Simple Ways To Create Good Fengshui



Do you believe in Fengshui?

I absolutely do!​ :)

My interests in Fengshui started in my late teens when I would spend hours at the library reading any Fengshui books that I can find and jot down important notes for self-learning and personal reference.

In the recent years, I got to know a well-known local Fengshui Grand Master and from his teaching, guidance and advanced knowledge, I have a better understanding on the concept and the fundamental of Fengshui that could improve personal luck, home life, relationships, health, career and more...

In Singapore, many famous landmarks in the country, such as Gardens By The Bay, Merlion Park, Marina Bay Sands, Jewel Changi Airport and Fountain of Wealth at Suntec City are tourist attractions, these​ architectural buildings​ are designed with specific Fengshui placements that would bring peace, harmony, wealth and prosperity.​ Even banks, hotels and restaurants all over the world hire professional Fengshui​ practitioners​ to audit the interior and exterior of their properties to generate good business.

                          
               
                   
Many successful business tycoon like, Jack Ma, Li Ka-Shing and famous celebrities like Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Madonna​ believe the power of Fengshui can enhance business wealth, career opportunities, fame and success.

People often asked..."Can Fengshui make you rich?"

In my honest opinion, I don't think Fengshui can make everyone rich. If so, no one will be working today.lol.​ However, Fengshui can help to attract wealth, helpful people, opportunities that can improve your luck, business, career and financial gain etc. I believe you in hard work, perseverance and self-discipline is the key to success and victory, but a little booster of Fengshui doesn't harm either.:)

Here are 5 simple ways to create good Fengshui :

Tip 1 :
Keep the house clean, tidy and bright. Open the windows everyday and let the sunlight in. If the living room is dark, add more lighting to increase positive energy. Clear away clutters, remove all broken objects, rotten plants, damaged furniture and faulty electrical appliances. The front door and walkway should not be obstructed with any bulky items, keep the entrance neat and spacious to​ allow good energy to flow freely.

Tip 2 :
Do NOT keep any medication on the dining table. Taking medicines at the dining table leads to poor health and prolonged sickness. Keep all medication in the cabinet. Place only food items at the dining area.

Tip 3 :
Eating together as a family is a blessing. It builds stronger bonding, happiness, harmony that promote good energy in a household. A home filled with joy and laughter is good Fengshui.

Tip 4 :
Do NOT store anything under the bed. Avoid putting books, toys, old photos or junks underneath, this may cause mental stress, sleepless nights, arguments and poor concentration.​ Clear the bed area to improve sleep quality.

Tip 5 : 
Everything around us, people, things and places have Yin and Yang energy.(Chi) Stay away from negativity. Don't participate in any gossips and nasty acts, as what goes around comes around, it's only a matter of time. Always practice kindness and gratitude. Embrace your moral values. Be filial to your parents, be kind to others, help the needy and spread positive vibes! Good karma attracts good fortune and blessings.

*Bonus Tip*
To increase wealth and money luck, use a long wallet/purse. Black or Brown is recommended.

                   

I use a long purse, it contains my ID, cash, credit cards and driving licence. Do not keep receipts, clinic cards, discount coupons etc. (You can put them in a card case if you like) Change a new wallet if the old one is torn, dirty or discolored. A wallet is a storage of your personal wealth, so get a good one to preserve your finance and income.

Well, some people may feel that Fengshui is just some superstitious beliefs, but the ideology and the practice of Fengshui has a long history over more than 3000 years, since the ancient time till the modern world today.

                    

Fengshui isn't just about placing exquisite lucky ornaments, water fountains, crystal balls and fortune cat etc.. Each direction, colors, numbers, 5 Elements,​ bazi, birth charts, represents different aspects in Fengshui analysis.

                         

(*The Golden Luo Pan is a Fengshui Compass to determine and calculate the precise directions of the premises. Use for homes and​ office.)

Fengshui Facts :

Life isn't a smooth sailing journey, there will be challenges and setbacks along the way.​ Fengshui may improve your life, but keep in mind that it is NOT a magic tool and definitely not the antidotes to solve all the problems.​ Sometimes, we still have to experience some hard lessons to elevate our strength and wisdom to be a better person.

Nothing comes easy in life, we reap what we sow, without hard work and consistent efforts, there is no long-lasting results and rewards.

My principles of rule is, as long as it is not illegal and not hurting anyone, it's OK to practice what you believe and what makes you feel at ease.​ 

Understand that the main objective of Fengshui is to create a good balance environment with positive energy (Chi) that encourage good fortune, happiness, success and prosperity that will improve your quality of life.

2023 is the year of the water Rabbit. I hope it will be better year for all. Here's wishing everyone a happy and a prosperous new year with great opportunities and abundance​ of blessings.​

                   

Have a fun Chinese New Year celebration​ and Gong Xi Fa Cai!​ ๐Ÿงง๐ŸŠ๐ŸŠ

Be A Buddy, NOT A Bully! ๐Ÿ’ช


Bullies...

I often wonder..why do people bully? was it for fun? trying to be cool? or simply just being a jerk! ๐Ÿ˜ 


Anyway, I'm sure many of you have at least encountered a bully at some point in life or know someone who was bullied.. Unfortunately, bullies are everywhere..In schools, office, on the road, internet, public places and even in families sadly...


I recently witnessed a bully case in school that triggered me to blog this topic. Indeed, bullying is a huge social problem globally and it is a major concern for any parents.



Just a brief flashback...I was a bullied teen during high school. Being chubby and nerdy, the bullies in my class would picked on me all the time... Playing pranks on me, making fun of me with nasty name-callings. Whatever!..School wasn't a fun place for me, I hated school! I dragged myself to school everyday, I was an average grade student with good conduct but deep inside...I was counting down to graduation day. I'm so thankful that I survived those nightmares when I'm finally done with school, I was 'freed' at last and I could breathe freely again...


Now I am a mother of 2 young kids..I wouldn't want my kids to suffer the horrible experiences I had in school..No one deserve to be bullied! I wished someone taught me some self-defense so I could protect myself when the bullies attacked me. So...I encourage my son to learn Taekwondo, he is almost 7yo and has earned a Green belt.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š


Sometimes, I regretted being too timid because I was so afraid to challenge the bullies to defend myself and report them. I would just tolerate but feel miserable inside. I felt weak and so little about myself. That is one tough lesson I've learned in life, so Never put up with any bullying, seek help early and talk to someone about your problems. You don't have to suffer this alone in silence.


Do remember.. Silence isn't always golden. When you need to step up, speak up and defend yourself..Do It! Be brave enough to tell the bullies to Stop and Back off! Hiding your fear, your sadness and crying won't ever solve any problem! In fact, that would feed the bullies' ego and encouraged them to continue the bullying. When I read news about children / teenagers who committed suicide, it breaks my heart when young lives are lost in the result of prolonged abuses & bullying.๐Ÿ˜Ÿ


When I started working and learning about life as I grow..I became tougher, smarter, and I am grateful for my mentors who guided me along the way. I learn how to protect myself during danger, crisis and tacky situations, etc.. Through many life experiences and setbacks over the years, from zero to hero.. I am a stronger and wiser person today! A lady with confidence, strength and positive vibes.๐Ÿ˜Š Today, I am NO longer the nerd I was back in school. I remember no one ever noticed me during school days, I was invisible! Hmmm.. But now, I got attention from the public, strangers and I made heads turned..Hahaa! Many of my classmates couldn't recognise me when we met during our school gathering recently...There you go! The story of "The Ugly Duckling" does exist in real life and I am one good living example.๐Ÿ˜˜



Here's a cool song by one of my favorite Singer, G.E.M. Love this song so much and the MV too..I can relate to the song and it's perfect for my blog! Check it out.. It's pretty awesome! Enjoy.. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž




                                              
             Click here ➡️Song lyrics in English #SayNoToBullying


Studies have shown that bullies are loners, insecure, self-centered and attention seekers who are unhappy about life and themselves..Many came from violence, broken families and grew up from bad childhoods.



Whatever the reasons may be.. Any form of bullying is still Wrong! It Is Never Cool To Bully! I've always tell my children..it is ok to be angry at times, but it is NOT ok to bully or hurt someone! There is no sensible or justified reasons to bully anyone! Young or old. Period!



As parents, it is our duty and responsibility to educate our children proper manners, moral values, self-discipline and respect. We should be role models and practise good examples for the kids to learn from. No parents would ever want to see their kids get hurt or being bullied anywhere, so we must teach our children some basic self-defense so they learn to protect themselves when there is danger because anyone could be a target for the bullies!





A physical scar may faded over time but an emotional scar will never be healed completely. Thus, it is hard to fix something that is badly damaged.

Prevention is always better than cure!


Let's remind ourselves and teach our children to practice kindness, compassion and treat everyone with respect always. Share and Pass it on... #SayNoToBullying

The Cyber Generation ๐ŸŒŽ



Last week, I attended an interesting workshop on Cyber Wellness and met Mr Jim Lim, the speaker for the workshop. Personally, I think it is one of the best workshop that I have attended in the recent years. 


Jim is a friendly, humorous and intellectual speaker and his workshop is helpful, informative and engaging. I promise you won't doze off in his 4hrs+ workshop. I now have a better idea to guide my children as they grow into their teens and adulthood in years to come. 

We are in the Cyber Generation and Internet is part of our life..Hence, the trend, the temptations and the contents from the net influenced the mind and the overall well-being of the child when they are exposed to the Internet everyday. It is important for parents to be involved and bond with our children to help them understand about Internet safety and their curiosity as they grow.

I am amazed and inspired by his speech in this workshop. Jim who is also an experienced social worker have met many people / families from different walks of life, he shared many real life stories and his perspectives on Parenting.

We all know that Parenting is not an easy journey because there is No fixed or right formula. There will be tears, heartaches, anxiety but alot of joy along the way and from time to time, we need to experience many trial-and-error to understand what works the best for our children because every child is different and unique in their own ways.

As a parent myself and a mother of two, I am a protective and a strict Mom. However, unlike the majority, I am not one who focus too much on academic and good grades, because I believe life isn't only about having good grades. 

As much as I want my children to have a bright future and be successful in life but I wouldn't want my children to be top scholars but failed in morality, humanity and social skills/EQ. I want my kids to experience their life journey and to overcome the different challenges ahead and if they fall, I want them to learn to get back on their feet and keep moving forward but a stronger and wiser person each time they fall.

With all due respect, I strongly agree that good and proper education is very important for our generation and the human race. Knowledge Is Power! Without a strong educational foundation and support, there wouldn't be doctors, scientists and lawyers today!

Well..I'm not a big fan of books but if I will spent 12 bucks to get this book and to blog about it, it's definitely a great book that I would recommend to my friends and other parents, especially those who have an open and flexible mentality on Parenting.

The world is a crazy and hazard place, with shocking news everyday. Power, Violence, Fame, Fear, Greed, Lust and the list go on..Though we can't stop all the negativeness around the world but we can educate and guide our younger generation into the right path to shape our world a better place.๐ŸŒŽ

Life is an exciting journey and Parenting is our responsibility! Teach our young the right and humane way of life, to build a better future for mankind.

For love, compassion and peace!❤

Friends or Foes? ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜ˆ





As some of you already know that I’m a Blogger, many of you have visited my website and read my blogs but I keep a low profile for privacy and security reasons.

I have been blogging for a few years now, I enjoy writing and expressing myself. I blog about Life, Family, Parenting, Motherhood, Social Matters and random stuff. I made some really cool friends on the net but I also met many cyber bullies, keyboard warriors, and trolls in some active group chats and forums etc..


Hence, we can never understand their weird notions and their intentions. As a person who values integrity and true friendships, I will share some advise to warn people to be careful with the circles of ‘friends’ around them.

I have compiled some reliable information into a Checklist below. These are important rules to help you understand if you are dealing with a Friend or a Foe?๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜ˆ

*** KEEP IN MIND ***


Rule #1 : Do NOT share too much personal information with casual 'friends',  you never know if they may betray you or expose your secrets with others and twist the story around for everyone to condemn you.


Rule #2 : Trust no one! Don’t be too trusting just yet. Set your boundaries and your comfort zone, if they are your real friends, you will know it sooner. Observe them.


Rule #3 : Beware of those who calls you Bro, Sis, Babe, Hun etc.. Not everyone who smiles at you are real friends. Keep in mind that even Salt look like Sugar!


Rule #4 : People change over the years, you can't expect the friends whom you haven't seen for a decade are the same nerds during school days. Someone who used to be kind and gentle could possibly turn out to be a monster or your worst enemies. Friends come and go, only the true ones stick around to share your happiness and sadness.


Rule #5 : Stay away from fake friends, if those who intend to harm you, badmouth and sabotage you..Hey! these aren’t genuine friends at all. Delete them, eliminate them, block them and strike off their contacts. Trust me, you don’t need them in your life!


Rule #6 : Choose your friends wisely. Stay with friends who are sincere, honest, supportive and they make you feel comfortable and who will never leave you out.


Rule #7 : Do NOT feed cyber bullies!!! Bullies are loners, self-centered and they are Never cool! The more you befriend with the bullies, the more negative vibes and troubles you will attract. Respect everyone equally, no one is superior than the others, stop sucking up and acting like clowns!


Rule #8 : Do NOT follow and believe everything blindly! Think and observe. A coin have 2 sides, listen and understand both sides of the stories before you act or judge anything.


I hope this Checklist can be a guide for people who have doubts about the friends around them. Indeed, everyone need friends but be very careful who you trust and hang out with because we are living in a complicated world surrounded by both "Angels" and "Devils" in our daily lives.

Share and Repost if you think this blog is helpful. Peace! ๐Ÿ˜Ž✌

The Philosophy Of Life...๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Ž


Had a long chat with my mentor the other day and here are some great advise about life for those who read my blogs.:)

1) Don't live with guilt and regrets. What is gone, will never return. Not everything comes with a second chance.

2) Say what you feel, follow your heart and always do the RIGHT things. A Conscience mind has nothing to fear. 

3) To seek Peace, stay away from Toxic people. Negativeness is contagious. Understand that some people will never change or admit their mistakes..they shall deal with their own consequences eventually. 

4) Do Good Reap Good. Do Evil Reap Evil. A beautiful heart is a beautiful soul. Life will not get better when you steal, cheat or rob. When it's not yours, it never will be.The possession is only temporary.

5) What the parents do, will effect the children. What the children do, will effect the parents.

6) Always be thankful for what you have in life. More doesn't always means good. Less is More.

7) Be nice & kind to your family. Love and respect your spouse. Children are gifts and blessings from above. They deserve a chance to live and to be loved. Abortion/Killing is still wrong. Seek forgiveness for the wrongdoings.

8) Never take anything/anyone for granted. Nothing truly lasts forever. Treat others the same way you want to be treated. Always stay positive and good vibes shall follows.

Life can be simple and beautiful. Happinese is rich and pure. Greed, Insecurity, Jealousy and Obsession will clutters your mind, body and soul. Focus on the Right track, be your own Compass and you'll always find the right direction to the destinations! ;)

Namaste! :)
