If you are familiar with Feng Shui and you've read Feng Shui books, one of the "cures" suggested is the use of mirrors. You can use them to expand an area that you would like to improve, you can also place them for a missing area, recreating energetically this area, you can also use them to "push away" an energy that is not yours. It is an easy and still powerful cure.
BUT, really pay attention on what your mirror is going to reflect... common sense, if the mirror, the way you placed it, reflects an area with clutter... it will create more clutter!, if it reflects nothing... more of nothing.. and so on. Mirrors are an easy cure and an easy way to "fix" an area IF it is the appropriate cure for that particular area that you would like to enhance.

Clear your space
Most people think that we need to perform a space clearing when something really negative happened. That is right of course but there is many other situations where a space clearing can help us in our life. It doesn't have to be negative. You can do a space clearing when you want to change the energy in your home or office.
We obviously clean "physically" our house at least once a week... we can do a space clearing right after. It doesn't mean that you had a particular bad week, it just means that you're done with that week, some aspects of it were positive, some aspects of it were probably challenging and so you write down your intentions for the next week clearing the past one.
If you had a big party at your house, you loved it, but maybe you don't really want to still have this "party energy" around you which could be too much for the rest of the week or the week end, clear your space from that evening. To clear is not "let's get rid of that bad energy"! To clear is looking for something new, positive, that can support and bring new opportunities for your next step in your life.

Add Colors!
So many times I told a client to add colors to her or his space!, so many times I told my students to add colors as a less expensive way to bring changes in their space... and I sometimes forgot about it for myself, for my own space... and when you do it, it feels sooooo much better! I just did it ... with turquoise! I love it!
Of course you can check the bagua map to check the color that would be the best for this particular area you want to change but mostly, as I would often say, follow your intuition and your own taste... If you do not like red, don't paint your front door red! Choose the color that makes you feel good, full of energy, happy! That is what I just did and it already feels different and really good! And I have to say that it is fun to do... of course if you like to paint... if not... call a friend to do it with you!

Don't sell your house for a "missing corner"
One of my students shared with me that she called a practitioner to come to her house that she just had bought. She was of course very excited to show her new space and home and wanted to know how to improve everything in her space...
As soon as the consultant got out of the car, the reaction was NOT the one this student would have excepted at all. The consultant right away told her that she needed to sell the house right away because she had a missing corner!!! That was thoughtful!!! even if I'm sure that this consultant's intention was good ... BUT, you really don't have to sell your house even if you have a "missing corner". First check if you have challenges in this particular area represented by this missing corner, and then, even if you have some issues, there is plenty of Feng Shui cures to balance the space and the area ... so, really, don't sell your house... particularly if you just bought it and you're happy with your move!

Only Good Feng Shui
That is right, there is not such thing as good Feng Shui and bad Feng shui. The most important thing is that the changes you bring in your space (home or office) should be meaningful to you. It will be good feng shui if you love what you did, if you enter the space thinking "that is just beautiful"... the same decors could be "bad feng shui" for someone else that doesn't like it. When you look at your space, the question is always the same, how do you feel when you enter that particular room, that particular space. If you enter your office and at each time you feel that you are not as creative as you should be, make a change, check what is going on in the space... and because your life changes and we all change over the years, after different experiences, we need to change our spaces on a regular basis as well. A space that could work for you 10 years ago, won't work right now, maybe you need to add colours, maybe you need to change your desk, add a mirror, hang an inspiring painting right in front of your desk....

Keep it ... or not!
It is always a question linked to Feng Shui and Space clearing.. should I keep this or should I get rid of it?
The answer HAS to come from YOU, not from any consultant! The most important thing is to see if when you look at the object your feel that your energy rises or on the contrary you feel down. If it is a useful tools for you or your job, keep it of course, if you remember good happy memories looking at it, keep it of course, if you love it with no apparent "logical" reqson, keep it of course! but if it does bring to you bad or sad memory that is the time you can definitely get rid of it! That is that simple and nobody, nobody can tell you what to do except you! Respect your own intuition

Inukshuk
Inukshuk: The mysterious stone figures, meaning "someone was here" or "you are on the right path"... It can be small or large, several rocks balanced on each other... each one is unique... It is a welcoming sign, it is a sign for friendship or for team work as well.
I liked this word and the meaning of it. It show us how we can really balance our energies and help balance each others energies in our world. It shows how important it is to consider who's coming next or what's coming next in our lifeeven if we don't know it yet! So related to Feng shui, space and life in general!
