Barefoot Feng Shui - Tune your life

Monkey Mind = constant chattering, distracting, involuntary thoughts that are often worries and judgements, complaints, thoughts about the past missteps, worries about our appearance, anxious projections of future events etc. Most of us find quietening the "monkey mind" is very difficult and frustrating, but it's so important to do this before we begin working with Feng Sui Tuning. In this video we find simple tools that are effective in finding and holding our quiet mind. These exercises only take a few minute a day and you can use them effectively anywhere anytime. When our mind is quietened, we can perceive the rivers of energy in our environment and it enables us to open to the knowing that is naturally a part of us. When we can do this we can adjust the flows and make the changes in out lives that we desire. 

In Feng Shui Tuning  we use our natural intuition to enable us to perceive how energy flows and discover tools that can help us to ‘tune’, balance and adjust the energies of our life. The iconic scientist Albert Einstein said, "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift."

Nothing can be more accurate than our intuition when we are wanting to perceive the energy flows in our life, all Feng Shui is about how Qi or energy flows.

In this class we discover how to open our energy eyes, this is something that people who ride horses have done for years, they call it "easy eyes". Equestrians discovered that they connect with their horses easily and have great success in moving with the horse. No need to break a horse. We use energy eyes to help us to go to our source and open our natural intuition. We can use it when we need to be calm, or powerful in meetings and generally.

Discovering how to perceive the rivers of energy and focusing on our intention helps us to tune our life through our environment.

Yin /Yang are two cycles creating and expressing the wholeness. They are life expressing itself in the inner and outer realms or dimensions. They are two halves that move together, one after the other pulling energy into and out of matter. When one diminishes the other gets stronger and so we move from Yin to Yang and back in a never ending cycle of life, death, change and transformation. 

The word Yin means “inner" or "shady side” and Yang means “outer" or "sunny side”.

Yin Yang is the concept of two (that appear to be opposites) cycles forming a whole, the inner becoming the outer and visa versa. We find Yin and Yang in everything and in every part of our lives. We wake Yang...we go to sleep Yin. We run ...Yang, we rest...Yin.  The balance of the two cycles is the balance of life and when they are not in balance we find imbalance in our body(illness) our emotions and our environment. The balance of Yin yang is the most important concept in Toaism from which Feng Shui emerged.

In this lecture we explore in more depth the cycles Yin and Yang and how  powerful they are in our life. We explore what to do to balance them and how to recognize when they are not inbalance. We find that we can create kits to help us to balance Yin and Yang in our day to day lives and even when we travel. We explore ways and ideas to balance Yin and Yang throughout our life.

The Bagua is a Feng Shui tool that has been used for centuries.  Bagua consists of eight tri-grams and is one of the main tools used in all Feng Shui schools. It's considered an “energy map”.  Each area represents an area of our life. Analyzing the energy in each space gives us clarity about what is going on in our life and what we want to change.

Through understanding the Bagua, we can 'tune' energy flows to focus on things we need to or want to change. We can enrich our life by increasing the positive Qi or energy and correct the imbalances.

The ancient Masters of Feng Shui searched for keys to balancing our life. They discovered that there were five major energies expressed in all matter that must be balanced for us to lead a life that is healthy and vital.

These vital energy flows are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element has a unique quality of energy and flow that is expressed in specific colors, sounds, body organs, planets, flavors and more.

Wood represents energy emerging - bringing life into material form. It enables everything to grow and blossom, from humans, to projects, to ideas, to animals, to plants, even the stars. Wood is the energy that births everything and everyone and is also associated with motivation, creativity and ideas. We explore how it feels, when it is in balance and when it's not and how to identify it in our environment and use it to balance our life.

Fire is the cycle of creation and destruction of matter.  It is the element and energy which brings matter together and holds it into form.  It is also the element that can destroy matter.  Fire energy doesn’t die but moves inward and rises again like a phoenix.

Fire energy helps us to find our intensity, activity, enthusiasm and passion. Its natural function is to move us from intense activity to a totally peaceful joyous state.

It can be a balancer between activity and relaxation - Yin and Yang. We explore how to identify and feel Fire, how to balance the energies of fire and what to do if it needs balancing.

The earth element is the element that holds and balances all of the other elements. Our bodies rise from it and fall back into it when we die. Our food emerges from it, as does everything else including the air we breath. Without Earth being in balance, nothing can be in balance. When earth is in balance we feel confident, nurtured and comfortable with who we are. This lecture explores Earth, how it manifests and what we can do to balance this powerful cycle.

The cycle of Metal holds the energy of intelligence, contraction, healing, and creativity. It helps us to crystallize ideas, concepts and experiences and gather wisdom from them. Metal brings us the power of concentration, objectivity, healing and clarity of vision. It helps us to bring freshness and ease into our environments and life. We discover how we feel when metal is off balance and what we can do to balance the flow.

Water is the most powerful and also the most serene cycle. It is the cycle for the beginning and end of life and all of it's stages. In our environment it can bring a sense of renewal, ease and flow. Water has long been associated with abundance in all areas of our life and wealth.

Water is the first and last element or cycle in the circle of creation. Energy moves from our source to the manifest world and back in a never ending circling of cycles. All cycles are essential for ease and balance in our life and water is the foundation.

Here we explore specific areas and aspects of our home and suggest changes to "cure" what might be causing imbalance and suggest changes and ideas that can energetically enhance specific aspects of our lives.

Here we continue our walk and explore a few more concepts to help us to balance our environment.

In this class we share practical and easy "fixes" to our environment that bring powerful change.

Now you can use your Tuning to Feng Shui Tune your life.
