We're all affected by the energy that swirls around us. Have you ever walked into a room or house and felt uncomfortable in there, or felt happy and uplifted? You're sensing the energy in the place. In feng shui we call it 'feeling the chi.'

It’s important to keep your bedroom healthy, as you spend a third of your life in it. Your body is at its most vulnerable during sleep. It’s the time for it to rest, repair and heal, not defend itself from toxic enemies. There can be many reasons for waking up feeling unrefreshed, but you don’t want your bedroom to be one of them.
I've been waiting for my health to take a dive, as my parents' medical history was a cocktail of ill health - cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, osteoporosis, gynae issues and type 2 diabetes. But 25 years on, I'm way past the age when my parents first contracted these health conditions, and I've had no sign of any of them.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed and stressed in this fast-paced world? If so, then taking care of yourself is more important than ever. Self-care is about carving out time and space to prioritise your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. The aim is to recharge and rejuvenate yourself, so you can better handle the challenges that come your way.

What’s the feng shui energy (chi) like inside your car? Healthy, uplifting, cheery, giving you a sense of wellbeing? Or unhealthy, stuck, stale, draining, just awful. How about giving these five tips a go? A chi-change can often be life-changing.
Carbs, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, water and fibre are all essential for health, but they can't nourish us if we don't actually eat or drink them. Meal-skipping is common, but if we don't eat, we can't obtain the nutrients we need. Many people don't eat breakfast, so they start the day with a total lack of nourishment.
Self-care is essential these days. It helps us cope with many challenges we face. One important aspect of caring for ourselves is communicating with others. When we’re cut off from others, we lose out on humanity, togetherness, kindness, support, companionship and more.
Uncertainty is like standing at a crossroads, not knowing which way to go. You get that out-of-control sensation and probably anticipate the worst, whichever route you consider taking. Here are some ideas to help you reduce uncertainty.

Consuming sugar can create a quick rise in energy and mood, but a sharp slump also follows. We then crave more sugar, especially in high-fat foods, and the cycle continues. Our blood absorbs sugar quickly, increasing our blood sugar level and making our pancreas over-produce the hormone insulin to deal with it. It can lead to insulin resistance which is harmful to our body.
