Feng Shui Tips For Your Office:



There are serveral things to take into account when your looking to design your office using feng shui. If you spend a lot of time in your office like I do. You should have harmony in your office space. There are a lot of things to consider and use in order to achieve your goals of bringing harmony to your office.

The main thing that we have to keep in mind is the energy flow within the space. The energy (chi) is the life force. The energy flow should be able to flow freely through your office space so you are able to think and preform without confussion.


Another important aspect to consider is the position your desk will be placed. Your desk should allow you to sit facing the door with your back pointing to the wall. You should be able to easily see if someone enters the office as well have a wall for protection.


Although your desk should allow you to easily see the door, it should not be placed directly across from it. A desk placed directly across from the door allows all the energy to flow directly to you. And another important thing to keep in mind is your desk position it should not be facing a wall since the wall would act as an obstacle.


Another important point the area that is directly in front of where you sit should be clear and without objects disturbing you. This space should allow your energy to flow freely without obstacles, in order for you to easily achieve your projects and goals.


The last point office machines and other objects should never be at the center of the room. Objects in general and specially machines are an obstacle for the flow of energy which ideally should be able to travel flow within the room.

Office shape is also important and it should be square or rectangle shaped. It should also have a window which allows the entrance of natural light in the room. These aspects would help you feeling relaxed and comfortable in your office.

Second step Paint:


The cheapest way to update a home is PAINT that is your foundation. Paint gives you a blank template to start with and all you will have to do is connect the dots. Once paint is done make sure you update all light switch plates, door handles and receptacle covers.

Yes! Your Going Green






You have made the choice to save mother earth and you want to do your share by going green. That's an excellent choice, but I'm hear to tell you to be environmental friendly is not so easy so start out small and in stages. Let's take that bull by the horns and get this party started.


Start with one room and make little changes. You can start with energy efficient light bulbs.
Since the bathroom is typically filled tons of toxic chemicals let’s begin there with a few quick steps to make your bathroom more environmentally friendly.


The key word in this room is water: This is one thing we want to save by eliminate how much water you literally flush down the drain by using a dual-flush toilet, a low-flow shower head, and a low-flow faucet aerator. You can save thousands of gallons of water a year with these simple changes.


It's time to clean: When cleaning your bathroom, try to avoid using disposable products use washable rags and scrubbers instead. Select cleaning products that are environmentally friendly and refill the bottles rather than buying new ones each time.


Don’t stop with green cleaning products but go all out and look for green products for your entire bathroom. That includes paints, bamboo is much more economical and better for the environment than some other fabrics so look for bamboo towels. Look for plastic products that are PVC free to avoid the toxins they release. Select toilet paper that is made from recycled material. Use as many recycled or reclaimed products as possible to create a unique and pleasing bathroom environment that is both better for you and the environment.


Don't forget to start to recycle if you have not started yet.
