Feng Shui CrazyMaking My World A Better One

As I watch children going back to school and away for college a few weeks ago - I can understand why some parents have anxiety seeing their kids drive away with most of their things with them in their new found freedom and a car.  My girlfriend from here - bought some new buick lucerne custom floor mats for her son’s car because she wanted to give him the best and like all parents we want the best for our kids.   Which brings us back to feng shui for life - not only for ourselves but also for our children - especially those going away for work and school.

Feng Shui for Life is about welcoming the positive and dispelling the negative - so if you know that your kid didn’t do so well in his first year of college - it’s time to take a look at the area he studies in and the environment he is in.  Say he was in a room that is dark and has no open windows -  now how can someone do well in such an environment right?  and it’s a pretty easy rectification when it comes to that right?  And as for the car they will be zipping around the city in - well - you know what to do - have the mechanic check it out thoroughly - change oil - undercoat the car if you must - and make sure the tires are good and still has thread on them and if you feel wealthy and oblige - you can get them the lovely Buick lucerne custom floor mats  like the ones my g/f bought for her son.  In fact, after seeing the custom mat - I might get some for myself - I do like the Lloyd custom carpet floor and cargo mats.

The spouse saw some very good deals for some samsung lcd televisions at our local electronic store - and like all men - they loved their electronics and how can they give up a good deal when they see one.  So he wants to buy one - and change the projection tv - at the basement to a LCD tv - because he said it would save a lot of space and also - the picture is so much better than our 56″  projection tv.   I totally agree with him - but when we got our projection tv - it wasn’t cheap either - so what are we going to do with the old tv - if we get the new one - for he knows  - I don’t like a lot of electronics at home - neither is he going to move it to another part of the house - because he wasn’t going to disturb my feng shui.  So what to do?  and why don’t I want so much electronics in the house?   because the energy is too much to disperse at one time.  So my solution was - to first sell off the projection tv  and then he can go ahead and buy the samsung tv.  So that was what we did - so if your spouse wants to change to another lcd tv - this is what I suggest that you do - get rid of the old one first and then let him buy a new one - no fighting about it - and it’s fair.

So we got broken into a few weeks ago - first time in 6 yrs especially since we are on Main Street - you really wouldn’t think that we would be broken into - but we did.  Lucky for us - we had our basement door double barred and the security alarm and alert was working.   But if the burglars did get in - and damaged or stolen stuff - we do have  insurance for the store too.   So someone asked me - but I thought you had feng shui your store - *rolled eyes”  in which I told that person that even if I did feng shui the store - it doesn’t mean that it wouldn’t be broken into.  We had taken all precautions and that’s the best one can do - in a situation like that.  And like I said  - insurance would  be used - if necessary - but feng shui doesn’t mean that you don’t have to put in security alarm or lock your doors - common sense need to prevail here.

Success ! who doesn’t want to be successful right?  But how does one measure success?  with how much you have?  with how much love ones and friends you have? or is it your health that you measure your success with?   i don’t know about other people but for me - my child comes first - as long as she is healthy, happy and we can afford to get her things she needs - and some things she wants - that to me is the most successful.  The comes our health - happiness and money comes actually last.  I’m not one who needs a lot of money nor be a millionaire - as long as we pay our bills - don’t owe anyone any money - have the necessities and a small little nest for rainy days - that to me is happiness - and then comes a very successful life.

Some folks wants to be successful in their career or be making lots and lots of money, some folks wants to marry into a rich family - while others - they want a bigger house, bigger car, bigger garden, bigger office and many holiday trips around the world.  Some people fill their homes with Feng Shui amulets and make a shrine out of it - but you and I know that Feng Shui shouldn’t be practiced this way.   Yes, we can use some feng shui to attract wealth or make life go a lot more smoothly for us - but to be overly greedy - that’s just not my practice.

So when someone asked me - why am i not rich - since I practice Feng Shui - I told that person - I’m far from rich - in the monetary sense - but I’m a lot more calmer - happier and money doesn’t really bother me much - my health and those of my family and loved ones does - and since we are mostly happy and healthy - I would have to say - we are quite the success with Feng Shui eh.

My girlfriend just turned her sun porch into another guest room for emergencies - but even in the summer - it can get very cold - so she said - plus she wanted to feng shui her sun porch/guest room - so what should she do - she asked.  First I checked out the sun porch in the evening - and true enough - it got really cold real fast.  So I recommended that she want to put some heat into this room - a warm room is a must even if the sun porch wasn’t an emergency guest room.   So the next time I was there - she had an infrared heater

in there - and true enough the sun porch was so much more warmer and nicer already.  But having seen the heater myself - I thought of getting it too for our home.  It is said to only cost like 14 cents/hr - so less than $2 for the entire night.   I will go chat with someone live and find out more about the free shipping.  So if you have a sun porch - and want to feng shui it - don’t forget to keep that sun porch warm.

Dark corners usually means negative energy - that’s why how some people would think that there is something eerie in dark rooms and dark corners.  Ask any kids to go sit or play at a dark corner - and they would definitely not want to go.  Not because the corner is haunted but I am seriously guessing it’s because of the negative energy built within that dark corner.   So armed with my  power supplies and extension cords - I started checking out all the dark corners of my house and room and lighted it up with night lights and other light elements.  What about when your child is at summer camp for a week?  do you light up the room - yes  - so they said.  It’s good to light up the room with a night light.  They say to turn on a light and scare the bad chi away from the dark corners of your home.  So if your child complains about scary or eerie corner - don’t go ghost hunting but it just means that the corner has bad chi or stagnant.

So I wanted to send some friends in the states some feng shui t-shirt for their camping trip next month - and i decided to send t-shirts from Personal Creations because i found a coupon code for them ! woohoo!!  25% off  and ended up buying other stuff for my kid as well - from lunch boxes to rain poncho and a wallet for her going back to school preparation.  Anyhow, I decided to feng shui t-shirts for my friends and myself because what better gift to give to someone - who loves feng shuiing everything by wearing a feng shui verse or two for encouragement and safety.   So yes! for team spirit or even a vacation - you can all feng shui your t-shui by using personal creations.

Lots of fresh air - lots of swimming - lots of cleaning out the clutter is my recommendation for staying healthy this summer and just a little of bbq food - for me !  I’ve put on 5 pounds!!! during the winter - so time to get me some  diet pills that work and lots of sunshine!!  It’s shocking how one can put on so much weight - when you are doing nothing during the winter - and I really think it’s time for me to look into taking some diet pills because boy! it’s hard for me to resist all those good food.  So besides cleaning out the house and staying positive - I have to admit this time I need help.  5 pounds is a lot!

The cousin bought a used four wheeler cheap  from the local yard sale for our nephew but it needed some  ATV Parts - before the nephew can use it.   The toys kids get these days are really amazing - after all this isn’t a very cheap toy but he’s not my kid - so I’m going to hold my tongue.  Anyhow, the cousin had asked for ways to feng shui the four wheeler - so the kid can ride safely on the new toy - in which my reply was to get the best atv parts for the four wheeler - now that would be the first thing one should do - and the rest is secondary - well, teach the young fellow to ride safely is another.  Love my cousins - but truth be told - unless they can get good quality atv parts - I wouldn’t let the kid ride on it just yet.

It is said that hanging pictures of the entire family in the living room wall is potent.  So to feng shui your walls at home you should have happy family pictures - especially those on holidays.   It creates feng shui togetherness for the entire family and creates safety for the entire family as well.  And the thing to avoid hanging on your wall is anything that is depressing or ugly - such as monsters or dracula.
