Space Cleansing the Old Fashioned Way....

Space cleansing is a very unnoticed, under valued procedure which costs much to peoples' peace of 

mind, wealth and wellbeing.  How so?

Well think of all the places you have walked into in your life; church, court of law, maybe a prison, 

hospital, huge shopping malls and what is it you notice?  Most often or not your energy is often 

zapped - that's right all the feelings, thoughts exuding from people in states of being that arent too

great on the good feel factor and then when you walk away you wonder why?

I have been in over 1000 homes and I began to notice this right away.  But long before I had my job 

as a community worker at a very young age I was acutely aware of how one room in the house just 

did not feel right-it did not have any light, love or peace in it and something deeply disturbing was 

present.

Other times as a child I played in derelict houses and got an acute sense once again of the people who

had lived there and the feeling that summed up the whole environment.  Your know yourself when 

you go to different environments you can sense how they make you feel; they dont have to be rich or 

poor environments necessarily; bad things happen in wealthy areas; good things happen in abject 

poverty and vice versa.

If you look at all the ancient civilisations they would always cleanse their space before entering

their building or residence or even before building any foundations at all the land would be spoken

to and addressed in a smoke ceremony.

Have things changed much?  Well yes they have because people dont get it - if they dont cleanse 

away their old energies where conflicts, arguements and fractures have occurred that space is left 

hanging with those feelings absorbed into the atmosphere.

When I was growing up in a street it was a very common sight to see the old ladies scrubbing away at 

their front paths.  Everybody would do it - it was not only a sign of cleanliness but symbolically it 

seemed to indicate a letting go of the old and making way for new energies.  The entrance to a 

dwelling has always been given additional nurturance as its when you first see your home; its where 

you return to each day; it's the feel good factor summed up in one glance.

Some great tips to dispel unwanted chi at the front of your home is to grow rosemary in plant pots at 

the door.  Rosemary has always been used throughout time as a means of dispelling bad vibes and 

unwanted feelings and where better place to situate that is at the front door.

If this is something that resonates with you drop by the website and pick up your own space-clearing 

kit; 4 choices to decide from.  Good to make space for the great things in your life rather than living 

with the old patterns of the past.

What is Clutter?

 FENG SHUI FOR HEALTH

 There is often a common denominator to peoples’ poor health and chronic ailments and that is their environment. In this article I’m talking about how the subtle almost invisible aspects of peoples homes & offices influence peoples’ general health. I would also like to offer an opportunity for the reader to shift their environmental energy for the better so they can enjoy a sense of peace, inspiration, and tranquility. As a Feng Shui consultant there is often an invisible world within our environments that leads to stress, poor health and anxiety. Lets look at one area I have managed to locate that is affecting peoples’ everyday health.

 Clutter whether its paper, or accumulation of goods from the past it usually is known as the one thing; that difficulty of letting go; especially of the past. I once met a client he could not more in any four directions in his wheelchair because he had literally had imprisoned himself. Have you ever thought that you cannot think clearly because there is too much going around and around in your head. Yes, possibly because it is cluttered with many different kinds of thoughts. To reiterate what I have said in the introduction; whatever is inside of you is reflected on the outside and vice-versa. The clutter of your environment stops you from moving and flowing easily through your home, work or place. Obstructions that are obvious (like a bag or shoes in the way) can clearly cause accidents.

But sometimes these obstructions in our homes and lives are not always that obvious. They can be far more subtle to the point that we are really not that aware that they exist. Sometimes using the analogy of acupuncture helps to illustrate the principles of energy being able to flow freely in and around your home. Like the blood and lymphatic system circulating around our body, it is important to keep the arteries and veins clear from any obstructions. This enables the oxygen to be transported to all regions of the body and likewise transport the toxins back to where they need to leave the body. It is only when it is too late that we realize the clotting or clogging of this circulation system can result in disease and death. Likewise, if we have too much surrounding us in environments it is almost impossible to breathe, move freely, adapt and hence we become restricted, rigid and ultimately frozen both physically, mentally and emotionally.

 The removal of blockages within your home of clutter, hoarded materials burdened with memories long gone, items no longer functional and yet you hang on, you hang on, you hang on…Yes, this is the problem. It is so hard to let go within and without. But like anything, start gradually and locate those things you find easiest to let go of initially and then slowly work your way towards those items that are difficult to relinquish. It does not have to be wasted as we can see the huge popularity of charity shops or sales on ebay. I am not suggesting getting rid of sentimental items but you may wish to consider the more you hold onto things of the past the less room and space there is for new things to come in to the now and future. We all have clutter and we are unable to dispense with it overnight. That is why it is a process, which you remind yourself to do frequently allowing more space into your life to manoeuvre into areas you never dreamt you would go.

 It is not necessarily just about being neat. People who do not have any obvious disarray on the outside can often disguise their erratic behaviour/way of thinking by throwing all kinds into cupboards or stuffing things into drawers. Is this you? People become frozen emotionally & mentally by what surrounds them. When it becomes too chaotic our natural ability to stay calm & retreat is compromised; this is evident in some of the examples of lethargy, fatigue and even as bad as chronic fatigue syndrome. I’ve had other people tell me they have food in the freezer which is 7 years old!! Be aware of how you feel as you bag up those old memories; the unnecessary items you have stored for yourself and others and let go of them. It is often accompanied with a mild loss but also a feeling of letting go and being light within you. It is not difficult to accrue clutter in this age of mass consumption and junk mail. All I can say is try it for yourself and see what happens! Good Luck!

Environments Dictate the Context, Quality and Vintage

This is an amazing trip down memory lane in Interlude, Western Yorkshire, U.K. where you can get to feel and be in a place of the past with charm, elegance and a grate feeling of class. Sara,the entrepreneur, who had watched many episodes of Poirot! gained insight on how to create the right atmosphere of the vintage tearooms of the 20-30's - consideration for the decoration, orientation, the attention to detail of the cups and saucers, use of books to read at the table. Dont forget there was no mobile phones then - people talked to each other around a table, they used cutlery and noticed where they were and how they felt. They got dressed up to go to tearooms and enjoy their time together. This is a place not to be missed to realise the power of our environments and the effect they subtly and constantly have upon us.
