Spring has sprung!


Spring is quickly approaching.  This weekend, I anticipate beginning to replace some of my over wintered plants back throughout my home to clear the stagnant chi that has accumulated during the winter months. Are you beginning to experience the winter doldrums? A touch depressed? Low energy? An excellent way to refresh the dwindling chi is by addition of plants!

I will be moving the hardier plants (evergreens, pothos) into the more mainstream areas of my home. There is almost no better plant then the ever-trailing pothos to purify air in a lethargic environment. You and your home will begin to experience the benefits of breathing in the freshened oxygenated air. New circulating oxygen means more “good” chi inside you and inside your home.

Using the tenets applied by feng shui, harmony is created by placing healthy plants inside a stressful or tiring surrounding. The atmosphere is recharged with new and positive chi circulating throughout the home. Try to place at least two plants in each room of your home if possible.  Peace lilies thrive in most lighting conditions and English ivy is a top notch plant for effectively remove stale chi as well as the pollution found inside your dwelling. You will find the curvy round leaves of the ivy also helps to draw in "good" money chi, as well, as it boosts a new high energy chi throughout your home.

If you’re working on a healthier relationship among family members, try placing a yellow flowering houseplant in a clay container or pot in the western area of your home.  Primroses, with their rounded leaves, are available this time of year in many garden shops and even grocery stores. Some come with sunny yellow blooms, are very easy to care for and are almost guaranteed to benefit the entire family splendidly.

Begin adding your plants back this month and start to reap the benefits! Spread the love.
