The Banana Cure
Feng Shui ‘shouldn’t’ be weird or abrasive; it should help your space flow with grace and harmony. There is no need be uncomfortable with a ‘cure’ or correction to shift energy in your space. It’s easy to solve issues through logic, common sense and instinct when you take the time to solve the problem.
Follow Your Natural Instincts:
~ If you are cold, put on a sweater.
~ If you are tired, take a nap.

The word ‘clutter’ has had a bad wrap over the years! Are we a little overwhelmed stuck in the house these days?
Let’s talk about day-to-day living: Life is NOT clutter!
We KNOW that ‘real people’ don’t live in a glamourous Staged house, ready-to-entertain each day, right?
We know that ‘living’= making a mess sometimes: Life is for the living!
Let us separate actual ‘clutter’ and the ‘mess’ we make.
The ‘mess’ is always about living: garbage and recycling to…
Magic 8: Jewelry Can Work for You.
(This post is inspired by a question from last month to Ask Kathryn.)
Q: Kathryn, I’m wondering what to do about all my jewelry sitting in boxes. I’m done working and much of these are so nice, I hate to part with them. Any suggestions? ~ Monica Hightower

Are you seething at the first traffic light? Trying to figure out how to cope with issues at work? Or, feeling guilty; thinking you should be doing something else with your life?
With our crazy insane pace we have right now on the planet, we are not paying attention to stress-triggers. We are all moving too fast! In fact, there are too many ‘windows’ open right now!
Stress and stress related issues are on the rise. Instead of popping a…
Feng Shui works with energy in all people, things and in the environment. Being conscious of what is going on around you is imperative as all-things can affect one’s well-being.
Arranging your space to ‘work for you’ does work!
Feng Shui uses many tools to make change in an environment. Some people explain this as manipulation. Agreed! The trick is to use ‘manipulation’ for good intentions; the motivation is self-care.
The tools used in Feng Shui when we ‘cure’…
Almost every morning, I ring my singing bell. Actually, I have three singing bowls. One is a high-pitched one to help clear and reset an area. Another, a low pitched one for cultivating calmness, and a third that has ‘the looks’, but doesn’t resonate like I want. So, perhaps I should move that one along …
Like many others, I am spending too much time at home these days, isolated from my connections and knowing that no one is coming…
Working in your PJ’s may be fine for some, but I have to ask; Are you REALLY dedicated to the success of your day?
Solo Entrepreneurs CAN have it all, and yet, many of us struggle working alone; and being alone too much in our journey. Starting out in your business, can FEEL like a lot of busyness, without productivity. Without seeing results regularly, it is easy to slip into a ‘wait-and-see’ mode, or even ‘take the day off’.

Good or bad, many habits are subconscious and can be perceived as ‘quirks’ or ‘eccentricities’ in our personality. Others involve routine tasks, and go unnoticed. Some habits are developed by mimicking others. And others, we adapt consciously in order to fit with societal norms and work procedures:
Self-care when daily grooming and bathing.
Safety habits when cooking, driving and looking both ways before crossing the street.
Customs and protocols such as the habit of shaking hands.
Some habits can be…
This condo had been on the market for 6 weeks with one price reduction… excited to make it have more flow and have a little more overall appeal… did a fantastic job of rearranging furniture and re-hanging art. The home flows so much better now and looks way more spacious… this staging will attract the right buyer!
