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…
REFRAME YOUR LIFE
Are you craving change these days? Many people feel stuck and unable to find their way out! For many more, there’s a milestone birthday coming up! Our kids continue to grow up and it’s SHOCKING HOW OLD THEY ARE!
As we grow, our homes need to evolve too! Our home life reveals a lot about us.
Is it time to regroup, reboot and reframe a few things?
What’s going on in your space?

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
A: Great Question, Monica. First, the obvious, sort aside any broken and damaged items from the ones you wish to keep. Some pieces may be…
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…
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’.

In today’s times, it is all about who holds the money!
In feng shui, money is just another tender to barter for goods and services.
Barter, in years past, was when someone brought in a boat load of fish; they would all be rich, as everyone would have enough to eat! Also, people living on farms would trade their chickens or eggs for another farmer’s produce. It was when people started to get paid in ‘cash money’ that changed…
The ‘cure’ to many of our problems can be solved through logic, common sense and instinct.
We all have great ‘problem solving skills’ inside, so let’s use them!
~ If you are cold, put on a sweater.
~ If you are tired, take a nap.
~ If you are coming down with a cold, you’ll eat chicken soup and get more rest.
~ If you have a headache or a stress-full day, many people turn to aspirin, alcohol or medication.…
10 Ways to Raise Chi- Energy in any Space
Does your space need a face lift? Or, perhaps a little sunshine?
CHI-ENERGY is part of your life force.
Chi-energy is apparent through the breeze coming in the windows, a gale-force in
a storm or the birth of a baby chick. It is alive, abundant and necessary for us to
live!
Some refer to this as a vibration or frequency; as everything has a life-force or a
vibration in order to…
The Royal ‘WE’
It is easy to fall into a routine when we are comfortable in a relationship.
I think that is part of the ‘beauty’ of a long term relationship.
We already know what to expect, how the chores are divided up, who is in charge of the garbage and who takes care of the laundry. But, after a while, resentment can set in. Someone else can be perceived to have a ‘better deal’ or your work schedule no…
We hired Kathryn to provide a Feng Shui consultation to improve the energy in our home, for all family members, and to improve our business which we operate from home. We did an extensive search online for all of the Feng Shui Consultants in the Vancouver area. We phoned several consultants and found that Kathryn was the best person for our needs.
She does some preliminary work prior to the actual in-home consultation and came very prepared.
We were impressed with her comprehensive knowledge… Read more
