News You Can UseSeptember2011
Greetings!

   

DianaGarberThank you for welcoming us to your inbox. This month's issue of Intuitive Concepts' News You Can Use honors school days and affected parents and students. Day care to college, it's homework, time management, and multi-tasking. Now, more than ever, it is time to think about balance. Yin (rest and relaxation) and yang (activity) need to compliment each other in equal measure  ... working hard needs to be offset by playing hard. This is a dress rehearsal for the rest of your life! 

 

This issue of News You Can Use offers articles, tips, and much more. There are many ideas and resources to help you, but most of all remember us. We specialize in improving quality of life for families and individuals, and helping businesses be more successful. Whether you want more focus, better results, improved health, or better relationships (to name a few) ... we can help. Call us today to schedule your free Feng Shui strategy session.  
 
May you be exceedingly, generously, and joyfully blessed,
Diana Garber & Your Intuitive Concepts Family
Feng Shui and Children
By Diana Garber 
 

As Featured in the Feng Shui Society(UK) Newsletter


School is starting for the year so let's explore Feng Shui and children. There's a lot that's involved in this topic, so today I'll begin by discussing yin and yang within their environment.

 

There's no question our environment influences us. Our body reacts with all its senses (sight, smell, touch, sound, etc.). One study that was done placed blind children in a red room. Their heart rate increased and they became agitated. When they were moved to a blue room, they returned to normal; thus, why we don't recommend much red (pure yang) in schools, hospitals or wellness centers. However, introduce yin's influence (muted colors), and pink or lavender (derivatives of red) can be peaceful.

Children and Chores
By Diana Garber

Allow me first to begin by saying that paying your child an allowance to perform
chores also establishes a pattern. I believe that's an area that we (and I include myself here) have set the stage for instant gratification. CEOs have been queried regarding the new work force. One of their complaints is that our youth not only want premium starting wages, but a bonus for showing up for work. We can teach our children that their contribution is part of the whole-meaning, as a household member they need to help maintain the household. As a human on this planet, we need to help maintain it. It goes without saying that some adults could learn this lesson too, but I digress. Now, allowances may not apply to teens, as they need to learn money management. Parents (and schools) would do well to teach teens how to save, budget, spend, and invest. Help them learn lessons that we didn't (thus why credit card debt is so high).

Tip of the Month

 

Starting 9/8/11, a 1 water month takes place in a 7 soft metal year. Water corrodes metal so this is known as a dominating relationship. Water implies movement so this means you may not be home often. It can also cause someone to wander from a committed relationship. The 1:7 combination can also affect depression, cause things to be less stable, and affect finances. So plan and be proactive. On the up side, the combination can bring about new beginnings and improve your reputation (hopefully not starting over due to an ended relationship that results in building a name as a philanderer).

 

According to the cycle of the 12 Chinese astrology signs, this month Rabbit people are challenged. Be conservative this month and don't initiate anything new. My advice to you is do something wise with the spike in money luck this month.

 

All of 2011 (through 2/4/12) is challenging for Roosters since the Rooster is the Rabbit's opposite. Also, dragons are challenged because next to the Rooster, the Dragon is the next-worst challenged Chinese astrology sign. Roosters and Dragons would do well to consider a Feng Shui consult!

Here's what people have recently said about our consults:

  • "Very encompassing -- extremely organized and thorough."
  • "This definitely increases my confidence about my business' approach for the year."
  • "It's so much information and I don't pretend to understand it all. Still, I appreciate how much you give us. I love how you prioritize what needs to be done. It sure helps because otherwise I wouldn't know where to start. Thanks, Diana!"
  • "Honestly, I'm impressed with how in-depth you are. You go way beyond what others do, and I know from experience."
  • "You provide whatever help we need. Phenomenal, definitely above and beyond!"
  • "There you go again - the energy you spoke of for the SE of my business was right on target -- was already happening. I implemented the remedy a week ago and already experienced a difference. I still don't understand how this works - but it does."

countertopsales"Diana Garber of Intuitive Concepts analyzed my company's new location last summer when we were moving in. The energy showed theft, auto accidents, and death. Business was already suffering and staff issues were also a problem. The move and business concerns overshadowed Feng Shui, so I didn't get around to implementing remedies. Everything Diana said came true...

..

.Take it from me, Feng Shui should be at the top of your to-do list.  It sets the tone for everything else.  It is a strategy/master-planning tool!  Don't put it off.  Feng Shui makes life easier and business more successful.

 

Diana is now working on our home, and it's amazing how on target the analysis is there too. Family health issues, relationship dynamics, drains on motivation - it's all there. Things we were putting off or didn't get finished, we're now enthused about -- and knowing our Feng Shui action plan gives us confidence in our choices." Phillip Holbrook - Countertop Sales

Tips to Live Consciously  

 

 

Say "No" to bottled water, which is tap water at 1000% the price.  Take a look at Tappedthemovie.com.  

 

"Is access to clean drinking water a basic human right, or a commodity that should be bought and sold like any other article of commerce?  Stephanie Soechtig's debut feature is an unflinching examination of the big business of bottled water." - from the home page of tappedthemovie.com

Planning a holiday vacation? Going off to college next year? Considering relocating to a new city? Or, maybe you're daydreaming about life in Paris?

 

  This report helps you to discover the pluses and minuses of you in a specific city. It is based on the common, instinctive idea that a person has different chances, luck, experiences, or options in different locations.  

 

For example, your energy isn't the same in New York City as in San Francisco. This report looks at the planet's relationships to you in the city you request.
