Episode 250: Feng Shui Room x Room: the Front Door

Often called the “mouth of qi”, the front door is one of the most important areas of your home when it comes to feng shui. It represents your face to the world and people’s first impressions of you. A strong front door can open your home and life up to opportunity and positive energy. For part two in our Room x Room series, we are taking a look at the many ways the front door can influence the balance and harmony of our homes.

We cover: 

  • The importance of the doorway being visible and not overgrown with shrubbery or blocked by trees

  • Why the front door should always be working properly and that it can open fully

  • The specific energies associated with the different colors that you might paint your door

  • The value in keeping a clear pathway to and from the front door

    and much more.

Episode 243: Autumn Equinox, Decluttering with the Metal Element

Photo by Kelly Sikkema on Unsplash

The Autumn Equinox is upon us and for this episode of the Holistic Spaces Podcast we are taking a look at the many different styles of decluttering based on the Five Elements. The process of clearing clutter can sometimes be very intense and overwhelming. What works best for one may prove challenging for another. Learning about your own style and how to work with it, rather than against it, is one of the best ways to approach decluttering in our opinion.

Discussed In This Episode:

  • How it may be best for those with the Wood Decluttering Style to keep the process short and sweet.

  • If you’re more of a Fire person, revisiting memories and the emotions of certain objects may be a crucial part of decluttering.

  • For those with the Earth Decluttering Style, it may be a best to focus on organizing their collections and displaying them with love.

  • Why those with the Metal Style should watch out for over-purging.

  • Ideas for how those with the Water Style can begin to approach their collections of books and art.
