Kitchen Clean-Up

Remember what I’m always saying, what’s closest to you in your environment impacts your life the most. Well, on that note, what is closest to your food is affecting it a lot as well. The state of your kitchen is the state of your health – and especially the state of your liver. And the liver is the main detoxifying organs in the body! So do your liver and your health a favor and clean that kitchen! Think about it. The food you eat which turns into your body is stored, cleaned and cooked in the kitchen. It is the …Read More

What Can I Do To Find A Job After I’ve Been Laid Off?

I often get questions about finding a job after being unexpectedly laid off. Well, without knowing ANYTHING about your home, the first thing that comes to my mind is – what happened in your environment before you were laid off? Was something changed that may have supported you getting laid off?  If you can think of something specific here, I’d go about trying to counterbalance that item, renovation, or thing that has changed. What if you can’t think of anything specific like that?  Then my guess on what is happening in your home is clutter. If things are stagnant – …Read More

Success Story – Working with what you have!

“Karen, My mom gave me a copy of your book after she attended one of your seminars. I finished law school last year, but the first and 3rd semesters were financially straining. The first semester my student loans were declined due to a couple of “derogatory” remarks on my credit report.  I had no money, no job, no food, no money for bills, and no money to even purchase my books.  My printer cartridge was out of ink and I could not even purchase one to get resumes out to get a job.  I sent in for a cosigner which …Read More

Feng Shui: Master Bedroom Art

Q: Can you please tell me the best type of art to put in a master bedroom please? And do directions play into it? Thank you kindly, Linda N. A: I will give some typical suggestions here, but remember, I usually work on people’s lives as opposed to just simply spouting “this is right and that is not” type of answers for people’s houses. So with that said, I am assuming that this master bedroom is for a healthy romantic couple, or a wanna-be-more-romantic couple (you have to start somewhere!) My advice is to choose art that: 1. Fits the …Read More

Give Money Away So You Can Have More

It’s tax time in the U.S. and people are e-mailing me a plenty about getting more cash! So, here are my most current ideas on abundance. I do have to say, the old “give to receive” plan is a good one. I have been tithing for quite some time now, and never before have I NOT worried about money like I have not during this time! It REALLY works! Tithing, if you don’t know, is giving 10% of your gross income away – some say, so whomever “feeds you spiritually.” Oprah gives 10% of all her income away. If she’s …Read More

Success Story: Getting Help with the Helpful People Box

I am really shocked.  I am doing a major cleaning/purging of stuff in my house and my idea was to Feng Shui each area as I went, but I got a little anxious and decided to start a Helpful People Box.  I put in the name of a friend I just couldn’t get a hold of and the name of my husband.  I had to – I was getting so frustrated with having to do everything by myself. Two days later, he did the dishes (3rd time all year), took out the trash, cooked dinner, went grocery shopping, and even …Read More

What does your house say about you?

OK. After looking at this picture, what kind of judgment did you make about the people who live there? Eccentric? Wacky? Fairytale/nursery rhyme lovers? So, by just taking a quick look at a home, you can very quickly come to some sort of snap conclusion about the people that live there, right? With that in mind, what conclusions do you think people make upon seeing where YOU live? As one who practices feng shui (that art of creating environments that consistently support  the goals and dreams of clients) I’m always amazed at what some people allow in their environments that …Read More

Feng Shui has brought me more work than I can handle!

How much do you really know about Feng Shui? Do you apply it to your life? Have you seen results? My New Years Resolution this year is to give you more! More content, more answers, more of whatever you need having to do with feng shui and healthy, happy living. To start, I thought we could tune into the life of a feng shui newbie and follow her journey as she moves her stuff to change her life. My business manager Sara quickly volunteered for the assignment when I told her this idea because she already is seeing great results …Read More

Is Taxidermy Considered Bad Feng Shui?

I understand how some people want to remember the big catch or big kill by creating a trophy for themselves and hanging it on the wall, but let’s break it down from a feng shui perspective and see how these kinds of things stack up energetically in the home: 1. Poor symbolism: By placing this symbol of a fish so high up on the wall, you are now living “below the fishes” which is not a natural pattern usually resulting in residents feeling depressed, stagnant, “underwater” or “can’t get their nose above water” or “drowning in debt”, etc. 2. Potentially …Read More

Feng Shui Your Personal Health Inventory

Since many seem to take personal inventories this time of year, why not get specific and take a personal HEALTH inventory and work it the feng shui way. If you have any condition that seems to be inherited through your genes, review the Family Gua (half way back on the left based on where you enter a home or room) of each room in the house. This is the wood element/green color gua so see if it has at least one of these items dominating the space. If it does not appear to be inherited, then concentrate on the Center …Read More
