What the Goat wants you to Know

BySusan Chan

The Year of the Goat promises to be very different than last year. 2014 was Year of the Wood Horse – lots of action, energy, ups and downs. And if you weren’t prepped and well strapped in, you surely felt that saddle. Ouch. This year’s goat energy is going to be friendlier although not without…

Happy Holidays, With a Side of Tough Love

BySusan Chan

You’ll often hear me refer to December as the perfect time of year to focus on yourself. It’s counterintuitive as you’re probably running around right now like a mad person, trying to get everything done before 2014 disappears. Or maybe you’ve already exhausted yourself and entered a catatonic state of denial. I’ve already visited both extremes this month. Hey, I’m human…

Prepping Your Inner and Outer Homes for the Holidays

BySusan Chan

While the festive superficial bling is fun and endearing, what I really cherish is what’s underneath.

Festivities can bring up alot of mixed feelings and emotions.

Overwhelm, fatigue, the oh so familiar, “I-can’t-get-myself-off-the-couch-to-do-anything” feeling.

But being the optimist or activist as I am, I feel that this is the perfect time of year to face your “stuff” underneath and really see how things are working (or not) in your life.

Looking at and preparing your inner home especially as the year finishes out, will definitely help smoothly transition into the new year.

Double Your Personal Success With Mirrors

BySusan Chan

So here’s the thing you need to know about mirrors. Mirrors are a BIG DEAL. Compared to what aspirin is to doctors, in Feng Shui, mirrors are sometimes considered the cure-all used as simple remedies for many things. But it’s much more profound than that.
The mirrors in your home are a mirror of your life. Let that sit with you a minute.

Wk 1: Fall Cleanse – Your Piles vs You

BySusan Chan

Being a Feng Shui Consultant doesn’t make me virtuous nor immune to clutter. Last week I found myself staring at a pile of things that were – guess where – smack in the middle of my abundance area. A leaning tower of things I needed to get fixed or donate and all the in-betweens. Just…

Oh Sunlight, Where Art Thou?

BySusan Chan

Some of you are beginning to get a bit freaked out that the sun is starting to set at 7:30pm.No more summer cocktails on the patio or fresh-air activities with the kids after work. This darkness makes us want to make a beeline to our caves (a.k.a beautifully Feng Shui-ed homes).I actually didn’t even pay any attention to this seasonal…

Used, Inherited or Saturated Objects

BySusan Chan

It’s officially Autumn and we naturally want to spend more time indoors, feeling the need to nest and finally getting those pesky home projects started. That means it may be time to decide what to do with that stuff that’s piling up – like the sad doggie painting that was a gift from Aunt Sally or the antique lamp you inherited…

The Light in the Darkness

BySusan Chan

Ya got a minute? C’mon, humor me. Take a look around you. Slowly drink it all in. What do you see? Are you happy with what surrounds you? Are you where you want to be? Are the things that surround you a true reflection of you and what matters most to you in life? Please read the next…

BySusan Chan

The Fall Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere falls on September 23rd and many people find the seasonal shift from warm to cooler weather to be very challenging. Days are shorter, flowers and trees lose their colorful vibrancy and you need to start piling on more layers. This change of season is…
