by @elioverbey

Alice had a difficult year last year filled with fear for her health, anger about not being able to see her family, and general negativity about her finances.

When the energy in your home is not aligned with your desires it can be overwhelming. If the energy in your home is negative or stagnant it will impact all areas of your life including your peace of mind. wealth, passion, health, and your good fortune.

The energy within you also influences your mindset, health, and good fortune. What do you do for yourself that uplifts you? Do you spend time in nature, move your body, eat healthy foods, or meditate?

Chinese New Year brings an opportunity for a new beginning, the time is ripe for change.

This year Chinese New Year begins on February 12th. In addition to choosing positive thoughts, you can prepare by implementing the Chinese New Year secrets below.

It is believed that what you do on New Year’s Day sets the tone for your entire year. Do you want happiness, prosperity, good health, and peace of mind? Then it is time to do something that makes you feel that way on February 12th. Spend time in nature, move your body, listen to music, engage in a creative project.  It is a time to celebrate, enjoy yourself, and hold a positive vision for the year ahead. Avoid activities that you do not want more of in the new year such as arguing, making clutter, and ignoring your desires

Here are the 10 Chinese New Year Secrets to Good Fortune

Do These Before New Year’s Day

Secret # 1 – Make way for something new by clearing clutter and cleaning your SPACE so fresh opportunities and Good Fortune can find you. If your space is messy and cluttered there is no room for your good fortune to land.

Check the clutter in your home, purse, wallet, computer, files, car, and office. Clean your refrigerator of expired foods, old meats or produce, and wipe the shelves and drawers.

Clean your windows and mirrors.

Secret # 2 – Make sure all the trash and recycling are emptied on New Year’s Eve not on New Year’s Day. The activities that you do on New Year’s Day set the tone for the coming year and you do not want to spend the entire year taking out the trash, right?

Secret # 3 – Wear something new that is red for good fortune. It could be a bracelet, ribbon, a shirt, or something hidden like underwear.

Secret # 4 – Pay off as many of your debts as possible and all your current bills in full. This sets the intention of being debt free in the New Year

Secret # 5 – Fill your pantry and refrigerator with healthy and delicious foods to affirm longevity and vibrant health.

Secret # 6 – Oranges and tangerines are symbols for abundant happiness. Display them in a bowl or tray on your dining table or in your kitchen. When you place them feel yourself being abundantly happy.

Secret # 7 – Bring flowers into your home. Flowers are believed to be symbolic of wealth and high positions in one’s career. Flowers elevate the energy flow in your space bringing good vibes to you.  Often you will see potted blooming chrysanthemum in the stores at Chinese New Year time. A fresh bouquet of your favorite flowers is great too.

Secret # 8 – Treat yourself to a new purse or wallet and fill it with cash.

Secret # 9 – Feed the birds, they symbolize the bringing of “good news” and they lift the happiness chi around the house or office. If you don’t have a bird feeder you can put birdseed on the ground in a place where you can see the birds eating.

Secret # 10 – On New Year’s Eve open the front door to let out all last year’s energy and all that goes with it. Ring bells to remove any negative energy as you usher it out the front door. Next, invite in the Good Fortune of the New Year to enter your home.

You can choose to do the secrets that you believe will have the most impact for you first. If you feel overwhelmed by everything on this list remember it is about progress not perfection.

Alice is starting today with secret #1 because she believes clearing clutter will open the pathway for all she wants to find her this year.

Your thoughts and actions impact your Good Fortune now and in the future. You have a chance to join Alice in preparing for the new year and your Good Fortune by implementing one or all of the secrets.

Wishing you a year of Good Fortune.

What I Learnt From Staying Focused During Difficult Times

Life is like riding a roller coaster. Imagine yourself strapped into that car chugging up the rickety rails to the top and in an instant you are plunging down so fast your knuckles are white from gripping the safety bar, you feel your heart pounding like thunder in your chest, the wind plasters your hair against your head, and your mouth is open wide as you let out a terrifying scream.

Life, just like a roller coaster it has its ups and downs. You may even experience a few twists and turns along the journey.

Nancy Dadami

Sometimes the downs are personal and sometimes they are environmental. Loss of a loved one, a cancer diagnosis, unhealthy air quality caused by fire storms, and draining or stagnant energy in your home.  

Whenever something disturbing happens staying focused can be a challenge.

Here are 10 tips to help you stay focused even during difficult times.

  1. Give Yourself a Break – Take a deep breath, hold, and slowly exhale. Do that 3 times and let your body relax. Feel your neck and shoulders let go, your belly relax, and your mind find calmness. I’m not saying to ignore how you feel. You’re allowed to have bad days and feel your feelings. It’s good to feel the emotions you feel and let them out though talking, crying, journaling, or creating intentional art. The secret is not to wallow in those feelings for days.
  • Set a “Worry” Time Limit – Set time limits to letting loose of your feelings and feeling all the things you need. Maybe you choose 10 minutes during your day where you won’t be interrupted and let your feelings out.  You can even set many time limits. For example, if you must get through a day of work or an emotional difficulty, set a time later for feeling all the feelings so that you can get through your current situation.  
  • Sleep Well – This can be a hard thing to do when you’re having a tough time in life, but you must try to make your sleep a priority in good and bad times. You can always catch up later when it’s vital that you are awake. A power nap might be the right action to help you catch up on sleep.
  • Eat Right – When a crisis is occurring your body processes are in high alert.  It’s not the time to start eating unhealthy food. It’s a time that you want to take great care of your body by providing it with the fuel it needs. Set a schedule and make sure you’re eating enough good nutrition and calories to give yourself fuel. It is a time to get more vegetables, fruits, water, and good quality protein.
  • Keep Exercising – It may be even more important now to find time for your walks than at any other time. Walking in nature or your neighborhood burns off stress and worry. Exercise even helps you sleep better, feel more positive, and is a great way to get through hard times
  • Be Mindful – It’s easy to get distracted when your emotions are being affected by what is happening in your life or the world. However, before you start a new activity, always take time to center yourself with a good deep breath so that you can be mindful of what is happening right this moment. The issue may still be there when you are centered and you will be calmer in dealing with it.
  • Keep an “I’m okay” Journal – When things are bad, it’s hard to feel like anything will ever be okay again. However, most of the time, you can find some things that are at least okay about your day, if not something to be outright grateful for now. An I’m Okay journal helps you focus on what is going well in your life. The more you focus on what is going well the better you will feel.
  • Clean Up Your Environment – Allowing your environment to get cluttered and dirty when the world is crumbling around you seems like a natural thing to do, but the truth is, it makes things worse. Clutter robs you of your physical and emotional energy, causing you to feel scattered, frustrated, and overwhelmed. Set a regular time that you keep your environment clean because that’s going to help you feel more in control, confident and successful.
  • Get Rid of Distractions – Turn off your phone, social media, and the radio or TV when you’re doing certain activities. If you need to focus, don’t do other things.  Research shows that doing multiple tasks is stressful to your brain. Even listening to music can cause you to miss out on essential points. Anything worth doing is worth doing 100 percent.
  1. Ask for Help – If you are having trouble controlling your thoughts and nothing you try is working after a few days, you may want to ask for help. Counselors, life coaches, and soul menotrs can help you through difficult times so that you can focus on the other things that are important to you.

A life well-lived is going to have difficult times. The rollercoaster of life is what makes it exciting, that is how learn. Going through challenges helps you grow. You feel new emotions, try new things, and come out better for the experience, even if it felt impossible while it was happening.

Everything passes eventually, and you can get through difficult times without losing focus on what is important to you. Hold onto that safety bar as your rollercoaster car is diving. You will make it.

Here Is A Peek Inside A “Flow” Reading Of A Floor Plan

by @elioverbey

Did you know that your current concerns, problems, and challenges are visible in your floor plan?

Come along with me as I show you the design details in a floor plan and how the energy flow gives me information about the owners of the house.

The design details like the location of stairs, bathrooms, fireplaces, bedrooms, all make a difference in the flow of energy through your space.

The energy is either flowing and nurturing you or it is slow, stagnant and blocking you from reaching your goals and living the life you desire.

Do you have stairs near the front door, a bathroom in the center of your house, a bedroom over the garage, or a dining table that is visible from the front door? Every design detail in your floor plan matters. They support or limit the flow of energy through your home and your life.

You can buy new furniture, freshen the paint and decorate your home but if the “flow” is off in your floor plan you are wasting your time and money.

A Flow Reading of Your Floor Plan Helps You:

  • Discover where the flow is slow, stagnant and blocked in your floor plan and in your life.
  • Learn how to direct the flow of energy through your floor plan and house to minimize the impact of draining design details.
  • Create a plan with action steps you can take to bring your home into flow alignment so you can thrive.
  • Design better flow and a happier more fulfilling life.

There is a remedy for everything!

Even the most difficult design details have a solution.

Find out how the structure, design details, and the flow of your floor plan impact your current and future life experiences.

The First Step To A Better World Begins With You

by @elioverbey

Do you know the benefits of being kind to yourself? Your overall well-being can be improved when you are kind to yourself or others. When was the last time you focused on treating yourself with kindness and self-compassion?

Personal Benefits of Kindness

The benefits of kindness are more than feeling good. Kindness affects the well-being of your body and your mind. Here are some of the benefits of being and showing kindness to yourself and others.

  • Kindness slows down the aging process. People who volunteer tend to have fewer aches and pains.
  • Kindness improves your relationships and connections with others. You are uplifted when you perform acts of kindness for yourself or others.
  • Kindness increases happiness. In a study by The Journal of Social Psychology, those who practiced an acto fo kindness each day had a higher level of happiness than those who did not.
  • Kindness boosts your self-love and self-respect. It makes you happier and in an elevated mood more often.
  • Kindness helps prevent illnesses caused by inflammation. Volunteering seems to lower the levels of inflammation in your body. Oxytocin is released, even from small acts of kindness to yourself or others.
  • Kindness is good for your heart. It makes you feel good to be kind and it affects the chemical balance of your heart, releasing oxytocin which reduces blood pressure. Another great reason to be kind to yourself and others.
  • Kindness helps reduce stress. Helping others lets you focus on another, letting your worries and problems go.

What To Do Next

Kindness helps you stay healthy, happy and feel good about yourself. By practicing self-compassion without expectations you are spreading happiness that has the power to ripple out into the world.

Start With A Loving-Kindness Meditation

You can practice this meditation before you start your day, as you are going to bed at night or anytime during the day that feels right. Remember to begin with yourself so you will be filled up, making it easier to give to others.

Let me know how your Loving Kindness practice is going.

Everything You Want Is In The Flow State

by @elioverbey

The flow state holds the key to everything you want. Peace of mind, prosperity, fulfilling relationships, a meaningful career, vibrant health & happiness can easily be yours when you dwell in the flow.

What is the Flow State?

The flow state happens when your personal energy vibration, desires, and surroundings are aligned.

Enter the state of flow when you are happy, confident, and creative, everything seems to go smoothly, you are grateful, you can laugh easily, and your thinking is clear.

There is no flow state when you are angry, depressed, worried, confused, and stressed. Or you also feel like everything is difficult, nothing is going your way no matter how hard you try, or you blame others for your circumstances.

Here Are 2 Crucial Concepts From the “Law of Flow”

There is inner flow and outer flow. It is not enough to get your outer surroundings aligned if your inner landscape is cluttered with harmful thoughts, a negative attitude, and limiting beliefs.

Inner Flow

Inner flow is that place where your body, mind, soul, and intuition connect and align.

You influence your inner flow by the food you eat, your exercise routine, your sleeping habits, your thoughts, words, and time for self-care.

The soul appears to be mysterious because it seems to be hidden from you. Yet, it is available for you when you learn to listen to its messages.

Your soul is designed to keep you healthy on all levels, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

It is an intuitive transmitter and is always giving you feedback, even when you are not listening.

Your soul is the loudest, most relentless part of your inner being. It makes you restless about why you are here.

Your desires to matter, mean something to someone and, make a difference are calls from your Soul.

Meditation and self-care routines support your inner flow.

Outer Flow

Outer flow is about energy and your surroundings or environment.

It is about visible energy in your space such as a desk and the invisible energy present like your emotions.

Have you been in a room with someone and you could feel their emotions of love or anger without them having to say anything?

Emotions are present even when no one speaks.  Feelings create an energy vibration in your space that can be felt whether it is uplifting or draining to your flow.

When you move or add items in your surroundings you change outer flow too. Outer flow depends on the alignment of the visible and invisible energies in your spaces, and that is where Feng Shui can be your secret weapon to get your outer flow aligned.

The Flow State

Alignment is what it is all about. Sync up your inner flow with your outer flow and enter the flow state.

You know when the flow is lacking in your life by the way you feel. If you feel fear, worry, hesitation, and warnings about a current situation you are not in the flow.

Intuition speaks to you through your gut feelings. You may recognize it in a toxic relationship, a stressful job, or exhaustion. Intuition gives you clues when something is not quite right.

In the flow messages also come to you from your intuition. Feelings of excitement, comfort, safety, and trust, especially when wondering if you should take on a new project, help a needy friend or stand up for yourself in a relationship. Intuition also gives you clues when something is right.

There are benefits to following the clues to that lead you into your flow state.

Benefits of the  Flow State

  • More freedom, flexibility, and fun
  • Peace of mind
  • More ease and grace
  • Confidence in making the right decisions
  • More of what you want
  • Live a life that matters, has meaning and is fulfilling physically, emotionally & spiritually

When you sync up your life and business with your inner flow and your outer flow you enter the sacred space of the “Flow State”, where everything you want resides.
