We went strawberry picking! Nothing tastes better than the local grown. Sliced strawberries over lemon pound cake is my personal favorite. Did you know that strawberries are one of the 10 best foods for your skin? They contain both soluble and insoluble fiber and NO FAT. Go to your local farm stand or Farmer’s market and get some soon.

Recently I met with a client who experienced constant sleep interruption. She had removed the TV from the bedroom and though sleep improved, she still had some interrupted sleep. She had a large bedroom mirror that faced the bed. I advised her to remove it and that was the end of her sleep problems!

A client recently wondered why her once thriving home business was failing. After seeing her home, I told her that the old, stagnant pond in the wealth corner of her property symbolized her income…STAGNANT! I advised her to either fill in the pond and plant wildflowers, or revitalize it with a fountain so that the “flow” would be continuous.

Results were almost immediate. Within a month of beginning the work of cleaning the pond and adding a fountain, she had new accounts and the money began to flow in!

It’s time to plant a tree! Trees clean pollution from the air, add oxygen for us to breathe, prevent erosion of topsoil, keep us cooler in the summer, and provide a wind break (especially pine trees placed on the north side). Trees give us a variety of fruit and nuts and provide a home for many beautiful birds. They even provide privacy and can block an unsightly view! Lastly, they soften and reduce sound pollution.

Planting trees is good Feng  Shui!

With the onset of warm weather, remember that this is when the insects are breeding. If there are places on your property that have standing water, mosquitoes can breed there. Watch carefully for ticks…they are tiny but can deliver Lyme disease. Check your pets carefully after they have been outdoors. Use a fine toothed comb to go through long haired animals. Make sure your pets have flea and tick medicine at all times, not just in the summer. If you or your pet pick up a tick, remove all of it carefully with tweezers and take it to be tested. Check your insect repellent for tick protection and in the woods wear clothing to cover exposed skin.

An ounce of protection is worth a pound of cure.

Yes, you can even apply Feng Shui to your garage sale. Setting up your tables; arranging the way items are laid out; positioning yourself to see everything and to be helpful to customers; arranging items by color, texture, and function; and even cleaning, polishing, and minor repairs that will show items in their best light. Lots of colorful signs, balloons, or flags also help to catch the attention of passers-by.

I can help you make the most of your garage sale…just ask!

The latest research shows two important factors that affect your sleep. First, there must be total darkness. Even the illuminated numbers on the clock willcause a part of your brain to stay awake and alert! Also, the room should be at least 5 degrees cooler that the rest of the house. The body produces melatonin when it is cooler, which helps you sleep better.

Add these two factors to the Feng Shui rules of the bedroom and you will sleep a deep and healthy sleep. If you are new to Feng Shui, here are the rules: 1. No TV in the bedroom! 2. No computer in the bedroom! 3. Little or no books in the bedroom! 4. No mirrors that can be seen from the bed! 5. No ceiling fan hanging over the bed! 6. No bathroom opening directly into the bedroom!

If any of these are a problem in your home, and you aren’t getting the quality of sleep you desire, call me and I can help you solve the problem.

Many of us don’t realize that water conducts electricity. Why is this important? If there is an underground stream going under you house, you are more likely to suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome, sleeplessness, and lethargy. The reason is that your own energy field, which is by nature electromagnetic, is syphoned off by the moving water.

Before buying or building a house, it is a good idea to know about the water table under the surface of the land and the general geology of the area including the watershed!

Now is a good time to plan your gardens. Many of us are considering growing our own vegetables or adding more varieties to an established vegetable garden. Do your research on organic pest control and fertilizer so you will get the best and healthiest yield.

If you can’t wait to have a beautiful flower garden, consider a Feng Shui garden. It has a balanced shape and the colors and textures are carefully planned to enhance the positive energy flow on your property. Different plants and trees actually have different meanings! The life force energy of beautiful plants can really add value to your home and joy to your life!

Good gardens are good Feng Shui!

It’s time for a change of seasons. I think we are ready for all things new. From the economy to the weather we have complained too long! Open up the windows of your home for fresh air, and the windows of your mind for fresh new ideas. Bring down the cobwebs in your environment…inner and outer! As the sun gets stronger, lets let our positive thoughts grow.

Clean out all that you don’t need or don’t love. Someone else may need and love the things you are tired of so pass it on, sell it, or recycle it. Make room for a happier, better, more streamlined life!

Streamlining is good Feng Shui!

Here are some symptoms of a ghost-inhabited house.

Frequent light bulb changes. Electric items that seem to turn on and off by themselves. Appliances that seem to short circuit way too often. Unexplained noises…items moved without explanation. Temperature changes that are unexplained…etc. When something cannot be explained in a scientific way, that is the time to call in a space clearing expert to determine what is going on and to correct the situation.

I had the pleasure of speaking to 36 people last Thursday evening at Saratoga Continuing Education about my ghost/space clearing/entity work. It was an enthusiastic crowd with many wonderful questions and lots to share. Surprisingly, my two hour presentation really flew by! I have made some wonderful new friends and can’t wait until this FAll when I will once again be presenting this program. I hope to see you there!

If you want a better economy, think local. A stronger local economy ensures that you will ve able to have goods and services at a more reasonable price. Produce grown locally is healthier…it didn’t get picked green and trucked across the country. That saves fuel costs and ensures that local farmers will continue to exist for you. Personal relationships with local service providers means better service and they need good public relations. After all, these folks are your neighbors.

A flourishing local economy is good for all of us!
