OPEN PLAN OFFICES
Open plan offices have been considered outdated from many years now.
Open plan offices are not functional because they create chaotic conditions. You cannot find your own personal space anywhere in order to work unobstructed, especially if you have to speak to on the telephone with clients, collaborators or providers. One obstructs the other one’s work, particularly if you sit close to one another.
You can separate open plans by placing screens or plants between desks.
MESS IN A HOME MEANS BAD LUCΚ!
We create our own luck, mostly, ourselves.
Harmony is a basic prerequisite for having “the lucky star”.
Ιf your home is in a mess, this creates disharmony and means disorder in your life. Untidiness is one of the ten deadly sins of BADLY-BEING! Η ακαταστασία είναι ένα από τα δέκα θανάσιμα αμαρτήματα του ΔΥΣ ΖΗΝ!
It emits energy that brings inexplicable obstacles and setbacks. It is as if you are putting barriers in your life’s path
Therefore, make sure that there is order everywhere: in all rooms, the bathroom, the toilet, the storage room in order to have good luck!
HEALTHY HOMES, HEALTHY WORKPLACES, HEALTHY PEOPLE
See to it that, in your home or workplace, there is Order, Harmony and Healthy Energy. Homes and workplaces suffer from the extremely harmful for our health Geopathic Stress, which is everywhere nowadays, and you suffer along with them. Harmony of Space (Hellenic Feng Shui) has the effective solution: The device ALPHA DYNAMICS, described in section “Shop.”: Το μηχάνημα ALPHA DYNAMICS, το οποίο περιγράφεται στην ενότητα «Shop».
A New Start with the Beginning of the New Year
Τhe beginning of the New Year is the right time for rebuilding your life, if you aim a it, and make a new constructive start.
Για ΕυημερίαFor Prosperity: Get rid of clutter. Throw away all the useless things you may have. Useless things are not only broken or damaged ones, but everything we no longer use. They retain valuable energy and create stagnation. Throw away anything that is useless and let the new energy come into your home, your workplace and your life!
For New Perspectives: Think of your dreams, your aims and desires and starτ something new. Σκεφθείτε τα όνειρά σας, τους στόχους σας και τις επιθυμίες σας και ξεκινήστε κάτι νέο.
Whatever you can do, or dream of doing, just do it. Boldness holds genius, strength and magic within it. Begin now!
Goethe
And as a Greek saying goes: “luck helps the bold!”
Be bold and start something new!
NATURE IN THE WORKPLACE
It is wrong for an office or any other workplace to be strictly technological. It is boring, tiring and creates tension and stress. Bring Mother Nature to your workplace and its beneficial blessed effect by placing plants, which create high energy and regenerate your work environment, so that you can be truly effective, without tension and stress.
The money tree and the fern protect against electromagnetic pollution. They can be placed near computers and printers.
Plants are the best natural ionizers and will provide you with the benefits of the revitalization of the workplace and yourself.
THE GARDEN ON MY BALCONY
Our balcony shows the quality of energy in our home. A balcony or veranda without any greenery, indicates that there is no contact with Mother Nature, that there is a lack of revitalizing energy, which is also missing from people’s lives. Bring Nature to your balcony or veranda, in order to have its beneficial, blessed effect even in your suffocating urban environment. In a large balcony or veranda, you can even place fruit trees or other species, and have a wonderful garden.
Even a tiny balcony can be turned into a garden with beautiful plants. It will create a totally different energy in your home and a sense of beauty, harmony and joy. It will help you rest and will revitalize you.
Trees and plants deliver great benefits: a healthy, with vital energy, soothing environment.
LIVING-SITTING ROOM
This area must be particularly bright and have joyful colors. Τhe couch should be placed against the wall, so that the backs of those sitting on it are covered.
Furniture should be arranged so that you can see the door and do not have to turn your head in order to see what is happening around you.
PROTECTION EXERCISE FOR THE HOME
Visualize a golden star above your home, which emits rays and bathes it in the bright light of the Cosmic Energy, which it carries, creating a protective shield around it.
The infinite power of Cosmic Light will protect your home in an invisible way. Think of just a small example of the power of light: A House is in the middle of darkness.
You turn on only one light and open the windows. What do you think that will happen? Will darkness penetrate the house or will light/spread out dispelling darkness?
SELF-PROTECTION EXERCISE
We humans have a HIGHER SELF, a DIVINE SELF. The exercise will help you harmonize with your HIGHER SELF the DIVINE WISDOM in your inner world..
In the era, in which we live, we are exposed to many negative influences, which drain our energy, if we do not protect ourselves properly, and can create unpleasant psychological situations. The self-protection exercise will help you fortify yourself.
Every night, before you go to sleep, and every morning, before you get up, visualize the semi-precious stone quartz, a big one, in the form of a pyramid, and go into it. Close your eyes, relax and let yourself be enveloped in the warmth of its protection. Then open them and feel how protected you are. Nothing and nobody can influence you negatively, nor come close to you, as the quartz has the quality to safeguard against harmful energy. The pyramid is also particularly protective, it draws energy from the Universe. The combination of the two is very powerful. When you feel adequately protected, end the exercise. The visualization need not take long. Five minutes suffice.
You can visualize that you are in the quartz by the sea or in the mountains, wherever you like best.
If you do this daily, consequently, you will create a shield around you, and after a short period, you will sense the difference. You will no longer feel vulnerable, and the vital energy, which you will accumulate around you, will help you strengthen your self-confidence and free yourself from stress, anxiety and pessimism.
Begin the harmonization with your HIGHER, DIVINE SELF now!
LIVING/SITTING ROOM
The living/sitting room is the place where we communicate with our family and friends and ought to serve this purpose. It is a mistake to be a playroom with toys scattered everywhere.
In the living/sitting room there should be the appropriate ambience for the couple’s communication, and if children play continually there, the couple may not have the romanticism they need in order to revive their love. The children can play in their room.
CHILDREN’S BEDROOMS
Children’s bedrooms should be designed in such aw ay as to aid the children’s spiritual and physical development There should be harmony so that children can sleep well and do not become nervous. Clear your child’s bedroom of excess objects and create an atmosphere which suits your child’s personality. Children’s bedrooms should be designed in such aw ay as to aid the children’s spiritual and physical development There should be harmony so that children can sleep well and do not become nervous. Clear your child’s bedroom of excess objects and create an atmosphere which suits your child’s personality.
THE BATHROOM
The bathroom should be bright and spacious and in an excellent conditiion so that it invites you for your daily self-care routine. Humidity, cracks in he walls or the basin, broken tiles, will repel you create the feeling of sloppiness.
PLANTS
Dried plants accumulate a lot of stagnant energy, and using them prevents beneficial energy from circulating throughout the various areas of the home.
OPEN PLANS
Open plans are not functional because their role is not clearly defined and create a confused perception of space, and you cannot find anywhere your personal place.
It is good to have a hall, even if it is rudimentary, so that it functions as a filter. It will give you some initial relaxation before you go to the rest of the home.
You can place a screen or a carpet, even a small one, horizontally across the door in order to separate optically the entrance from the other areas.
When you are angry it is better not to eat and be hungry. Eat sometime later.
In the all three above cases, instead of having the beneficial driving force of nutrition, you fill up your system with toxins!
Give food the value it deserves.
The red color in the dining room stimulates appetite, and orange facilitates digestion. However, both should not be used in excess, as too much of either of them causes stress..
Eating time is sacred. Τtherefore, while you are eating see to it that you observe the following:
Do not watch television, particularly violent scenes, which create very negative harmful feelings.
Avoid unpleasant discussions and quarrels. They upset your stomach and digestion.
Applying Harmony of Space (Hellenic Feng Shui) brings good luck, which begins according to what we see - the visual stimuli - every time we enter into our home.
In order to have beneficial visual stimuli avoid:
Damaged doors.
Cracked windows.
Aggressive constructions with pointed protrusions. They create a sense of threat.
Plants with hard and pointed leaves and bins near the door.
A neglected and dark entrance.
Not using the main entrance, “the mouth of the home and energy”, and using only the back door. It reduces self confidence,
Tips for Your Vacation
How do you imagine your vacation to be? Vacation means “a period of time away from every day work.” But for most people today “vacation” has become a very strenuous period of their time because they do not plan it so that they can really relax and be free of tension and stress, Today the question is how you can have successful vacation!”
Two very important factors are the following:
- Choose the appropriate place according to your needs. It may not be the exotic resort in the other end of the globe in the seductive brochure of a travel agency. You may need something totally different. It may not even be far from your home. It is perhaps practically round the corner and you will not have to spend a lot of money in order to rest and relax, Sometimes, doing nothing in a small quiet place in the country, in your own area, away from crowded beaches and loud discotheques, can be the best recreation.
- If you plan to go with friends or acquaintances be certain that you have chosen the right ones. Do not go just with anybody in order to have company. It is better to go alone than feel miserable “in company.” In this case, it is possible to meet other people who have thought in the same way, and find yourself in the right environment quite unexpectedly.
Think of your true needs, be honest to yourself, plan making sure that you know what you want for true, rewarding vacation AND GO!
In order to be successful and happy you need high energy. Just as there should be no clutter in your space, at home or at work, there should be no clutter in your inner world.
In order that a couple’s love’s interest does not decline, the entire home should exude a love and sensuous ambiance. See to it that there is tidiness and harmony in every room, and that you have romantic depictions, which can also be beautiful landscapes and seascapes.
The beauty of Nature sends out romanticism and sensuousness. Beautiful indirect lighting. creates an additionally soothing atmosphere. Avoid glaring lights. Take care of yourself, of zour appearance; do not wear sloppy clothes at home. You can burn natural sensuous essential oils Their lovely smell will contribute to creating such an ambience.
LIVING/SITTING ROOM
The living/sitting room is the room of communication with our family, friends and acquaintances, and ought to serve this purpose. It is a mistake to be a playground with toys spread all over the place.
In the living/sitting room there should be the atmosphere of communication between the couple, and if the children play there continuously, there may not be the ambiance of romanticism, which they need in order to refresh their love. The children can play in their rooms.
CONSULTATION FOR BUYING AN APARTMENT
A client of mine, an architect, who had experienced very positive changes after a consultation that I had conducted in his office, asked me to conduct another consultation in his home in Athens for an urgent case.
He had sold the apartment, where he was living, and had to buy a new one, within one month, because he had made a contract before looking for another flat.
He was a bachelor and lived with his elderly mother, and as he told me: ‘If I don’t find an apartment within a month, I can go to a hotel for some time, but it is not appropriate for my mother’.
As the time was very short, and he understood it, certain things had to be done at once.
The most important thing was to specify exactly where he wanted to find another apartment, because energy follows our intentions, and what we ask for must be very precise. It was good that he knew already precisely where he wanted to go.
Among other advice which I gave him, I told him that it was very important to have even one wall painted immediately, that was very easy to do, he could paint it himself. By painting even one wall, at the entrance, which corresponded to Life’s Path, it would revitalize the area with new energy, for new perspectives. Ηe needed not change the colour. This would also positively affect his psychological world, giving him a new, beneficial impetus. I also did Space Clearing in order to free the apartment of old, harmful energy and create new, beneficial vibrations.
A month later he telephoned me and told me that he had found an apartment exactly where he wanted, with view of the Acropolis and the beautiful Lycabettus Hill!
If you apply Hellenic Feng Shui-the Art of EF ZIN (WELL-BEING), which means physical, psychological, emotional, spiritual, financial robustness, you cannot escape from EF ZIN!
TESTIMONIALS
‘After twelve years my business is exactly as I want it to be. I also had a consultation in the home where I was living, as well as for the house that I was having built at the time. My wife was thrilled with the new plan of the house. We are both proud of having asked Eleni to conduct the Hellenic feng shui consultations’.
John Peterson, Peterson Bros., United Kingdom
‘We were nearly ruined. We had invested a lot of money in the apartment house we were building, but we could not sell a single apartment. The buyers would sign the preliminary contract, pay the deposit and, just before the contract was signed, they would withdraw, asking for the deposit back.
A week after the consultation with Mrs. Kairi, the first apartment was sold and, in a short time, all the others. We both had Hellenic feng shui consultations conducted in our offices and our homes. We were fortunate to have made the introduction to Eleni Kairi’.
Yiannis and Andreas Economou, architects, Athens, Greece.
This case of the architects was reported in the FINANCIAL TIMES, in a feature on feng shιi.
Our Inner World Determines Our Lives
Our inner world and our psychological make-up, play the greatest role in improving the quality of our lives.
The external environment can be amended in order to influence positively our inner space. For this reason, the results of the practice of Harmony of Space (Hellenic feng shui) are so impressive, because they do not only change our homes and work environments, so that w can identify ourselves with them; further, instead of using a compass, we become the compass, we are the instrument that determines our own transformation for the better, according to our personal needs and personality, in order to achieve our aims and materialise our dreams.
It does not matter how old you are - age is only a matter of documentation – and is never too late!
THE COMPUTER
Ensure that it is in the right position.
- It must not be in front of or next to windows, from where harmful reflections for the eyesight are created.
- The back of the computer must not be opposite other colleagues. The most harmful radiation is emitted from the back of computers, no matter how advanced technologically they may be.
LIGHTING
Special care is needed because correct lighting plays a major role.
The best lighting, apart from natural lighting, is the indirect one. It must be adequate, in all areas of the office, and pleasant. It is a very important factor for everyone’s performance and for creating a good work atmosphere.
See to it that there is always also adequate natural lighting.
The Profitable Business
Good constructive work is a fundamental chapter of the art of life and you must give it proper importance and value.
Good constructive work is a fundamental chapter of the art of life and you must give it proper importance and value.
The profitable business is the one with a pleasant friendly work atmosphere, where everyone’s work is a welcome daily activity. In order to create it you need the corresponding energy, which is of primary importance for a robust enterprise and is the basis for your success and prosperity.
Work environments shape everybody’s personality, of the personnel and the managers, and nourish your potential. The foundation of your business is you and the people working for you, and in order to be solid, everybody must feel comfortable in your workplace and be harmoniously identified with it.
The World Is as We Think of It
The world is as we think of it. and this world is created by our environment, which carves our psychological make-up and shapes our personality.
Harmony of Space (Hellenic feng shui) and quantum physics speak the same language: Energy. Ενέργεια.
Nowadays, electromagnetic pollution, noise pollution, synthetic construction materials and aggressively shaped buildings, things which create artificial vibrations, distort the natural vibrations of the Earth and the human brain and cause tension, serious illnesses, as well as aggression and egoism.
Harmony of Space reconciles and harmonise us again with our environment, co-ordinates us with the beneficial vibrations and enables us to pump energy out of our physical beneficial potential which all around us. Everything is energy, as it is known in quantum physics, and when we know how to use it, to our benefit, we have good health, luck, prosperity and a good relationship with our fellow humans. Because for whatever we want to achieve, from the biggest to the smallest, we need high energy of good quality, which we must ensure that is present in the places where we live and work.
Harmony of Space aims to maximise the vitality and performance of everyone separately.
YOUR HOME IS THE MIRROR OF YOUR LIFE
Happiness and success are no coincidence. We create them.
People are looking for happiness and success. How do we achieve it?
In order to be happy and successful we need an environment in which these invaluable assets for a good life are reflected. Your home must express what you want to achieve and the way in which you want to live and suits you.
Have a look at your home and think about it: How is it? Is it happy and does it reflect optimism? Your home must be designed in such a way that happiness and success dwell there, in order that you also attract them into your life.
How is the furniture, the colours and the overall décor?
If you have bulky furniture in a small place, your home is suffocating, it is suffering from blocked energy and you are suffocating too, as well as the possibilities for achieving your aims and realize your dreams. If you have too much furniture and too many things, no matter how large you home may be, the result will be the same.
Colours have their own wave length and it is extremely important how we use them. In a home with neutral and dull colours, there is not the energy of creativity, the vibrations are very low and do not help you to go through life dynamically.
In order to be dynamic and effective, you need cheerful warm colours. They give vitality and create high energy.
What do the paintings that you have depict? Symbolism is particularly important as it is registered in our inner world. Do they show something cheerful, or something melancholic, dull, or abstract? They must send out optimism, happiness and show something concrete so that you can focus on your aims. For example, a blossoming meadow expresses optimism and shows the limitless creation of Mother Nature. A seascape shows the vastness of the endless sea. Both symbolisms nourish you with the energy of creation and great possibilities.
For everything we want to achieve, from the biggest to the smallest, we need high energy. It is the energy which the happy cheerful optimistic home offers.
When there is high beneficial energy in your business and there is a friendly pleasant work atmosphere, it is directly reflected in your finances, as both the personnel and yourself, will be able to be steadily highly effective and promote your product or the services you offer successfully.
Besides, the customers, in your friendly hospitable work environment will be attended to by employees whose behaviour will show that they love their work and are interested both in attending them properly and in the business itself.
This will ensure a steady clientele.
THE POWER OF INTENTION
You can achieve anything provided you want to!
Intention is the most important thing for realizing our aims and achieving Happiness and Success, true WELL-BEING. Energy follows our INTENTION!
Harmony of Space - Hellenic feng shui - is the priceless tool which helps us to change, in all areas, for the better and control our life. You can achieve anything provided you want to.
There are people are afraid of change, When they say that they wish the change, they do not want, in fact, things to change even if they have a very unpleasant life. We say in Greek that “I cannot” means “I do not want .to”! Why should they be afraid of change even though it will be for the better?
In order to apply Hellenic feng shui correctly and successfully, you must have the INTENTION for the beneficial change to happen and open the door to TRANSFORMATION. Because Hellenic feng shui is TRANSFORMATION.
It enables you to chart your life’s course as you want and suits you.
If your INTENTION is to apply the Art of Hellenic feng shui correctly and make it a way of life, you cannot “avoid” WELL-BEING !
PLANTS IN OUR LIFE
Create Beneficial Energy with Plants
Tα φυτά παίζουν μεγάλο ρόλο στην ζωή μας, γι’ αυτό τα χρησιμοποιούμε στην Αρμονία τού Χωρου – την Τέχνη του ΕΥ ΖΗΝ για την βελτίωση της ατμόσφαιρας τoυ χώρου.
Decorating with plants harmonises the exterior and the interior environment. Besides, the green colour of plants and trees is the colour of growth.
In recent years our environment and life conditions have changed dramatically, and as a result, people spend most of their time at home, at work or on the move, far from areas with trees and plants, which offer calmness, tranquillity and rest.
Modern insulation materials and the excessive use of air conditioning in homes and work environments have greatly reduced air renewal in today’s constructions with disastrous results for people’s health. They breathe the same air again and again.
Living plants and flowers is a wonderful way in order to have a favourable flow of energy. Plants are natural ionisers.
The size and number of plants we use should be proportionate to our space. Do not overdo it, always choose the appropriate ones for the room you have.
Dry or plastic plants and flowers should not be used, because they are dead and accumulate stagnant energy. The plants, which you may place indoors, should not have pointed and spiky leaves, as the yucca or any other kind of plants with similar leaves.
It is important that the plants are kept healthy. The leaves and the soil must be clean, the plants must not be sick with yellow or dry leaves.
WELL-BEING and plants have an important and positive connection. They embellish and regenerate our homes and work environments and bring Nature close to us.
COLOURS IN OUR LIVES
Ηumans engaged with the study of the properties of light because it was what they saw and wanted to understand it, to gain thorough knowledge of it. Light is a cosmogonic force like fire.
The researchers, in very ancient times, discovered the properties of colours when they understood the refraction of light, and applied these properties in medicine as a therapy from physical and psychological ailments. They discovered the effect of colour in our lives.
Colour is vibration like sound. If we think that the entire Cosmos pulsates, and in this way lives and expresses itself, we perceive what great power and influence it exerts.
It is on this force that chromotherapy is based and applied, which can bring about changes on all levels, physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual and, in this way, the patient is healed. The therapy is done with the light waves which resemble the rays of the Cosmos.
Colour influences our entire everyday life as, depending on our mood, we wear the corresponding colours, Colours at home or workplace play a very important role as regards our personal energy. We act and react according to the vibrations which we receive from our environment.
Let us see the effect of certain colours.
ROSE PINK for optimism, tenderness and romanticism.
GREEN for optimism, freshness and calmness. Green bulbs create soothing lighting. It is the most relaxing colour for the eyes.
BLUE creates the feeling of spaciousness. Suitable for calming the spirit and relaxing.
RED energises us.
YELLOW is suitable for communication and concentration.
ORANGE. is particularly suitable for communication.
GOLD activates energy.
WHITE includes all the other colours and does have the vibrations of refracted colours. It is suitable for accentuating other colours.
Our life needs colour, and is too important not to be charmingly colourful like Mother Nature!
How You Can Stay Young, Happy and Healthy
- Throw away all the non-essential numbers. In those numbers age and height are included. Take care of yourself and improve yourself without putting up forbidding barriers. You are what you believe that you are, and this is what you emit around you, and this is the way other people see you.
- . Keep only cheerful friends. Grumpy people devour your energy and keep you on a harmful vibration level.
- Continue to learn. Learn dancing, sports, more about the arts, to play a musical instrument, gardening, ………..anything!
- Laugh a lot, laughing is health. Today laugh therapy is practiced. However, always in moderation, do not laugh for the sake of laughing!
- Appreciate and honour everything you have. Your partner, your home, your gifts, your personality, your lovely pet………they may be more than you believe.
- There may be moments for shedding tears. Be strong, have endurance, do not let the energy of sadness overwhelm you, continue to lead a normal life, always thinking of the good, and the good will come.
- Thoroughly enjoy your every day life with those and everything you love, he it your family, music, plants. ………anything. Your home is your castle.
- Take care of your health. Eat healthy food and walk a lot, walking is the best exercise for the entire body. Go, as often as you can, to places where you will with Mother Nature, to the sea, to a mountain or a forest.
- Say to those you love that you love them with every opportunity, amd also say it to yourself, Love yourself, have an excellent relationship with yourself. and enjoy the company of yourself. The only one who will always be with us, in our entire life, is ourselves.
- Remember……….life, cannot be measured by the number of breaths we take, but with the moments that keep us breathless!
The kitchen is made in order to have its own functionality and special use, and must be given the right value and place in our lives.
For this reason open plans are not appropriate and are now considered by many outdated.
We must take spacial care of our physical and psychological Health, because without the best of Health there is no Well- Being.
Poor health can be a great disincentive to success.
Coffee Tables
Coffee Tables Coffee tables, which are placed in the middle of a living room in front of sofas and armchairs, are anything but practical. They occupy much space, they do not allow moving comfortably around them, and, in many cases, not at all. When the space in the middle is free, it also facilitates the smooth flow of energy.
A newly married couple, for whom I conducted a consultation, almost quarrelled, because the wife could not pass between the table and the couch in order to go to the kitchen to bring refreshments, as her husband’s legs reached the table.
No matter how hard her husband tried to make some space, it was impossible for her to pass without skipping over his legs had she tried to pass from the side were I was sitting, there would have been the same problem, and, anyway, she did not want to disturb me.
She was rather annoyed, and her husband and his legs were to be blamed, and she told him off for not standing up in order to make enough room for her. A quarrel, in my presence, was prevented when I told them to remove the table and create the comfort of ease of movement, which was lacking!
At those tables you can neither eat nor place your drink without facing difficulty. If they are far from the seats you must steadily bend over, and if they are close, you have the problem of being trapped.
It is much more practical to place small coffee tables at the sides of sofas and armchairs, and leave adequate room to feel comfortable and move easily.
Extract from my book WELL-BEING IN LOVE The book is written in the Greek language and is intended for Greeks abroad.
The bedroom is the place where we go into our shell in order to be regenerated for the demands of the next day. It is a sacred place where our brain and our entire system rest and are refreshed.
The quality of your sleep is of utmost importance. Your bedroom must exude the energy of tranquillity and relaxation. For this reason you ought not overload it with much furniture and objects, because they create unease which is registered in the brain. The bedroom must be plain.
The bedroom must be, at the same time, a place which exudes romanticism and sensuality for the good love life of a couple. Avoid placing the laundry basket opposite the bed, as well as other anti-love objects, such as old clothes and shoes. Paintings or pictures must be few and sensual, like a couple hugging each other or a romantic landscape. See to it that you have objects in duplicate, such as two chairs, or two decorative cushions, so that they symbolize a couple. Avoid lonely depictions,
The appropriate colours are pale and romantic shades. Pale peach, rose, violet, green, turquoise or blue. Avoid very intensive colours, especially red.
LIFE IN THE OFFICE – IMPROVE YOUR BUSINESS PATH
High and good quality energy is of primary importance for a robust business, and is the basis for your business path, your success and your prosperity.
In order to have high energy and be creative and effective, and that your potential is in a steady and upward course, without sudden and inexplicable fluctuations, your work environment must be in a good energetic condition.
The foundations on which your business is built is you, and in order for it to be strong and stable, you must feel comfortable in your work environment and harmoniously identify harmoniously with it.
Avoid much metallic and glass furniture, such as dining and coffee tables, chairs with metallic armrests and legs.
Prefer wood, real bamboo or rattan, not plastic. Leather can be appropriate, however see to it that you do not buy furniture that makes your home look like an office.
There is leather or leatherette furniture, which is appropriate for an office, but not for a home.
The arrangement of furniture is of primary importance, in order to offer you comfort and cosiness.
The Bad Condition of the Bathroom
A. No Window
There must be a window for proper lighting and ventilation. Today, in many cases, there is no window.
SOLUTIONS
In this case, essential oils will help. Beautiful smells create a pleasant ambience and a sense of emotional well-being. See to it that you have adequate artificial lighting, but it should not be blinding. The essential oils must be natural, avoid artificial imitations.
B. Lack of Space
Many bathrooms are small and cannot fulfil the purpose for which they are intended. Narrowness of space is reflected as narrowness and stagnation in our lives.
SOLUTIONS
If your bathroom is very small, see to it that there are only the essentials. You ought not cram things where there is no room for them.
Do not use many decorative objects. They do not create aesthetics, but take up space. Energy cannot move as it should in places overloaded with furniture and various objects.
THE POSITION OF THE DESK
- Your desk must never be placed behind a door. Do not hide, weaken and deprive yourself of being in control of the office when the door opens.
- The door must open in the direction you want to go, not the other way around.
- Do not sit with your back exposed to places where other office workers pass by.
- Do not sit facing the wall. It is boring and restrictive.
Extract from my book HELENIC FENG SHUI
DARK HALL
If you have a hall but it is dark, dull and suffocating, the result will be the feeling of stenohoria, which means in Greek ‘narrow space’, and for this reason also means ‘feeling upset’, because a narrow space makes you feel psychologically uncomfortable. You will feel trapped in your own home, which will repel you, without you being necessarily consciously aware of it.
The effects on your psychological world are very negative, if the entrance of your home, when you go in order to be regenerated, calm down, relax, and draw strength and have inspiration for your life, suppresses and depresses you.. Your life’s visibility is limited and you may see everything from a very pessimistic angle.
Solutions
Use the proper lighting for the hall. Choose the kind of lighting you like, provided that it does not send the light downwards, particularly if the ceiling is low. You can use::
a) Floor lamps
b) Table lamps
c) Concealed lighting, if it can be installed
Lighting must be sufficient, diffuse and directed upwards.
LIVING ROOM
Every room serves a certain purpose and specific needs and is intended for its own, separate function.
Proper communication among the members of the family is difficult when a living or sitting room is a room for all purposes.
The living room is not a place to be used at the same time by the entire family for various reasons. You cannot work, study, watch television, paint, iron, rest, and be with friends in only one room.
This creates energetic havoc, disorientation, quarrels and grumbling, total lack of privacy, which we all need, and the feeling of being oppressed. One feels suffocated in such places, especially when they are small, and they put the blame on everyone and everything for their bad mood.
HOW YOU CAN TELL THAT YOU SUFFER FROM GEOPATHIC STRESS
There are many symptoms and diseases which ought to make you think that you may be sleeping or sitting and working on geopathic lines.
- Do you have headaches?
- Do you suffer from dizziness, lack of concentration, insomnia or inexplicable fatigue?
- Do you have studying difficulty?
- Do you feel exhausted, that you have no energy?
- Are you irritable?
- Do you feel disorientated?
- Is your child hyperkinetic and aggressive?
- Does your baby cry continually, is he/she sleepless and changes his/her place in his/her cot?
Negativity attracts negativity
If at home or at work there are arguments without rhyme or reason, or other behavioural problems, or health symptoms, it shows that they are run by geopathic lines.
In this case, you must take very seriously into account the dangers inherent in Geopathic Stress and take precautions against it.
One of the most important factors for the body’s self-healing, the environment, which nourishes and sustains us, has become an unknown word in most parts of the planet.
How can our body remain unharmed , when it is constantly attacked by its own environment?;
Office Building with Geopathic Stress
Geopαthic lines run through various offices.
The office workers, who sit on those lines, may not be able to work properly, there be arguments among colleagues and other behavioural problems, fatigue, sleepiness, lack of concentration, performance and productivity.
Energy Obstacles
Bathroom in poor condition.
Broken οr cracked washbasins, bathtubs, tiles, defect taps, badly plaster, cracks and blackened walls non-repainted for years and mould, unpleasant smell coming from the drains.
SOLUTIONS
Everything that is damaged must be repaired immediately, do not let too much time pass, because, on the one hand you create the energy of the old and worn out, and on the other hand, the more time goes by, the more expenses are incurred.
If an unpleasant smell comes from the drains, you can burn essential oils daily, which have a very pleasant smell and neutralize the bad odour of the drains. You will see the difference.
Extract from my book FENG SHUI -Η ΤΕΧΝΗ ΤΟΥ ΕΥ ΖΗΝ
WALL IN VERY SHORT DISTANCE FROM THE ENTRACE
It is a case that creates a feeling of discomfort, due to narrowness of space, and that own house is inhospitable and anti-social, that does not let in, that it pushes you out. With this feeling you will go in and out daily, and will emit the similar energy to your environment.
You will have the feeling that you are constantly pushed aside, like by your own home, and you will emit these vibrations as if you were saying: ‘They do not want me’. Your horizons will be limited and so will your prospects and chances of success.
If you are successful in the professional field, your work may not be pleasure but slavery. You may toil without rhyme and reason, and everything may be done difficulty, or there may be work difficulties in the future. δουλεία. Ίσως να μοχθείτε, άνευ λόγου και αιτίας, και όλα να γίνονται με δυσκολία, ή να υπάρξει επαγγελματική δυστοκία στο μέλλον.
This wall is an obstacle and there may be the same invisible wall in your life itself.

Just as there should be no clutter in your home or work environment, there should not be in your inner world.
LIFE ΙΝ YOUR ENTERPRISE
In order to have high energy and be creative and efficient, and for your potential to be in a steady and upward course, without sudden and inexplicable fluctuations, your work environment must be in a good energy condition.
The foundations on which your business is built is you, and in order for it to be strong and stable, you must feel comfortable in your work environment and harmoniously identify harmoniously with it.
In order to be successful and happy, you must have high energy.
Your kitchen setting shows the course of your finances.
Good, tasty home- made food means health, a kitchen with strong energy means prosperity.
Harmony of Space (Hellenic feng shui) addresses contemporary subjects and problems, which we face, and gives the appropriate solution.
The philosophy, art and science, which I studied and practice, sees to it that it finds the antidote to a negative situation and any problem, with appropriate solutions for everyone and for all cases.
It is what I write in my books: that even in a Lilliputian balcony you can create a garden!
As you see, with very simple means, some greenery and few plants, you can transform a dull balcony into a place of warmth and peace of mind.
We create our surroundings. My home is my castle. And it need not be large in order to be a ‘castle’.

Slow Food
Third party comments on slow food:
“Slow food is the best movement, since there is fast food!”
Prince Michael of Salm
President of the International Wine and Spirit Competition
Slow Food:
Slow food is an international non profit organization. It was founded in 1986 as an answer to the frantic spread of fast food and the consequent loss of taste culture and the diversity of the foods. Today, slow food is an international movement, with a 100.000 members, uniting millions of people from over 160 counties in all continents.
Slow food combines ethics and pleasure with one word: “eco-gastronomy”. Slow food promotes biocultivation for all products, traditional animal husbandry and preparation of foods, as well as the taste variety of local foods.

The kitchen is a part of the home which has its own functionality and property and must be given its proper value and place in our lives. For this reason open plans are not appropriate, and are now considered by many old-fashioned. For this reason open plans are not appropriate and are now considered by many outdated.
The energy, which is created in the kitchen while preparing food is very high, and while cooking it is beneficial, however it must remain there and not be channelled into the other parts of the home. The energies of the various rooms ought not be mingled, because they have their own, distinct quality.
Apart from that the kitchen, as beautiful and tidy as it may be, does not belong to the sitting or the dining room. The atmosphere of the sitting and the dining room is different to the place where one cooks. When the entire space is open plan, the warmth and romanticism, which an elegant sitting and dining room can offer are lost. Each room must be intended for its own, particular use. In the kitchen the food, which is so valuable, is prepared, however, the view of the kitchen from the sitting or the dining room is a different thing. It strips them of their true purpose and functionality.
Food and the meals, which we every day have, are so self-evident that you may have not thought yet of their true value and their real meaning. Food is not only intended to sustain us,, it is the energy which enables us to meet the demands of each day, and the barometer of our efficiency. See to it that the energy of your space is high so that your efficiency is equally high, and as a natural result, your success and prosperity.
