Unleash Your Creative Drive Through Feng Shui

Being sheltered in place has unleashed people’s creativity and the way they navigate through life.

Did you know that by applying some easy Feng Shui principles to your home can give you the spark of motivation and creativity you need?  Your space is more than happy to help you create the life that you want; all you need to do is shift the energy and visualize. What a wonderful opportunity we have during this down time.

Use the acronym DRVN to spark the drive within you.

Here are 4 easy ways your home can help you energize you and your creativity:

1) Declutter:  Piles of old, forgotten, unused items cluttering your home will stifle your creativity. The more clutter, the less creative you could be.  Make decisions about your things and clear them out, with the intention that new energy, creative ideas and opportunities will come your way.

2) Redecorate a room or just rearrange some items in your home; this changes the perception of your space. When you look at things differently; your brain registers the new patterns in your environment and can set up new patterns in your thinking. I call this “shaking up the Ch’i.”

3) Visualize yourself in a creative endeavor. Write, state, or picture yourself succeeding in a creative pursuit as if it is already happening. For example, “I have completed my first novel”, or “I am thoroughly enjoying my flower arranging class.”

4) Get in touch with nature:  When in a creative slump seek the out of doors; go on a hike, work in your garden, enjoy a picnic, or just bring fresh flowers into your home.   By surrounding yourself with nature you relax, rejuvenate and open up channels to inspiration.

Think of the acronym – DRVN, (Driven) when you:
