Interested in Feng Shui? Here is a Step by Step Guide

There is really no mystery to Feng Shui. It’s an ancient Chinese art that allows us to create harmony and balance through our environment. This harmony and balance lend support to our lives. When our lives are supported through our environment it’s much easier to achieve the things we want such as well being, love and happiness.



A trained Feng Shui practitioner can help you begin this valuable journey and lead you to the benefits of Feng Shui by following a few easy steps:





Your Step By Step Guide to Positive Feng Shui:

1) Map out your home using the Bagua

2) Do a self-evaluation of your needs (more love, health, prosperity, career etc.)

3) Locate that area of the Bagua in your home

4) Clean and declutter that area

5) Enhance using the recommendations for each of the Bagua areas

6) Anchor if the area is missing

7) State or write your affirmations and begin reaping the rewards

8) Learn  to practice Inner Feng Shui



This practice is an ongoing lifestyle. Once you learn how, you can use your “Feng Shui Eyes” to continue this journey forever.

How Feng Shui Can Help You Through Unexpected Change

There are three principles in Feng Shui:

1) Everything is alive.
2) Everything is connected.
3) Everything is constantly changing.

The third principle can be the most challenging because sometimes change comes unexpectedly and is not always positive. 

With the right mental attitude we can completely reframe the way we experience challenges, and can come to view them as some of our most valuable life experiences. You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens,  and you can use Feng Shui to support your energy, and in that  you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you. 




When our downstairs flooded a few years ago, it could have been a very stressful time. With Feng Shui, we took time to breathe, regroup, seek out support, gather resources and even laugh about it. Time has passed and we look back at that time as a learning experience.  We have taken time to declutter and redecorate, and we now love our new room.
