A 10 Year Anniversary: From Holiday Gifts to a Successful Wellness Brand

Ten years ago this month, my then seven year old daughter and I decided to make some holiday gifts for friends and family. We wanted our gifts to be made with our own hands and we wanted to personalize them for each recipient. It felt like a new exploration into a world of delightful scents and ingredients that yielded useful and beautiful gifts. It made us happy. After researching and playing around with a variety of materials from the best ways of blending notes of essential oils for body scrubs to which wick size to use for candles, we made gifts that garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback. My daughter and I felt like we did alright that year with our gift giving. I was ready to leave it at that, but my husband kept insisting I take it further and start selling these items online. There was pushback and excuses on my end before I eventually relented. My years long journey into research and formulations began.

Mighty Rituals To Ring in The New Year

When you usher in a new year, it is the most POWERFUL time to engage in small, but meaningful rituals with a big return on value. These rites of passage can be anything from mindfully cleaning surfaces in your home as a purifying ceremony for atonement of the past, to lighting incense for intention setting for the future. Dovetailing these mindful actions to the end-of-year cycle and to the start of a brand new one deepens the layer of effectiveness.

What does MIND BODY SPIRIT SPACE really mean?

Most people are familiar with the term Mind, Body, Spirit. Twenty years ago, I coined the term Mind, Body, Spirit, Space because as a holistic feng shui consultant, I found that your environment is where all aspects of Mind, Body and Spirit come together. It was the missing link in concepts of “everything is connected,” improving your wellbeing, holistic spirituality and addressing all the parts of ourselves that make the whole. 

When I teach holistic Feng Shui in my online certification classes, or when I am with a client for a consultation, I always make suggestions that are based on the Mind portion – which is the psychology of how we dwell and your subconscious, the Body, which is all things physical, furniture placement, color, design, organization and structural issues . Spirit, which is the atmosphere, the energy, chi and feng shui. Space is where it resides, where it all components come together.   I can clearly connect the dots of Mind, Body and Spirit in your Space.  I found that only when all four components are addressed, can an effective, long lasting transformation really happen.

The Holistic Home School of Feng Shui Online Certification in 2021!

In July 2019 I launched my own school of Feng Shui based in the style I’ve developed over the last two decades and also what my book is based on, The Holistic Home: Feng Shui for Mind, Body, Spirit, and Space. The all inclusive retreat in upstate New York was a huge success and the intention was that I would offer this retreat once a year.  Before the next in-person round could occur the following year,  COVID happened and I took the course online. This past Fall I had the honor of teaching 10 incredible women this course for seven weeks. Now, when Tuesday night comes around, I find myself missing them all. I learned that there are definitely advantages to having this course via zoom. It allows for an intensive load of curriculum to digest and be applied in real world applications much easier. This January 2021 I am so excited to be offering this online certification course once more.
