Manifesting with the Law of Attraction

Master Lin Yun, founder of Black Hat Tibetan Feng Shui, has
stated that making Feng Shui enhancements without
intention, is only 10% effective. However, add intention
and you’ll get a 120% improvement!

If you listen to successful people talk about what makes
them successful, one of the elements is being clear about
what they want. And it’s not just a vague idea, like to be
happy, or to be wealthy. Their goals are SMART goals, they
are: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and
Timely. So, what’s the outcome you are going for? How
will you know when you reach it?

Everything around you affects you. Whether it’s a pile
of clutter, a relationship that is dragging you down, or a
broken doorbell - everything is part of what you are
creating, whether you are conscious of it or not.

Learning about Feng Shui will give you a heightened
awareness of how you interrelate with everything in your
environment. That’s quite a responsibility. So, the
question becomes - do you want to go through your life
hoping things work out, or do you want to design a
fulfilling and passionate life for yourself? Do you want
to be the cause or the effect?

Applying Feng Shui with intention will set your life on an
altered course. You’re making a commitment - it’s
powerful. I’ve seen clients begin Coaching, or Feng Shui,
feeling stuck in an aspect of their lives, and within one
week had several options magically open up to them. They
unleashed a series of opportunities and opened up a pipeline
to possibility. It’s also about focus. What you focus on
expands, and when you move from focusing on feeling stuck,
to a wider view of focusing on outcomes, the Universe steps
in to support you.

And why not go for some BHAGs? they are Big, Hairy,
Audacious Goals. Live your life as a daring adventure.
You have the opportunity to create whatever you choose for
Your life, so think big!

The clearer you are about what you’re choosing to create,
the greater the chance of having what you want, and the
more effective the Feng Shui. Clearing clutter, or placing
enhancements with intention is extremely powerful. It’s
the difference between making a 10% improvement or making a
120% improvement.

Maximizing the Power of Your Enhancements

Use these tools to create an environment of success that
will support powerful outcomes for yourself. Make your
self a priority and design the life of your dreams.

1. Get clear and very specific about your desired outcome,
and write this down.

2. Remove the clutter and clean the area.

3. Choose an enhancement - something that represents the
change you would like to create, and place it in the
appropriate area of your home or room.

4. Visualize or imagine your outcome as if it’s already
happened - how does it feel?

5. Speak your desired outcome out loud, in the present
tense. Always add, ‘this or something better, for the
Highest Good now occurs’. An example is: “I now have 2 new
clients who are a perfect fit for me. This or something
better, for the Highest Good now occurs”.

6. Start taking action towards your outcome.

Sometimes your Higher Power, sees a much bigger picture
than you do, so don’t place any limitations on what you
might receive.

Feng Shui will move you towards the next step in designing
your life.

I remember one of the first things I learned about money was don’t count on it. Did you ever notice just when you thought you would actually not only meet all your bills but have a little left over to actually indulge yourself in something good, something happens that removes it before we’ve ever even seen it? The car will break down, the plumbing will leak and the list goes on.

In Feng Shui we designate certain areas of the Bagua to our money concerns and enhancing them will certainly help us hold onto it and even help us bring about prosperity into our lives. However, before we use the bagua to help utilize and create additional wealth, lets take a look at how we handle money.

For example, you’re online at the grocery store and there is a line, the cashier is impatient and you’re packing as fast as you can. Do you ever look at your change or take a minute to put your change away properly? Oftentimes it will just get pushed in our pockets without a thought except to get out of there. In Feng Shui Principles, this is actually disrespectful of your money. Try to step aside for a moment, put your money away properly and you can then also see at a glance about how much you have.

Keep an eye out that you’re only buying necessities. When times are a little difficult financially, try to remember the difference between what you really need and what you would like to have. Buy only the necessities during this time so you can have some left over for another necessity that will surely pop up before your next pay day. Doing without some of the little things for a time will benefit you in the long run and leave you less stressed.

Although you may not know because you don’t want to know, keep account of what you’re charging instead of just checking the statement at the end of the month. Knowing the state of your true financial affairs include those credit cards which can get out of hand without you’re even realizing it. Check on your balances periodically during the month by just calling the number on the back of the card to see your true balance that month of how you are doing financially.

Keep track of not only your “regular” bills but also the ones that come every six months or so, like car insurance. Being somewhat prepared for that extra money during certain months will help you to hopefully be mindful in trying to put away some money toward them so you will not feel strapped because you forgot they were due.

Of course there are many other ways to cut down even slightly on your spending. Remove services you can do without, invest in a lawnmower and do your own maintenance, think hard if you really need that expensive dinner out with friends or if you’d be just as happy to see them afterward for coffee or a drink. The list is long if you really think about it.
Now to Bagua your home in every sense of the word. Think of the Bagua as a layout that you can place over anything: an entire home or business including the property, a room or just a desk. You can use the Bagua in a very large space or a very small one.

Certain areas are dedicated to parts of the Bagua. For example, the center always represents health. Stand at the front of your home and the left back area will be your “money” area. This is the area, from an exterior that we want to enhance. If no money is coming in, you might want to use something that “moves” in that area to get your money moving in. Feng Shui colors for this area are Green (The Color of Money) and Purple as an accent color. So you might want to use something as simple as a Green Windsock, keeping your Intention that you would like money to start coming in by signifying movement and color. Intention creates the Energy behind it so be sure to have that in place.

You can do the same inside your house as well. Stand at the Front Door and look to your back left. Here you may want to use a fountain or green, lush plants. Remember to keep your intentions clear.

And at work or your office desk at home if you have one would require something of the same nature. Feng Shui uses a three-legged Frog to help bring in the money and this can be used on something as small as a desk. You can get a money envelope or make one yourself by coloring an envelope RED, infuse it with your intention and put three like coins in them. As always, keep your intentions clear as Feng Shui Principles dictate that our Intentions are 90% of the actual “cure.”

One thing to remember when you are using something moving: when the money does start to come in (and it will), you won’t want it moving right out again. Now is the time to replace a moving object to another area you might like to get moving and put something heavy (be it a rock or a paperweight) to stabilize your finances. You don’t want to keep the money flowing at this point as it will likely flow back out!

Making some simple changes in the way you look at money and the way you treat it and implement some easy changes around your home and business just might turn your finances around! Give it a try and you’ll be surprised what you can create.

The ancient Chinese system of Feng Shui uses the power of focused intention, as well as the mindful placement of objects, to improve our lives. If you would like more abundance for yourself and your family, try these five simple Feng Shui tips.The Wealth/Abundance area is located in the far left corner of your house from the front door.

1. Place or keep any of the following in the Wealth area of your home: banknotes, piggy bank, checkbooks, purse. This deceptively simple act will help you to become more mindful of your money and how you manage it.

2. Use the following colors to enhance the Wealth area: gold, red, purple. These colors have deep and ancient associations with prosperity.

5. Lush green plants do well in the Wealth area, reminding us that nature gives great pleasure and peace. Bamboo is traditional, but any healthy plant will do.
