The term "Space Clearing" refers to the act of harmonizing and revitalizing the energies within your home or workplace. Buildings absorb all of the energies of the people who have used the space as well as energies held in the land. Most of the energies around us are nourishing, but there are always some that are less supportive. The intent of space clearing is to locate any draining areas and transform them to create a healthy flow of energy throughout every room.

Energy within a building becomes stagnant or draining for several reasons.

• Indoor energy becomes stagnant over time because it is removed from natural elements and processes. Energy can also become stagnant in corners and unused spaces.
• Stagnant energy naturally collects wherever there is clutter.
• Furniture placement can impede the flow of energy in a room.
• Human imprinted energies from previous occupants can be draining. These fields can last for many years, and may originate from people who used a space many years earlier. Sometimes the earth is holding human imprints from conflict or trauma much older than the current home.
• Objects can absorb human imprinted emotions. Sometimes the emotions held in these objects are draining. This can be true of previously owned furniture, ancestral or inherited items, or relics and objects from other times or other parts of the world.
• Occasionally there are spirits present who need help in moving to a more appropriate dimension. These beings rarely hold ill will toward the current occupants, but their presence can be draining.

A consultant skilled in space clearing will be able to work with the subtle energies of your environment. They will harmonize the chi, and give you practical recommendations for nourishing the energy in these areas in an ongoing way.

Space clearing can take place in the context of a full Feng Shui consultation or as a separate service. In either case you will experience a new appreciation for the living being that is your home!
