Feng Shui: Steps to move forward in your life

Anything is possible

It is never easy to go back to school after a break of many years. Once you are immersed in life, taking time out to study can be challenging. With changing times, many people change careers or decide to choose a new path. However taking time out to prepare for the new opportunity or fitting evening school in your tight schedule can be challenging. I know many clients who have taken the plunge to upgrade their CV and get a higher degree or enroll in a evening course. The question is how do you manage your life while being in the fast lane and can Feng Shui help?

The practice of Feng Shui brings about balance and harmony in your life, there by inviting new opportunities. If your goal is to continue working while studying, Feng Shui can surely help in creating a more favourable environment that will allow you to focus on what is important. By balancing your study area and your home, you will be able to achieve your goals with ease.

One of the most important aspects of Feng Shui is to be able to access the study direction. This direction can be obtained by calculating your kua number, based on your date of birth. It is ideal to face this direction while studying, so that you are not distracted. Secondly dedicate a special quiet corner in your home for studying. Ideally this corner needs to be in favourable area where good Flying Star Feng Shui formulae stars are placed. Enhance your study corner by placing crystals or displaying earthen pots. Having more earth energy in your study corner, can help bring stability and grounding. Surround yourself with supportive friends and family. Create a vision board of your final goal of achieving a higher degree and display it opposite your study desk. It will be a visual anchor for your sub conscious mind and will not let you deviate from your goals. Perform regular space clearing around your study desk by using incense or bakhoor. This will help in clearing out stagnant energy.

Last but not the least, the practice of meditation will help you to sharpen your mind and enhance your focus. Ten minutes of simple mind calming exercises can help you remain on the path of your dreams. If you don’t know how to meditate, then simply play soothing music, switch off your phone and lie down or sit in a comfortable position. Train your mind to switch off from time to time to release stress.

Going back to studies after a long gap is never easy. However by following the above-mentioned simple steps, you will turn your dreams into reality and realise anything is possible.
