10 Feng Shui Tips for a Better Life
Ever reminisced about the best year of your life, and wondered why everything came together for you? It could be Feng Shui.
Simply put, Feng Shui is about creating a harmonious environment. It’s the ancient Chinese Science and Art of placement, intended to improve our health, harmony, longevity, career, and wealth.
Pronounced, “Fung Shway”, it was a jealously guarded secret for thousands of years. Now, the benefits of Feng Shui can be enjoyed by anyone. In fact, Feng Shui is a part of everyday life for many Australian businesses, homeowners, decorators, and architects.
The key is energy (or Qi “Chee”).
Ten quick tips that can improve the flow, transformation, and containment of Qi in your life:
1) Remove shoes before entering a home. Don’t take your problems into your home with you.
2) Cook at least one meal a day and eat at the table as a family.
3) Never have knives on show – even in a block.
4) Always sit or stand facing the door (or its reflection).
5) Keep the toilet lid down and the bathroom and laundry doors closed.
6) Don't sleep under white blankets or doonas.
7) Don't sleep with your feet facing the bedroom door.
8) Don't sleep next to the wall that has the meter box on it.
9) If your front door is in line with a tree or the door of the house opposite, place a Ba Gua mirror above the outside of the door.
10) Never have a Ba Gua mirror in the house. They are far too powerful.
It’s no coincidence that some of these tips are just common sense. You’ve probably been practicing Feng Shui for years without even knowing it!
