Feng Shui for your Summer Travels

BySusan Chan

It’s officially the last month of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere.I am sorry to depress you with this reminder and for those of you who have kids, I’m sure you’re already feeling it. If you haven’t gone away already, it’s not too late! There are still plenty of August days clamoring for last minute getaways and day trips. And…

Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot!

BySusan Chan

Gosh darn it NYC, it’s hot outside. Summer is definitely here in its full and beautiful glory. It’s beach / watermelon eating / dancing under the stars weather and all I hear from those around me is, “I’m exhausted.” So what’s up? This feeling of exhaustion makes sense not only because the warmer weather makes us more active…

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…

Do you love where you plant your feet?

BySusan Chan

Today is Earth Day, a very important day. We tend to forget what this beautiful ecosystem provides to us, only momentarily remembering global ecology when it hails in May. On this day, let’s focus our energy on giving back to Mother Earth. On the spiritual plane, if you have a meditation, yoga or other intentional…

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…

Put a Spring in Your Step

BySusan Chan

There’s no denying that Spring is on the horizon. In NYC, we thought it would never come but our unusual east coast patience is paying off. Beautiful sunny days are squeezed between snow flurries and there’s no ignoring the excitement on everyone’s rush hour faces when it’s still daylight at 6pm. Hooray Daylights Savings Time!…

Growing for Valentines

BySusan Chan

Valentine’s day is creeping up on us. Mixed feelings arise, I get it. But it can be a fun holiday, celebrated however you like. Whether just a homemade dinner or a full blown dinner with a dozen roses, I say go for it. That’s what I take away from Valentines – do what makes your…

No smoking please

BySusan Chan

It may be a strange thing to be talking about smoke alarms on the eve of Thanksgiving. Or maybe not. When I saw this product in a magazine recently, I was intrigued by its beauty but thought to myself, “Ok, but does it really work?” When I visited the Nest website and watched this video,…
