I used to admire certain people\u2019s homes that gave me an immediate sense of calm and comfort when I walked into them. And, I wondered how they were able to put off such good energy or give such a good feeling. Was it just the people\u2019s unique energies or their personal style? Whatever it was, I wished I could bottle it up and take it home with me.<\/p>\n

Then I discovered things like feng shui that change the energy and feeling of a home, and I thought \u201cthat\u2019s it, I need to learn about feng shui home design\u201d. I had already by that point been learning about how everything is energy and energy can be changed, and I knew I wanted to bring in more positive energy. So, this was perfect!<\/p>\n

And, if you hang around I\u2019m going to share the things I learned with you so you can make your<\/em> home feel like those homes that relaxed me so much before. Calm and peaceful, cozy and comfortable, where even the air feels different for some reason. Spa like or sanctuary vibes and very zen and healing.<\/p>\n

So, let\u2019s get started with these feng shui home tips!<\/p>\n

But first, I want to tell you that as I was working on my outer space I was also working on my inner space, or my inner self. I found that they kind of go together, because you don\u2019t want to have cleared out all the clutter in your mind and still have it around you in your home affecting you, and the other way around. If you\u2019re working on both too, my Inner Voice Workbook<\/mark><\/a> is full of healing prompts and is downloadable so available right away!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

First, What Feng Shui Home Design Is and Isn\u2019t<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At its heart, Feng Shui home design isn\u2019t<\/em> about expensive decor or strict rules. So relax. You don\u2019t have to go out and buy a bunch of extravagant stuff just to get that wonderful feeling that Feng Shui gives. In fact, I personally found that it\u2019s more about the little things and that less stuff<\/em> is more calming and peaceful than having a lot of stuff.<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s less about buying or using fancy things in your home and more about interior design that\u2019s arranged in a way that allows energy, or Chi as it\u2019s called, to flow like water rather than getting stuck in corners. Flow like water \u2013 I love the sound of that. And, that describes the feeling of those homes that used to relax me.<\/p>\n

I actually used to always have a fish tank of some kind when I was younger (thinking about doing it again!). I remember one time, I was like in my early twenties, and my parents came in town to visit and stayed the night. My dad (drunk at the time, which I don\u2019t recommend but it\u2019s still a great story lol) was laying on my pull out couch bed, totally relaxed, saying something like \u201cawe, that sound is so relaxing\u201d.<\/p>\n

It was the sound of the water in the fish tank. Something I never gave that much attention to, but it made me realize that that\u2019s probably why I loved having a fish tank so much \u2013 they are<\/em> very relaxing! And, I think water really is. It\u2019s cleansing and calming. I know that\u2019s getting off the subject a bit, but you know it does show that sometimes it\u2019s the little things that can make a home feel sanctuary like or relaxing to be in.<\/p>\n

But, back to the topic, haha.<\/p>\n

Feng Shui is actually an ancient practice, and I like that. I think we don\u2019t give near enough thought or credit to our ancestors and what they knew in their wisdom back then, what was passed down to them. Sometimes it\u2019s easier for us to think with our heads or analytic minds instead of our hearts, souls, and what feels<\/em> right.<\/p>\n

Now, for the feng shui tips you came for!<\/p>\n
