Your Heart is Where Your Home is 

When it comes to an experiential adventure, the Three Sisters of the Tao are forces to be reckoned with. They have taken to heart my desire to live in enduring harmony and led me down the class five rapids of transformation. As expert guides, they are calm, highly skilled way-showers who continue to teach me how to navigate through the changeable conditions of life using the inner compass of the heart.

Translated as the Way, the Tao chronicles the path to harmony. As Sisters, Chinese Medicine, I Ching, and Feng Shui, are born from the Tao, their legacies tracing back as far as the historical eye can see. There is a timeless quality about their message that is easy to recognize. We can feel it. The Tao, the Way, is permeated with love. I feel each Sister offers her own perspective. Chinese Medicine places tranquility at the very core of harmony. She is poetic in her observations, viewing the body as the temple of miracles where the tranquil heart is the bedchamber of heaven and earth and birthplace of the true self. She counsels us to embrace a lifestyle where work, play, and rest form a trinity from which our full potential can blossom. Many inner gateways open in her presence, invitations to embody the myriad facets of our selves as creative, sensual, luminous human beings.

I Ching views kindness as the heart of the matter. She is fierce in her direction, lest we sink in the dark waters of heartlessness. She tutors us in weaving kindness into every thought, word and action, a practice that circles around to sew all manner of blessings into our lives. She is also a revealer, unveiling the nonphysical world of loving help devoted to our ever-unfolding transformation.

Feng Shui gathers the wisdom of her Sisters and brings it home. She encourages us to personally craft environmental sanctuaries that can hold our tranquility in place. A great enthusiast of comfort, safety, and beauty, she is always looking for ways to give kindness shelter and make our hearts sing. Through her influence, our inner and outer worlds become harmonious reflections of each other, resonant chords in a living symphony of sacred space inside the greater matrix of community.
