It is hard not to notice that the environment in a monastery is orderly and uncluttered. Can you even imagine a monastery as a place of chaos and clutter?

A monastery would be a model of an organized home!

Declutter sessions in the monastery are unheard of!

Monks follow strict standardized routines for daily life and are not allowed to have attachments to material things. Monasteries would be an extreme example of achieving control over personal belongings and stuff.

There is no place for clutter in a monastery because the path to peace and enlightenment would be obstructed by the bad energy. Those who seek spiritual enlightenment have always known that the presence of clutter and the emotional burden of having to care for it creates barriers to spiritual development. Monasteries and sanctuaries devoted to spiritual development are places of few material distractions and energetic obstructions.

Through the ages Feng Shui masters and monks have recognized that clutter and disorder in your environment creates an energetic burden. Clutter blocks your progress towards attainment of higher order emotional and spiritual energies.

Feng Shui Tips to Improve the Energy in Your Organized Home

• Avoid mirrors directly opposite the main entrance as it pushes energy away from the house.
• Avoid mirrors opposite the bed. It invites a third party into the relationship.
• Make sure energy can flow around the bed...that includes under the bed! This is especially important for children.
• Make sure there are no obstacles when you enter a room as this will obstruct the flow of energy (chi) through the room.
• Create a meandering path to the front door. If you have a straight path then put plant pots along the walkway to encourage the chi energy to meander on its way to the house.
• Keep stairs clear and unobstructed as this is favourable to the flow of chi through the house.
• Create energy that is calming and serene by keeping your bedroom clean and orderly.
