09/22/2014 Edited: Jan 05 2019 CH-CH-Changes While change can be good for the soul, many people resist! When people resist change, it often means they are already happy in the moment. They ask, “Why change?” They like the age of their kids, they like their time together, and (bonus) the in-laws live two hours away! To sum it up, the balance in their life seems to be working for now, and there is no reason to change! As we know,…

The ABC’S of Christmas It was a few years back, just after we’d moved from southern Ontario to Vancouver BC., when my husband Stephen and I looked at each other with total exasperation. The topic of Xmas had been placed on the table. Sigh… The boys were grown and had moved along. One was in South America doing his own thing with a group of artists and the other had left for Australia to find work. There wasn’t even a…

Music and Vibration to Relax Is the traffic getting worse; or is it my imagination? Do you experience a time-warp every time you get on the computer?

‘Spindle City’ is the nick-name I gave to my new cottage-home. Yep, a solid, 1982 two-story home with tons of room for my stuff -and spindles on every floor! There are oak spindles everywhere: the porch, two decks, a dock, a two-story staircase, a cat-walk overhead and all around a sunken living room! What were we thinking? We were hunting for the ‘right place’ for almost 2 years; what we found was that newer homes had smaller properties. Years ago…

The morning after a move is a bit overwhelming! A few comments about our move this summer: Change. Life is continually changing. Taking control of one’s life to move across the country, a new job and new neighbors takes courage and confidence. These changes can be overwhelming for many, so I’ve heard from many of you. If you jump too early, due to frustration and emotional toil, you will bring all your troubles/burdens along with you. One piece of…

THE CALL Sandy called me without a specific need; and yet, she was disappointed with several areas of her life. She felt depressed. Her life seemed to be stalled. She was off work on sick leave and her kids weren’t talking to her! Does feng shui have any ideas that could help her get her life back? (Yes! Of course!)

It used to be ‘normal’ to be born, live and die all in the same house; or at least, the same city. Society these days makes it possible, and probable, for people & families to move more frequently. This could be related to a fluctuating job market, unstable politics or perhaps a marriage commitment; ‘for better or worse’. So many people have shared with me their angst, about relocating this year! There seems to be a mass movement! We…

You’ve been there before: your brain won’t stop racing, you can’t really sleep; and then you hop in the shower –problem solved! How does this work? There are a couple of reasons: No interruptions: You’ve shut off contact from your phone and family. Having interruptions constantly sabotages your creative mind.
