Sometimes life goes “sideways” even with the best of plans, using all the knowledge I’ve gleaned through my Feng Shui trainings, and implementing correct protocols from numerous modalities.

The question is: How does one navigate these times? (Hint: I call them BLESSINGS!)

Having a PERFECT FENG SHUI HOME does not stop bad things from happening. (BTW – there is no “perfect” Feng Shui home!) The point is to use your home – knowing through Feng Shui the interaction and interconnection your home has with your health and life – to figure out what the growth, lesson, and opportunity are in the situation.

What are the hidden treasures in the detour your life has taken. Rarely are the “treasures” known or understood until some point in the future. When you can look back.

I’ve had a virtual “Treasure Map of Learning Opportunities” the last 6 months. I’ll share a couple brief ones to give you an idea. It would take numerous blogs to share them all!

First example:

We took our first vacation in years during the summer. We went to a quaint little town I’d heard about and seen in photos. We walked around trying to find a restaurant that would accommodate my allergies. They promised they’d look after me. Two hours later I was having a horrible allergy attack that lasted several days. We ended our trip early. I needed to recover at home.

When we arrived home, we found a toilet had been running the whole time and overflowed. We arrived back just before the water was about to flood the carpet.

From Feng Shui, the area where this happened in the home and the symbolic relation to where my allergic reaction occurred in my body were identical!

Thus, I call my misfortunate allergy attack a BLESSING because it prevented us from having thousands of dollars of damage to our home.

Tomorrow I’ll share another example.
