Dear
CF, One of the greatest
gifts in understanding conscious design and feng shui is the connection we have
with our environment. We can truly support our wishes and dreams by working
from the "outside in."
Here
are some suggestions:
|
| | |
 |
Lavender, both the color and the
scent can reduce cravings. Lavender is often used to assist people battling alcohol
addiction and can work miracles with sugar cravings. One of our clients painted
her kitchen lavender and lost 40 pounds. The essential oil of lavender can be
diffused in the home to reduce hunger and invite calm. |
| | |
 | Shape
also has a large impact on us and is often overlooked as a strategy. A square
shaped dish will contain the appetite. The color blue also reduces hunger and
appetite, so we recommend using a blue colored plate for meals. |
| | |
 | Water
is vital to weight loss. Using a red crystal glass for drinking will stimulate
digestion and support the base chakra in survival and self esteem. Red glasses
for weight loss were recommended back in the 1970s by astrology guru Linda Goodman
in her book Star Signs. She also recommended eating red colored foods to stimulate
digestion. |
| | |
 | Check
your room to see what symbols and messages you have around your kitchen and dining
room. One friend that was working on her weight loss goals had a kitchen filled
with country cows. Unless we choose to look like a cow, we may want to find images
that are slim, streamlined, moving, joyful, and healthy. |

Good
luck from all of us at the Conscious Design Magazine. Renae Jensen
