When it comes to your overall health and happiness, there is only so much that a well-balanced diet and daily exercise can do. Did you know that the environment you live and work in affects your health as well?
Energy (or “Qi”) is continuously flowing around us, whether we are aware of it or not. The way in which you arrange your furniture, the colors you choose for each room and the lighting in a certain space can greatly impact this energy. If your home or office is cluttered and dark, the energy you feel will be the same. Make sure you are living in harmony with your natural surroundings, rather than disrupting it.
To do this, you’ll want to incorporate the five elements of Feng Shui (fire, water, earth, metal and wood) into your personal space. As demonstrated in the infographic below, by representing these five elements, you can promote health, wealth, love, creativity and a range of other benefits within your home, office or outdoor space.

Saw this in your side bar and HAD to check it out. My husband has been into feng shui for years and has applied the principals to our home (he gets into the north, south, east, west thing, too). When people enter our home, they frequently comment on how peaceful it feels. It’s a total energy thing. I’ve been meaning to do a blog post on this for months!
Would love to read your Feng Shui blog post! Thanks for your post on front-loading washer smells. I plan to share that link and try it myself.
