Ask Kathryn about Boots Under the Bed

Q: Hi Kathryn! My husband and I are doing some earthquake preparations out here on the west coast. The booklet suggests we have a pair of boots under the bed for quick evacuation should this happen while sleeping. I heard it was bad feng shui to leave shoes and boots under the bed, especially for a long time. What do you think? Amy A: You are correct! Leaving boots and shoes under the bed is a no-no! The rational in…

Ask Kathryn About Money Frogs

  Q: Hi Kathryn, Can you tell me more about the Money frog? I heard they were lucky for wealth in feng shui so I bought one with a gold coin in his mouth. My hairdresser has one facing away from the door, and my naturpath has one on her desk facing towards the door of her office. Are these different frogs? Which way should I face the frog? A: Good question. Yes, there is conflicting information out there! The…

Fitting In to a New Promotion

On the LOOKOUT for Color!

I LOVE COLOR! Colour brings me a mood, a flavor-of-the-day, and makes me smile! I’m always on the lookout for more opportunities to share color with my readers. I found this cute little spot in San Diego last month, a slice of Spanish Village. Someone had the idea to paint the worn out flagstone blocks with GREAT COLOR. I was able to take a few pictures before they opened for the day. This hidden gem, inside Balboa Park, was filled…

The Powerful Influence of Deep Water

The Powerful Influence of Deep Water A large majority of our senior population are water-people. The majority of ‘deep water’ individuals are hard workers and have experienced many of life’s hard lessons. In earlier years, they may have been a strong earth or metal element; a sensitive nurturer or a technical whiz in their profession. Now they bring a plethora of knowledge to any situation. Experience has shaped their philosophy and we can look to them for guidance and direction.…

Arguing Doors

  The beauty of a home with an Open Concept gives the illusion that everything in the main living area is out in the open, and the energy flows marvellously. It is a disappointment when the rest of the house doesn’t flow the same way. When a closet door opens and collides with the bedroom door, or the washroom door, you have irritation and a logistics problem.  I know there is more going on than just the obvious.  The feng…

Testimonials

Kathryn, I would like to thank you for your assistance and participation in the Costco Road Show. It was personally very rewarding to see how hard work pay off.

The business model has proven to offer exposure for both beyond our current channels of distribution. As you have found over the last few weeks, it seems we continue to have new customers joining the current Josef-Seibel & Romika shoe wearers.

Thank you once again for making this a success.
