Inner Feng Shui
This is a perfect time to plant our inner gardens. What aspects of your life would you like to see blossom? What dreams do you need to plant in fertile soil? Do you need to weed or dig out anything that’s choking your purpose in life? Take a few minutes to contemplate your inner garden. See yourself planting the seeds and plants that represent the things that are important to you. Then, tend to your inner garden. Water and nurture it with intention and purpose, and enjoy the fruits of your inner work.

Feng Shui Definitions: Closets, drawers, and cabinets
Closets, drawers, and cabinets are often the clutter hideaways and stagnant backwaters of a home. They can negatively affecting the flow of Ch’i throughout. The house may look orderly until you open a closet or drawer- then all clutter breaks loose! There’s no place to hide in Feng Shui! The organization and pleasing arrangement of closets, drawers, and cabinets is as important as the organization and arrangement of your living room.
Please don’t be overwhelmed. Take it one spot at a time. Keep the items only if your answers are positive! If not, let them go, knowing the Ch’i in your entire home—and your life—will benefit (see decluttering guidelines).

Our gardens and landscaped areas are our personal passports into nature. They keep us connected to the natural rhythms of life, while replenishing and sustaining the Ch’i that meanders through our homes.

Inner Feng Shui: Front Entrances
Do you feel that you are open to receiving all the goodness life holds for you? Are your inner doors (your inner front entrances) open to welcoming happy, healthy relationships with yourself, your family, neighbors, co-workers, and friends? Affirm that only safe, loving, angelic people and experiences are attracted to your threshold. Breathe deeply and say “WITH JOY AND GRATITUDE, I WELCOME AN ABUNDANCE OF POSITIVE PEOPLE AND EXPERIENCES INTO MY LIFE, NOW AND ALWAYS.”
Essential Feng Shui Tips: Front Entrances
The area leading up to your front door, the threshold itself, and the area immediately inside the house, are all part of your front entrance. Front entrances are the place of first impressions, and the primary place where vital Ch’i enters your home. Ideally, your front entrance is “entrancing,” symbolizing your desire to welcome others into your home. Roll out the welcome mat and make your front entrance fabulous. In so doing, you’ll attract an abundance of nourishing Ch’i into your home.
