On election night, millions of Americans will hunker down for an anxious night in front of the TV. With frayed nerves, restless glances, and nails bitten down to nubs, how can passionate voters set aside the anxiety and focus instead on creating a calm and comforting atmosphere?

With Halloween just a week away, you might already be wondering whether or not it’s possible to celebrate in a way that doesn’t compromise the positive energy flow of your home. Let’s face it; skeletons, tombstones, and all the hair-raising hallmarks of October 31st don't exactly evoke health, happiness, and harmony! Don’t take this as a sign to abandon Halloween altogether though, because it’s entirely possible to celebrate this spooky season in a way that can still be in-line with your Feng Shui goals.

Fire Up the Grill! How to Cook With Good Feng Shui

Whether it’s a cozy studio apartment or a eight-bedroom mansion, it’s my belief that no type of space has a particular advantage over another type of space simply because it’s possible to create good Feng Shui in any area, regardless of size! Feng Shui is versatile in that boosting the positive energy in your home just requires following the basic principles.

It doesn’t have to be all chocolate-covered strawberries and grand gestures, though; in fact, some of the most effective ways to take your relationship to the next level are the small changes you make to your home environment. Here are some simple yet effective Feng Shui hacks to help sweep your partner off their feet!
