365 Vacations a Year
Essential Feng Shui observes that most people in western cultures pursue lifestyles that are overly active. Though collectively encouraged, incessant ‘doing’ tips the balance of our health and happiness. Taking the time each day to be becomes our daily vacation. Quietude nurtures the heart and provides us with the space to reflect, dream, and soak up the richness of our inner world. Rest and the fine art of being opens us up to receive and explore sparks of genius that live like polished gemstones beneath the busy surface of life. We dive in and are washed clean. Refreshed, we re-enter the world with our pockets full of deep insights. These insights weave their way into our daily activities and we experience being in sync with the transformational flow of a balanced life.
Here are 2 of my recent journal musings that touch upon this:

A: Yes! Ideally, road trips and vacations of all kinds are opportunities to “vacate” our own personal paradises and experience other versions of paradise. When planning your vacation, give some serious thought to your preferences.
Q & A – Feng Shui for Southern Hemisphere
Q. I have been reading Terah Kathryn Collins’ books and find they cover a lot of information regarding Feng Shui. There is one thing that is not covered and I am a bit stuck with applying the Bagua Map without the answer. I have heard from some people that you need to reverse the Bagua Map for the Southern Hemisphere, I live in Australia so I am looking for the answer to this question. There are so many different view points regarding this so I was hoping to obtain Terah’s view point.
– Thanks, Mate.
A. No reversal needed! You can apply the Bagua Map as you see it in my books in whatever hemisphere you are in. Like gravity, Ch’i flow applies the same throughout our entire world. Enjoy!!
