The Summer Season And Feng Shui

Feng Shui Tips For Summer

Summer is already here. The temperature is getting hotter which makes our home an uncomfortable place.

In the old days, humans spend time ensuring that they live in harmony with nature. However, these days, most people seem disconnected from nature which in turn causes us to feel stuck.

Feng shui means wind and water. It's an ancient philosophy that teaches us about being in harmony within and around us.

In feng shui, the summer season belongs to the fire element. It is associated with the hot and yang energy. It brings creativity, drive, warmth, and self-confidence which means there's more energy. However, too much fire energy in us makes us feel irritable, restless or drained.

Summer is connected to the reputation and fame. In the Bagua map, the fame and reputation sector can be found at the back middle section of your office or home.

To bring balance to your place, rearranging your space will do. Adding yin in your space, which is the lighter and calmer energy will do.

Below are the summer tips that you can do if there's too much yang in your place:

1. Add your colours in your home like blue or purple.

2. Live plants are a must in every home. Live indoor plants keep the air and temperature down, helps reduce stress and increases your focus. Definitely, a vital thing that you need to make you feel relax.

3. Add the water element in your home by putting a water fountain in front of your home and make sure that it is flowing towards your house. This represents the energy of abundance moving in your direction.

4. The amethyst is great in cooling your home. It gets rid of the negative and stuck energy in your house.

These little changes can help you create a cooler and more balanced home this summer season.

To bring in the wood element in your home, you can use healthy plants, images of forests and wooden furniture.

In the productive cycle, the water strengthens the wood element and the wood element strengthens the fire element. Adding the water element allows you to have more wood energy while adding wood strengthens the fire element.

In the destructive side, the wood element weakens the earth and the metal element weakens the wood. Adding the metal can weaken the wood in your space and adding wood lessens the earth element.


Creating balance in your home means using the 5 elements evenly. Too much wood hampers your ability to make decisions or develop ideas while too little wood element gives you a feeling of being stuck in a rut.

The One Thing Only 1% of People Do | TRY IT FOR 21 DAYS and Success Will...

In this video, we hear some of the most successful people say one thing! #ENVIRONMENT!

That is one of the most controlling influences in peoples' lives.  It is not just about the buildings, the nature around you but the people around you.  They can shrink or expand your vision with their attitudes, aspirations and expectations.

Now we are hearing some of the biggest speakers in the #personal #development world reiterate the #Power of the #Environment.  What is it saying to you and how can you ensure it is influencing you in the best way possible?

Most people have no idea of the concept of #disicpline in the environment.  They continue to sluggishly get by in the disarray that is always around them and then wonder why they have made no progress.  How many times have I reminded people year after year what they need to do to get clarity and each year I return they live in the same environmental confusion despite having someone there to support them.  Often people do not move until trauma or pain shifts them to do so.

Go to my website www.wealthyspaces.com or #instagram account on fengshui4you where there are lots of ideas whether in business, at home or work where you can make the changes to your environment so they are inspiring you to be the best that you can BE.

Recently I saw an interview talking about vision boards but the reality is that your whole home, business is one big vision board.  You have to create around you the very essence of what it is you want to feel, be, see in your life.

One of the first things you can start to do to get some clarity in your life is to get rid of your clutter.

Then Cleanse your space like the ancient peoples did centuries ago because they understood the power of the invisibility of energetic patterns in our dwellings.

Start creating a space that carries the very idea and essence of what you would like for yourself in your life.  Improved health, travel to foreign places, kids all around you and ensure your environment holds these images for you in a positive way.

If you don't #Discipline your space it will #control you.

I do consultations, talks, lectures all over the world and you can contact me at www.wealthyspaces.com to find out more.

The Metal Element In Feng Shui

The Power Of The Metal Element

The metal element is one of the five elements in feng shui. The right placement of metal in the room can improve the flow of good energy.

The metal element is yin in nature. It signifies the energy moving inward. It represents intelligence, life, and energy. It also represents success and it brings power. The metal element focuses on logic and mental clarity.

The earth element strengthens the metal element and in turn, strengthens the water element. So you can use it to strengthen the water element in your home.

However, one negative aspect of the metal element is that it weakens the wood element. So, to create balance, just add a small touch of the fire element to minimize its impact.

The metal colours are white, silver and gold. Its shapes are circle, oval or crescent. It is considered the purest shape since its line never end.

The best things to use to decorate your home with the metal element are coins, bells, metal objects such as iron, aluminum silver, steel, and gold. Pictures of coins can also be used as decorations.

You can also use wind chimes, metallic Buddha's, vases, artwork that depicts the metal element and flatware.

The presence of this element in your space, whether home or office minimizes or helps eliminate the distractions. It creates clarity and the energy of calm.

It also brings the qualities of precision, efficiency and sharpness.

In the Bagua areas of your home, this element is the best in the north, west and northwest areas. This element does not go with the east, southeast, northeast, southwest, centre and the east area in your home.

A balanced space requires proper placement of things. Use this element to optimize the flow of chi in your place.

5 Steps To Good Health With Feng Shui

Discover The Path To Good Health

How do you maintain good health?

In this busy world that we're living in, giving priority to our health is the last thing that we do. It is one of the important things that we sacrifice the most.

Most homes these days are not suitable for healthy living. Along with stress, pollution, and unhealthy food, the bad vibrations in our place affects our health.

So, how can we have good health?

Feng Shui teaches us that there must be a balance in everything. We should be in harmony with everything around us - visible and invisible.

5 Feng Shui tips to focus to maintain  good health:

1. Declutter your home. Clutter is the most common thing that we can see in most homes. It is not only an eyesore but it affects our physical, mental and emotional health as well. It causes us stress and makes us unhappy. It keeps us away from making good decisions.

An organized home keeps us calm and relaxes our mind. It makes us more efficient and gives us vibrant energy.

2. Food is medicine. Food plays a vital role when it comes to good health. The food that you eat should not only heal and energize your body but also your soul.

Make your food as colourful as it can be and serve it at the right temperature. There should also be a balance when it comes to the taste. A good example would be sweet and sour.

3. Space cleanse your home. Our homes may have energies that have been stuck for a long time. Space cleansing will help you clear your house with these energies.

4. Be with nature. Trees and live plants are live energy. Take a walk in the park or go out of town and breathe fresh air.

5. Meditate. Studies have shown that constant meditation prevents anxiety and depressed. It also heals the organs inside your body.

Good health is not only about the physical but also how we feel on the inside. It is a complete package.

The Water Element In Feng Shui

The Power Of The Water Element

Water is one of the Feng Shui elements. It belongs to the yin or the feminine side. However, if it flows aggressively, it has more of the masculine.

The absence of the water element when decorating a space creates an imbalance in your place. Using the water element correctly in your space will increase the flow of energy of wealth and abundance. It's the reason why it is called as another word for wealth.

In Chinese, water is called Shui. It symbolizes stability, honesty, and patience. Blue and aqua are the colours of water. Among the four cycles of the season, it represents winter. In the Bagua Map, it represents the Life Journey Sector or the Career which can be found at the bottom-centre of the map.

It represents wealth and luck. In the Feng Shui element, the moon and the mercury are related to water. It is also associated with the black turtle.

The water element nourishes the wood element. In the creative cycle, it is nourished by the metal element. It is controlled by the earth element in the controlling cycle.

Proper placement of the symbols or things related to the water element in your home can create an auspicious energy that can help you in your career. Using the water element in your home can harness the energy of this element and enhance the flow of chi.

Any shape that is wavy in your space brings this element in your space. Crystals, water and glass bring the water element into your place.

As much as it brings good energy into your space, the wrong placement of this symbols is considered inauspicious. So be very careful.

Do not place water features in your bedroom as it is believed to put out the passion in your relationship.

Make sure the water feature of your home is facing towards your home. The wrong direction of water means wealth running away from you.

Creating balance in your home brings good chi in your place. Along with the other elements in Feng Shui, use the water element to optimize the good energy in your house or office.

4 Things To Check If You Have A Good Feng Shui Home Office

How do you feel when you're in your home office? Do you feel motivated or do you get easily irritated? It is conducive to learning or developing new ideas?

If your answers are more on the negative side, then it's time for you to take action. It's time for you to have a good feng shui home office.

A good feng shui home office is vital to being productive in the workplace.

A cluttered home office is filled with negative vibrations. It drains your energy and affects your productivity. It makes you easily irritated which can lead to arguments with the people around you.

Below are the things to know if you have a good feng shui home office:

1. Is your office space free from clutter? Is it neat and organized? Clutter creates stress. We tend to get overwhelmed by our work when there are tons of paper scattered on our desk.

Get organized. Put all the documents in folders. It's much easier if you use colour coding and label each of them.

2. Do you inhale stale air in your home office? We stay in our office most of the time during the day. Sometimes, the smell of old garbage or cigarette smoke stays in the air for quite some time.

Open your window first thing in the morning. Let the smell of fresh air come into your space. If it's not possible, use indoor plants. Plants absorb toxins and releases oxygen in our space. Try to choose plants that are low maintenance such as snake plant, lucky bamboo or spider plant.

3. Where is your desk located? In feng shui, your desk should be in the command position. It should be positioned with the wall or cabinet behind you.

Your desk should be put in such a way that you can see who's coming in but it should not be put directly straight to the door.

4. Is your space well-lit? Dark spaces make your work a little bit harder since you tend to put more effort into finding new things.

Replace old or non-working bulbs. If it's possible, let natural sunlight get into your space.

4 Things To Learn If There's Good Feng Shui In Your Home

A good feng shui home brings calm, peace and happiness. It gives us a very light feeling that makes our day relaxing and our tasks lighter.

With the stress that we experience every day due to our busy lifestyle, we often go home to a place that makes us feel worst.

It seems like owning and going home to a good feng shui home is close to impossible. Clutter, dust and broken objects are present all over the place. These things bring bad feng shui in our space.

If we really want to live in a good feng shui home, we have to ask ourselves with these questions. How do you feel about your home? Is there peace in your house?

Below are the things that will help you discover if you have a good feng shui home:

1. Do you keep a strong door and a clean entryway? Your door is the first thing that you go through when you enter your house. Can you open in wide? Is it well lighted at night? Check the area at the back of the door. Make sure that it's free from clutter so it can be wide open. It should be well-lighted. This way your place will look welcoming.

2. Do you own a clean and healthy kitchen? In a good feng shui home, your kitchen is your health and wealth area. Check the cabinets, fridge, and pantry. Leftovers and expired products should be thrown away. Organization and sanitation should be your priority. Live plants in the kitchen is an added bonus.

3. Do you pay attention to your private space? Your bedroom is your own personal space. Paint it with colours that can ignite the love and passion in your relationship. There's no better way of showing how you love yourself than to bring more love, and happiness into your bedroom.

4. Is your toilet clean? Bathrooms have a bad reputation in feng shui. It's one of the most neglected parts of our house. Maintaining its cleanliness is a must if you want to have a good feng shui home.

5. Do you have a piece of nature into your home? A good feng shui home is a space that has a good flow of energy. We must put in mind that everything in our home affects us, from the things that we see down to the air that we breathe. Make every decoration in your home inspiring and the air that you inhale, refreshing. Use the things around you to bring out the live energy that was once there.

Creating a good feng shui home means all parts of your home are well taken care of. From the front to the back of your home. Your relationship, health and wealth corner should be checked always and if there's something that needs your attention, then spend time fixing it.

Tapping Your Way To A Healthier Mind And Body

Learn How To Do The Tapping

Tapping is one of the many ways that you can heal your mind and body. It is known as the emotional version of acupuncture except that it doesn' t use any form of a needle. It is about energy.

Tapping is about emotional energy. It releases the blockages in your body and let the energy flow freely. It frees your mind, body and spirit.

Tapping was developed by a Stanford Engineering graduate, Gary Craig. Its concept is a combination of acupressure and Modern Psychology to alter your brain and energy system.

It is gaining popularity in the West. In fact, there's a growing number of medical practitioners that are practising tapping as a form of healing.

Tapping is easy to learn. It's a DIY thing. All you need to have is to set aside a little time to learn it.

The first thing to do is to make a script. Choose one concern that you would like to get rid of. Write down the problem that is bothering you and at the end add a self-affirmation and the result that you want to have. Remember to put your focus into words and you are ready to go.

Use two to three fingers to tap on each of the meridian points. Do the tapping while saying your script.

Below are the following meridian points where you can do the tapping:

Point 1: The side of the hand

Point 2: The inner eyebrow point.

Point 3: The outside of the eye but not touching the eye.

Point 4: Under the eye.

Point 5: The area between your nose and your upper lid.

Point 6: The area between your lower lip and your chin.

Point 7: Your collarbone point.

Point 8: About 3 inches under the armpit.

Point 9: Top the head.

Start the tapping from number 1. It should be in order.

An example of a good tapping transcript is:

Eyebrow: I release the bad energy inside of me.

Side of the eye: I will do the things that I can do now.

Under the eye: I let go of all the pressure, stress and anxiety.

Under the nose: I know that I am capable of doing my responsibilities.

Chin: I am letting go of everything that is causing me trouble.

Collarbone: I welcome the positive things in my life.

Under the arm: I choose to relax and let go of all my worries.

Top of the head: I am calm and at peace with everything. I am free and in control.

EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques)

What Is Tapping?

EFT (Emotional Healing Technique) or better known as tapping is a holistic technique. It has been proven to help get rid of emotional disorders, addiction, stress, and anxiety among others.

Feng Shui is about shifting the energy within and around us and EFT is about releasing and creating a good flow of energy within us. It helps us remain calm and restore our body's balance.


EFT is a psychological acupressure technique that deals with more of our inner health. It is thought of as a combined Chinese acupressure and modern psychology. It uses the fingertips to tap the specific meridian endpoints of the body while focusing on our negative emotions.

Our body has an energy system that travels through the meridians. Just like acupuncture, EFT promotes healing our body by tapping these meridians. These help to stimulate this system and eventually remove the blockages in our body enabling the energy to flow naturally.

In EFT, we focus on our negative emotions. We may be experiencing a terrible problem or have some unresolved issues that cause our emotional or physical pain. When doing the tapping, we use our fingertips to tap each of the 9 meridian points of our body for up to 5 to 7 times. It is a powerful yet painless way of healing our body.

How do you use tapping or EFT in your life?

We are living a fast-paced life. Stress and anxiety are already a given these days. These lead to poor health and emotional baggage. Living in this kind of life makes us feel stuck and empty. It stops us from having a life filled with calm, peace and happiness.

If you are one of those people who feel like being in a trap, depressed or sick and you want to have a change of life, try doing the EFT. It's easy to do and is proven to help people feel better not only on the outside but most especially on the inside.

Lucky Bamboo For Good Feng Shui In Your Home

Get To Know The Lucky Bamboo And The Energy It Brings

The lucky bamboo is a common fixture in our homes. Whether it be at home or the office, the lucky bamboo is considered as one of the most common Feng Shui cures. It is cheap and easy to maintain.

However, even though it is easy to take care, most people still tend to neglect it. I've seen countless lucky bamboo plants struggling to survive in different homes. A dying or wilted bamboo plant brings bad energy and it is bad Feng Shui.

The lucky bamboo plant is hollow from the inside. It is said that this kind of hollowness teaches us the ultimate wisdom and that is to be open on the inside and let the energy flow freely. For only when there is a free flow of energy can healing begin.


Some people ask if the lucky is related to the 5 elements in Feng Shui. The obvious answer would be an absolute yes. Here's the reason why:

1. The lucky bamboo represents the wood element.

2. The water that you pour on the plant to nourish it represents the water element.

3. The metal coin that you put on it or the glass pot represents the metal element.

4. The red ribbon that you tie on the plant represents the fire element.

5. Rocks, stones and clay that are being used represent the earth element.

If you own a bamboo or you're planning to own one and use it to bring good energy into your home, bare in mind that there are vital areas that you can place the bamboo. The best place to put your plant is in your money area which is the South-East and your family bagua area which is the East area of your home.

The number of stalks in your plant represents different things.

Two stalks are for love and marriage.

Three stalks are for happiness.

Five stalks are for good health.

Eight stalks are for wealth and prosperity.

Nine stalks are for good fortune.

The Singing Bowl And The Energy In Your Home

The Perfect Time To Use Your Singing Bowls

You have heard this thing called singing bowl but you have no idea how powerful it is. Most people take it for granted. They end up as decorations in homes, gathering dust, not being used for their real purpose.

The real purpose of singing bowls is to cleanse our space. The sound of the singing bowl brings a powerful energy into our space. It promotes healing in our place.

We are affected by the vibrations in our home, business or office. Stagnant energy causes diseases, conflict in relationships and unproductivity while a free flow of energy helps you create balance. It makes you feel good, keep you calm and happy. These good qualities create a good relationship and a healthy working environment.

Using a singing bowl to create a good vibration in your space is an ancient technique. It is a time-tested Feng Shui cure.

When do you use the singing bowl?

Below are the best times to use your singing bowl:

1. Use the singing bowl to lift the energy in your home. Use it during your space clearing sessions. It is best to use it when there's an argument or a member of your household is suffering from a serious disease.

2. You can also use the singing bowls when money is scarce or there's a slow down in your business.

3. Singing bowls are good at lifting the energy of the stagnant and dark areas in your home.

4. Use the healing power of your singing bowl before and after spring cleaning.

Always remember that this is not a one time only activity. The best time to use it is in the morning wherein everything is still calm or quiet.
