Boosting your business with Feng Shui.

Depending on if you’re working from home or in an office, there are some important details that can help you boost your business.

Watch closely how the energy flows in that space, is it too fast with rush of air or too slow with obstacles on the way?

Also, orientation and location are both relevant information about your main furniture like your desk or the cash register.

For achieving your goals, orientation is more determinant because it works with the eyesight direction.

For these matters, checking one of your best directions could be great for best results, like for example a Metal element person could be facing West or Northwest.

For an even better harmonization, use materials and decor details that work well with your essence, this way you are making this space the perfect environment for you and your professional goals.

Rustic country homes.

Every home has a certain style or trend, because they are in the countryside, in the city or on the beach, they also convey a lot of the vibe of their place.

Country houses tend to transmit an earthy energy, closely linked to these types of colors (brown, yellow, beige) and materials (wicker, stones, baskets).

In general, and for the practice of Feng Shui, adding other elements such as metal and wood make these environments more balanced, since water and fire are naturally present in our homes, whether in fireplaces or taps, these can be less visible in the decor.

This predominant element of country houses is capable of bringing us wonderful sensations such as comfort, calm, rootedness.

All its colors, fabrics and materials are inspiring, inviting us to live slower and more consciously, back to our earth roots.

Water Element



The representations and characteristics of the Water element can bring a wonderful feeling of freshness and tranquility to any space, whether indoors or outdoors.

For Feng Shui practice, this element is also used to bring wealth, prosperity and the flow of beneficial energy, but just like the Fire Element, it can escape our control and potentially create unwanted situations and misfortunes.

A Water element is capable of bringing prosperity, yes, but when properly enhanced and in adequate amounts, something that should not be left to chance when we have various Feng Shui methods at our disposal to prevent this.

Therefore, depending on the size and location, wonderful representations of water such as swimming pools, waterfalls, fountains, aquariums, views of the sea, lakes and rivers can definitely make a difference in any environment and make it certainly more welcoming and unique.

Blue and black are the colors that represent this element, as well as glass and undulating shapes but always try to incorporate all the other elements ensuring a more balanced flow of energy.

Why should we also worry about having a healthier environment at home?

Many allergies and health problems can come from within our spaces and recent studies have concluded that humans are more allergic today in an industrialized world than they were a few decades ago.

Exposure to chemically altered compounds, air pollution, food additives or chemicals that are in our furniture, walls, clothes, linens and perfumes put such pressure on our body system that we can react with allergies.

It is clear that the way we design and live within our spaces also has a huge impact on our health, and the practice of Feng Shui invites beneficial energy into our lives, so here are just a few things to consider for having a healthier environment:

▫️opening windows regularly and letting in fresh air;
▫️ use non-chemical products as much as possible to clean the house;
▫️ only use natural air fresheners, incense and candles, without any chemicals;
▫️ whatever fabric is in contact with your skin, such as household clothes or to wear, they should be natural and organic just like our body;
▫️ if you are planning renovations, prefer natural materials as much as possible, for furniture, to paint the walls, etc;
▫️Finally, pay attention to moisture, mold, mites and dust, these harmful problems can cause allergies and respiratory complications, so make sure they get fixed as soon as possible.

Do the houses which are enjoyed attract good Feng Shui?

Do houses that are enjoyed attract good Feng Shui?

Naturally, we feel well in environments that invite us to be and enjoy the present moment, like good hosts within our own space.

Sometimes, museum environments, all very tidy and orderly, where we are afraid to move or even spoil something, can bring a feeling of discomfort that would be the exact opposite of how we should feel at home.

Closed and unused rooms, which are only lived for special events and exhibitions, are full of stagnant energy, which does not favor a good flow of Chi (energy) and, consequently, a more welcoming and healthy environment.

We could say that the ultimate goal of Feng Shui practice is to bring well-being, so trying to combine comfort and freedom in any environment is one of the most fundamental teachings that we can apply to achieve a better energy flow, which leads to a better Feng Shui.
