Many buyers after touring a prospective home practice westernized feng shui when they turn to me and say "bad house karma'. We all know when a house is out-of-sync. Stuffed with belongings, one-off colors, and bad seller energy. Here are some tips to improve house karma.

-Use paint color to add energy. Red in dining rooms, orange in kitchen and playrooms, green in living and bedrooms. Blue to promote healing and relaxing and purple for wealth and abundance.

-Lighting feng shui-style is to calm and uplift. Dimmers maximize benefits, bright lighting brings movement and activity, and softer and lower lighting offers calmness.

-Water and air are key in feng shui. Keep water in vases refreshed and the air clean by opening windows and doors. Fountains and scented water bring calm.

-Artwork and objects de art are reflections of your inner self. Turbulent aggressive pictures disturb and not calm. Look for art for inspires not depresses you.

-Aromatherapy can help you change your way of thinking. Lemon is a study stimulator and the scent of roses inspires romance.

-Sound from wind chimes and soft classical music set the right tone for a feng shui home.

-Hosting an open house with food can create good feng shui. Knowing which foods are tied to which part of our life center can bring results. Knowledge use sweet and bland, career use salty, helpful people use hot or spicy, family use sour, children or creativity use hot or spicy, wealth or abundance use sour, fame or reputation use bitter, and personal relationships use sweet or bland.
