Here Is A Feng Shui Method To Adjust The Chi Of Your Health

by @elioverbey

One of my Personal Growth Coaching clients felt general discomfort in her body and confusion in her mind. She was worried this uneasiness would be a new way of life and she did not want any part of that.  She practiced this Feng Shui method consistently to adjust her personal Chi and noticed her energy level improving, her thoughts became more positive, and increased her feelings of peace and well-being.

Do you know a Feng Shui method to move stuck chi/energy in your body to improve your health and well-being?

Would you practice a method for adjusting your chi for a minimum of 27 days?

This method improves the flow of energy through your body, mind, and spirit.

“When you improve Chi flow your life changes”.

~Nancy Dadami

How does this Chi adjusting method work?

If the river has a fallen tree across it the blockage slows down the flow or stops it completely. The slow flow results in unhealthy water.

Imagine Chi flowing in your body as water flows in a river. The banks of the river guide the flow of water on straight paths, around bends, and over rocks. Now add some big boulders to the water and the river flows around them. The flow may pick up speed and go faster around those boulders or slow down so much that a stagnant area is formed. Slow-moving or stagnant waters have minimal flow resulting in unhealthy water.

river flowing

When the flow has restricted the health of the river in impacted.

Imagine Chi flows through your body as the water flows in a river. When the flow of Chi is restricted in your body, mind, or spirit your health is influenced.

What are your banks made of (skin, thoughts, or feelings, etc.)?

What are your boulders (clutter, negative thoughts, or lack of self-care, etc.)?  

What is the quality of Chi flowing within you?

You can adjust the Chi of health for yourself with consistent practice every day.

Here is the Feng Shui method my client practiced daily to adjust the Chi of health:

Red Ball Purification Method

This method is used for adjusting the Chi of a difficult dream, Chi of poor health, and the Chi of general discomfort.

By practicing this method, a person's Chi will improve, and an improved state of mind will be advanced.

It is so simple that a young child may learn this method and use it for themself.

Method

  1. First thing in the morning, or whenever the need is present, visualize a red ball approaching you from a distance.
  2. The red ball comes closer and enters your body through third eye (the space on your forehead between your eyebrows).
  3. The red ball (like the image of the sun seen with eyes closed) expands within you completely filling your body with red light.
  4. The red light absorbs all negative Chi and transforms your body so that it glows with red light. See your body glowing with this red light.
  5. Visualize your body is regenerated and is newly born. Allow time to visualize and feel this step.
  6. The red light rises from your body to your third eye and issues out of your third eye completely removing all negative Chi.
  7. Visualize this as if it has already happened, feel it in your body, and believe it is so.
  8. Take a moment of silence to notice your body, mind, and spirit. Any changes?
  9. Give thanks.

Perform this method when you feel you need to remove negative Chi, rejuvenate yourself, and adjust the flow of Chi for yourself and your health.

Where I am from…

by @elioverbey

Red Rose

I am from the land of curiosity, creek walking, rope swings, & hiking to the old oak tree.

I am from red roses and butterflies

And playing jacks and laughing until I cry.

I am from walks in the forest, and the sounds of redwood mulch crackling under my feet.

I am from soaking in hot tubs engaging in deep conversation

I am from bold intentions,

Freshly roasted walnuts, bear claws, and bergamot tea

I am from knowing I matter, and I am enough the way I am

I am from sacred spaces within the womb of mother earth and the connection of cosmic stars.

From religious roots that gave wings to searching for the meaning of life, metaphysics, healing, and quantum physics

I am from creating sacred space within me and around me, visible and invisible energy pulsating everywhere.

From energy alignment, magic, and home as a mirror of Self.

I am from the inquiry. I ask the ocean “how am I like you?” I ask the rose “What messages do you have for me?” I witness the stare of the Raven and know that everything is connected.

I am from gathering pieces and messages from life to heal and expand

Turning deep grief into compost to creating meaning in my life.

From a loving, creative, & compassionate mother who listened and encouraged me to grow into ME. In her last days, she told me “Never give up your dream”.

She showed me the power of creativity. There was always a creative project in the works from creating garments, oil painting, making porcelain dolls, or baking wedding cakes for others.

I am from designing & sewing fabric collage garments, creating recipes for gluten-free scones, tending to my roses, and growing tomatoes & basil to create my grandmother’s spaghetti sauce.

I am from creating wisdom spaces for teachers and my students to empower them to deliver & receive knowledge and life lessons in school.

I am from pure joy when I teach. That joy of teaching is with me always. From my early days of gathering neighbor kids during summer to my backyard school to do math or writing to teaching high school students with inquiry to discover “who am I?” and “why am I here?”

From practicing compassion, setting boundaries, and witnessing people, especially teenagers we all grew in empathy and humility.

I am from spousal abuse and betrayal to choosing to rise above what happened to me, shedding the garments of victimhood, to step into who I want to be now.

I am from discovering that my son began teaching me from the time he was born that I am not always in charge, being perfect does not exist, and I am never too old to learn. Oh, and you can’t believe what everyone tells you about being a parent.

From pride as I watch the man he has become, his compassion, empathy, love, & humility. His choice to live near his daughter so she would grow up knowing her father, something he did not have. 

I am from following the rules on the job until the rules are not right for the students, teachers, and me. Then I speak up and decide what I am willing to be fired for.

I am from sharing the vision, mission and setting the tone for my own alternative school. A place where each person is met exactly where they are, respect is expected, the possibility of graduation is real, and showing up for yourself and doing your work is a lifelong journey.

I am from marveling at the way bees live, tending my own beehive, and harvesting honey in a full bee suit.

From the ocean breezes kissing my face, awe as I bob up and down in the salty water and holding hands with my husband as we catch the next wave.

I am from a circle of love, laughter, and adventure with my husband. From talks about feelings, intuitive messages, I did not see it coming jokes, cooking together, and enjoying each other’s company.

I am from painting as an expression of my Soul, a portal to healing, and a way to higher levels of consciousness. I meet myself in every creative endeavor. I am the artist of my life.

I am from the Red Thread that connects me to all people I am destined to meet. Although the thread may tangle or stretch it will never break. I call them and they call me and we meet, each taking responsibility for our unique piece of the red thread, agreeing to witness each other on this journey.

We are not alone.

How To Supercharge Intentions

by @elioverbey

Do you begin your day with thoughts about yesterday’s challenges?

Meet Katherine whose feelings of anxiety and overwhelm from saying yes to a family member by putting her needs last. It is maddening when she skips her self-care over and over again by agreeing to the requests of others without stating what she wants.

In essence, she voluntarily gives up her self-care in silence without negotiation or compromise. Katherine never knew that setting intentions could help her set boundaries.

Then there is Marcy, a woman on a mission to organize and declutter her home. She is busy tackling the “stuff” in her bedroom, the stack of books overflowing from her nightstand onto the floor, the treadmill in the corner gathering dust, the boxes of sweaters and old taxes stored under her bed, and the old clothes in her closet she has not worn for a couple of years.

The problem, Marcy gets scattered, loses focus, and can’t quite get the job done. She doesn’t know about the power of setting intentions. She keeps trying harder every day and ends up feeling guilty when she can’t make progress.

Why Setting Intentions Is Important

· Intentions are the foundation, the first step in building the future that you desire. Think of intentions as the building blocks to create your ideal life. You can have happiness, peace of mind, love, a rewarding career, a life with purpose, and much more.

· Intentions help you focus on what is important to you. You get clarity on what you want when you are fine-tuning your intentions.

· Intentions have no limits. You are free to intend the life and experiences you truly crave.

· Intentions improve your confidence and self-awareness. Manifesting what you want gives you a boost even if manifesting takes a little longer than you want.

· Intentions keep you grounded, moving forward, and taking action. You can see evidence that what you intend is coming into form.

You have been given your desires to create them into reality. There is a famous quote from Rumi that says it so well.

“What you seek is also seeking You” ~ Rumi

You can create more of what you are seeking by setting intentions.

How To Supercharge Your Intentions Into Reality

· Know what you want with clarity and detail

· Use powerful words when creating your intentions

· Eliminate the words that dilute your intentions

· Incorporate Creative Expression with your intention setting.

· Make creating intentions a daily practice

Results

Katherine is setting boundaries with her family and carving out time to take care of herself. She is discovering a new way to begin her day and she feels more peace and purpose.

Marcy is learning about setting the energy rather than trying harder. It is easier for her to make decisions about her “stuff”. The ease in decision-making is spilling over into other areas of her life too.

I have created an online course to help you discover the exact step-by-step system to manifest your intentions without spending years trying to crack the code.

There a whole section on how to supercharge the words you use to create your intentions. See the course here

Where Is The Best Place To Keep Ashes After Cremation?

by @elioverbey

This is a question I get asked often, “Where is the best place in my home to keep ashes of a deceased pet or person?” Most people are surprised by my answer.

Your home tells a story about you. As a Feng Shui Detective, I read the energy of you, your floor plan, and your space for clues to the problems you are experiencing.

Here is a recent case.

The phone rang it was Kim, asking about possible reasons her house was not selling. There was beauty in every room, the floorplan flowed nicely between rooms, It had been professionally staged, and it had a great area for a home office.

Dozens of people had toured Kim’s house and yet there were no offers. Kim did not want to lower the price again. Real estate was hot in the area and most houses had multiple offers. Why not Kim’s.

I knew it had something to do with the energy flow in her home.

During the consultation, I discovered Kim’s home had areas of yin (slow-moving) energy. Her personal energy was slow-moving too due to her stress and frustration from lookers but no offers on her home.  

The detective in me was looking for clues, energy clues to solve this problem.  Energy is constantly moving throughout you and your space. The energy keeps moving and must flow smoothly to support your happiness and well-being.

When energy flow slows down or gets stuck you can experience loss of vitality or money, communication problems, illness, or a sense of being blocked from moving forward.

There was too much slow-moving (yin) energy in Kim’s home. I also noticed that her personal energy (chi) was low.

She was selling the home where she raised her children, built a life with her husband, and nursed him through his final days.

Although she wanted to start a new part of her life she was also trying to let go and process the time spent in her home with her family.

It had been ten years since her husband’s passing and Kim kept his ashes in a special place in her home.

Although she wanted to start a new part of her life she was also trying to let go and process the time spent in her home with her family.

Ashes contain no life force energy because the person or pet is not present anymore. Ashes are extremely yin which translates into minimal or no energy movement in the area where they are stored.

Here are some situations I have witnessed with ashes being stored inside the home.

Ashes stored in the wealth area may be experienced as a loss of your resources,  few income opportunities, or a fear of not having enough.

When ashes are stored in the health area people have health issues such as depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, or cancer.

Ashes stored in the relationship area of your home may be experienced as an increase in arguing with your partner, trouble communicating with family, and a decrease in desire to socialize.

When you look at the Feng Shui Bagua template you see the nine areas of life and one or more may be impacted by ashes being kept there. The 9 areas are:

  • Family
  • Wealth
  • Reputation
  • Relationships
  • Children
  • Helpful People
  • Career, Life Path
  • Health
  • Self Empowerment/ Knowledge

Back to Kim’s problem of selling her house. She had her husband’s ashes stored in the foyer of her home which was in the career and life path area. Kim was selling her home so she could retire and start a new phase of her life.

The placement of her husband’s ashes was draining the energy of her career and life path area, slowing down her retirement and transition to a new life.

What About My Pet’s Ashes

Cindy had her dog’s ashes next to his picture on her dresser. She had a dog biscuit and his favorite collar by his picture. She looked at him every day and thought about how much she missed him.

The dresser was located in the wealth sector of her bedroom. Yes,  pet ashes also slow down the flow of energy in the sector they occupy. This is what she was experiencing. She was an entrepreneur making a good living. Cindy was able to pay for her grandson’s music lessons every month. She also treated herself to a massage twice a month. Cindy was also able to save over a thousand dollars a month.

A year after she put her dog’s ashes on her dresser everything began to change. Her income started slowing down, she was not able to save money anymore,  Now, she was dipping into her savings every month and watching it dwindle. She was dreading telling her grandson that could not pay for his music lessons anymore. The massages were gone first and now was feeling fearful, depressed, and desperate.

The placement of her dog’s ashes in the wealth sector was stopping the flow of energy to her wealth. The only movement was draining her resources, leaving her in despair.

Where Should Ashes Be?

The best place to keep ashes is in the cemetery. A cemetery is made to hold slow-moving yin energy, your home is not.

When ashes are kept at the cemetery it creates a special place where you and others can visit and pay respects.

What if you can’t bare the thought of moving your loved one to the cemetery?

You may not be ready take your urn and run to the cemetery and leave your loved one’s ashes there.

You must be ready to move the ashes to the cemetery.  There are two points to consider:  

  1. The draining energy of the ashes in your home and areas of your life.
  2.  How the move will impact your feelings of grief, sorrow, or guilt.

Check-in with yourself to decide if you are ready, if you move the ashes before you are emotionally willing you may create anxiety or depression for yourself.

You can move the ashes in stages. First move the ashes out of the house, into the garage, a storage shed, or into a place in the yard. Get used to that placement. When you are prepared, move the ashes to the cemetery.

Kim moved her husband’s ashes to the garage and noticed a change in how the energy of the house felt. Not too long after that, she sold her house.

Cindy took some time to move her dog’s ashes to a place in the backyard and noticed a positive shift in her money flow. Her business is booming again and you guessed it she is able to pay for her grandson’s music lessons again.

A Note About Jewelry and Ashes

There are many companies that make necklaces, bracelets, and pendants to carry the ashes of your loved ones. You know now that ashes slow or stop the flow of energy in the area where they are placed.  Would you want to slow down the flow of energy in your body near your heart, throat, chest, or arms? My advice do not wear ashes on your body for any reason.

I get asked this question about the best place to keep ashes often. The answer is always in the cemetery. The reactions to that answer are as unique as each person. Some people are ready to move the ashes and others cry and say “I can’t do that”. It is an emotional decision and each person has their own comfort level and timeline to make the change. That is why I explain how energy works so each person can make the best-informed decision for themselves.

The best place to keep ashes is in the cemetery for your greatest long-term happiness and well-being.
