Passages + Practices for a More Vibrant Life
Red Envelope Tradition
The Red Envelope Tradition has been honored for many years through the Black Sect Buddhism Feng Shui lineage. When you work with Vibrant Interiors for Feng Shui services, I will share with you special meditations, rituals, space clearings, and Feng Shui cures that reflect the teachings of H.H. Professor Lin Yun and Black Sect Buddhism.
What is the Red Envelope Ritual?
The Red Envelope Tradition has been honored for many years through the Black Sect Buddhism Feng Shui lineage. When you work with Vibrant Interiors for Feng Shui services, I will share with you special meditations, rituals, space clearings, and Feng Shui cures that reflect the teachings of Black Sect Buddhism. In exchange, I request a $1 bills to be placed in 9 Red Envelopes as both the number and the color are auspicious. You can also place your full consultation and service payment check in one of the envelopes too.
These Red Envelopes will help activate and bless the “transcendental and spiritual aspect” of the sacred exchange of energy, information, and cures shared between Vibrant Interiors and you.
What Kind of Red Envelope?
Any particular Red Envelope will do! They can be purchased on Amazon (you can get them delivered in a day!) or your local stationery store.
What Happens After the Exchange?
Once I receive the envelopes, I will bless the intentions, goals, cures, and recommendations I make. I then place the envelopes in a sacred place in my home office for a time until I feel the Universe has fully embraced the scope of our work.
What Happens to the Bill$?
Once these bills are cleared and blessed, they are consciously spent. The energetically cleared bills will be released from any dense, negative energy, and financial stress that is usually accumulated with currency as they are recirculated into the Universe!
Important Note!
You may honor the tradition of Red Envelopes if you share the information you receive from our consultation with anyone else to keep the energy and tradition flowing!
The Natural Magic of Plants
Plants are magic! They are a great way to bring vibrancy and color into your home or office and enhance your quality of life in so many ways.
Plants are magic! They are a great way to bring vibrancy and color into your home or office and enhance your quality of life in so many ways. They naturally absorb carbon dioxide and expel oxygen through photosynthesis. During this process they also remove toxins from the air, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like formaldehyde and benzene. Plants are especially useful during the winter when we keep doors and windows closed.
Plants have amazing healing properties. Add to your office space to decrease headaches, colds, and overall fatigue. I love to encourage clients to place as many plants in their space as possible.
Need help picking the right ones? No problem - I am here to make it easy and FUN! Who’s down for a trip to the local nursery? ;-)
Customized Balance + Harmony With Yin/Yang
Some say ---During this tumultuous time, our homes have become our office, classroom, gym, etc. which has brought disruption and too much “yang energy” to our spaces.

I say -- this doesn’t have to be a bad thing! Our spaces are here to serve us and protect us. Just like some wise people say you don't have to go outside of yourself to find peace and healing (was it the Good Witch of the North?), I say, you don't have to travel far from your home or workspace to find everything you need. You just have to create a space that you connect with and that supports you. Balance is key!
For example - adding some yin and quiet areas for refuge even in the most yang of spaces; or enjoying your outdoor yard space in nature to decompress from sitting on a Zoom call too long; or bringing nature inside (like a plant or a beautiful landscape painting). Even the smallest office can have a tiny corner with a table fountain where you roll out a yoga mat and meditate or just concentrate on breathing for 5 minutes. A water element is good for the Career gua anyway!
I feel like the Western World has given Balance a bad rap. It shouldn’t mean, “doing all the things” (parenting, working, staying healthy, having a social life, sleeping) while walking across a tightrope without falling off. To me it means, finding moments of peace and grounding in the midst of chaos. Those are the moments where you connect with yourself and the Universe. The moments where you regenerate and rejuvenate yourself and find the joy to keep going and enjoying the journey. I want to help create places where you can do that. That’s the heart of Vibrant Living.
Of course it’s not all about yin and meditation. We want to make sure places that need the Yang energy like a kitchen or large collaborative office are as functional, yet harmonious, as possible.
Principles of Paint Selection
Choosing a paint color is so much more than picking a color you think is cute in the moment - paint can be a major contributing factor to the entire vibe or your space, both visually and energetically. When choosing the right paint color, here is my method...
Choosing a paint color is so much more than picking a color you think is cute in the moment - paint can be a major contributing factor to the entire vibe of your space, both visually and energetically. When choosing the right paint color, here is my method...
1. What will best support your true nature based on the #fengshui #fiveelements principles and 9 Ki Star Astrology?
2. What items do you own and love can I incorporate into the space? I then align them with the bagua map for that room.
3. Activate intuitive design tools to find the perfect color! (Hint: involves me meditating and thinking about the space and client a lot!).
Color is not just about making a space pretty or dramatic. Color is therapy. It is healing and supportive of the person using the room. That is why I take color selection very seriously.
