Someone has rightly said, you are what you eat. And it’s not hard to notice it after your thanksgiving dinner or drinking an energy drink after a tiring day. The same holds true about the place you live in, as they say, “you are your home and your home is you.” The Chinese Feng Shui, with more than 5000 years of time tested accuracy, has several proven accuracy tips to make your life better.
Feng Shui stands for wind and water and provides creative, fun and easy ways to design your surroundings to benefit your love life, family bonding, finances and career. Today, as we spend half of our lives working in our office,it is also important to keep your workplace decoration in harmony with your home’s environment. The placement of your desk plays a significant role in your success. No matter whether you are running a home based business, or run a publicly traded company you desk is the most important aspect in determining your financial success.
Feng shui works in a very different manner. When we have a million thoughts clogging our minds, you get stressed. Your mind gets bogged down and you are unable to think. But as we list all our problems on a piece of paper, our mind begins to clear, tasks get prioritized and eventually gets completed. Furthermore, when our mind is free, there is a scope for new ideas and concept to evolve. If we analyze the thought “you are your desk and your desk is you,” if your desk is full of clutter like your mind there is no room for anything else.
Some of the Feng Shui Tips by Tej Kohli are given below:
1. Decorate your surroundings with art and accessories that makes you happy. Feng Shui advices you to use things which you find useful, functional or symbolic. You can be very creative here using things related to your nature of work someway or the other.
Avoid keeping anything behind your office door which obstructs it from opening completely. You certainly don’t want anything to come in the way of your success.
Never sit with your back towards the door. If nothing can be done about it, hang a mirror on the wall so you can easily see who’s entering by simply raising your eyes. Being startled from behind creates insecurity and financial insecurity at your desk.
Try to place your desk on the diagonal line as far from your office door as possible. This is the command position which puts you in the command of all business affairs.
“File your piles” to get rid of unnecessary clutter. With your to-do list, you’ll remember everything that needs to be accomplished.
Design your desk in such a way so that everything you need is easily accessible just by spinning around in your chair.
Position your light source so it does not create a “shadow of darkness” on your work surface. While avoiding glare and using natural light if available, “illuminate” creative and financial possibilities. If feasible, direct light for optimum efficiency: right-handed people should have light directed over their left shoulder, left-handed people, over their right.
Have some chi (or energy) enhancers around you for creative and gentle motivation. In your home office, have kitty at your feet, a fish tank, live birds or plants. Too much trouble or impractical? Have them around in art form. Symbols of live chi are great Feng Shui! Keep the energy flowing with soothing music or windchime. Have your energy lifted with the fragrance of aromatic candles or diffused essential oils.
Now that you know how Feng Shui works and you have effective tips for positively enhancing the business aspects of your life, try the same concepts to your bed, stove, and everywhere that you spend a lot of time! Just think how your health, love and family relationships, and how you nurture yourself will improve all aspects of your life.
As you begin to spin on the magical wheel of life-success, know that it is contingent on all the “helpful people” that assist and continue to support you. Show appreciation and gratitude by giving back to your colleges, associates, family, friends, and community. We are all here to help each other spin in success and love. With sincerest wishes for great success, now, go get Feng Shoeing!
