears The Cries. Whether a painting or a statue, her presence will bring waves of peace wherever she rests.

• Hanging the 12 Chinese Zodiac Animals in your home can bring harmony into your space. Begin at the root of relationships. Go to the far right corner of your home. There you will find the Relationship gua. Placing the 12 Chinese Zodiac Animals here will bring harmony to your  relationships, creating peace in your life.

• Facing a wall while you stand at the stove could blind sight you or you may become easily frightened diminishing your peace of mind. When you don’t have command of the Ch’i, you could be taken advantaged of. Place a mirror so you see your image while you are facing the stove.

• The eight trigrams were created as a representation of the ten thousand things in the universe. Yet, they still cannot cover everything. So, what is not covered, is in the center. Go to the center to find what you cannot find elsewhere. Go to the center to be “totally covered”, go to the center to create peace. Adjust the center.

A special note about performing Black Sect Feng Shu cures: envision that you are at the juncture between heaven and earth and thus will receive universal Ch’i to help you overcome all your obstacles.

May peace be with you.

Feng Shui Cures “I Have Nothing To Wear!”

Posted on by

I bet you have a few all time favorites from your closet that make you feel super comfortable, right? Yet they aren’t your “go-to” kick-ass ensembles when you have an important engagement. Nor when you’ve received a quick phone call for an interview or a spontaneous dinner date, same ole, same ole, won’t do. You want an outfit that makes you feel put together, dynamic and you don’t want to purchase something new. Step out of panic, you are in luck! You can take those favorite black pants or little black dress and go “3 for 3” with the Five Element Colors. These colors may be placed in specific sequences to balance your Ch’i, give you confidence and help you feel your best. Yes! Color plays a huge role in how you look and feel. And that’s the secret you can pull out of your closet in a moment’s notice.

The Five Element Theory derives from Chinese cosmology. Each element shares a corresponding color. Water is black, Wood is green, Fire is red, Earth is yellow and Metal is white. There are two cycles and they either feed or control the other. In the Constructive Cycle an element feeds the next element. You must choose at least three colors to make the cycle work. A CC sequence is: water (black) feeds wood (green) and wood (green) feeds fire (red). Begin at your shoes or feet and work upwards to your head. Feeling a little tired when you get up? You can rely on this sequence to brighten your mood, strengthen your Ch’i and support your mental capacity. The Containing Cycle controls or destroys an element. For example: wood (green) chokes earth (yellow) and earth (yellow) absorbs water (black). Why use this sequence? Because there are times when life is coming at you fast and you need to feel stable. Or if you have experienced a trauma and you want more security. Begin at your head or throat and work down to your shoes.

Now that you have a bit of Five Element savvy you will be spot on for an important presentation and brilliant when negotiating a transaction. And as you know a picture is worth a thousand words. I am delighted to share two, one minute videos for when those words fly uncontrollably out of your throat,  “I have nothing to wear!”
