The Basic Steps in Feng Shui
by Patricia J. Santhuff
If you’re excited about what Feng Shui might be able to do in your life,
here’s a "Getting Started Plan" for you :
-
Thoroughly clean and de-clutter every part of your environment.
Yes, everything. Unfortunately, “there are no hiding places in Feng Shui.”
That means you don’t get any junk drawers, let alone any junk rooms. De-cluttering
is important – maybe even potent enough to overcome your resistance.
-
Take care of any maintenance issues.
Leaky roof, stuck or hard-to-open doors, anything broken or not working,
and especially any leaking faucets or toilets, since water represents wealth
and cash flow.
-
Take care of the yard work.
Make sure the landscaping is attractive, inviting, and well-kept. Remove
any dead or dying plants immediately. You don’t want any “dead” energy
anywhere in your vibrant living space. Don’t let any plant material overgrow
the walkways or obscure the front door.
-
Make the front door indescribably inviting.
Think of it as a beautiful still-life painting. Add color, harmony, contrast.
Make sure all five elements are represented. Chi enters through the front
door, and you want to entice all the chi that you can. Anything that catches
the eye because of its beauty attracts beneficial chi. Red doors are fabulous
for attracting chi, if that works with the decor of your house. Black is
good, too.
-
Make sure your foyer or front entry is inviting.
It should also create a welcome transition from the hectic pace of the
outside world to your own little island of tranquillity.
-
Remove or replace everything that you don’t absolutely love.
Also remove those things you don't use, in the case of more functional
items like kitchen utensils or garden tools. This is an evolutionary process,
rather than something you can do overnight.
You have lots of things in your house and office that may not qualify
as "clutter," but neither do they make your heart sing, feed your soul
or nourish you on a daily basis. The goal of Feng Shui is to create a thoroughly
nurturing environment for you and your family. It can never adequately
do that if you’re surrounded by things with bad memories attached, or that
are shabby, tacky or ugly, or that don’t vitalize you. In Feng Shui we
learn that the things in our environment either nurture us or deplete our
energy. There is no middle ground.
-
Fix your Feng Shui problems.
Perhaps you learn that you have missing areas of the bagua, which is the
template of life activity that is used to map the spaces you occupy. Fix
those and any other problems that act as obstacles to a successful life.
Most American homes are riddled with Feng Shui problems, but for each there
are usually multiple possible solutions.
Once any serious problems in specific areas have have been addressed, you
can add enhancements to those areas.
Feng Shui will change your life, a little or a lot. It may not bring you
what you want in the exact form you may expect, but rather what is in your
best interests.
As you free up and generate more beneficial chi, you will grow in all
areas of your life, which in turn necessitates further changes in your
environment. It’s helpful to remember, as you get excited about Feng Shui
and want to do everything at once, that “there is no final destination;
it’s all journey.”
And Feng Shui will be there to empower your journey every step of the
way as you grow, change, and prosper -- from the very moment you start
using it, until your journey has ended.

The stresses and problems of life often come from the places where we live
and work. Feng Shui -- the ancient Chinese art of placement, shows you
how the way you arrange your home or workplace affects not just your personal
and professional activities, but your health, wealth, and happiness.
By using Feng Shui, people have increased their finances, got better
careers, improved their investments and business, and improved relationships.
There are even cases where health has improved.
