We all have an energetic field around us. Chi-energy is unseen in our environment, but can be measured with sensitive tools searching for disruptions in energy patterns. Personal Energy Fields in humans and pets can be detected using the same dowsing tools used for geopathic stress.
Personal chi-energy is also invisible to the naked eye, and depending on our moods, can influence our family positive or negative.
This unseen energy can either blend into the family lifestyle, or cause…
Did I read this right? Can you learn to manage chaos?
Yes, if you can maintain a handle on your priorities!
I received a phone call last week from a middle-aged lady who was recently in a car accident. She is fortunate enough not to need require a wheelchair or multiple surgeries, but she is ‘off work’ for an extended length of time. She explains that she is ‘not doing anything, yet her life feels out of control’.
She…
The Littlest Buddha
The little guy is barely 3” high (7cm), solid jade and full of life! He was acquired on impulse.
I am a Christian, and yet I’ve explored many of the Buddhist philosophies within the study of feng shui. I had no intention of bringing a Buddha into my house, converting to Buddhism or starting a shrine. So, I’m a little reluctant to admit how much I am enjoying his company.
I was in a busy Jade Factory…
Bad feng shui: Is there such a thing?
Simply put: if anything is out-of-square, out-of-line, or in-the-way, it is bad feng shui. I hate using the word ‘bad’; but often, that is what it is, bad feng shui.
If a space feels good to you, then don’t worry. If it doesn’t feel good: look around and see if there is something you can change.
I’m happy when people are empowered to make a change! I think it is great when…
Focus on Your Foundation by Kathryn Wilking
(Previously released in the January 2015 edition of The Art of Balance.)
So, since 2015 will be about grounding and getting back to basics, what is your key focus or purpose this year? If you had to choose one thing to really focus on, what would that be?
How do we make goals each year, make predictions for growth
and learn to recognize successes?
Start with what is important to YOU:
Children: their…
Ask Kathryn: A boy who won’t sleep in his bedroom.
Q: Kathryn, my 6 yr old son just refuses to sleep in his own room. Last fall, we repainted his room and bought new, fun sheets. I read an article about not decorating with super heroes and heavy energy. We hung a beautiful mirror in his room. He still won’t sleep in his room, and he hates the mirror. Can feng shui help here?
A: Absolutely! First of all, you…
Tam’s Makeover by Kathryn Wilking
Just after the Vietnam War, a young 19 yr old girl decides to set up a pub near China Beach to provide for herself and infant child.
Tam was pleased to be chosen to cook for the American’s during the war. She learned to speak English, learned to cook American style hamburgers and rode with the soldiers in the massive convoys that curved through the mountains. An amazing story! When opportunity arose, she would…
Someone sleeping …in my Office?
There seems to be a problem in many homes: one room short! Many families are trying to accommodate a guest room, TV room, and a home office all in one space.
A large percentage of families are spread out as jobs and opportunities send them out to the four corners of the earth. And when the extended family comes to visit, well, they need a place to sleep!
So, there goes the office!
If…
A Healthy Boost is Found in the Heart of Your Home!
Let’s face it; it is cold and flu season!
Where to turn and what to do, to strengthen our bodies against germs and virus’?
In feng shui, the Health Area is located in the center of your room, or your home. Because a person’s health is a central nucleus to their entire life, this does make sense. In some cases, access to this Health area can be blocked…
Bringing Heritage Art Back, to the Future
By Kathryn Wilking
Art work and furnishings are important as they help set the tone for your business. If your business resists budgeting for furnishings and décor, you may be missing an opportunity to make a connection with your clients. Think of the old stereotype of a dentist’s office; sterile and uncomfortable with an assortment of out-dated magazines. You need to do better. If it is ‘normal’ to have clients waiting in your…
