ENERGY
& BALANCE
FUNG SHUI
Energy
and balance.
Many of
us find ourselves out of balance at certain times of our lives.
This can be because of change that has been unexpected, loss,
disappointment or something else that has disturbed the natural flow of
our lives can cause an imbalance in our chi and needs to be addressed.
Sometimes
it is difficult to return to a harmonious balance immediately but if we
work at it and work out what exactly it is that is disturbing us, we can
cure the situation and once again bring positive chi into our lives.
There are
many tools that we can use to do this, at its simplest we can simply
create a routine for ourselves of relaxation, good food, making sure
that we get plenty of time outside as well as in, spending some time in
nature or near a large body of water like the sea or a lake, and work
through meditation and positive thinking to put the past behind us, and
once again find that level place in our lives that we can use to move
gracefully into the future.
At this
time we should pay particular attention to our home, and the areas that
we spend most of our time in, and make sure that they are un-cluttered
and pleasant.
People
often think that de cluttering means letting that of almost anything and
living in a minimalist way, but this is not necessarily so.
A house can be full of all sorts of things and yet be so well
organised that it is still light and airy, so that the chi or energy can
flow easily from one door to another.
Adding
fresh flowers to the home and healthy plants can insure very positive
energy surrounding us, but you must always be sure that the plants are
happy and healthy, and that once the flowers are beginning to die they
should be immediately put out.
Our homes
are one of the most important tools we have for re-energising and
rebalancing our lives
There are
many other tools that we can use to re-energise and balance ourselves.
Crystals
can be placed about the home that will empower us and release negative
energy. Perhaps the most
useful of these are:-Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Clear Quartz and Selenite or
Kyanite
Wearing
certain crystals will also help our energy levels, and even the colours
that we wear can have a very positive and beneficial effect.
Wearing
loud and bold colours at a time when we are feeling off-balance may have
a less than positive effect.
Wearing harmonious and toning colours can help
empower us and can have a very healing effect.
Without doubt one of the most healing colours
to wear when in a less than positive mood is green, or many shades of
green blended together with gold.
Knowledge
about crystals is easily obtained these days and there are many good
books that will help you find the crystals that are ideal for you at any
particular time in your life.
Going to
a Crystal Healer will also help, as she will intuitively know which
crystals you need at any given time, and will advise you how to place
them in your home to focus positive energy.
Reiki
healing is an excellent way of balancing your energy levels, going for a
Reiki session will open your life to positive energies at a time when
you're feeling negative or fractured in some way.
If your
state of mind is the result of illness then Reiki is one of the best
ways of putting your foot firmly on the path to recovery!
On the
face of it, all these different modalities seem to have nothing to do
with feng shui, but actually they are all part of what makes up the
whole.
Feng shui
can be said to be a series of things that we can do and be aware of to
help us in our lives, to empower us and to bring balance to our lives
and of course to heal loss.
Follow
the simple and basic rules of feng shui and you will soon feel the
benefits!
