Spring is the season of renewal, manifestation, celebration and falling in love. Now is the time to take those bold feng shui steps and go full-force into action to make your New Year's resolutions happen. Feng Shui is here to help.

If you still feel sluggish and low-energy after a long and maybe challenging winter, here are some proven-and-true feng shui steps to lift your energy up. Spring Cleaning and Clutter Clearing are the keywords and the goal is get rid of everything that does not serve you anymore. Make space for new, fresh feng shui energy to come into your life.

  • If you are striving to improve your health, get rid of all the items that are cluttering and blocking the energy flow in your kitchen (especially your cupboards and the freezer.) The state of your kitchen is the state of your health, so do yourself a favor and thoroughly clean that kitchen!

    De-clutter the refrigerator; clean the stove and all the pots and pans. Let go of all harsh chemical cleaners from the kitchen and go for natural ones. Clean out all the drawers, surfaces, light fixtures, etc - create a fresh pathway for strong vibrant Chi to flow and nourish your energy!

  • Bring three new pots with vibrant feng shui green plants to refresh the energy of your space and symbolize, as well as ground, the energy of new beginnings. If you plan to place them in the kitchen, go for lush and aromatic rosemary or mint. Focus on your main entrance, as well as your kitchen, as both are strongly connected to your health.


  • If you would like to welcome a new love relationship into your life, make space, and I mean actual, physical space, for this new person to be in your home. You literally have to create an open flow of energy in your space to be able to attract and manifest more of what you are looking for.
Clarify, purify and let go. Renew your space and renew your body. Step into a new way of being, fill it with a happy and healthy energy of excitement and creativity. Happy New Beginnings, Celebrations and Fun Memories to Behold!
