Good Morning!

 

Use All Your Senses: Visual Esthetics

 

The power of our senses can be harnessed as an unbelievable tool that

you can use to your life advantage! By eating well, living in a

healthy manner that works for YOU and working in a clutter free

environment are essential for living well. Diffusing essential oils

for stress stimulates our use of our acute sense of smell as does the

background sounds that we hear, help promote the " flow " of our work

and are simple little tricks that can make us better achievers in

life. The ability to use our visual skills in learning life's

lessons can be a great advantage, as well as using our tactile skills

to become better human beings.

 

 

Visual Esthetics

 

Feng Shui (pronounced Fung Shway) is the ancient Chinese art of

placement to enhance the flow of " vital life energy " known as Qi.

Practitioners believe that rooms, buildings and all environments can

be arranged and decorated in a way that maximizes the flow of Qi and,

resulting in improvements to health and happiness of those who live

in that environment.

 

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese practice of arranging a physical

environment to maximize personal harmony and success. Feng Shui is an

expression of the oneness and interconnectedness of all things on all

levels and all dimensions. This is a " key concept " in understanding

how our essence relates to everything else around us, including our

environment. As we begin to sense this oneness we then find that it

is possible to gain insight from looking at our environment on a

broader scale. It is often said that " Feng Shui teaches us what we

already know " .

 

Seeing is a special sense. Rhodopsin in the rods is activated by a

photon of light > light activates a G protein call " Transducin " >

Transducin activates phosphodiesterase > phosphodiesterase hydrolizes

many molecules of cyclic GMP > hyrdrolization of cyclic GMP causes gates

in the cell to close cutting off the flow of sodium ion causing an action

potential > the action potential travels through many layers of retina

through the optic nerve > to the cerebral cortex where it is interpreted

as vision.

 

Visual Esthetics is the organization our brain keeps. Our eyes are

attracted to visual esthetics and beauty. In Feng Shui, the bottom

left side of a room, as determined if you are standing at the room's

entrance looking in, is known as the knowledge area. Enhancing the

positive Qi energy in this area contributes to learned wisdom,

self-cultivation and spiritual development which is the potential

to grow from within. If you're excited about what Feng Shui might

be able to do in your life, here's

an outline for you:

 

* Thoroughly clean and de-clutter every part of your environment.

 

•Yes, everything. Unfortunately, " there are no hiding places in Feng

Shui. "

•That means you don't get any junk drawers, let alone any junk rooms.

•Decluttering is important – maybe even potent enough to overcome

your resistence.

 

* Lacking motivation?

• Display symbols of what you want to achieve in life.

• Keep shiny metal objects and fresh flowers on your desk.

• Keep your desk tidy.

 

*Not assertive enough?

• Get rid of clutter; keep plenty of empty space around you.

• Keep your chair as high as is comfortable or use a stool.

 

*Learning materials

• Put your books, computer manuals, magazines, or newspapers in your

knwledge area.

•Before wisdom comes knowledge, so place those things you want to

become an expert at in this area.
