I’ve been giving you a lot of theory lately. When I call myself an Energy whisperer, I’m not saying that lightly. My work, my business, my life, what I teach, what I share, is a direct extraction of my own personal life.
Feng shui is about energy – how energy flows, what the quality of the energy is and if there is enough energy so that you can accomplish the things that you want to do.
I’ve lived in different cities and I’ve seen the effects of what different environments can do to my energy. But I will try to distill it down to one easy concept for you today.
Your energy is your most precious asset. Without your own personal energy, there is no power, no clarity. There is no gas in the tank to get to where you want to go.
This week, I’m going to share a powerful ritual with you. Be note, that it’s NOT to protect your energy, because I want to emphasize that don’t come from a fear-based perspective. You know my coined term, Feng Shui Paranoia.
So we don’t say protect our energy in my world. We say conserve your energy, optimize your energy or grow and cultivate more energy, as that is where your power is.
One very simple, difficult, yet very actionable way to tend to your energy on a weekly, daily, hourly basis is to take a look at your boundaries. I like to use the analogy of water, a very important element in Feng Shui. Imagine knocking over a glass of water and the water just goes all over the place. If you have powerful flowing stream and the dam breaks, the water just goes all over the place, and the water may cause mayhem.
So you want to take a look at your container of water, or, your boundaries. Think about your boundaries with yourself and with others. Do you give too much to others and take energy away from yourself? Do you speak when not asked, or not speak when you feel like you need to? (energy is overexpended or stagnates) Do others overstep your boundaries, and regret it after?
Being a powerful woman means having a very powerful and intentional container. Your container is not just about how much you can hold, but in what you’re willing to contain. Because without boundaries, your energy doesn’t stay with you, but goes everywhere else. And over time, that’s what starts to dilute your power.
Instead of overthinking it, I want to give you something you a powerful Feng Shui ritual that is very simple to do. So that you can set your intention around creating and maintaining healthy boundaries – not overstepping other people’s boundaries, and not allowing others to step over yours.
The Healthy Boundary Ritual
1. Go out into nature and collect 9 small rocks. 9 is a very auspicious number in Chinese metaphysics, representing completion and wholeness.
2. Bring the rocks home and place them under the bed where you sleep so they can start collecting your energy.
3. Leave them untouched for 9 days.
4. At the end of the 9 days, take the stones out and place them together on a plate, or anything you like, as long as they stay together.
5. Place them somewhere you will see often, your nightstand, your desk, or anywhere visible in your environment.
6. Visualize these powerful reminders as a healthy boundary, a container, a dam that allows your energy to stay where it needs to so it does not overflow or become stagnant.
Each time you see the stones, it becomes a reminder of having healthy boundaries and how you want to hold your energy. This is the work. Not just understanding your energy, but learning how to hold it. How to direct it. How to create an environment that supports it instead of scattering it.
Feng shui is about intention. This is not magic, but it is a form of rewiring of your brain. This is what I’ve been refining for years through my own life and through my work with clients. And it’s the foundation of everything I teach.
If this resonated with you and you’re actively working on refining your energy and becoming a powerful woman, don’t just read today’s ritual. Do it.
