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.
There is nothing to learn, and nothing to do but let your ‘muscle memory’ go through the motions of soaping, and washing your body. Let all the other tasks…
It’s after mid-night and you’re wide awake, again! What happened this time? Our bodies fall asleep, but much of the brain sub-conscious, is still awake – protecting us from saber-tooth tigers and monsters under the bed!
It is how we are conditioned.
Yet, this seems rather extreme; considering I woke up because of a toothbrush the other night! Really!
When our ‘sleep mode’ shifts through deep sleep and its rhythms, the sub-conscious picks up all kinds of information; and tries…
ROAR! ! Does your day get filled with distractions and problems to solve? Does your Professional Development get put on the back burner all the time?
Many of our workdays are chewed up with issues that are not productive.
Every Entrepreneur needs to set aside time for reading, research and professional development. It is part of the job to stay on top of things or get left behind! We need a solid strategy to stay focused!
Many entrepreneurs, while driven…
Q: What is this I hear about you moving? Are you still going to have your newsletter?
(FYI: this was an actual question this month, word for word.)
A: Yes, this is true! My family of two adults, two dogs and a cat are moving! In addition, absolutely I will still offer my newsletter! Each month I ponder ‘what is going on in the world’, and then, I try to sort it out so that all of you can…
Real Life: Case Alexis*
THE CALL
Alexis called me because she felt overwhelmed with her life. She wasn’t sleeping well, so she moved into the spare bedroom. She was dealing with an audit at work and felt chronically unorganized and non-productive. After a visit with Alexis, we arranged things to help her sleep, and then, we uncovered a few other hidden issues in her home.
When Alexis called me for a chat, and told me her story, she…
Q: Hey Kathryn, I’ve just moved and I was looking at ways to rearrange my living room to use more feng shui. Do you have a book on living rooms and kitchens? Thanks, Deni
A: Hi Deni! Thanks for your note. Interesting enough, when a home has ‘good feng shui’, it has the ‘feeling’ of grounding, peace, safety, balance and harmony. In many cases, it can be almost undetectable!
My personal book focuses on offices and careers, ‘Practical feng Shui…
The Family: An ‘Area of Life’ I don’t usually write about.
This auspicious area has the strength to improve relationships with those close to you; affecting family, friends, relatives and coworkers (different kind of family) This is an area-of-life full of intense proportion; we should pay attention to this space!
There is SO MUCH MORE to this family area!
The Family Area also encompasses our heritage line and all the baggage it entails: familial or tribal behaviours, ancestral beliefs…
How Satisfied are You with The NINE AREAS OF LIFE?
Is there something out of balance in your life? Something that feels a bit odd and you can’t sort it out? ~Every change in your life can test your coping skills!
Feng Shui can help you attain this balance and maneuver the energy to work for you.
Many of us are so busy with work and chores we often forget about other areas in life that can help us…
T’is the season; but it is never the ‘Norman Rockwell’ scene in real life. Our society and expectations of the holidays can easily become a disappointment, time-and-time again.
I remember one of ‘those years’ as a single mom, working retail around the clock. I tried to nix the family dinner for my own sanity, and then, I had a big problem with everyone anyways!
Why is there so MUCH pressure from society to have the ‘best holiday EVER’?…
In the next few months, you may find the blues setting in; waiting for spring to arrive. Hibernation can be a option for you. How could you bring some spice into your world?
~I looked up synonyms for the word ‘spice’; the top three words I liked best were interest, pizazz and enhance! Very cool, indeed!
In feng shui we talk a lot about ‘enhancing your space’. ‘Enhancements’ can be as small as a bead on a blouse, or as…
Wow Kathryn! I just finished your book and it is FULL of great advice, along with many of the Feng Shui principles that I hadn’t been aware of, which made perfect sense! I also took your PEP test and I was quite surprised at how it nailed my personality to a ‘T’. The way you explain Feng Shui, it’s purpose and how we can utilize it in the workplace as well as in our home environment, certainly has given me some valuable information to implement and use to be proactive in creating a bette… Read more
