Who are you?  The answers could be in your closet! Is Your Wardrobe Giving Main Character Energy? Today we are talking about Closet Feng Shui as a meditation on who we have been and who we are becoming.  Are you showing up as a leading lady or background player?  Clothes can help us be seen or they can help us hide and blend in.

From a Feng Shui perspective, Feng Shuing one’s closet is as important as any other room! One of the areas folks seem to struggle with most is decluttering their closets.  Part of this can stem from an energetic attachment to who they have been even when that part of themselves is no longer serving them.  Our clothes and closets depict how we present ourselves to the world.  All of our armor is there, like protective gear.  Also our personality and the “characters” we’re playing live inside our closets via our costumes and wardrobe.  I want to help people learn about themselves in a deeper way through their clothes and uncover new aspects of themselves that are ready to be revealed and experienced.  This can be a freeing and cathartic experience!  I can definitely attest to that through my own fashion journey. Let’s make dressing a therapeutic and empowering practice.  These sentiments are why I became fixated on the niche of Feng Shui that applies to dressing and embarked on my Fashion Feng Shui ®️ training & Apprenticeship. My Apprenticeship is now nearing its completion in August and I’m gearing up for a Fall Launch in September of my Closet Feng Shui Services! It’s the perfect timing for Closet Clearing and preparing for the new season.

I want to give as much importance to dressing as I do decorating and translate in energetic terms how it’s all connected!  I have this theory that you can take a woman who feels plain and transform her into a great beauty through impeccable style and grooming.  Some call it glamour magic.  By the same token you can take an objectively beautiful woman and minimize her looks with poor grooming and drab ill fitting clothes.  Think Hollywood…. They do this all the time! They take great beauties and have them play a character who is supposed to be unattractive and they dull hear beauty with drab unflattering costuming, hair and makeup for the role. We let the clothes inform us of a characters role. Is she a leading lady or an extra? It’s all done through the illusion of makeup and wardrobe.  What if you were the one inadvertently painting yourself into a plain Jane because you didn’t feel good inside?  You couldn’t see the best version of yourself. Sometimes we need a fresh set of eyes to help us see our potential. That’s the role I will be playing, where I see your highest potential through my Feng Shui eyes.

The analogy I just made about wardrobe can also be true of physical spaces!  You could be living in the most expensive zip-code and in a mansion filled with clutter, filth and chaos. Folks could enter such a home and feel disgust and discomfort. You might as well live on the streets in a tent if this is how you’re going to treat your sacred space. By the same token,
