The Kitchen is the most important part of your
house. The food you eat gives you energy and this food is prepared
in kitchen, so it is important that proper attention is paid here.
Here are some tips for your kitchen.
1
Be ruthless. Throw out items , which haven't been used in a year
and a half. Unused presents and wrong purchases attract stagnant
chi apart from taking up unnecessary space. Just throw throw out
or give away items not used in the last year and a half. Get rid
of all unnecessary: Clutter attracts stagnant chi resulting in harmful
influences in your food. Only have items in the view that are used
regularly and do not get in the way.
2
Keep waste baskets clean and out of sight . Stagnant chi can also
take the form of smell. Bad stale smells are depleting your kitchen
of vibrant healthy sheng chi.
3
Spring clean the c upboards regularly (every 6 or so months); they
should be well organised, uncluttered and easily accessible Also,
fit cupboards and shelves etc with rounded corners to avoid cutting
chi into your body while preparing and cooking your food. Check
out your kitchen for any corners pointing at your while preparing
your meal.
4
Bowls of fresh fruit and flowers are great ways of attracting quality
sheng chi into your kitchen and food. Make sure old fruit and dying
flowers are thrown out immediately.
5
Throw out chipped plates. Chipped crockery attracts stagnant chi.
6
Cork flooring is more Yin in energy enabling you to spend more time
comfortably in the kitchen. Stainless steel and ceramic tiles are
more Yang in nature and can create fast moving chi. This may not
be ideal if you want to spend a lot of time in your kitchen. It
may leave you feeling drained or tired. Wood surfaces are also ideal
for the kitchen.
7
Never keep your stove and sink next to each other; water and fire
never go together . But if it can’t be helped
then put a small plant or pot of herbs, in between, this will weaken
the influence.
8
Empty refrigerator regularly. You'd be surprised what hidden ancient
items you will find. The same applies to the stove, clean thoroughly
every three months. Burn a candle and empty your fridge. Clean with
vanilla essence.
