feng shui: Understanding The Anatomy of Doors with Feng Shui - 08/19/18 02:44 PM
Doors in Feng Shui hold significant meaning, literally and metaphorically. In short, on a practical note, they allow you to move from one room to the other. From a Feng Shui perspective, doors relate to the concept of communication. In particular, the front door is known as the, "mouth of chi." In regard to the western Feng Shui anatomy of your home, this is where all the good energy first enters and begins to nurture and animate the spirit of your home.

feng shui: Feng Shui Tip: Can Naming Your Home Boost Positive Energy? - 07/31/18 05:54 AM
This is a pretty interesting question to unravel because, in the science of Quantum Mechanics, EVERYTHING is made of energy, including; emotions, thoughts, and WORDS. 
 
Quickly referring to a branch of psychology called, Gestalt Psychology, studies suggested that words convey symbolic ideas beyond their meaning. 
 
Japanese researcher, Dr. Emoto said, "the human consciousness has an effect on the molecular structure of water." Which in short means, if you choose to think and speak positively or think and speak negatively, this could affect your physiological well-being.  
 
So, can naming your home boost positive energy? From a Feng Shui perspective, backed with various scientific research, the answer is, YES! When you choose … (14 comments)

feng shui: How to Integrate the Principals of Feng Shui with a Reiki Master Crystal Grid - 06/20/18 12:58 PM
The image you see above integrates Reiki and Feng Shui principles to create an Antahkarana Altar. 
Lets take a closer look at the Master Reiki symbol called, Antahkarana, created by Reiki Master William Lee Rand. There are two Antahkarana symbols; yin and yang, but for now we'll explore the Yin (female) symbol. In essence, the Yin symbol promotes healing in a gentle way for both male and female energies. What's being healed and manifested will depend on your intentions. 
Traditionally, to make an Antahkarana altar, the ingredients include the image of the Antahkarana and 7 crystals, each one corresponding to the seven chakras. The twist of Feng Shui comes from including objects … (3 comments)

feng shui: Exploring the Physics of Feng Shui Part 2 - Newton's Law of Motion - 06/10/18 02:51 PM
 
In a previous post, research from Cellular Biologist, Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D, provided insights into the world of Quantum Mechanics and Feng Shui.  Going back to the foundations of physics, lets approach the conversation of Feng Shui through the lens of Sir Isaac Newton's Law of Motion.
 
Three Laws of Motion and Feng Shui:
First Law: Energy will remain the same unless its changed by an external force. This meaning in the practice of Feng Shui, unless you CHOOSE to participate in the process of change, your experiences in life will most likely remain the same.  
Second Law: The rate of change is directly proportional to the amount … (4 comments)

feng shui: Where to Watch the Warriors vs Cavaliers? How About the Movie Theater? - 06/06/18 06:36 PM
Over the weekend, while in Livermore, CA, my family and I stopped in at the Vine Cinema and Ale House to see the movie, "Pope Francis - a Man of His Word," which by the way was amazing! After the movie let out, we came upon a good number of people dressed in Golden State Warriors gear. As we turned back around to look at the bulletin board, it became obvious, the theater transformed into a sporting arena. Pretty cool! And what was even cooler?! They allowed the public to enjoy the game for FREE! So, if you happen to be in Livermore, CA … (7 comments)

feng shui: Exploring New York City with Feng Shui Consultant Laura Cerrano - 04/14/18 11:22 AM
Last weekend I was in New York City to conduct a Feng Shui Consultation and Space Clearing Ceremony. My client was located in downtown, near the world trade center. So after, I decided to take myself on a little tour before heading back to Long Island. 
 
I walked over to the 9/11 Memorial and every time I see it, its still such a surreal thing to observe. Walking just a short distance, I came across The Oculus, which provides unique architectural design on its on or when paring it with the World Trade Center Building.

At a few sections you'll come across some heavy duty cardio rock scrambling. Other areas will level out and eventually you reach the top of the mountain, where you'll see the Perkins Tower. After ward you descend on the Appalachian Trail, … (6 comments)

feng shui: How To Position the Crib for Good Feng Shui in Your Baby's Room - 03/30/18 11:28 AM
 
A client from Northport, New York hired me to Feng Shui their home and in particular, asked me to assess the energy of their baby's bedroom. They observed, since she’s been sleeping inside her crib, each night she cries.  
 
After reviewing the baby's furniture arrangement from a Feng Shui perspective, it became very obvious why their daughter was reacting negatively to the layout of the room.
 
1. Avoid placing the baby's crib along a bathroom wall. In Western Feng Shui this is called, “sha” energy, or “drain” energy. Bathroom pipes act like geopathic stress points inside the home. Symptoms felt, could be … (16 comments)

feng shui: One Last Dance - 03/22/18 06:42 AM
I'm not sure if this is the last dance, yet the way the snow was gently falling last night, felt like an invitation to a dance. I was so taken back by its beauty, I wrote a mini poem. 
 
The calm of winter spirit, transforms into new beginnings. 
One last dance, he asks for.
I say, yes! As my heart opens for his embrace.

feng shui: Embrace The Surroundings Of Outside To Enhance The Energy Within - 03/20/18 11:53 AM
The juxtaposition of two different environments can provide unique visuals and interestingly, harmonize the energetic frequencies of a space when composed in a balanced manner. This was the case for clients in New York City. Looking outside their window, they have an amazing view of beautiful architecture. On their window sill, they began to include a minimalist display of plants. This subtle combination seems to work really well and almost, looks like a painting. Utilizing the outside environment and highlighting that from the interior of your home, is another fun and creative way in how you could boost positive energy.
