MIRRORS (Part Three)
By Suzanne Metzger
A Personal Note From Suzanne: Gratitude & The Law of Attraction
Whatever you focus your attention and energy on, is what you will create in your life.
With this in mind, during this month of Thanksgiving, I have a challenge for you. Pick one or more whole days (at least 24 hours) and refrain from complaining. Whenever you catch yourself, replace that thought with one of gratitude and see if you don’t feel more positive.
Sounds easy, but trust me, if you’re human you will be tempted to complain. Ordinary people focus on what’s wrong, rather than on their many blessings. By changing your focus, you will change the results in your life. Try it, even for a day, and see what happens.
If you have a problem with this, make a Feng Shui adjustment to your Children’s area. This area relates to communication. It’s also the perfect place to enhance if you choose turning not complaining into a game.
You could place something outrageous like a statue of the Three Wise Monkeys (see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil) or an affirmation in the Children's area. Even though these are not traditional Feng Shui cures, they will send a powerful message to your subconscious.
If you choose to do this, have fun and let me know what happens.
Thankfully yours,
Suzanne

• Mirrors & Clutter - As I mentioned in Part 2, mirrors have the power of attraction and multiplication. In the case of clutter, the space is already chaotic. You definitely don’t want to double that energy. Therefore, remove or cover any mirrors that reflect clutter. This will help bring more clarity to your life and can actually help you in knowing where to start and what to do with the clutter.
• Along the same lines, good views are auspicious. A well-placed mirror can be used to draw in beauty and good energy.
• Always position mirrors so that the heads of all residents and frequent visitors are not cut off while looking at the mirror. Cutting off a person’s head can contribute to tension or headaches. The exception would be tiny mirrors hung to adjust the flow of ch’i.
In Part Two I pointed out that mirrors in children’s rooms that are hung higher than their eye level can cause them to feel that they don’t measure up. This is also true for adults.
• Mirror tiles should be avoided. They scatter and fragment the flow of ch’i in an environment. Also pass on dark or smoky mirrors which reduce the flow of ch’i. An exception might be a loved antique mirror with some grayness or flaws. If you have a piece like this, be sure to clear any predecessor energy and bless it from time to time.
• Whenever your stove or desk is placed in a position where you are unable to see the entrance to the room, place a mirror so that it reflects the doorway.
Many folks ignore this because they feel safe in their own home. However, this remedy is based on a physiological fact. The older part of the brain, called the reptilian brain, stays hyper-vigilant and ready to react whenever your back is exposed or vulnerable. Most people won’t experience an immediate effect, but over a period of time, the influence on the nervous system can be detrimental.
These are just a few more of the uses for mirrors.
More will be mentioned in future newsletters.
Many fortunate blessings!
