Springtime Tips

It’s Springtime, time to Refresh, Renew, Recharge!

Refresh your home Use the high energy of Springtime to clean your home or office. Open the windows to let the breezes clear out the stale air, clean the out some closets, wash curtains and rugs and do all those things you’ve been putting off. Maybe empty the fridge to give it a good cleaning and only put back in what you really use. Throw out that old jar of persimmon cinnamon barbeque sauce (that you’ve never used) Remember to infuse your home with positive thoughts and intentions as you clean.

Recharge your senses Spring thunderstorms refresh the air, flowering trees and shrubs exude perfume and color, plants push through the earth to greet the sun – let your senses be exhilarated by the experiences of Spring. Pay attention to the natural rhythms of the Earth for grounding yourself and getting energy. Go outside and Feng Shui yourself: look for all the five elements – wood, water, earth, metal, and fire – and enjoy!

Renew your body Springtime is the perfect time for fasting and cleansing the body. After enjoying the rich food of winter, we need to “rinse out”. This time of year, fresh bitter greens such as dandelion greens are available for fresh salads. Consider an herbal or juice cleanse to cleanout winter’s leftovers.

Get a fresh perspective Rearrange your furniture and change the artwork to have a new outlook on life. Our cozy nests are cozy, but sometimes we need to look at life from a different angle.

The element for Spring is wood Pay particular attention to plants now. Repot your houseplants, clean out your garden, or buy beautiful spring flowers for your home. The colors of the wood element are greens and blues. Use these colors this time of year to enhance Spring energy.
