On a recent Feng Shui Consultation on Long Island I was asked a question by my clients that I have been asked over and over in the past....Most people that call me in for a consultation are particularly sensitive to ENERGY. The FEEL it and it causes great distress. They feel it in their co-workers, their "friends" and even their own family.
This Feng Shui Consultation was in the lovely town of Huntington Long Island New York where the couple has purchased a lovely, small home that they adored. They had brought the furniture and accessories from their previous home and had decided for now to keep it while eventually incorporating new pieces when they could afford it.
I liked the way they had temporarily set it up...it allowed a good flow of Energy into the space, kept their health area clear and we discussed what the home WAS lacking which were the elements. We also discussed the types of furniture she should look for when she is able to afford new items. She specifically asked me about a glass table and in her particular space, in my opinion, a round glass table would give the room a more open and airy feeling then the heavy furniture they currently owned.
Some of her questions were so specific, I finally had to ask WHY she was asking them. She then told me that her family was extremely critical of the way she had placed her furniture---which was just the beginning. Her family was actually very critical of EVERYTHING, she said, from her job to her marriage. It was causing her such emotional unhappiness, I asked her to back off a bit from them.
It isn't easy to tell my clients this, particularly when it's family but sensitive people can become PHYSICALLY sick when they are surrounded by negative energy...and nothing is more important then your health. We enhanced her CAREER area to help her find a different position as well to get her out of her job and into a better atmosphere.
It's sad to say that some people are going to be critical of you no matter WHAT you do. And it seems to become worse when they see they can have quite an effect on you. You must take your life and control back from these people. Unfortunately, with family is can be more difficult but not impossible. You are simply less available. After a while, you may notice a shift-they are so happy when they finally DO see you, they stop criticizing and are just happy to have you around.
If any of you are experiencing these feelings from others, take a well needed step back. Don't fall into the ‘guilt' people are happy to throw our way. Your INACTION, in this case, becomes ACTION and gives you your power back, something you never want to lose.
