A small group of us met in a Kitsilano neighbour for a feng shui tour of a few blocks. Feng shui…

ENERGY FIELDS in Humans and Pets Energy fields in humans and pets can be detected using the same dowsing tools for geopathic stress. We all have an energetic field around us. Think of the chi-energy we’ve talked about earlier. It is invisible to the naked eye, but it has enough power to send out our moods and temperaments to the general public. The dowsing rod can assess your energy level by counting each time the arm swings a full…

Where is your Ancestor Chi-energy? I have discussed chi-energy previously and as you know, it can be found in many forms. Ancestor-chi is passed along via the blood lines that connect you with your direct ancestors. My dad’s working career was a Newspaper Ad-man. He did the ‘copy’ for all the ads and special features that ran in the newspapers back in Ontario. He came from a bloodline of serious artists. When retired, he turned his attention to paintings…

Good Vibes in the Bedroom by Kathryn Wilking We all know how ‘sacred’ the master bedroom is; but is it getting the attention it really needs for a solid relationship?

Fire People have Energy to Burn Do you remember the last time you were really passionate about something? It could have been something quiet; perhaps a breath-taking view of the lake? Or, more emotional; such as standing up for someone who was falsely accused? The fire element, in feng shui, is represented by the colour red and generally shows up in the Fame or Wealth areas of the home. These areas of your home are definitely hot, as they…

Stop the Madness …the short version It was only a few years ago that we were dealing with our own renovation. Is was a complicated ordeal dealing with dry rot and removal of our east wall; then to rebuild the kitchen, two bathrooms and the upper deck. I still have nightmares about ‘Living Under a Blue Tarp’ , ‘Where is the Microwave Today?’ and then ‘Sanity Still Prevails!’ When the year of continuous disruptions had past, the frame- of- mind…

Life is more than the routine work/home/sleep cycle. Whether we realize it or not, our lives are sorted into a plethora of accountabilities; personal areas, health and family, children, relationships, creative hobbies, spiritual growth, continuing education and learning, domestic chores, holidays, crisis management, hockey or soccer games and personal recreation. This is a lot to maintain! For personal growth and optimum health one needs to find the balance. Feng shui has a tool called the ba-gua, which divides the life…

In the case of the milking stool, it was originally his great-grandmother’s, from the…
