Top 5 Feng Shui Tips for Your Office by Vicky White



Feng Shui is the ancient art of improving every aspect of
your life by enhancing your environment according to the
principles of harmony and energy flow.

Its purpose is to remove blockages to the free flow of
energy and allow prosperity and well-being to enter your
life.

These tips can help you build an environment of success in
your workplace.

1. PLACE YOUR COMPUTER AND DESK IN THE POWER POSITION

The ideal placement for the computer monitor is on the desk
in front of you in a position that still allows you to see
the door of your office. If you cannot see the door when
facing your computer, your nervous system will be on alert
for surprise visits. If you cannot move your computer, you
can restore good Feng Shui by arranging a mirror that gives
you a clear view of the door. A small convex mirror
designed for use on car side mirrors can be purchased and
stuck on the side of your computer. Cost, about $3.00

2. MAKE SURE EVERYTHING AT YOUR DESK ALLOWS YOU TO BE
COMFORTABLE

A good combination glare screen/radiation filter to prevent
headaches and eyestrain, a comfortable chair that doesn't
squeak, comfortable keyboard and arm position, a mouse that
fits your hand etc. Anything that causes you discomfort
will drain your energy.

3. CLEAR THE CLUTTER IN YOUR OFFICE

Clutter is anything unfinished, unused, unresolved,
tolerated or disorganized. When we clear our clutter we get
into our power and create a space for new things to come
into our lives. You will have more energy and creativity to
design your life to reflect your authentic self.

Clutter is like emotional constipation - it bogs us down.
Filing cabinets need to be regularly purged and desktops
kept clutter free.

If in doubt, ask yourself, Do I love it, do I use it, and
does it raise my energy?

4. KEEP YOUR COMPUTER CLUTTER FREE

How is your Inbox? Create Folders to file emails you want
to refer to. If you see hundreds of emails when you open
your Inbox, you will feel overwhelmed. Of course, it is
important to regularly go through all your folders to
delete emails no longer needed. Once a week check your
Deleted Items folder and empty it.

Is your Desktop full of shortcuts to programs from a past
life? Do you have programs on your computer you never use?
Computers are great clutter collectors, and like us, they
work better if we keep them decluttered.

5. ENHANCE YOUR PROSPERITY CORNER

As you enter the door of your office, the far left hand
corner is your Wealth and Prosperity corner. What do you
have there? Clutter in this area will definitely be
affecting your prosperity.

This would be a good place for a small tabletop fountain, a
valuable item or even an affirmation of what you want to
attract. Blues, purples and reds are the colors for this
area. Can you include one of these colors in something that
makes you feel prosperous?

Make these enhancements to your office and have your
environment support your prosperity, energy and creativity.

Using Feng Shui to Harness the Power of Your Intention by Vicky White



Master Lin Yun, founder of Black Hat Tibetan Feng Shui, has
stated that making Feng Shui enhancements without
intention, is only 10% effective. However, add intention
and you'll get a 120% improvement!

If you listen to successful people talk about what makes
them successful, one of the elements is being clear about
what they want. And it's not just a vague idea, like to be
happy, or to be wealthy. Their goals are SMART goals, they
are: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and
Timely. So, what's the outcome you are going for? How
will you know when you reach it?

Everything around you affects you. Whether it's a pile
of clutter, a relationship that is dragging you down, or a
broken doorbell - everything is part of what you are
creating, whether you are conscious of it or not.

Learning about Feng Shui will give you a heightened
awareness of how you interrelate with everything in your
environment. That's quite a responsibility. So, the
question becomes - do you want to go through your life
hoping things work out, or do you want to design a
fulfilling and passionate life for yourself? Do you want
to be the cause or the effect?

Applying Feng Shui with intention will set your life on an
altered course. You're making a commitment - it's
powerful. I've seen clients begin Coaching, or Feng Shui,
feeling stuck in an aspect of their lives, and within one
week had several options magically open up to them. They
unleashed a series of opportunities and opened up a pipeline
to possibility. It's also about focus. What you focus on
expands, and when you move from focusing on feeling stuck,
to a wider view of focusing on outcomes, the Universe steps
in to support you.

And why not go for some BHAGs? they are Big, Hairy,
Audacious Goals. Live your life as a daring adventure.
You have the opportunity to create whatever you choose for
Your life, so think big!

The clearer you are about what you're choosing to create,
the greater the chance of having what you want, and the
more effective the Feng Shui. Clearing clutter, or placing
enhancements with intention is extremely powerful. It's
the difference between making a 10% improvement or making a
120% improvement.

Maximizing the Power of Your Enhancements

Use these tools to create an environment of success that
will support powerful outcomes for yourself. Make your
self a priority and design the life of your dreams.

1. Get clear and very specific about your desired outcome,
and write this down.

2. Remove the clutter and clean the area.

3. Choose an enhancement - something that represents the
change you would like to create, and place it in the
appropriate area of your home or room.

find where different aspects of your life are represented

4. Visualize or imagine your outcome as if its already
happened - how does it feel?

5. Speak your desired outcome out loud, in the present
tense. Always add, 'this or something better, for the
Highest Good now occurs'. An example is: I now have 2 new
clients who are a perfect fit for me. This or something
better, for the Highest Good now occurs.

6. Start taking action towards your outcome.

Sometimes your Higher Power, sees a much bigger picture
than you do, so don't place any limitations on what you
might receive.

Feng Shui will move you towards the next step in designing
your life.
