Easter Feng Shui Tips! Yes, each holiday is a chance to renergize your intentions and enhance an area of your life that may be lagging or challenging. Its even a chance to just have the best holiday ever.

For Easter, you might try:

A round or oval table is the best to encourage the easy flow of conversation; if you have a rectangular table, soften the hard edges with a white tablecloth.
Avoid seating a husband directly across from a wife, which is known as confrontational seating.

Decorate the table with a Feng Shui color scheme that includes blue for calmness, green for new beginnings, white for clarity, and gold for power.
Place fresh flowers in the room to symbolize growth and rebirth, preferably in front of a mirror, to symbolically double their positive energy.
Avoid wearing red at your dinner. This color represents the hot Feng Shui Fire Element, and adding more heat could lead to family arguments.
Colorful Easter eggs on your dining, coffee, or foyer table in a bowl signifies creativity, fertility, and good luck.

I place Easter eggs on a wreath on my front door or in a basket near the door.  It signifies new beginnings, hatching new ideas or birthing something new.  You can also place intentions in them or money inside for added luck.

Happy Easter filled with Abundance!

Well, its the new year and we are into Spring.  Many events are underway but if you have some coming up, there are some things you should know.

Feng Shui has so many applications. I use it as a practitioner in everything I do.  I came out of a sales/marketing background where I organized over 100 events a year.  From running surgical courses, conducting sales training programs, putting together sales award meetings, I was the queen of event planning with no formal training.  I learned on the job but with plenty of resources at my disposal.  I could call up the home office and ask for brochures, extra graphics.  I had a budget to fly in the top people to present at my events.

Now, as an entrepenuer its a bit different.  Having to be cost conscious has made me even more creative.  With my feng shui background, I add a higher level of energy to everything so it has a better feel and flow to it.  My results are always so much more powerful and successful using feng shui.

If you are in this position, my tips will be helpful.  If not and you have unlimited funds and access to experts, you will still get some good tips.

Key Tips for Successful Event Planning:

1. Set an Intention.  As you would write out goals for a business plan, intentions are a strong source of energy.  They help to set things in motion.  Your thoughts have a profound effect on your results.
2. Write Intentions in present tense.  In feng shui, everything is about the present moment as it is all we have.  Past is gone, future not here yet.  It is more powerful to say, “My event is highly successful in everyway”.  You can be more specific if you choose.  Be sure to stay away from words like” I hope or I wish…”.
3. Place your Intentions on a red piece of paper and post on a prominent wall in your office so you see it often.  It will remind you of what you intend to happen.  Red is a high prosperity color and adds energy to everything. Placing it in the South will bring Fame to your event.  On the Southeast wall will bring Money.
4. See your event as Completed.  Act as if.  Olympic athletes know this.  They see the end goal and work their way back.  Have a vision.  Write it down with all the steps that it took to make the event a success.
5. Use Red.  Keep a red journal, diary, notebook, of all your plans or details for the event.  Red is a high energy and success color.  If doing a table display, use red tablecloths.  Add some red to your marketing brochures or emails. Wear Red at your event.
6. Add the five elements. Wood, Earth, Metal, Fire, and Water are used in Feng shui for balance and harmony.  You can use them in decorating for your event, your table display, meeting, etc.  You can use the five elements in your marketing materials, website, or ads for your events.

Money Tip:  Black, White, and Green and good colors for new business or promoting something new!  I recently had a poster done for a client in these colors for his upcoming event in April 2015.

Wood can be plants and flowers; Earth would be crystals or ceramics or earth colors:  Metal would be computers, devices, equipment, or pastel colors, creams, whites;  Fire is Red or candles or lighting which are often used in weddings or party events; Water is actual water, mirrors, or reflective surfaces. Even pictures of water count.  Black and Blue are water colors.  You can decorate your event or wear any of these colors of the five element spectrum as well.

I run a monthly dog meetup in Austin, TX.  Austin Yorkshire Terrier Meetup Group.  If doing a fund raiser, I might wear a red t-shirt.  If giving a talk, often bring a plant or flowers for the table or podium.

Hope these are helpful and much success in your event planning!

Feng Shui May Be the Path to Office Harmony

Memphis Business Journal

Back in 2000 when I first began my feng shui practice full-time, I was interviewed by the Memphis Business Journal and was on their cover for that month.  I was excited coming out of the corporate world into the life of an entrepreneur to have this coverage .  I had been helping my friends for over a year at no charge who had businesses with the new feng shui knowledge I had gained.  Their results were astonishing.  With few techniques I suggested, their businesses turned around over night.  I was excited to begin helping others.

Having spent the previous 18 yrs. in medical sales as a highly  successful sales rep, manager, and leader, I knew I could  help lagging businesses.

I am a problem solver and  like combining East and West methods or using as many tools as possible to solve a situation.  I love helping businesses  make money and achieving their ultimate goal of being happy with what they are doing for a living.  14 yrs. later I am still doing the work I love. Whether you work in an office or out of your home, if you are not reaching your goals, there are solutions.
