Sleepless in Your Own Town?

One of my clients writes in their concern; “I’m still having trouble sleeping these days. I’ve checked my bed placement and taken the mirror out of the bedroom.

Is There a Decorating Rule of 3?

Q: I keep buying more and more ‘stuff’ to decorate my house (plants, knick knacks, vases, and more). They all look so great in the store, but I can’t seem to get the same look at home.
