Let’s Keep It Real

Many homes have chipped bowls, cracked mirrors, stopped clocks, or broken chairs tucked away somewhere.


Core Logic 🧲

Everything carries energy.

Broken items tend to hold stagnant or “incomplete” energy.

Translation

Keeping items that no longer function well can subtly reinforce a mindset of “making do” or settling for less than you deserve.

Releasing them often creates space for fresh energy and new possibilities.


💡 Golden Tip

Consider letting go of broken items. Many people notice their space feels lighter and clearer afterward.


Items to Review ✨

  • Chipped bowls and plates
  • Cracked mirrors
  • Stopped clocks
  • Broken chairs
  • Burnt-out light bulbs
  • Leaking faucets
  • Stuck drawers

Feng Shui Practice

When you have time:

  1. Walk through each room in your home
  2. Notice any broken or non-functioning items
  3. Repair what’s worth fixing, and consider releasing what isn’t
  4. Notice how the space feels afterward
