Every little bit of shift that you make in your home or office will help assist you in your day to day living. Here are a few tips to get you started:

1. It is most desirable to have a South facing door and if you are lucky enough to have one,

use the door often to bring in the good chi energy to help you each day. Most of us come

home through our garage door, so you do need to pay attention to the front door. Open

the door every so often and check to make sure that the door bell rings and that the area

close to the door area is clean and looks good to those passing by your home.


2. If you are an urban dweller and you don't have mountains surrounding your home, rethink

those tall buildings around you-they are your mountains. They are a form of protection and

when they are close around you, especially behind your home, they hover around you and

protect you each day.


3. Actively flowing water is good Feng Shui and you need to make sure that it does not get

stagnant or it will create a negative energy around you. 2010 is a year that shows the water

element will be missing and it is most beneficial for you to add more around you.


4. Bamboo is a great plant to use in your decor. It can be used in any form and it has all of the

5 elements of Feng Shui built right into the plant.


5. A house that is located in an area where the the water and wind are in constant extreme

motion creates a yang energy. This is not the part of your home to have a bedroom or an

office. The energy shift will be detrimental to sleep or work.


6. If you build your home near a meandering stream or lake, it will benefit all of those who live

in the home. The gentle flowing energy is good for everyone.

7. If you live in the vicinity of a a church that has crosses and spires, it will impact the

neighborhood negatively. The best solution with this is to plant a tree or place a fence

facing it to block this energy. It will just shift the energy back into the church area and

not be harmful to anyone.


8. Bright objects can be an easy office cure to lift and shift the energy in a space. When you

make these small changes, you will be able to see others reacting in a positive way around

you each day.


9. Creating different sounds around you can increase energy or decrease energy. It just

depends on what is happening around you. Is it so noisy that you can't think, soften the

music. Are you falling asleep at your desk, step up the beat of the music!


10. If you would like to have wind chimes around you, listen to different types of chimes. Some

of them are deeper or softer. What kind of sound would work in your space?

I work on my house and office Feng Shui constantly to allow for the ebb and flow of my life and business. These tips will help you focus in a few areas that can get you started in the wonderful world of Feng Shui.

Color Tip

Support your wellbeing with color
Author: Diantha Harris


Color healing therapies date back centuries - to the ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece, India and others. We are rediscovering and relearning the power of these venerable modalities: that color appears to have the capacity to support healing on all levels of our being, both spirit and flesh, from heartaches to headaches.

I would be remiss if I did not add that in this country I cannot lawfully make claims that color can help us physically, so let me just say that color seems to help support our quest for wellness and is a good helper.

That said, what are some of the ways to use color?

First, always consider consulting a specialist or color therapist for your particular issues. What could seem just a headache might stem from something else, so it is important to consult a professional as well as your regular doctor.

Second, once the color has been selected, bring it into your body:

~ Use colored light therapies (available through a color therapist)
~ Wear clothing of a certain color
~ Be in a room painted a certain color
~ Eat fruits and vegetables of a certain color
~ Wear color therapy glasses
~ Use color breathing techniques
~ Use color meditation techniques
~ Use color sprays

How do you select the right color? If you do not have a color therapist near you, educate yourself about the colors that affect your situation. My website has a lot of information in the section on color sprays, and my book, Simply Color, is chockfull of information on color and how to use it.

Color is effective because it comes to us through the energy system connected to our eyes (color therapy glasses, paints, colored windows, accessories, furnishings, flowers, trees, water), our skin (clothing, color sprays), our stomach (foods we ingest) and our lungs (color breathing, color sprays).

The energy and vibration of each color goes throughout our bodies to the area where it is housed in our bodies (chakras). When we have challenges, the color is drained from our chakras and we need to replenish it. For example, when we feel ungrounded or listless, we have probably used up much of the red color in our bodies or perhaps we are naturally deficient in it. The need for red is met by wearing the color, eating red foods like raspberries, strawberries and red apples or holding a red object in our hands. If red deficient, we could also do red color breathing, wear the red or use the red therapy glasses.

Color is around us always. It is part of our everyday lives. If you can learn about how to use it effectively, you will always have a tool for healing and wellbeing at your fingertips.

Rainbow blessings to all!

ColorTip of the monthTurquoise
by one of my Favorite Color Experts, Diantha Harris

Our color of the month is a tertiary color that combines green (made of blue and yellow) with more blue. There is a strong relationship between turquoise and new communications technology. In fact, turquoise -- heart energy (green) and communication energy (blue) -- is often referred to as the "New Age color" because it has come to represent communication from one to many.

And with this relationship of communication from one to many, turquoise also relates to teachers. So as the doors close on another school year, we offer our gratitude to those who serve in our classrooms and schools.

And let us also mention all the wonderful people on our planet who teach in other ways as well, especially to those working in community for the highest good, who offer selfless service, who relish and share the ability to play and who honor psychic communication.

A big turquoise thank-you to you all!The challenges found in turquoise are feelings of being weighed down by responsibility, being too tied down into routine with no outlet for humor and being driven by fear rather than the good of all.

For more on turquoise and other colors, please take a peek inside the new edition of my book Simply Color by Diantha Harris.
