TIPS TO FENG SHUI YOUR OFFICE & BOOST YOUR PROSPERITY
by Vicky White
Feng Shui (fung-shway) is the study of arranging
your environment to enhance your life.
Every minute of every day your
environment is either supporting you or draining you. Feng Shui teaches you to join
forces with your environment to make living your best life
effortless.
Not only does your environment
reflect your consciousness, but also the flow of energy in your home and
workplace determines the overall quality of your life and its
outcome.
By balancing the energy in your
environment, your own energy will be in harmony, and you will draw
to you, people and opportunities that reflect this balance. Your environment indirectly
determines the type of relationships, finances, career
opportunities, etc you attract.
Because we spend so much time in our
workplaces, these spaces have a huge influence on our lives. Here is a list of basic feng
shui enhancements you can make in your office space to support you
in creating an environment of success.
1. Clear the clutter in your office
Clutter
is anything unfinished, unused, unresolved, tolerated or
disorganized.
When we
clear our clutter we get into our power and create a space for new
things to come into our lives.
You will have more energy and creativity to design your life
to reflect your authentic self.
Clutter is like emotional
constipation - it bogs you down. Filing cabinets need to be
regularly purged and desktops kept clutter free.
2. Place your
desk in the ‘power’ position
The ideal
placement for your computer and desk is in a position that allows
you to see the door of your office. If this is not possible, you
can restore good Feng Shui by arranging a mirror that gives you a
clear view of the door.
A small convex mirror designed for use on car side mirrors
can be purchased and stuck to the edge of your computer. Cost, about
$3.00.
3. Make sure
everything at your desk allows you to be
comfortable.
A good
combination glare screen/radiation filter to prevent headaches and
eyestrain, a comfortable chair that doesn’t squeak, comfortable
keyboard and arm position, a mouse that fits your hand etc. Anything
that causes you discomfort will drain your energy.
4. Keep your computer
clutter-free
How is
your Inbox? Create Folders to file emails you want to refer to. If you see hundreds of
emails when you open your Inbox, you will feel overwhelmed. Of course, it is important
to regularly go through all your folders to delete emails no longer
needed. Once a week check your Deleted Items folder and empty.
Is your
Desktop full of shortcuts to programs from a past life? Do you have programs on your
computer you never use?
Computers are great clutter collectors, and like us, they
work better if we keep them decluttered.
5. Enhance your Prosperity
Corner.
As you
enter the door of your office, the far left hand corner is your
Wealth and Prosperity corner.
What do you have there?
Clutter in this area will definitely be affecting your
prosperity.
This
would be a good place for a small tabletop fountain, a valuable item
or even an affirmation of what you want to attract. Blues, purples and reds are
the colors of prosperity.
Can you include one of these colors in something that makes
you feel prosperous?
6. Create a nourishing
view
What do
you see when you look up from your desk? If you see a brick wall,
this could explain why you feel stuck! Paint the wall a color you
love, hang a favorite painting or poster. Make sure what you see as
you are thinking, uplifts you and nourishes your creativity.
7. Clean your windows, dust and
vacuum
What do
you see when you look out your window? Is it a clear view, or do
you look at the world through a murky lens? Regularly cleaning your
office, and emptying garbage and recycling bins daily will keep the
energy fresh.
8. Buy a healthy
plant
A plant
will bring life into your workspace and will also absorb toxins in
the air.
9. Separate your workspace
If you
must have your workspace in your bedroom, try to partition it off
with a screen. Work and
sleep are two conflicting energies. Having a relaxing sleep will
enhance your work time.
10. Repair or replace broken
objects
Anything that isn’t working represents a block to the flow of
energy. Light bulbs,
clocks, doors that don’t open smoothly – why risk not being at your
best when you are putting so much into your creations.
By
consciously creating your environment, your environment in turn will
create a quality of life to support you in reaching your
potential. Feng Shui
has a powerful effect on your life – whether used alone, or used in
conjunction with healing work or your personal growth path.
