- Reduced Stress The Feng Shui Way
- by Tracy O'Brien

For more than 3 millenia, Chinese
people have used the ancient
wisdom of Feng Shui to bring greater prosperity to themselves
and to their environment. In the modern era, we are constantly
being bombarded by stress.
Whether you're blowing your horn
in a traffic jam, trying to
wade through the spam emails clogging your inbox, taking
unsolicited calls from salespeople on your home phone and that's
not even counting the everyday demands put upon you by your work,
family, household chores and if you have a second to spare -
then try to cram in some "leisure time".
Is it any wonder your nerves
are feeling jangled and frayed!
We are all guilty of trying to
do too much throughout the day,
constantly piling on the pressure with unfulfilled personal
expectations just adding to stress of just getting through the
day. |

There is some good news...
You can restore your energy,
recharge yourself and release tension by utilizing Feng Shui
to create a home that is a sanctuary.
The principles of Feng Shui can
help you create an environment to attract and direct positive
energy. You may not be aware of how many different ways your
physical space is affecting your well-being. Feng Shui provides
help to identify the issues in your environment. If learning
about Feng Shui sounds like one more project in an already busy
life, consider this is one project which will lighten your load,
provide relief and enhance your energy, rather than drain your
internal resources or tire you out.
Making the pursuit of Feng Shui
knowledge a worthwhile use of your time.
If your energy and your efforts
are hindered, if your environment is increasing to your sense
of restriction because the Feng Shui is out of balance, your
stress only gets worse. Too much stress on the body has been
demonstrated time and again as negative for your well being.
The overproduction of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline
put extra strain on all the systems in your body. These hormones
contribute to chronic conditions, like heart disease for example
which plague society.
Excess stress wears down the
immune system and leads to increased susceptibility colds and
other illnesses.
One of the keys to restoring
energy and relieving stress is getting enough rest. Using Feng
Shui to arrange your bedroom will help you get the fitfull sleep
you need. Feng Shui will guide you in selecting the right room
to sleep in, the right placement of your bed and the elimination
of unwanted items - like mirrors in the bedroom.
All of which will contribute
to the quality of your rest and your waking energy.
Anxiety and stress trap and deplete
energy. Correct use of Feng Shui optimizes energy. An environment
which employs proper Feng
Shui principles contributes to harmony, balance and well-being.
The Chinese believe Feng Shui helps create the conditions whereby
you can excel in your life and your relationships.
Feng Shui restores your energy
because the objective of Feng Shui is to allow you to reach balance
with your surroundings. You will learn how to place items and
arrange space so as to assist the flow of positive Chi energy.
You will learn to leave negative energy at the door and fill
your living space with good energy. With Feng Shui you can give
yourself the positive pleasure of a harmonious, planned home
environment designed to increase your well-being. |
