Ask Kathryn About Construction

  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

  So, it’s a brand new year; or maybe it’s a brand new something. Yet, you are stuck. Do you find yourself spending too much time looking at the (unknown) future, or looking back with regret! 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.

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,…

Music & Vibration to Relax

Music and Vibration to Relax Is the traffic getting worse; or is it my imagination? Do you experience a time-warp every time you get on the computer? Is there any leftover time to sort mail, do laundry, shop for groceries and gas up the car? So often, we get stuck in a rut and can’t find our way out! You are not alone!

Ask Kathryn About Lighting Fixtures

Style Your Home Can You Spot the DIFFERENCE?  Of course you can! A replacement dining room fixture can make, or break, the atmosphere! PIC ONE: The existing lighting fixture had 8 light bulbs, and yet, the lights were not directed anywhere; their glow dispersed everywhere.  Extra metal loops and curves distracted attention from neighboring artwork and collectibles.       PIC TWO: This lighting fixture has similar components, yet only 5 light bulbs. These bulbs are ‘protected’ by 60 small,…
