wisdom is prevention
when I started practicing shui in our home, my changes were all cosmetic.
I didn’t *get* space clearing or the 5 elements, so I avoided them all.
I also knew nothing about chi challenges.
curiosity eventually got the better of me, and I cleaned our home top to bottom. I bought flowers and candles for every room. I scheduled play dates for our daughters and asked my husband to give me a couple hours alone at home. I wrote down every intention I had for our lives, and then off I went to do our home’s (and my!) first space clearing.
it was magic.
a couple weeks later, I was talking with a fitness instructor. she mentioned knowing the previous owners and shared how unhappy they’d been in the home – fighting constantly over money, kids, and everything else. after selling the house (to us), they divorced.
my mind was in full-tilt WHOA!
while we luckily hadn’t divorced, our first year in this home remains the only time my husband and I have ever said the “d” word to each other.
and it became my own testimony of why space clearing is imperative, especially if you’ve never done it.
eventually, I enrolled in a professional Feng Shui certification course – and when the teachers said they would address the bagua at the end of the program, I felt off-center. wasn’t it the starting point?
when one of my instructors started weaving the 5 elements into every conversation, I wanted to protest. this was out of my comfort zone, but I really wanted to understand shui so I pushed up my sleeves and dug in.
that was a steep learning curve, and it became one of the most exhilarating parts of shui for me to work with and now teach!
when I enrolled myself in another professional program, imagine the surprise I felt being introduced to chi challenges. I was startled by (a) how many “problems” our home had; and (b) how I’d been focusing on temporary fixes when the real culrpits were something else completely.
like most people new to shui, I thought if I could get my house looking “just right”, I would be able to avoid most BIG challenges, problems, disappointments – you know, life lessons.
turns out, that’s not the practice.
instead of gathering all the tips and quick fixes, I realized that any hope of prevention lies in understanding the wisdom.
shui-curious people spend so much time pushed around (even scared) by Feng Shui that they learn on Google or some post they scrolled past.
the thing is – there’s nothing out of your reach to fix, improve, mitigate or enhance.
the only thing missing is an understanding.
that’s where I come in.
I am currently teaching my course live to MAGNIFY the good already within your home. (class just started this week, so you can watch the replay and be totally caught up!)
we’re laying the important fundamentals out so well that when you leave, you’ll wonder why you were ever confused in the first place.
those notebooks of yours will be filled with so many ideas and nuggets for future inspiration, you’ll be surprised this is only a *scratching of the surface* course.
and.
you’ll walk into June feeling optimistic about your home and all the magic already around you.
the course details are here.
you can grab your seat here.
and then, what you can expect is by the end of May, your home will feel absolutely irresistible with potential.
