Moving out of a Space, Feng Shui Style

BySusan Chan

Congratulations! All that hard work has paid off. You found your new space. Time to create that To-Do List – pack boxes, change your address, order a new sofa. But hold on a sec! Before you do any of that, you want to think about what you need to do in your existing space before you close…

Finding Your Nest, Feng Shui Style

BySusan Chan

New York is a city of movers and shakers. Especially this time of year. It seems like everyone is either dreaming of moving, actively looking for a new home or just changed residences. That’s alot of chi movement. In Feng Shui, the Chinese philosophy of balance or yin/yang is of utmost importance. We don’t want anything to be…

We got a couple of Phoenixes in the House

BySusan Chan

Fast! Run over to St. John the Divine in upper Manhattan to get a glimpse of the amazing work by Chinese artist, Xu Bing. Ok you don’t really have to run. I was just so enthralled by the installation when I saw it that I want everyone to run over there too. Two phoenix sculptures…

Enter Here

BySusan Chan

I’ve always loved doors – colorful doors, quirky doors, classic doors. It doesn’t matter. Doors have a big significance in Feng Shui. Your front door is where energy enters your space (ideally) and where potential opportunities come in. It is also said that the doors of the home represent the mouths of the individuals who…

Twist and Maybe Shout

BySusan Chan

Can you use “Spring Clean” as a verb? Well I am because yesterday, I Spring Cleaned my internal body in a yoga class. It’s not as weird as it sounds. In Feng Shui, Spring is about movement and upward energy. This is often the time we choose to detox since it’s following nature’s natural flow of…

Slay Stagnant Energy with a Dragon!

BySusan Chan

One issue that people often find in their spaces is this feeling of “stagnant” energy. The chi or energy of the space is not moving and it feels like things are stuck. Ick, definitely not a good feeling. Movement is key! In Feng Shui, one way to remedy this situation is to add lighting. I…

Clear Your Path for Opportunities!

BySusan Chan

I just returned from the beautiful city of New Orleans where they have curbside beauty perfected. I often forget about the charming houses until I am there again, imagining myself sipping lemonade on the veranda. For me, it’s a reminder of how important keeping the front of our homes clear and clean as well as…

Did You Make Space?

BySusan Chan

Spring Spring Spring! It’s what we all are waiting for. Even me, who unabashedly admitted earlier this season that weather doesn’t affect me. Well after this endless NYC winter, it’s affecting me! In Feng Shui, the Spring season signifies New Beginnings. Think of it like a second chance at New Years! Great things can happen…

Singing for Spring

BySusan Chan

No I won’t actually make you sing, I was just referring to the song in my heart this glorious morning (although feel free to belt out a tune if that’s what you feel!) We’ve waited so long for this day – The Spring Equinox. A time of beginnings and renewals. The perfect day to write…
