Dream Big, Start Small, A Feng Shui Meditation To Create A Break Through Year

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.”
Martha Graham

Your expression is unique and the world needs it.
If you’ve have felt held back, dream big and break through this year. All it takes is 15 minutes. Clear your heart with a Feng Shui meditation and your mind will let go of what steals your passion. Courage will come easily to unshackle the trap of self doubt, release outmoded ideas and see through imposed limitations. Feng Shui meditation takes the blinders off, your heart will feel purified and you will align with your unique expression. With daily practice hidden talents reveal themselves: your wisdom unfurls, your whimsey blossoms and your imagination sets your creativity on fire. Your first thought becomes your best thought as you call upon your intuitive knowing to answer personal problems. Your heart will recalibrate and radiate Love. Feng Shui Meditation is like polishing the mirror, reflecting both your outer brilliance and the mystical, subtle world that empowers you moment by moment. 

Your business is to keep the channel open.
Illness, unhappiness, anxiety, insecurity, anger and money trouble are all disconnects. You are capable of so much more. You have the talent, the intellect and the hutzpah to shed the inner critic and shift your focus to what is right, good and special about you. As Martha said,“…because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it.”

You begin by starting small.
Buddha was asked, “What have you gained from meditation?” He replied, “Nothing! However, Buddha said, let me tell you what I lost: Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Insecurity, Fear of Old Age and Death.” Setting aside 15 minutes a day to meditate will cleanse you of your worries and shed your doubts. You will recognize what is true for you, have no doubt what your purpose is and life becomes easier.

You don’t have to be Buddha to do this.
You only need to borrow her Ch’i to help you open your heart to greater possibilities. The Astral Body Meditation is a Feng Shui Meditation to create a break through year. It is one of H. H. “Professor” Lin’s most profound. It is lovingly offered to you. This meditation can be used to heal yourself physically and emotionally. It will relax both the mind and body, releasing you from worry. It will help you deal with worldly matters with wisdom and flexibility. Extraordinary things happen when you close your eyes.

When Home Improvement Becomes Soul Improvement.

“We hammer wood for a house but it is the inner space that makes it livable.” –Tao Te Ching

Can you fix the unfixable? Beyond the 9 to 5, beyond the soaring career climb, beyond the A lists and A’s on English tests, beyond the cancer scare, beyond is where your heart dares to find happiness. Has it become increasingly difficult to feel your feet upon the ground? What influences you in your surround? Are the things that vie for your attention–forgotten birthday wishes, a sink full of dirty dishes, rushing after work to your child’s soccer game, text messages left unanswered–keep you tethered to a frenzy when really you would rather follow your whimsy? Time to seek another way; it only gets better with Feng Shui.

Your story is in the details.
“My partner and I feel more in sync; we work better together.” “(I) rediscovered stability, confidence and joy in my environment and in my life.” “I’m finally feeling like everything is on track with us! I am a true believer in Feng Shui from all the good things that have happened in my life.” Each one of these individuals came to me in despair. They could not fathom how to fix what they thought was unfixable. Little did they know it was right in the (design) details of their home. It was beyond their comprehension that by changing a design feature they would experience a miraculous change too. Hearing about the “unseen”, learning how architectural features affected their thought processes, influenced their emotions, impacted their physical health, helped them connect to the truth and influence of Ch’i and feel their own life force mirror it inside. Even if they didn’t comprehend how a cure could possibly work, they embraced why to implement the home improvement cures, why to perform the ceremonies, why to say the intentions, why to imagine the visualizations. What they understood was these were lifelines to their well being, these ritual processes were a celebration for their soul.

What my clients learned. Implementing the transcendental concept of the Yin and Yang is the only way real change takes root in our lives. If you are missing your soul connection, start with the Yin, known as the “unseen”. It exists in every situation and its influence is powerful. H.H.“Professor” Lin Yun in his ever present wisdom would share: “we may not see a tornado developing (yin), but we do see the destruction (yang). We may see political demonstrations, murder or hijackings (yang), but we don’t see the underlying intrigue of a political coup (yin). We can see a wind chime or crystal (yang), but we cannot see the Three Secrets (yin). We may see someone fired (yang), but we must also see that his or her firing can affect the next “owner” of the job (yin).” (courtesy Katherine Metz). Now that you know its effect, isn’t time to tune in and turn things right side up?

Your house is talking. Are you pulling your hair out with home improvement projects (a split stairway at the entrance will cause all life situations to spin out of control)? Have you scheduled an unexpected surgery (seeing the stove from a door that leads to the outside)? Are you arguing with your partner (many doors opening into a small space?). Do you wake up tired (contrary door)? Or angry (biting doors)? Your house is talking. Start with your bed, desk and stove, place them in command position. Read my March Blog, “Do You Feel Secure In Your Home?” then tour your home for the remaining details and make corrections. Remember this life is all you have.

Keep calm and carry on. You can do one thing that will make a difference. If you want more vitality, more love, more abundance, create peace in your household, even peace on the streets, implement one of the three color systems: the Five Element System, the six true words color system or the rainbow color system. Or use the color, green, because it is a peaceful color.

Here is a link to Floor Plans Matter, examples of common design details and how they affect occupants’ Ch’i. Perhaps you will recognize your home in one of this.  

Have a brilliant and beautiful October!
