Looking to create space for a new relationship in your life? It might be as simple as rearranging some old aspects and getting rid of those that no longer serve. Here are five ways to do that—and possibly welcome a potential love match.
Manifesting is real—and I’m so excited to share my favorite Feng Shui and manifestation exercises with you. Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese practice that uses energy forces to create harmony between people and their surroundings.
If you haven’t read The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, it’s all about how the energy you put out is the energy you get back. There are also tons of Feng Shui experts who swear by creating a space to welcome someone special into your life. Here are my best practices for Feng Shuing someone new in:
Declutter.
Listen to me. From one hoarder to another, it’s time to get a grip. I know you love those jeans, but have you worn them in more than a year? How about more than two? If the answer is no, you have to get rid of them. What about all the stuff that keeps accumulating on your entryway table? You’d be surprised, but that may be hindering you a lot more than you think.
Create Space in Your Room.
Yes, you live alone. That doesn’t mean you can’t create the bedroom that you’d want to have with a potential partner. Make their side of the bed nice. See to it that it welcomes the presence of someone if they were to walk into your life tomorrow. Creating space is the theme here, and you need to make sure you’ve done just that.
Get Rid of Old Memories.
This may be hard to hear, but it’s time to throw out those birthday cards from your ex. Without realizing it, owning these keepsakes is preventing you from practicing “out with the old and in with the new.” When one door closes, another beautiful one opens. But only if and when that door is actually shut!
Care For a Plant.
How can you bring in someone to take care of you if you’re not taking care of anything yourself? Taking care of a plant is an amazing way to Feng Shui. Many plants are known for creating luck in your love life. Plants that can symbolize love include roses, anthuriums, philodendrons, and moss balls.
Make the List.
I saved this one for last because it’s my absolute favorite and my go-to exercise. The energy of the world doesn’t know what to bring you if you don’t write it down. Make a list of your needs versus your wants in a partnership. Be specific and discerning. After you’ve made this list, you can rip it up and “send it out into the world.” I did this exercise and manifested my husband. I swear!
Manifesting isn’t easy, but these tips are a great start. I always say, if you’re looking for someone with specific qualities, make sure you have those qualities, too. Manifestation only works if you’re bringing something to the table as well. Don’t forget, we get back what we put out.
