feng shui tips: New York Feng Shui and Missed Opportunities by Long Island NY Feng Shui Consultant - 11/10/09 11:02 AM

New York City Feng Shui and Missed Opportunities by Feng Shui Long Island NY Consultant

Everything comes into our lives for a reason. Oftentimes, when we are not at our best energetically or otherwise, we won't take a second look at something that is coming our way. We're not up to it, we figure and without much thought, we'll just turn away from it, decline (with thanks) and think nothing more of it. We may be missing the boat here. Instead of saying no, think it through.
When opportunities come knocking, it is wise to be there to answer the … (12 comments)

The Feng Shui Bathroom: Feng Shui The Series Pt. 6 by Feng Shui New York Consultant
As a Feng Shui practitioner in New York, I frequently am asked by my clients about the Energy of Bathrooms as they relate to Feng Shui.

Feng Shui The Series: Back to the Basics of Feng Shui Pt. 1 by Feng Shui New York Consultant
The Foundations of Feng Shui.
What IS Feng Shui? Pronounced "Fung Schway" the words Feng Shui literally translate to Wind and Water. Feng Shui is the Ancient Art of Mindful Placement.

Feng Shui is estimated to be between 3,000 to 5,000 years old and there are no early writings on the subject as it was intended to be an oral tradition, only passed down from Mentor to Student.
Lao Tzu (Which means "Wise Old Sage") is said to have formed the philosophy of … (26 comments)

feng shui tips: CONFIDENCE: Are you lacking it or do you EXUDE it? - 08/11/09 01:05 PM

Confidence: Are you lacking it or do you exude it?
Coming back from a New York City meeting not long ago with a prominent business person and his assistant that I have been working on a Feng Shui project with, the subject of Confidence came up.
They were thinking of adding to their staff and had liked the qualifications of a person that they had interviewed but said that she seemed to lack confidence. She hadn't made much eye contact during the interview, hadn't asked many questions and didn't seem to be enthusiastic; she appeared to lack confidence and it cost … (16 comments)

feng shui tips: A New York Feng Shui Bathroom---What NOT to Do by Feng Shui Long Island & NY - 08/09/09 04:04 PM

A New York Feng Shui Bathroom....What NOT to Do by Feng Shui Long Island
As a Feng Shui Consultant in New York, I am asked many questions about Good-and Bad Feng Shui. The clients in this home in Suffolk County Long Island New York had previously been advised by a Feng Shui Consultant to demolish an existing bathroom and build another---right in the KITCHEN area of their home.
Needless to say, I was a bit shocked to hear this. And concerned. The Energy of a Kitchen in Feng Shui is meant to nourish. The Energy of a bathroom in Feng Shui … (15 comments)

feng shui tips: The Feng Shui Home---Feng Shui on Long Island New York---A Home in Roslyn - 07/20/09 01:53 PM

The Feng Shui Home-Feng Shui on Long Island New York-A Roslyn Home
As a New York Feng Shui Consultant, I am in different homes on Long Island, New York City, Queens, Brooklyn and beyond. I love working with my clients to address Feng Shui issues that might be found in their homes.
The front door should not be directly opposite a staircase. In many schools of thought in Feng Shui, when you enter one of these homes your energy will automatically "sweep" up. We sometimes forget Energy is supposed to flow through a space, it is not supposed to struggle to … (15 comments)

feng shui tips: Be Kind -- REWIND by Feng Shui Long Island Consultant - 06/28/09 01:38 PM

I was going through some old VHS tapes the other day hoping to be able to part with some. I have so many and although I still have the player for them I don't use them very often.
One was from an old video store; I'd apparently racked up so many late fees, I bought it and it had a sticker on it that said "Be KIND -- REWIND." It made me recall that often when I rented tapes, I'd have to rewind them as the person who had rented it before hadn't bothered.
It's sad to me they had to … (17 comments)

feng shui tips: Feng Shui in New York: It's About RELATIONSHIPS - 03/01/09 02:45 PM

Feng Shui in New York: Your Relationships and Blockages
As a New York City and Long Island Feng Shui Consultant, there is something I see quite often that is not always addressed. Of course we assess a client's living or working space for Energetic Blockages to any areas of their life: Money issues, Health problems and Careers to name a few.
What many couples DON'T realize is that there can be EMOTIONAL blockages as well. Often times in sitting down and discussing the issues they are facing, you can actually see it reflected in their homes. It's not always in the … (18 comments)

feng shui tips: Creating Our Own Road-Blocks - 01/02/09 04:16 PM

Creating Your Own Road Blocks
Whether it's a Feng Shui Process or anything else in life you want to create do you ever wonder if you're somehow standing in your own way?
We do everything we're supposed to do....we INFUSE our Energy into things we want to change, we make physical changes in our surroundings, we TRY very hard to keep positive thoughts and we sometimes find we are STILL NOT GETTING WHAT WE WANT.
Why IS that? It seems to work for other people.....
I do tell ALL my Feng Shui Clients in New York to not just make changes … (29 comments)

feng shui tips: A Manhattan Feng Shui Consultants Wishes: - 11/26/08 02:51 PM

I am a firm believer in Counting your Blessings. As difficult as things might be for some of you right now, look upward. And say a prayer or a gratitude of blessings for all the truly wonderful things you have in your life RIGHT NOW.
Someone always has things worse. When we count our blessings, they mulitply. It's not only the Law of Attraction and a Feng Shui belief, it also helps us maintain our focus on all the GOOD we have in our lives.
Tomorrow many of you will be truly Thankful. It's a day to give Gratitude. Wake up with … (30 comments)

A Feng Shui Haunting on Long Island New York
I've been reading many stories of Hauntings...it's Halloween, after all. As a New York Feng Shui Consultant, I have seen my share of homes which my clients claim are haunted---and I never doubt them. ALMOST never doubt them....
Please note: This is a True Story with a former client. I am not showing pictures of his home or sharing his name or even his town out of respect for privacy.
One day I received a call from "Sam." He sounded like a very nice gentleman who lived on Long Island and was … (21 comments)

What I LOVE about being a Feng Shui Consultant in New York

feng shui tips: What a New York Feng Shui Consultant MIGHT Recommend....by Feng Shui Long Island & New York - 09/02/08 03:49 PM

During a Feng Shui Consultation in New York my clients often want to purchase items that are considered auspicious for one reason or another in Feng Shui. The Chinese and many other cultures have symbols they consider important to acknowledge or are considered lucky and while no ones home needs to end up looking like a Chinese Restaurant, I thought I would share some of my favorite items. Some of these things I use personally during a Feng Shui Consultation and I also use them in my own home. Please see the note at the bottom :)

feng shui tips: Pre-Plan Your Day With Feng Shui by Feng Shui Long Island & New York City Consultant - 07/24/08 05:34 PM

Want a Perfect Day? In Feng Shui we Plan on It!
Reading one of Katerina's posts recently struck a nerve. She said in her lists of things you can do to help yourself is to stop watching the NEWS. We all want to be informed, we all want to know what is going on-but how many of us have become "News Junkies"? How Do You View What You See and Hear?
I was, years ago. It went from just the nightly news (certainly not the BEST way to go to sleep!) but to keeping CNN on ALL the time. I … (15 comments)

feng shui tips: A New York Feng Shui Consultant's Thoughts--Predecessor Energy Pt. 2 by Feng Shui Long Island & New York City - 06/25/08 01:19 PM

Parapsychology. What a fascinating subject it is. When I first became interested in it I was at my local college, having enrolled in some psychology courses. We had our breaks at the same time as the parapsychology class and I found THEIR discussions much more interesting then OURS. The next year I enrolled and took two years of it.
The Rhine Research Institute used to have a place right here in New York City and I found it to be amazing using the strict controls and standards to measure such things as Telepathy, ESP, Psychic Ability, Remote Viewing (which was then called … (21 comments)

feng shui tips: Feng Shui Tip: What's Supporting YOU these days?.....by Feng Shui Long Island, New York - 04/27/08 03:27 PM

I had a wonderful Feng Shui Consultation in New York recently with an interesting story. The client who had called had been fortunate enough, years ago to have had a Feng Shui Consultation with a Feng Shui Master who came from China. He practiced what is known as the "Form" School of Feng Shui, an art that I don't believe is taught here any longer.
It is one of the oldest schools of Feng Shui that we are aware of and he advised my client in his office setting to be "backed up in life." The Form school teaches you to have … (11 comments)

feng shui tips: Feng Shui School? Or the School of Hard Knocks? by Feng Shui Long Island - 11/03/07 01:43 AM

When I first starting practicing Feng Shui, there was one "Principle" that I was never taught. Feng Shui Consultations can be very draining. I have heard through the years from other consultants that they are able to leave a Consultation and forget it; they do not bring any of the emotions home with them and the experience does not at all drain them. Unfortunately, I am not that way.
Most of my clients call because they are having issues in their lives; they may feel stuck, have problems with income/money/careers or sometimes it is a more personal issue such as problems in … (32 comments)
