Your Kitchen and the 5 Elements of Feng Shui

Don’t you love this kitchen? I do! What a wonderful use of space and sitting at the table feels as if you are eating outside.

Wherever your kitchen is, it represents your health and wellness. So it is critical that your kitchen is free of clutter, so the chi can freely flow; no broken items to break the chi; and like this kitchen, bring in some healthy plants which represent growth.

Having all five elements present balances the chi. This kitchen has earth in the plants; wood from the material of the table; fire from the light fixture as well as the sun shining in; water from the color black in the floor; and metal from the white walls.

How are you feeling? Is anyone chronically sick in your family? Look at your kitchen first.

How Your Bedroom Symbolizes Love in Your Relationship

How Your Bedroom Symbolizes Love in Your RelationshipDo you want to know what I like about this bedroom? EVERYTHING!

No matter where your bedroom is located, it always represents your love and relationships. Warm colors reminiscent of skin tones such as the color of the bedspread are ideal because they are soothing. Greens are considered restful, the perfect feeling for a bedroom.

Behind the bed are healthy green leaves that are growing upward, just like the relationship of the people who sleep there.

There is a great deal of balance with the two lamps on the two night stands.

And the only thing I would do is get the books off of the floor and suggest that the drapes be closed each night so that the window panes do not cut the chi while these people sleep.

And finally, I find this room to be inviting and sensual, what could be better than that to symbolize love and relationships?

A creative solution to the clutter our books can make using Feng shui

StaircaseI love this staircase! What a creative solution to the clutter our books can make. 

Getting rid of clutter is a foundational principle of Feng Shui. Clutter creates stagnant energy and becomes an obstacle to any flow of chi in your space. Form defines energy. Clutter represents a chaotic form, thus chaotic energy. When clutter is removed, additional space is created. 

A genius of the last century, Nicholas Tesla once said, “There is an abundance of energy in space.” What an understatement! The less clutter you have, the more space you have, and the better flow of energy you have to activate all the power sections of your space.

The five element theory is at the very heart of Feng Shui

Feng Shui elements rule

Feng Shui elements rule every corner of your home or office and the five element theory is at the very heart of Feng Shui. The chi energy in any direction is ruled by the five elements; fire, wood, metal, earth, and water. We all use these elements to manifest opportunities and smooth out any obstacles.

This room is the perfect example of the earth element which brings nourishment, stability, and protection to this home. Our modern lifestyles promote disconnection from nature and produce a hectic and vastly artificial way of life. A strong earth element in your space will bring you back to your own center, calm and reassure you and help to provide support for all your endeavors.

Feng Shui Design Tips for Your Living Room

GrandfatherMy great great grandfather was 12 when his family was murdered in Ireland. He stowed away on a ship and landed in New Orleans. He later became a judge and bought this house on St. Charles Ave.

I have always loved this room. Doesn’t it feel good? That’s because it’s balanced. The mirror over the fireplace represents water which balances the fire. The credenza represents wood, flowers on the table brings in the earth element, and all the white is metal or air. All of this air is perfect for a living room that wants to encourage conversations, including the couches that face each other, which will balance any dialogue between anyone who sits on them. How does your living room feel?
