Many people have been asked to work from home if they can during our Covid-19 lockdown. If you are working from home then you can make the best of your feng shui energy so the energy can flow freely into your home office, whether it be a temporary office sitting at your dining table or maybe you are lucky enough to have been able to convert one of your spare rooms into a permanent office space.
Housing sales have increased in the UK, and the rumor is that people are moving to larger homes to incorporate their home office and their new working from home lifestyle.
Are you working hard every day and putting in so much effort, yet you do not feel as though you are making any progress in your business? This could be due to your office environment working against you. If your environment is not supporting you (earth luck), you are working against the flow, and you may feel like you are walking against the wind.
HERE ARE SOME OFFICE TIPS WHICH YOU MAY FIND HELPFUL:
- Ensure your desk is positioned correctly while working. An ideal position is sitting facing one of your favorable directions according to your personal Kua number (you can find a Kua calculator on the home page of my website).
- Sitting with the window behind you means that you are not being supported. To remedy this, place a large plant behind you for support.
- Try not to position your desk directly in front of the office door; the chi (energy) will hit you which is not good for your health. If possible, move the desk to one side slightly out of the way. Also, be aware of poison arrows. These are desk corners, wall corners, and furniture, which if directed at you can cause health problems. Move your desk out of the poison arrow line if possible, if you cannot, then place a big plant or hang material in the front to protect you.
- This tip is one of the most important, please ensure there is nothing blocking the entrance to your office (this also applies to your home entrance too). A client of mine had an exercise bike directly in front of their office doorway, which they had to squeeze past to get in and out; this blocked the energy from entering. Once they moved it, the work started to flow in again. Another client had boxes of filing ready to be put away in their basement. The boxes had been there for months, she was squeezing past them every day to sit at her desk. Once this was pointed out and she moved the boxes, the chi was able to flow into their office again and business improved. This is so important but very easily missed.
- Do not sit with your back to the door, by doing so, you will miss opportunities and you may find people will talk about you behind your back. If this is the only position that you can place your desk then do not panic, you can remedy this by placing a mirror on your desk, or on the wall just to the side of you, ensure the mirror is positioned so you can see who is entering the room without turning around. Only do this if you cannot move your desk into a better position.
- Try to limit the amount of clutter in your office. If business slows down, have a big clear out and get things in order. This starts the chi moving again and your business will do the same.
Too much clutter = stuck energy.
A clear office = a clear focussed mind. - If you are longing to travel, place a globe in the northwest of the office or in the northwest section of your desk and keep twirling it. Another option is to place a Concha Shell in the northwest instead.
- Hang a vision board up in your office, you can use a pinboard, and place your photograph in the center. Using your 4 favorable directions place images and text on the board for everything you wish to manifest (e.g., It should be set out like this, North – bottom center & South – top center, East – left & West – right). Hang your vision board in your personal success direction if possible, or one of your 4 favorable directions. Hang it where you can see it every day.
- Keep your entrance swept, clean, clear of blockages, and in good repair to invite more career and business opportunities.
- If you feel drained and unwell after sitting at your desk or find it difficult to concentrate while you are in there, then you could be sitting in a negative vortex, this can easily be checked and cured using dowsing.
