However, an excess of water can make you feel overwhelmed or overstimulated.

Earth

The earth element generates a feeling of strength and grounding in the room.

Anything in earth tones, such as green, brown, or sand, will help you achieve balance.

A painting or photograph of a landscape and low flat surfaces also bring this element to your space.

Metal

Metal will be felt in the room in characteristics such as focus and organization.

It will help with mental clarity and intelligence.

Too much metal, and you may be prone to speaking hastily and overly critical thinking.

The colors to add are white, gray, and silver.

Wood

Wood symbolizes growth, strength, and flexibility.

It harnesses creative energy.

An excessive amount of this element can make you feel overwhelmed and inflexible.

Incorporate Feng Shui Into Your Desk

First, ensure you have adedicated desk representing a stable career.

If you might put your desk in a separate room used only for work, thats ideal.

However, that isnt always possible.

You will feel more in control of your life and career because you might see anything approaching.

The command position works subconsciously, too, even if you aren’t expecting guests in your home office.

Moving your desk is the best solution, though.

Create Good Flow

Pay attention to the flow in your office.

Is there enough space around your desk?

Are there any obstacles that prevent you from easily getting to your desk chair?

These could represent blocks, which could mean that you are making things unnecessarily challenging for yourself.

You want to be able to approach your desk and your career with ease while having room to grow.

confirm its also big enough for you to work on comfortably.

Laying the bagua on your desk can give you clues about what might happen in different career areas.

For example, look at where the clutter accumulates on your desk.

Choose a Supportive Chair

Acomfortable office chairwith a high back represents more support in your work life.

The color of your chair will embody the element you’d like to invite more of into your career.

you’re free to also locate the wealth corner of your desk similarly.

Place an amethyst or citrine crystal here to activate the wealth corner of your office or desk.

Imagine a three-by-three grid overlaid on your office space or desktop to find it.

Sit at your desk so your back is up against a solid wall.

Place a mirror on the blank wall to expand your view.

Bring positive energy into your office by placing things there that make you happy.
