The Chinese milenar art of Feng Shui, has really a lot to teach, but recognizing life’s transformations and the 5 elements, are definitely for me, the best knowledge that any of us should acquire.
But using this “dance” of elements inside your home, doesn’t mean you can’t choose to make more sustainable choices, here are just a few:
- Using plants at home, when inside not only makes the air cleaner, but also gives a feeling of strength and growth, usually associated with tree element energy;
- Recycled furniture, as long as it is in good shape and you love it, can be used at home representing other elements like metal or earth;
- Try do reduce the use of plastic as much as possible, not only is bad for the global environment, but for health too, it’s associated to fire element;
- Create the habit of composting your household waste, from fruit peels to coffee grounds, this way your ecological footprint will decrease considerably and you can use it to fertilize your plants, this process includes all the 5 elements of energy;
- Try to save water as much as you can, buckets under the drips can reduce your consumption and plants prefer water with no chemicals, this way you will also value this essential element of life, water element.
