Many people claim that the ancient Chinese art of Feng Shui can help bring balance (and even luck) into your life. So, why not try to add some good chi to your home office by introducing elements of Feng Shui? Even if you don’t buy into new age-y treatments, at the very least, it can help you get organized and give your office a fresh new look. Feng Shui is all about creating a bright, open space that incorporates natural elements. Annie B. Bond at Care2 lists ways to bring some positive energy into your home office:
DO sit in the corner farthest from the entrance to the room to have a “command” position.
DO place an aquarium or tabletop fountain in the East, North, or Southeast. A small aquarium with black or blue fish in the North area of your desk or office will activate your business and career success.
DO treat the files in your office with respect. They represent your past, present, and future business.
DO keep the cords to your office equipment well hidden. This eliminates clutter and allows for the free flow of chi.
