Harmonizing for the Thanksgiving Holiday

Holidays- you either love them or hate them! They are supposed to be a time of harmony, love, hope and joy. Unfortunately, for many, it can be a friction-filled time with extended family & friends. Not that any of us want that at all.

If you are hosting this year’s Thanksgiving, there are ways you can harmonize your home for the holidays. Utilizing some basic principles of Feng Shui, (an ancient practice of organizing your environment to inspire and support your goals and desires), you can enhance the flow of energy or chi for a time that is indeed filled with harmony, love and hope.

The Thanksgiving Table can be a place of much joy. To support this, follow a few simple implementations:

Clean and Clutter Clear your house especially your dining area before Thanksgiving. Pay close attention to pictures of family and/or events that might bring back sad, painful or combative memories!
Decorate with simplicity and with lighting low and soothing music.
Decorate with earth tones (easy at Thanksgiving) with colors like gold, brown and green.
Have an even number of guests around the table and pay particular attention to the seating arrangement. Try not placing an overbearing guest at the head of the table.
Keep sharp edges to a minimum (they create what is called “Arrow Chi”) and remove the carving knife from the table after the turkey is sliced.

Following this advice will help flow of energy around the dining room which should be the center of your intention of Thanksgiving on this special holiday. We hope you have a weekend filled with much joy and gratitude. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call our office! With a little planning and creativity, you CAN create the environment you desire. What ideas from above or that you think of will you implement?
