Style Your Home: The Front Door

The front of your house is one of the opportunities you have to articulate a grand en-trance to your home. An entrance, perfectly balanced can cultivate a steady flow of wealth and prosperity right to your front door! Imagine what can happen if you get this right! As many of you know, I moved clear across the country last year into a cottage home (Circa 1982) and updating a few things at a time. This summer we finally decided on…

Ann Marie Holmes writes in her book, Earth Spirit Living, (I love this book!) -choosing the best plants to cultivate the BEST ENERGY for you and your space. I found this fascinating; and had to…

  View from CONDO unit in Vancouver: Is this dangerous to your health? Hello Kathryn,  We would like some advice as our unit looks out to a lane. Like a T intersection.

I’ve attached a photo.  Our unit is SW exposure.   We would like to know whether this is a bad thing and if so, what is the best solution.  Thanks Greg A: Hi…

Vision for a Good Life

Vision for a Good Life:    As we age and move into a slower pace, many of us finally have the time to stop, slow down and reflect. Reflecting on the past can bring warmth to heart, but for many – too much time often regurgitates past regrets and remorse. It doesn’t have to be that way! The time between work and when the kids/grand-kids come to visit is the time to look at your life! I’ve often talked about…

Earth People are on Middle Ground

Earth People Are On Middle Ground The element focus for this ‘earth property’ is actual earth. An earth-type personality is much like the tangible earth; solid, grounded and stable. Of all the Five Elements; wood, fire, earth, metal and water, the earth people are the ones standing on middle ground. In the working world, people with earth personalities are the best choice to train new employees. Their patience and relaxed nature is very non-threatening.  They have a knack to organize…

STUCK in the MUCK

Either way, you aren’t PRESENT to make any decisions! – No wonder that you’re stuck! I’ve been there. I understand. Moving forward has risk; fear of the unknown. The ‘unknown’ component often has a cost factor, a time factor and could have an impact…

CH-CH-Changes

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 A B C’s of Christmas

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…
