I was having a harried morning before a Feng Shui consultation today. Things were not moving along smoothly and there seemed to be a hiccup at every turn and it was only 8am! Having gone through my ritualistic preparation before leaving my home, I brought my attention to my immediate surroundings. Most Feng Shui practitioners know…
A very talented artist and friend Robert Mars recently had an opening at Monopol Hotel is St. Moritz, Switzerland. His artwork is stunning and has garnered international acclaim. So much so that his artwork is on permanent display at the Monopol. The best part of his show (besides the location of course), is what the…
Have you ever seen a rainbow and not smiled? Exactly. In Paris’ Grand Palais exhibition space, French artist Daniel Buren has done just that – created whimsy and happiness in a 13,500 square meters in an exhibit titled, “Excentrique(s), Travail in Situ.” Just take a look at these photos and see for yourself. Now isn’t…
These lovely stairs were designed by APOLLO Architects in their newest building in Kitayama-cho, Fuchu, Tokyo called Ring. The overall look is serene and airy but the staircase makes me a bit nervous. Chi is a very important element in Feng Shui.

On such an adventure, I stumbled upon a beautiful in-store design that was short of a full blown art installation. From afar, the delicate colors were ethereal. The pattern, mesmerizing. The…
Sunday tea at the Mondrian. Or their restaurent, Imperial No. Nine to be exact. Almost as nice as a drive to the country. Almost. The main differences are that it’s off the R train and is filled with fashionistas. The menu looked good (we only had beverages and a nibble) and most importantly the setting…
Today is official World Feng Shui Day! It’s a great day to spread the news about what you love about Feng Shui or to incorporate Feng Shui into your life. It can be as easy as setting an intention for your coming week or helping friends do something they cannot doing themselves. It’s about moving…
Decluttering. Minimal. Those are the buzz word going around these days especially around resolution times. Feng Shui involves placing furniture and personal belongings so that energy or Chi can move freely and optimally. I must emphasize though that the person/s using the space must feel their energy is settled, secure and happy within this environment….
