When you Feng Shui your kitchen you’ll be inspired to cook healthy foods and you will feel less stress when cooking!  So I’m so excited to learn more! Amy Stephens is with us again to tell us how.  

For thousands of years the Chinese have used Feng Shui principals to bring more peace and prosperity into their lives.  You might think it’s just superstition or hogwash and I’m here to tell you that it’s really just the study of how to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment.  And if even if you are a scientist or a physicist you understand that life is energy we are all made up of energy.  So if we can learn to harness that energy we can feel better, we can think more clearly, we can feel more at peace, be more patient, be inspired, and ultimately create a more comfortable life on our own terms.  Fundamentally, Feng Shui teaches us how we can take control of our lives.  It offers guidance, so money issues, family issues, career problems anything that is going wrong in our lives, we can apply Feng Shui principals to improve them.  It allows us to create balance and bring more flow into our life so we aren’t working so hard.  You know how when you feel like you swimming upstream and nothing seems to be going your way, or just there’s road block after road block, vs sometimes when you are in the flow, you have endless energy and exactly what you need just seems to appear at the right time?  This it what I’m talking about when I say flow.   Pretty amazing right?  So, I’ve got Amy Stephens on the show again, she’s been practicing and helping others use Feng Shui in their homes for over 20 years and she’s going to dive a little deeper today and explain the Bagua map and how you can use it to make adjustments to the energy in your home.  So it’s going to be an episode you won’t want to miss!  Let’s grow!

Have you ever walked into a home or restaurant and had a uncomfortable feeling that you didn’t know what was wrong about it, but it just didn’t quite feel right, so you thought let’s leave?    Have you ever walked into a home and felt immediately comfortable like it was drawing you inside and you just got that feeling?  A lot of home buyers are searching for that feeling you know.  They can’t place what it is, but they will know right away when they walk in.    Well, what you were feeling is the energy of that space.  And what if I told you it’s something you can control.  Cool right?  Well, that’s what we’re talking about on today’s episode.  I’m super excited to have a special guest here Amy Stephens.  She’s an interior designer, and Feng Shui specialist for the past 20 years and she’s also a yoga instructor and teaches others all about energy, how to harness it and use it to our advantage.  So she’s going to walk us through the house and give us some quick tips on how you can transform the energy of your spaces so that they are inviting, welcoming and more comfortable for you and your family to live in.  It’s going to be a great episode!  So, let’s grow!

Everyone is creative - even if you don’t think you are, you are unique individual and you have the ability to create.  Creativity isn’t limited to art, dance or music.  Creativity is simply the use of ideas in new and original ways.   And if you start flexing your creativity muscles you’ll find that your life begin to have more meaning, purpose and joy.    How can you home support creativity for you and your family?  Well in today’s episode we’ll dive into that!   Shownotes can be found here.

There's ONE thing that can help you reach your personal and family goals in 2020!  In this episode we are going to find out what that ONE thing is and also learn how our home environment can support that ONE thing.   Season 2 is all about Personal Growth.  I believe there are 15 areas of our lives that contribute to overall wellness, and I group those areas into 3 different categories.  Personal Growth, Relationships & Health.   Because let’s face it, if you are struggling in an area of personal growth or relationships, no amount of kale or green juice is going to fix that!  So it’s important to understand what these different areas of our lives are and how becoming conscious of our actions and behaviors and habits will help lead to making better decisions!   Because once you are aware, that’s when you can start creating change and attracting what you want in the behavior of others, in yourself and in the life you want to create. So Season 2 will be all about personal growth and how the home can support that area of our lives.  So I’m super excited today’s episode, and can’t wait to get started,  so let’s grow! Shownotes can be found  here.
