Greeting for MAY-June 2020
Hi! I wanted to bring you a message that is relevant and inspirational this month…
The last thing I wanted to do was to give you a message that keeps dwelling on this virus and shut down stuff…. And yet, many of us are spirally out trying to sort the next phase of action. It’s all about changes, and … The first in a new series to Taking Charge!
I wish to let you know you…
WALLS can TALK: Looking for a change? A pick-me-up perhaps? Seeing the same-same stuff in your home can become dull and uninspiring. Seasons change and so do our interests and motivations.
Let’s have a look at some of the cryptic messages we send ourselves with pictures and things you hang on the walls.

This first one is a Chinese Scroll with an image of two Red-Capped Cranes. Size: 12”w X 36”

Hello- HELLO!
This is a lively interview with myself and Beverly Zeimet about Feng Shui and Changing TImes!
The first question is always, ‘What is Feng Shui?”
ZOOM Interview: I know it is a long interview; you don’t have to watch it at all!
LOL! Actually, just listen in during your coffee break or lunch hour.
This is one of my best informative interviews:
More about me, how I discovered Feng Shui, my first ‘wealth cure’,
and tips on how…
Art is so personal.
I found this great print in a decorating warehouse here in BC, already framed and ready to go! I identified with this immediately so, I pulled out my credit card!
What is it about choosing images and art that seems so difficult? When someone finally finds a great piece to jump into…they often don’t! Are you afraid of upsetting the balance of complacency in the home?
As the darker days descend upon us, our focus turns…
Something’s not working? As with many routines in life, we need to shift our habits with the seasons.
In our case, the back door entry was also the spot to park the washer and dryer. A little tight on most days, but bringing in two, large, muddy dogs to dry off… well?
This first picture was taken after we stripped the cupboards and took out a large laundry sink and shelves. We had more room for the pups to turn…
Video conferencing is high on the list of staying sane! Apparently Face-time, Zoom and skype usage is UP 2000% in the last month! WOW!
Once served for the sole purpose of inter-department conference calls, we now rely on this for distance learning, visiting relatives and there’s’ so much more going on!
One of the reasons I wrote about this subject, it was prompted by a situation last week: a guy fresh out of the shower, signed into a webinar, and…
If you could read my mind: A Simple Game of ABC
The lyrics to a popular song lead to wonder, mystique and perhaps misconception about what’s going on inside ourselves. Our ‘enforced relaxation’ away from regular routines and community friends has lead many of us to ponder our existence, and wonder what is coming next!
If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts would tell…
Are you unsettled these days? Thoughts wondering and wandering throughout the…
Ever feel that something isn’t ‘quite right’? Is it the time-of-day that seems to have disruptions? Or perhaps, procrastination has set in.
Stressful issues and anxiety, can blow things out of proportion and lead to non-productivity. Your situation can change daily!
In attempts to find coping skills, many people ask me about décor for their working spaces: which colours to choose and where to put things. If you follow the rules and embrace Feng Shui Theories, your space will feel…
Something blocked in your life? Perhaps your home or work space doesn’t feel right anymore?
Perhaps, luck is already THERE and you just haven’t seen it!
For many, solutions for problem areas can be found in simple things, such as shapes and colours.
Common Shapes for Decorating
When supporting an area within the Bagua, shapes are often the easiest to manipulate.
SQUARES: If the life area you choose to enhance needs to be stable and grounded, then squares would…
Game night!
There was always a game after supper.
My earliest card games I learned from my Grandparents. The times we were allowed to stay over night were always on school break. Without parents around, we could have our grandparents’ undivided attention.
Our precious time after the evening meal was a way to connect. A time of laughter, and wit; a way to learn how to problem-solve, or, the next move.
My grandparents taught my sister and I how to…
Being a guest on Kathryn’s radio show, Practical Solutions for Life, was a great experience. Kathryn took me step by step to prepare me for what to expect (especially in case of technical difficulties). She asked very clear questions and was a generous and supportive host. She put me at ease and the show came out great!
