Feng Shui Office in a Pocket

Deborah Redfern — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 19:03:37 +0000

With portable devices like the tablet PC, iPad and smart phones do we still need a dedicated home office space? A comfortable armchair, a coffee shop, the library - can those be our office? Almost everything we need to work can be carried in our pockets, handbag, or knapsack and used pretty much anywhere, if internet connection isn’t a top priority. And ...Read the Rest

The Autumn Whispering of Trees

Clarissa Harison — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 16:23:56 +0000

“The longest journey is the journey inward.” –Dag Hammarskjold Those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are now experiencing the incredible beauty of Autumn and the time of balance between light and darkness during the Equinox.

Clarissa Harison — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 16:59:50 +0000

by Clarissa Harison, Awen Environments, Inspirational Green Living: Creating Environments that Support Body, Mind Animals always seem to find me, even when I was a child. Feral (wild) cats are amazing to work with because their instincts are primal and yet many yearn for human attention and recognize your good intentions. They can also be the most ...Read the Rest

by Deb Swingholm This year it looks as if my spring cleaning ritual will be a bit more thorough than usual. We have undertaken some major renovations and physical changes in our apartment.

Putting on your (Green) Face

D Redfern — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 01:11:49 +0000

I guess it depends on ...Read the Rest

I usually try to be as green as possible. I recycle, re-use, reduce, compost, and buy chemical free and organic products as much as I can. There are quite a few parts of my life when I am not as green as I could be though. For instance: • I use Charmin toilet paper. It ...Read the Rest

Deb Swingholm — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 15:01:57 +0000

It is human nature to want logical proof that something works. It is also human nature to procrastinate. And, as human beings, one of our best qualities is that we are exceedingly quick to adapt. These traits can often become the challenges we face when it comes to implementing feng shui cures and enhancements… We ...Read the Rest
