  • Our thoughts on “good” or “bad” feng shui

  • Why you might be attracted to homes or space with challenging feng shui

  • Our opinions on plants in the bedroom

In this episode, we’re taking a moment to honor our feng shui lineage. We believe that it’s incredibly important to  honor our lineages, both our own personal cultural lineages and those of the practices we study and are drawn to. We’ve mentioned our teachers before, but inspired by the uprising against racial injustice that we’re witnessing right now, we are looking more deeply at how we are showing up in the world. While we always share our lineage with our Mindful Design students and everyone who attends our info sessions, we recognize that we can do more to honor our lineage publicly.
