 As leaves turn on the magnolia tree outside my window and I am reminded of the seasonal cycles of nature. Life is in constant movement. While the external world is dynamic and unpredictable (weather, economy and politics), now, more than ever, our homes need to be a haven for shelter and serenity.
As you spend more time indoors, I invite you to reflect on ways to bring balance to your life and home. This issue of Harmonious Living offers insights to create positive changes in your surroundings. Join me for my upcoming Feng Shui and Color classes or take advantage of my Fall Consultation Special for a fresh perspective on your home!
Blessings for a nurturing autumn,

FEATURE ARTICLE:
There's No Place Like Home
For centuries, humans have sought the comfort of home — a private place of shelter from the elements of nature. Enveloped under a sheltering roof, home provides a refuge for rejuvenation, a place for connecting with family and friends and to reflect your personal style.
Creating a home is a process of discovery and change. The once engaging terracotta color wall in the family room may now lack appeal. You may find yourself desiring a soothing, sage green instead. Perhaps an area in your home has accumulated unbearable clutter and you know it's time to organize, toss and donate anything that no longer serves you.
As I reflect on changes in my life, including a new hobby exploring encaustic art, I'm in need of a designated room for creativity. Finding space in my 900 square foot Ballard bungalow is challenging. After meeting an architect in one of my classes, I'm in the planning stages for a new addition to create an art studio.
Whether change involves remodeling, redesigning a room or removing clutter, your home offers endless opportunities to rediscover yourself — and to reflect who you are in present time. When you fail to keep your spaces evolving, your home can actually hold you back from moving forward in life. An alive and evolving home provides a fertile environment for personal growth and fullfillment.
As you head into autumn, here are some questions to ponder:
- What has changed in my life? (relationship, job, health, ideas, etc.)
- To feel more in balance, do I need more energy or serenity at this time?
- What am I passionate about?
- What colors am I drawn to? How can I incorporate color into my home?
- What area of my home is cluttered? How soon can I get it organized?
- What areas of my life would I like to improve? (relationship, career, family, wealth, health, helpful people, etc. See bagua life map)
- How can I reflect my desired goals through décor in the Feng Shui areas of my home?
|
By assessing personal needs and taking action to shift your surroundings, you evolve who you are and how you live. Whether changes are made from the outside in, or the inside out, there's no better place to inspire your life than the haven we call home.

~ Feng Shui your Desk ~
A cluttered desk creates a cluttered mind and reflects missed opportunities. The first step to a clear mind and welcoming new business is clearing stagnant energy in the form of piles of paper, undeleted emails and file drawers stuffed with outdated materials. Once the clutter is gone, organize your desk and give it a good cleaning. Let it shine!
Place your desk in the "power position" (out of the direct path entering the room, a wall of support behind you and a view of the entrance from the seated position). To further enhance positive energy, you can face one of your best personal directions for wealth, relationship, health, and clear thinking when on the computer or phone.
That's "Good Chi". . . and a tip for creating a more powerful workspace! |

For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad."
