“Where your attention goes – energy flows”
Creating Sacred Space is a conscious choice. It recognizes that everything you think, feel, experience, touch, say and do impacts all aspects of your life. Feng Shui provides a system that helps you to organize your physical environments. By putting your physical spaces in order, you also impact your inner landscape as well.
Feng Shui is translated as Wind and Water, two things in nature we require to sustain life. Wind being the air that we breathe and Water nourishes and sustains our body. Feng Shui examines the energy flow in your space and helps uncover where you might be metaphorically “bumping into obstacles” that may impact other areas of your life. Feng Shui helps you create environments that support you physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. The ultimate goal of Feng Shui is to create sacred space.
Everything in our world is made up of atoms; therefore everything vibrates and emits energy. Many of you have heard, “where your attention goes, energy flows”. So why not introduce concepts and principles that support your interaction with creating a reality that provides more joy, happiness, peace and tranquility. Feng Shui can be a catalyst for making these changes a reality in your life.
Feng Shui is based on five key principles.
- Everything is energy and everything is connected
- Your space reflects your life
- Clutter creates confusion and chaos
- Use nature as your model
- Your intention is the most important thing
When we create sacred space it means we are creating a place of honor and when we create places we honor we pay more attention to them. Taking the time to create sacred space is an investment in you. It says you are worth it!
Working with Feng Shui is easy. Most people begin by clearing some clutter. As you clear your clutter you begin to feel like a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. Eager to learn more, Feng Shui invites you to explore the other messages your space is reflecting back to you. Now the fun begins. You discover that colors have new meaning, you examine the colors you have chosen for your walls, you begin to pay attention to the colors you wear most frequently, all of a sudden shapes, textures, pictures and furniture are viewed with a new awareness.
One of the greatest gifts you receive as you begin to work with your space more consciously is the clarity you begin to experience in your life. You become happier, joyful; you experience more synchronicity and coincidences that make your life easier.
You begin to easily recognize when things are out of balance and you are no longer in a place of flow. If you become confused, disorganized, frustrated, moody, or unproductive, it’s a clear symptom that both your inner and outer environments need some attention.
When we create conscious spaces of honor they nourish, support and bless us. Enjoy your journey to accelerating your path to expanded awareness, personal growth and well-being by exploring new perspectives that might just change your life.
