Feng Shui - Enhancing your Personal Chi

The concept of Feng Shui has been redefined to be used on a much more personal level, transforming how we dress and what we attract into our lives. The fact is, everything from your hairstyle to the style of your shoes affects your personal “chi” (personal energy), and can be enhanced by the use of Feng Shui.

This enhanced concept is called Fashion Feng Shui.  Several years ago, I had the opportunity to train under Fashion Feng Shui creator Evana Maggiore, who’s background lead her to develop a self-empowerment system that will connect you to your true essence by dressing with intention. Maggiore is both a Feng Shui Master and an international award winning Image Consultant. Maggiore and her business partner, Louise Elerding began applying Fashion Feng Shui to personal appearance and style in the late ' 90s, which they describe as a holistic method for creating harmony and balance in appearances.

Learning to use this energy in your life is very powerful in many ways. Just as you can change the energy of your environment to attract positive energy, the same is true of your most intimate environment, the clothing that you wear. Individuals project a certain "aura" based on how their organic color scheme mingles with the energy of various colors.

According to Fashion Feng Shui, people are mirrored in nature and their coloring (hair, skin and eyes) is reflected by the colors of these elements: water (black and dark tones); wood (blues and greens); fire (reds); earth (yellows and browns) and metal (whites).

Individuals can be a combination of the following schemes:
• Water -- If you have very dark hair, skin and eyes, you may be perceived to be mysterious, exotic, or sensual. Your organic neutrals: black and dark tones
• Wood -- Blue or green tints to eyes, hair (ash) or skin (olive) link you with the energies of heaven (blue sky) and earth (green plants). You may be perceived as approachable and natural. Your organic neutrals: blues and greens
• Fire -- If you have red tones to your hair, skin and eyes, you naturally attract attention. You may be perceived as dazzling, warm or exciting. Your organic neutrals: reds
• Earth -- If your hair, skin and eye colors evoke the richness of golden fields of grain, you may be perceived as stable, conservative and familiar. Your organic neutrals: yellows and browns
• Metal -- If your coloring is very pale or silver-toned, you may be perceived as refined, delicate or aloof. Your organic neutrals: white, pastels, grey.

Everyone is a combination of these energies. It’s exciting and fun to learn how to use them every day to find balance and harmony in your life. This is the most powerful self image tool I have ever come across. It pulled all the elements of my style together, and has helped me to attract wonderful opportunities into my life. The results, both personally, and for my clients has been amazing.
Would you like to know more about how to use this powerful system to enhance and mirror who you really are and connect with others in a more authentic and personable way? Then, let's talk...

Seven Ways to Reduce Holiday Stress

Image
What should be the happiest time of the year, is for many one of the most stressful.  We often give ourselves permission to overindulge and binge. We give into sugar cravings and our borderline bad habits. We don’t eat right, don’t get enough sleep and end up feeling anything but cheery! According to the American Psychological Association, this is more the norm than many of us care to admit. They say that during the holidays, people tend to experience heightened emotions, many feel overcome by loneliness and that intensifies our ability to deal with what would otherwise just be an annoyance. The APA also found that nearly half of all women in the US experience heightened stress during the holidays and that 41% use food and 28% use alcohol, to deal with that stress. While we may all feel the need to binge on an extra bag of cookies or share a drink to bring in the holiday cheer, there are many ways to keep a sense of peach and limit our emotions from spiking and diving to new d

What Color Is the Right Color?

What Color Is the Right Color? Color is all around us. We often do not appreciate or understand why we are drawn to some colors and dislike others. Many of our color preferences are acquired through personal experiences and often times unrealized psychological connections. We can learn a lot about ourselves through examining the colors that are prominent in our lives. We can also use color to direct focus in our lives. We can use it to instill confidence, to heal, and to find emotional balance. We may not realize the power that color has over us in our daily lives, but it is one way that advertisers and retail stores use to peak our interest and inspire emotional connections to their products. When considering changing or establishing an image for your business, color and design both in the logo and in your office can make or break your business. Consider the businesses you frequent, are the colors warm and inviting, bright and inspiring, or are they calm and safe?
