A Family Home History Seen Thru the Lens of Compass School Feng Shui
Every individual and culture is deeply influenced by the structures they inhabit to live and work in. A history of the world which tracks the effects of indigenous
architecture design – from the individual dwelling to community and nation planning – and all these influences over time would describe most of the scope of human experiences
Structuring water is one of the very best influences that can be brought to a property. It provides healthy water for people, pets and plants, and also helps the upkeep of the property overall.
The feng shui of a home has a big influence on our children. Although the emphasis in a child’s life is different than that of an adult, children benefit from all the same principles that help to create health and harmony for adults.
Sleep is central to health and balance in every part of life. There are many ways to use Feng Shui to improve sleep quality, but it’s worth paying attention to one particular way to improve your sleep environment which is usually missed: removing items made from metal from the bedroom.
Selling a house and moving involves many dimensions that are both financial and personal. It makes sense to consider several different points of view to create and apply a strategy for a successful sale. Realtors, property stagers and various assessors generally cover the basics of a building sale effectively, and yet there are often homes that sit on the market for some time. Feng Shui includes a broad spectrum of tools that have been used successfully to sell many properties.
This is not about what we usually think of as sacred sites or power places, those singular spots on the planet where pyramids, You-Are-here-300x199pilgrimage routes and healing waters are found. This is an invitation to look at “sacred” from a very different angle of vision: the sacred life of every person, every day and in every place, thru the reflective lens of feng shui.
An important practice to maintain healthy energy in bathrooms is to keep the toilet lid down. Is this a feng shui cliche, or is there truth behind this?
In the world of interior design there are so many concepts and trends, it’s all too easy to get lost in someone else’s idea of the best way to create an interior. How does one choose what will create a home that really feels like home?
entrance (noun):
An opening, such as a door, passage, or gate, that allows access to a place.
an act or instance of going or coming in
the coming of an actor or performer onto a stage
the right, means, or opportunity to enter somewhere or be a member of an institution, society, or other body
“De-clutter, expand, de-clutter, expand, de-clutter, expand …”, these were the words used by a friend in a conversation we had a few days ago about how we move forward authentically in our lives. The “de-clutter, expand” notion captured my attention because it describes so much of the cycles in life, and a lot of what really defines the experience of living from one phase to the next.
Throughout our day from when our feet first touch the floor in the morning, until we climb into bed at night, we move from one place to another along various well-worn pathways throughout our homes and where we work. The degree of ease of moving from Point A to Point B adds to physical and also psychological ease of getting where we want to go to.
Water is regarded as the most powerful element of all in Feng Shui, more than Fire, Earth, Metal or Wood. Most of the information about water in Feng Shui lore relates to placement of water features, how water might be flowing into or away from property, and the effects of underground water.
At the beginning of a feng shui assessment, or an annual update, I like to ask people, “What do you want? What do you want feng shui to support for you?”
What I’ve observed after working with many different homes is that the feeling of what is placed at the center, or how the center area is treated, sends out a ripple effect to the rest of the entire home.
