This past week has been filled with eating, dancing, snoozing, cooking, and cozying up by the fireplace with the furriest cat. Sounds dreamy, right? I even found myself marveling at the incredible selection of wine and rosé in the local supermarket. Life is definitely sweet in Europe!
But now, let’s talk about something many of us consider as we step into the new year – Dry January – and how to connect it to Feng Shui!
Feng Shui is all about balance – Yin and Yang. And if you’re anything like me, the holiday indulgence has been a bit much. Dry January is typically about cutting back on alcohol, but why not expand the concept to your home and energy?
Here are 3 Tips to pair your Dry January goals with some Feng Shui magic:
1. Detox your kitchen
A clean and organized kitchen promotes health and vitality. It’s also linked to abundance, so clear out the clutter! Let go of expired spices, half-empty bottles of mixers, and gadgets you haven’t touched in years.
2. Release “stale energy” with a declutter sprint
Just like alcohol can weigh down your energy, so can clutter. This week, focus on spaces that feel heavy, and starting with your pantry or closets will create flow in your life again. While releasing, recite the mantra, “As I release what no longer serves me, I make space for what uplifts me.”
3. Set your intentions
Dry January isn’t just about not drinking – it’s about being intentional. Feng Shui is the same! Align your actions with your goals and let your space reflect what you’re calling in by writing down your goals and keep them somewhere visible, like your desk or vision board.
Remember! Your home is a mirror of your inner world. As you clear and reset your space, you’re doing the same for your mind and body.
Here’s to a lighter, brighter, and more balanced start to the year!
