simple shui tip: move 27 things
whenever we move things, we disrupt tired energy patterns in our home. you know, thinking the same thoughts, living the same habits, having the same experience – repeat.
so…
whenever life starts feeling stale, move 27 things around.
don’t know where to start? I have a few ideas for YOU!
turn your vertically lined books to horizontal stacks (or horizontal stacks to a line-up!)
swap around drawers – linens, silverware, files in the desk
rearrange the kitchen cupboards
switch up the refrigerator shelves
push furniture an inch to the left or right (or completely into another room!)
switch lamps out to different rooms
move the chairs around your table
put everything dropped by the door back in its space
color-code your closet (or bookshelves!)
fold your towels a new way
organize the spice drawer / shelf
hang the dog leash somewhere that reminds you to take her for a walk
shake out the front door mat
edit the book pile by your bed
move your phone charger out of the bedroom
change the bulbs in a light to a brighter watt
flip a table arrangement so everything on the left is now on the right, and the right is now a lefty
move art on the walls around
turn all the shoes in your closet so they face one direction — with the toes facing out
bring a few candles that normally sit somewhere unlit into a room where you’ll light them
take everything off your desk, wipe it down, and put everything back (ahhh!)
switch out your bed linens or add a different quilt to the foot of the bed
move an entire room around and try it out for a week
move the fridge magnets around
put something different in front of a mirror so that it doubles something new in your life
sharpen your pencils
give the dog bed a hearty shake and fluff / rotate the cat condo
turn the plants around so the other side soaks up the sun
flip the rugs, mattress, or couch cushions!
want to kick this energy hack up a notch? try letting go of 27 things (for a seasonal purge). and if clearing clutter feels challenging, it’s a clue that effort and endeavor is sure to bring something entirely new into your reality — because BIG resistance is a signal the gain is even better! xo
