Feng Shui expert: 8 TOP tips to let life energy flow in the house of office

“As you are, so is your home. And as your home is, so are you,” the Chinese say. That can be quite confronting when you stumble over piles of papers, clothing lying around, bulging bookcases and dusty trinkets. What does that say about you? In this article you will find the meaning of Feng Shui and tips and rules to make your house Feng Shui-proof so that the life energy can flow optimally.

A home is not just a place with four walls and a roof, but the ultimate place to express your identity. However, the reverse is also true: it is also the most important factor that influences your well-being, your happiness and the lightness with which you live. Your house and the things you have collected in it say a lot about who you are and where you are in your life. And also how you treat yourself. If there is a lot of disorder in your house, it creates chaotic chi. That chaotic chi in turn creates disorder, chaos and confusion in yourself and in your life. The more stuff, the greater the chance that you experience your life as unnecessarily heavy. Feng Shui helps you to let the life energy flow in your home.

Minimize for a lighter life

That does not mean that Feng Shui pursues a minimalist lifestyle. In contrast. Because we feel richer and more fulfilled when we are surrounded by things that are carefully made of beautiful materials. Objects that evoke a loving memory and are dear to us make us happy. They help us determine our identity. In a very minimalistic interior, there is no healthy emotional frame of reference. That can have a negative effect on your awareness of yourself.

Objects that stand in the way or are broken or worn out, by the way, constantly send out negative signals and take away the space to live in freedom. Because every time you see them, they unconsciously trigger a negative emotion. This puts an unnecessary burden on your life. It is therefore better to ban them from your home and from your life.

A healthy Chi

For a healthy energy in the house, Feng Shui advises to leave room to move. So that the chi, the life energy, can cheerfully and unhindered provide your whole house and thus your whole life with new zest for life . This way you not only keep your house, but also your body and life in a healthy condition.

8 tips and rules from Feng Shui for space in your home and a lighter life

1. Your home is your personal kingdom

Do you make your own conscious choices about how you handle your home? Who lets you in; what items come into your house; where you put them. Or do you blindly follow trends, advice from others or the opinion of your partner? When you become aware of the control you have over your own domain, you are more powerful and independent in life. Honoring your home as the personal kingdom it is makes it easier for you to see yourself as the queen or king in control.

2. Be selective

Because we find it difficult to say goodbye to a certain period in life; of the person we were; or from the one we have shared life with, we make excuses to delay decisions. This way you can tell yourself that you might still be able to use that old blanket for something, but the real reason you don’t get rid of it is that it reminds you of your deceased cat who always slept on it.

Most Important Feng Shui Tips for Your Home and Life

Well-known excuses:

  • ‘I’m going to make it soon’
  • ‘I’m saving it for my kids’
  • ‘Maybe it will be worth a lot’
  • ‘It’s going to be fashion again’
  • ‘Maybe I still need it’

In doing so, you burden your life with baggage that belongs to someone else or to another time and that does not make a valuable qualitative contribution to your life. By being more aware of this, you create space for your own form of lighter life.

3. Choose quality

Rather buy a single item that is carefully made of beautiful materials. And from which you also know where it comes from, instead of a cheap mass product of poor quality. Such products devalue the energy in your home and thereby devalue yourself.

4. Discover a deep wish

As long as you don’t know what you’re doing it for, cleaning up remains something that “should” and not something you are motivated to do from within.

If your study is clutter-free, there would finally be room for your long-cherished desire to paint. Research into yourself what you dream of doing or experiencing. The more concrete and clearer your wish, the greater your motivation to make room for that wish and to improve the quality of the furnishing of, for example, your office.

5. Honor That Makes Happy

When it comes down to it, the things that really make you happy can be counted on the fingers of one hand. More stuff does not mean more happiness: you will find that much more in the small things. The softness of a wool sweater. The shine of a wooden table. The way the sun’s rays draw patterns on your wall. That one picture of your baby. If you honor what makes you happy, you lose much less attention to things that don’t deserve it. Give that one photo a place of honor and don’t hide it between a multitude of images.

6. Create regularity and rituals

Neglect makes dull and indifferent. It also draws life force from a space or object. Therefore, choose fixed times to tidy up and clean. Welcome the light into your home when you open the curtains. And thank your house when you close them again. Regularly incorporating moments for care and attention for your home will quickly raise the frequency of the energy in your home. Even a small ritual like greeting your home every time you come back in quickly improves your relationship with your home. Your house thus changes from utensil to a sacred place.

7. Cleanse the room and reward yourself

When you’re done cleaning up and organizing a space, it’s always good to refresh the energy in that space. Open windows and doors against each other and let the air blow through, and wipe everything with soapy water. Cleaning on a deeper level is done with the help of good quality incense or sounds of healing music. The crowning glory can be a beautiful, fresh bunch of flowers.

Don’t forget to reward yourself after a clean-up hour with a nice cup of tea, a walk in the woods or something else that makes you happy. Set a time limit ranging from 15 minutes to an hour, then stop cleaning up, and celebrate the victory over yourself. Take a deep breath and admire the result achieved – even if it’s just one drawer. This gives energy and courage to tackle the next job.

8. Make life force visible

Often a house is full of things that are not alive, that have not been brought to life. Beautiful, green plants or pets remind us with their presence that we are living beings and like to be surrounded by life and vitality. This not only makes a positive contribution to the quality of energy, but keeps your consciousness much more in the here and now. More grounded.

Better distribution of your energy – 3 tips

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

By better distributing your energy, you can increase your quality of life step by step. Let’s see.

Life Force Energy: Is Someone Draining Yours? — LIFE. CULTURE. PEOPLE.

1. Start saving energy

We all get a limited amount of energy every day. And we have to divide this energy over everything we want to do that day.

It’s like taking your phone off the charger in the morning . The battery is full, and with this charge you should last all day.

Many of us spend a lot of energy on things that don’t serve us at all. Think of continuous worrying, walking around with an increased stress level, overloading the body with too much food or alcohol and harboring negative thoughts.

It’s like picking up your phone in the morning and streaming video non-stop over 5G – you won’t last the afternoon with your battery. And that’s how many people feel during the day too – as if the battery is running out .

What can you do to prevent your internal battery from draining too quickly?

  1. Invest in your sleep schedule . Good and sufficient sleep helps you to fully charge the battery and keeps the battery in good condition.
  2. Work to “live in your head” less . Constantly worrying and thinking takes much more energy than you expect. Your brain uses a lot of energy. By living more in the moment and ‘in your body’ you save a lot of energy.
  3. Take care of your body with a healthy diet . Eat enough but not too much. Your digestive system also uses up a lot of energy. And if your diet is of moderate quality, you can save on this. Eat vegetables, fruits and unprocessed carbohydrates (sweet potato, whole grains, brown rice, etc.). Drink little or no alcohol and limit refined sugar.
  4. Sports more . By exercising you reduce stress and invest in the health of the battery. Yes, exercising is exhausting. But in the long run, it will help you boost your battery so you have more energy to spend on a daily basis.
  5. meditate . To reduce stress and train your mindfulness. In this way you manage to be calmer and lighter in life, with fewer judgments and less worrying.
  6. Live a Less Distracted Life . Every time you are distracted from something, it costs your brain a lot of energy to switch and switch back again. Rather work in large blocks of time without distraction, then you will be more productive and use less valuable energy.

Make the most of the energy you have been given today. Don’t waste it on distractions, stress and worry. But use it to experience life that makes you happy.

Fine, and what else?

2. Tap into a new source of energy

I call it a pepper in your ass .

It’s funny when you think about it . One minute you feel low on energy. You feel a little ‘meh’, a little lifeless. And then I come to you and I say: “Everything is arranged, you have three weeks off and you can leave tomorrow to a tropical island with three people that you choose.”

And suddenly you dart around the house making calls, packing your bag and dancing for joy.

At first you felt lifeless and low on energy. And now you are suddenly bursting with energy! What happened? Where does that suddenly come from?

Simple: you have a lot more energy than you think . But much of this energy is only accessible if you have a mission . It’s like your phone starts to run out of battery when you just have a power bank in your bag. You plug in the power bank, but you get a message that you can only use this energy for a specific app.

Your specific app is a mission. A target. A pepper in your ass .

Pursuing a mission gives you a sense of urgency and play. The progress you make also brings you great satisfaction. And that just releases a lot of energy.

And so it is possible that you can still feel so lifeless one moment, and the next moment you jump out of your chair and hit it. You tap into a new source of motivation so that you can go on for much longer.

The question is, of course: how do you find that mission?

3. Give yourself time to recover

Our culture adores people who are always running. People who are successful and productive. They seem to be able to keep all the balls in the air.

But most people are not like that . That also counts for me.

And it’s important to realize that. Because different people need different ways of dealing with life. Running endlessly doesn’t work for most people . And even if it seems so, such a period is often followed by overstrain, depression or burnout.

Logical. Because we have to take the time to recover. And it is important that we take this seriously . You don’t want to live like you’re running a marathon. You want to live like a surfer .

What does that mean? That you take the waves of your life like you are a great surfer. There are periods when you work hard, months when you get a lot done and you feel super energetic. And then it gradually turns, and you enter a period where you have to take time for recovery.

That’s very normal. Life is rhythm, a wave motion . And you make it easier on yourself when you surf the waves, and take time to recover between waves. You let the waves do most of the work, then you achieve the most.

So?

  • Respect your boundaries.
  • Realize that every burst of energy also needs a moment of recovery.
  • Accept the wave in your life, even if you are not waiting for it at all. Sometimes you have more energy, sometimes less. Sometimes you need to step back and recover to avoid long-term damage.
  • Build moments of recovery into your daily life as well. An hour of hard work, a few minutes break. A busy day yesterday, today a little more relaxed. Worked out hard, now a few days of rest.
  • If you notice that you are suddenly tired more often, just sleep more. Your body tells you what it needs. Respect that need, you are not a machine.

When you overload a battery, bad things happen . He overheats, just stops working or even starts smoking.

These are all things you want and can avoid. And you do that by making recovery important.
