There are loads of ways to use feng shui to make your home happier. When something feels wrong in our lives we feel discouraged and quickly sadness takes over our hearts and minds. It’s then when the delicate balance between yin and yang begins to fall and we start to feel uneasy.
According to Feng Shui, every emotion is linked to a specific organ of our body. Have you ever felt a pressure in your chest when you're sad? It’s almost like the pain actually comes from the heart! We feel shortness of breath and tend to sigh a lot. This is because the feeling of sadness is linked to the chest and lungs and has everything to do with breathing.
Did you know that when we feel sad our home stops breathing? We open fewer windows than usual, we close the curtains, we don’t stare at the beautiful world around us anymore, we eat poorly, we lock ourselves in.
Luckily, there are several ways to use feng shui to make your home happier.
