November is the month of remembering and gratitude. It starts with All Soul's Day which I discovered when I moved to Spain a few years ago. This is the day in which you remember those that you have loved and lost. In Spain, it is the day of the year in which they go to the cemetery to clean the graves of their family members.  For me, I toss roses into the sea as I spend time reflecting on the memories of those I love that no longer walk with me. It is a powerful way to start the month as we head into the holiday season and winter. This is the Remembering part of November which I love.

 

Who do you miss and like to remember especially as we enter the season of festivities? It is one way to make sure those that are no longer with us, continue to be a part of our lives when we remember their souls and give thanks for having loved them.

 

 

Then we go towards the end of the month and we have a day of Thanks with my favourite holiday, Thanksgiving!

 

This day is about family & friends breaking bread and just simply being together. The history of this holiday is fascinating and complex, just as our modern version of it is. However, it is the one holiday I feel has proven to remain basically pure and I am so grateful for THIS aspect of it. In a world which continues to move toward commercialisation with everything, this day of thanks is still one that remains pretty much the same as it was in my childhood. Though my personal circle of family & friends has changed dramatically over the years, this holiday is a day that warms my heart, no matter what part of the world I am living in.  For me it is the best of America. This is the Thankfulness part of November which I love.

 

 

 

What are you grateful for?

 

I am grateful to be graced to do work that I know makes a positive impact on the lives of my clients one space at a time. I am grateful for my health, my circle of friends and family that warm my daily life and the memories of those that I have been lucky enough to have known, lived and shared some magically moments with.

 

With the above in mind, we enter the holiday season with the focus on remembering the love of the past, honouring the sacredness of having lost and the gratitude for what we have left to love and offer others. 

 

My Holistic Interior Designs method is about practicing sacredness with our spaces, understanding we have a deep impact on the world, and our environment. Let me help you to make sure this impact causes some powerful, positive ripples.

 

 

 

The holidays can be very challenging times for many of us. It is a combination of expectations and memories that can haunt us from past.

 

Feng Shui is a mindfulness practice that combines the shifting of the physical environment we live, work, sleep and eat in, with the focus on shifting the energy within us. It is a balancing act for all the energy that surround us and is within us. 

 

With the holidays just around the corner, this could be the perfect time to check in with yourself and your space to make sure that it is helping you live your best life. 

 

Is your home clear of clutter? Does it make you smile when you walk in the door?  Do people feel cozy and happy when in the space? 

 

Or do you find there are arguments in your home over the holidays? Grumpy people, dissatisfied children, angry in-laws?  Do you lose things and waste time searching for them? Do you feel you need more time to clean your space than living in it?

 

If ANY of these problems exist in your home, I suggest you do a quick self review of your home by checking the 3 areas where clutter gathers the most.  In these areas, pick the one that annoys you the most. Then I suggest you do a Sage Clearing in this area, visualise the ideal version of this space and how it makes you FEEL inside, then set a time to create this perfect version of this space and once it is done, slow down for a moment. Sit and give thank to yourself and this ideal version of this one area of your home (even if the rest of the house is in chaos, just focus on this one area). I often do this ritual with another Sage Blessing Ritual. Giving yourself the gift of slowing down enough to make just one small step towards the home you dream of it the hardest, but most important part. This is the start of the ripple effect and trust me, this is very powerful stuff. Then go off, have fu and wait to see how that one area of your home will start to expand into the whole house. 

 

 

Do you or someone you know have some CLUTTER or disorganisation that is stopping you from being happy in your space? Or you have a MESSY or disorganised workspace that makes working from home a real burden and hassle? Or you just cannot find PEACE or balance for yourself anywhere in your home?

 

 

My personalised Holistic Interior Design approach and this focused Home Alignment Kit is a perfect way to KICK START the process of getting your home into a positive place.

 

If ANY or all of these issues negatively impact you or someone you love, you are hurting yourself and limiting your happiness. Or if you just want to start the New Year off on the right foot, then this could be the best way to do that. 

 

The Home ReAlignment Kit includes three 2-hour sessions to identify, acknowledge and resolve these three key problems in your home that are stopping you from living your best life. Each one is a process to identify and solve in key areas of the home that I have discovered are the main blocking points in our homes and lives. My decades of experience can provide you an insight to yourself and your space that will improve things in ways you can not imagine. 

 

Give a gift that keeps on giving way past the holiday season.
