Change Habits

After being away for a few months from the place I usually live, I sat in our local shopping center and watched people walked past.

Interestingly, I realised that the population had changed: much more Asians are now running the shops, many more African immigrants were now part of the current population. I wondered to what extent this newer changes impacted on consumerism! (By the way, these are happening all around the world.)

Where would they stop and purchase what they liked? Is this why there are so many shops changing since last year or is it simply because of the exhorbitant rent and change of habits of people buying online?

Buying online is fine for a few items. Luckily, for many people it will never replace the human contact and the fun people have going shopping and browsing.

When you go shopping next, sit down and think how much people are buy stuff they don’t really need and how much that impact on the garbage and on cluttering of their homes.

When you wish to buy something next… take it in your hands, look at it, then ask yourself “Do I REALLY need this?”.

When you buy online, think twice before tapping that ‘add to cart’ button.

We don’t NEED much to BE happy ❤

Thank you.

7 Day Feng Shui Challenge – Day 7

With the full moon tomorrow, it is really good that you have started all those 6 days of change. Indeed, now is the perfect timing to get rid of all habits and leave place for new ones.  🙂

Day 7 – Considering Photos

Many of you may still be working on cleaning out their in-boxes (emails, FB, FB posts, messages in their phones, etc.) and could find challenging the mission that comes up today with Day 7.

a) A few days ago, Day 2, you cleared your inboxes… The question is “How much NEW messages, posts and emails have you kept since then?” Have you started this automatic in-boxes clean-up daily, or automatically when it’s been dealt with – or have you kept the old habit of keeping everything?

b) Today is another titan mission: your digital photos!
You are aware that your photos take a huge amount of space on your computer HDD and on your phones. “How often do you look at ALL those photos?” (never – once only – once a year)… How many times do you refer to some of those photos? (sometimes to a few times in my lifetime – a few times per year – a few times per decade, …?)
Many people these days can take 5 shots of the same place and forget to only keep the favourite 1 and delete the other 4 that don’t look very good.

The excess of photos are clogging up your storage space…
How much is the same clogging happening in your head with all the excess of information causing you stress?

The photos of your holidays are only important to you and the people who were there. Ask yourself, how many photos do you really want to keep?

This photo has no real meaning for you as you probably haven’t been there. It’s a pond with coins in the superb Chiang Rai white temple! I am offering it to you and you may print it and use it as Feng Shui cure for your Abundance area (sector 4).

Suggestion – Each year, I prepare a little slide show with the photos of that year and the song that reminds me of those good times. I thus limit my number of photos per year to 50 approx. meaning 3 to 5 seconds for a 4 minutes song.

That doesn’t seem much at all does it!? Well this is all what I personally need to keep from my life for per year, the rest you can either put on a separate storage HDD after having eliminated the excess of ‘not good shots’ – or simply delete.

Scary isn’t it!?

I kept this digital photos clean up for Day 7 as this may well take you some time to achieve this task.

You will feel so much better afterwards!

Day 5 – The Air that we breathe

Your Feng Shui challenge/mission for today is simply to look after your lungs, which means taking are of what gives you the quality of the air that you breathe at home. Therefore, clean all vents and filters (air-conditioning, heaters etc)… and every other place that you know is essential for a good quality of air.

May I remind you that Feng Shui means Wind and Water, now you clear and aware how this mission of today is important.

DAY 4 – Shoes & Underwears

Interesting day again today…

Shoes
I’m sure that all of us have shoes we don’t wear anymore, those too tight, too old, wrong size, those that we bought and never wore… and never will wear 😀  all those shoes that have no real good reason to be in our shoe cupboards! NO more excuses, today, you give them away!
Shoes are the symbol of going forward in life ❤

Underwear
Elastics that don’t hold anything anymore, worn out undies, too small ones… you name it! I’m sure you have got some 🙂
Our underwear are our next skin, so our body deserves to be comfortable with nice underwear with nice colours that will make us feel good.
No more reason that those unwearable underwear overload your draws! Today, they leave your home!

You may now deserve to buy ONE new item (if you really need it!)

Congratulations to all of you who have managed to eliminate as much as possible from all your Inboxes during Day 2! 🙂

DAY 3 – Take care of your Entry Door

Today, we stay away from the computer, we move! We go outside and have a good look at all the details of our entry door. We dust it, clean its windows, repair what may not be working, put healthy plants in nice (unbroken) pots – or anything else that you fancy doing with that front door.

Moreover…
1. Make sure your doorbell is in working order
2. Your door mat is welcoming visitors in front of the door
3. Your house number is clearly indicated

A Day 3 much more relaxing than yesterday… which may allow some of you to finish clearing those inboxes that were not done yesterday.

The 7 Day Feng Shui Challenge – Day 2

Now that your mailbox is shining and probably the cleanest one of your whole street, it is time to pass onto Challenge Day 2.

DAY 2 – Clean your Emails/Facebook and other multi media INBOXES

I kept this one for a Saturday because this may take ‘a while’.

Sorry to say, these days we also have another Mailbox… your INBOX(es) of your emails, your Facebook etc.

Yes, sorting the INBOXes of your email addresses, Facebook page(s) and other electronic accounts that you may have anywhere else online would be a lot of work for some of you!
Sit for an hour… or a few hours… sort emails/messages by categories or you may envisage to delete them when you are sure that you won’t need them anymore!

Do you still need to keep track of those old posts and old conversations on Facebook – are they important or can they be tossed!?

How long did it take you? How do you feel after this?

The 7 Day Feng Shui Challenge – Day 1

Many of us would like a life change or simply are wanting to receive good news… you know, something that happens and that makes us feel ‘good’.

Today is the 1st day of my Feng Shui Challenge with you.

DAY 1 – Clean your Mailbox at HOME

At HOME
Our mailbox outside our home or in the entry foyer of our building is the symbol of receiving news. I looked at like mine this morning, a bird had left his ‘track’, the dust was outside the mailbox and inside too!  😦  “Oops”– I thought – “How can I get something good happening in my life when my mailbox doesn’t look very welcoming at all!”

So, I cleaned it, dusted it and added a note so I won’t get any junk mail anymore – I was meant to do this for a long time! ( Yes, I am normal  😀 )
It already does look and feel much better! Now, time to buy some shining product from the shop and make that number 42 shine.

Looking forward to hearing from you and seeing your before and after photos in reply to this post.
