Disciplines – Color therapy – Decorating with Colors
Decorating with Colors
When discussing Feng Shui and color, people often think it’s just about selecting colors for their home. However, as you’ve seen so far, this discipline is quite complex. It considers not only the interior spaces but also the exterior ones. This includes the light (or shadows) affecting the home, the type, quantity, and quality of light (i.e., its direction). Additionally, Feng Shui takes into account the external shapes of the surrounding environment and the internal shapes, as well as internal divisions, living functions, empty spaces, and filled areas. Each of these conditions will affect the inhabitants.
Once the analysis and assessment of these factors are complete, color can be used to support and enhance the well-being of the inhabitants through interior design.
Is using Feng Shui and color for decorating already considered a corrective action?
It depends. Usually, it’s the color that captures our attention at a particular moment and becomes the catalyst for the desire to refresh our home.
Our home, as an extension of ourselves, accompanies us through life much like a shell does for a snail.
It’s inevitable that we all change over time. We need to reassess our old, deeply held beliefs, our goals, and our relationships. This is often the moment when clients reach out to me because they want to “repaint their home.” In reality, their soul, their heart, and their body (or all three together) are seeking attention.
A sense of discomfort is felt (manifested externally in the home, through the colors and furnishings), which actually reflects an inner discomfort. Sometimes, the layout of the home itself is no longer suitable. By utilizing color and making other adjustments, I can help you achieve that pressing, persistent, and uncontrollable goal with greater awareness and a stronger desire.
Manage the furnishing with me
This is the perfect time to get in touch with me.
I can help you assess the situation. Together, using color symbolism and traditional Chinese medicine, we will examine which aspects and emotions have already been addressed through your previous choices: your home, its furnishings, their functions, and their arrangements. Subsequently, I will assist you, if you wish, in realizing YOUR DREAM, utilizing both color and my expertise in the field. We will ensure that your home, now understood as an EXTENSION OF YOUR BODY, provides the exact ambiance you need to achieve your goals.
Feng Shui and color in TCM
We know that colors are one of the ways to represent the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). For example, if your dream is to write a book, we should identify the best location and arrangement for your workspace within your home according to Feng Shui, optimizing it for writing. We will do everything necessary to support you, both temporally (by determining the best date to start this new and wonderful endeavor using Ba Zi) and spatially. Once that’s done, it will be up to you to give your best effort, knowing that your home is now supporting and backing you!
