Common Shapes for Decorating
When supporting an area within the Bagua, shapes are often the easiest to manipulate. The three common shapes:
SQUARES: If the life area you choose to enhance needs solid grounding, then squares would be the shape. You can choose one item, or you could arrange several items into a square shape. In addition, you can arrange several ’square-type’ pictures into one…

The mood of the day and the sky can transform these gems minute by minute. Nice to have a rainbow come out one afternoon! I don’t think anyone can take a bad picture of Niagara Falls! Timeless!

Rethinking the Bucket List
Are we happy yet? We have all been working for many years, saving our money, trying to plan for the future… and the unknown. The planning is one thing and life’s surprises are another! I’ve noticed that many people begin talking about their ‘bucket lists’ whenever a ‘big’ birthday rolls around. So, what is wrong with that? Nothing, but perhaps it is the little nudge you need to actually start the list.
Feng shui can help…
WHAT ARE YOU REALLY SELLING?
Is it a dream, a feeling or a life style?
When you have developed a product or service that you are proud of, the next step is to find buyers for the product. Expand on the basics and get creative; get under the hood and inside their heads.
When marketing tangible items, the consumer can actually visualize the product.
If it is a car, you can entice them to sit in the driver’s seat, feel…
The Empty Desk
What happens to productivity when you work beside an empty desk and chair? Are you happy that no one is in ‘your space’? Or, are you aware of the empty void nearby?
In feng shui, even an empty space has a place in time, no matter how inactive it may be. Could you really be affected working beside an empty desk?
In some cases, it depends on the reason why the desk is empty? Predecessor energy is…
When purchasing crystals as a ‘cure’, be sure to buy a quality product!

The Crystal Speaks!
When using a crystal for a cure, it applies energy-enhancing qualities. It can either gather or disperse chi-energy. So, how does that work?
Chi-energy is able to move very quickly through a long hallway. If the intention is to ‘slow down’ the aggressive chi, a crystal can be placed mid-way through the hall. The multi-facets on the crystal will absorb and…
The Hummingbirds have been most active lately! They are feeding constantly right now to get ready for their long migration. Because of their small size and high degree of activity, they lose body heat rather quickly, and need to digest their food quickly. They will eat for several days straight, storing up food and energy in their tiny bodies ready to make the long journey. I’ve seen them out almost every morning this week!
Did you know there are over…

What is Your Management Style?
Can you find a balance between being a hard-nosed, results-oriented boss and a hovering, nagging mother hen?
Of course you can! Each team manager may have the same goals, but they can take a different route to get there!
We are all unique. When we first become a manager, we try to mirror our most successful example, good or bad. When we’ve tripped up a few times, we recover, and then…
Decision Making: Back to Basics
The pros and the cons!
Decisions happen every day. Some are so small and mundane we hardly have to think twice.
The others? Those decisions can have ‘life-altering’ consequences and should be made more carefully.
Just recently, I was asked to do a guest article for a magazine! Great! The topic was interesting, but there was a dilemma: Should I make it more personal, or should I stick to the research-based facts?

What is this plant?
This is a cherry tomato! It is an Indigo Ruby F1 from Burpee Home Gardens. I thought this was a common cherry tomato when I purchased these small plants.www.burpeehomegardens.com
The fruit forms in a black colour, then the shady side turns a bit greenish. It must be a type of ‘organic variation’ tomato to get the colouration. The small print on the tag indicates ‘Intense indigo colour on the top of each tomato indicates healthy anthocyanins’.…
Small modifications with my existing items and the place went from nice to gorgeous! I have had many compliments during the past few days and am ecstatic that I was able to do this makeover. The rooms look AWESOME!
