Your Home is a Vision Board, Harness the Secret Manifesting Power of Your Home. So please welcome Marie Diamond. You know, my podcast is so always aligned with my life. I'm actually sitting in my new space. You know, I'm a mother of four. And I just have never had my own office. And so this is really exciting. And it's only been since Saturday. Perfect timing then. I know. And I'm feeling so good. So I know that this is real just because of the way my body's feeling, my mind. And yeah, so I'm excited to have you on one of the top feng shui leaders for our time and amazing books. And I can't wait to hear about your new book as

well. But just to start off, tell us a little bit about yourself. Well, thank you, first of all, for having me on your podcast. It's a great honor. And so yeah, you know, I never really planned to ever become a global renowned feng shui master. But you know, just a little bit feedback. I'm born in Belgium and in a traditional Belgian Catholic family. And the difference was with me that I was as a child already very clear on seeing energy and feeling what was going on around me about spaces, about people. And so I started really very early connecting in with energy and especially at seven years old, I already had a spiritual mentor, spiritual master rose for love and royal blue for power and confidence. And I definitely needed it because I grew up in a quite a physical and emotional abusive family from my father's side. And so I needed, you know, strength and love in many ways but it's only when i was 15 when i had a near-death experience

after an accident with a truck that as i went to the other side i was giving a message from beings of light saying i had to go back because i was here to enlighten more than 500 million people. So I woke up with that message. Of course, as a 15 year old, I had no idea what that meant. I would say today, I would start a podcast, you know, or a TikTok account or something. But at that time, the only thing I thought was I need to be more of service in my community. That was for the church, for youth movement. So I tried to be making a difference in whatever way I could. And then a few months later, when I reconnected with my spiritual teacher, I asked him, so

why did that happen? Like what did I do wrong? I mean, I was already I mean I was already meditating I was really trying to be a really good human being and he just said you know with little smirk like you had bad feng shui and I was like what is that right and you know again Catholic European country nobody talked about feng shui and I went to research it in the library. Of course, there's no books about this before internet couldn't find anything. And so he

told me that the place where I slept was really bad luck for me. And to be honest, when I looked at my life, it was I had several accidents, one that almost killed me. I had no friends. I was bullied severely at school. I was very lonely. I was sick all the time. And that was actually on the north side of the house. So there was no sunlight coming in. So he suggested I would move to another space. And my brothers already have left our home. They are much older than me so I asked if my parents if I could have the Western room where there was sunlight coming in the whole afternoon and I changed the colors he gave me some colors that would be better for me and one would be orange and peach what I still do till today in my office because it's a good color for me it makes me always joyful and I started

drawing images of things I wanted like I created a three-dimensional vision board because what I had before were you know not images that were connect with me it was just not positive and so I draw images of romance, images of friends. And before I knew it, I started having friends. The bullies stopped bullying me. That was huge for me. And I started having my first boyfriend. And I was like, suddenly from being really looking back at a depressed child,

I was a very happy young teenager, right? And that is when he said, later on, I will come back to you on this. So I moved forward in my studies, I became a lawyer, I became a did criminology, and did business management. And so I started really working for the government of Belgium, and then later for the European government. And at 31, I was like, you know what, I will start a consulting company. And as I was working with people, consulting them, I started teaching them meditation because I felt they were so stressed

because I had been meditating for so long. And I started giving them some basic tips on feng shui. And before I knew it I was like one more people are asking me about it so I attracted a feng shui grandmaster and I started studying with him in Malaysia and that is where I really found my passion right I mean at first of all was accepted as a student because that was not easy at that time and i was his first european student and it was like for me it was like oh my god this is what i'm here for i just loved it i understood it i even if i'm from another culture right it was

like i have lived this for years every moment i said something I was like oh I get it I get it so before I knew it I will start teaching consulting people I got my master's certification and that is how I ultimately start sharing this information and then when I moved to the US I of course practice my feng shui for my own home. And as I then created my first home in San Francisco, I lived at that time. Within a year, I was invited to speak and being part of a Transformation Leadership Council. It was a mastermind created by Jack Canfield, where all the great ones in transformation are part of. And I was a total unknown person, to be honest. I still got accepted because I mentored a lot of these people. So I was their mentor. I was their

master. So they knew my gift. And then that's where i was filmed in the secret and of course the secret made me very well known all over the world and that's how now i have more than 2 million online students on feng shui and energy work and you know became a global best-selling author and i'm very excited to keep sharing it here now today on your Sense of Soul podcast. healing method medical intuitive with Amy Lee McCree world renowned medical intuitive with 24 years of experience a six-figure business owner and best-selling author of over 18 books she has created a new certification program unlike anything else out there the doors are open now you can now discover how she works as a medical intuitive and talks to her client's spirit guides to find the root causes of their imbalances and how to reverse engineer

Now back to our amazing guest. Unbelievable. I love your story. You know, I actually listened to your YouTube channel this morning as I was sitting outside having my coffee, usually where I meditate in the morning and just, or mindfulness, whatever happens. And you told the story about how you were little and how you changed your space and it changed you. And it made me think of my youngest, who is now 12. She went through this period where like every six months she wanted to change her room and she wanted to change

like everything like the colors the style this you know where everything was arranged and she's a very inward person in her room is her sanctuary and so I even though people were looking at me like this is crazy that you're actually going to continue to do this but her room means so much to her you know I mean some kids I mean I have four kids I mean my other kids are like whatever right but because it meant so much to her I did I kept going and right now she's this is the longest she's ever kept anything but it's been over a year yeah well she's perhaps practicing her sole purpose right for later on doing artistic work and their design perhaps feng shui you know it's just like you know I do believe that children

are practicing already their purpose the parents don't always see it yet. But I think it's lovely that you honor that in her. But it does change your mood. It changed her mood when she was uncomfortable in her room. She would reach out to me. And when we got it comfortable, you know, there was like this big sigh of relief and like yes yeah i have a home right so it's so important and people don't always understand the impact that a home a living space has on you right so that was one of the first things i learned from my grandmaster that there's three aspects to manifestation the first one is to connecting with your spiritual self, what we call spiritual luck.

And that is through perhaps meditation, taking time for yourself, prayers, walking in nature, like contemplation, really connecting in word, right? And so that's what we call also the part of your soul purpose, tapping into that could be your karma, your your spiritual lessons. Now, can we change that? Yes, we can change that. But it's a lot longer process. It's like your awakening journey, right? It's not going overnight.

Yeah. So the second part is working with your human self. And that is your mindset, that is your behavior, that's all the actions you take. This is something we are more in control over. But it's still asked a lot of discipline, right? To be always positive thinking to always feel grateful to take always positive actions towards your goals. I mean, it's still a process that is longer, and it's requires daily adjustments, right. And then the last part is what we call the environment, the earth energy. And so that is where your environment, where you sleep, where you are

living, where you are working, is actually subconsciously affecting you. And we do feel that, like your daughter felt that, yeah? She was like, this space is not good for me, right? And so she's, and that's what I think a lot of women do also like it doesn't feel good they start cleaning they start changing things around they put fresh flowers up they started cluttering they feel that the vibe is dead the vibe is not great yeah and then they change something what they're doing they're creating energy they're creating a flow there's something moving and what they're moving outside of them they're moving inside of them and so as they're doing that what happens is that they're changing that earth's energy

and they're changing subconsciously their mind and and how they feel and what they do things and so that last part is the easiest to change, right? So once you have set it up and once you keep it regularly in place, like you keep the cluttering, you keep making sure that everything looks beautiful and there's still a flow, but it's literally you don't have to do it all the time, yeah? But the impact of it is immediate, yeah? And it's really profound. And that's what I experienced at 15, what your daughter experienced, and what a lot of people experience when they sometimes live in a house

and they're like, yeah, things are going well. They move to another house and, like, you know, finances are worse or there's more conflict or vice versa. Sometimes they move into a better house right um so that's why you see that with companies or shops it's possible they put a restaurant in that restaurant doesn't work well they try another thing it still doesn't work because the location is off there's something with location is everything but also what's inside the location what are the colors

what are the images right and so you can adjust that so that is what I do and what I teach people is that it's very personal yeah and that's based on your birthday we're going to go into that and it's all because your soul comes in at a certain time in our earth energy like it lands on the planet lands you know at that time right and so based on that people can find out and they can download a free marie diamond app and so they put in their birthday and they have to put in their birth gender because it's also connected with your dna if it's a male or female dna even whatever you choose later on or whatever is aligned with you later on it's connect with your original dna and so what happens is that you then create a calculation and you get an energy number between one and nine.

And so that will indicate I'm just opening my app that will indicate that you have a number. Yeah, my number is five. It means I'm a connector. And then people will see a compass, the diamond compass, and it indicates four directions that have good energy for you and mine is southwest so for the rest of my life it's southwest has my success and money energy and so what i do then i suggest people to hold on the compass yeah this is your personal compass and what's in your success direction in your office yeah so you hold it in the center of the space yeah hold the level of your heart so it's really connected with who you are and like in the southwest for me i put there my books i put

there my awards i put there my vision board, my journal, any symbol of success, because that is actually where the wind of success, the energy flow of success comes into your space. Yeah. So you also have one for relationships. So in my relationship directions, actually over there, I have a picture there of my family, my team. I have an image there of my high-end clients. I have a globe there because I have students in more than 190 countries. So how can I represent them except by a globe? So I would suggest for you, Shana, to have this global audience, put a globe in your relationship direction. And so you put things out. And as you're doing that, you're actually subconsciously giving yourself a message that it's okay to receive that positive wind. Yeah. And so that's the first step I always

suggest people to do in their bedroom, in their office or workspace, even if it's in your living room, you can still work with that. And also in, you know, the area where you spend the most time, like three to five hours a day or nights. Yeah. So you don't activate really your kitchen because, you know, you don't activate your bathroom because, because you know it's not where you spend three to five hours a day right so we don't do that and then one of the other very important tips is that wherever you're sitting you need to see the flow of energy coming into your space and the flow of and that's the first thing I changed, literally in my new space in my new bedroom, is that I put my bed and I put my desk in such a position that I could see if my parents would come in to the room. Yeah, because we

don't want to look at out of the window like the windows are behind me I am NOT looking at windows because the door is over there so if my husband brings me a cup of tea right I literally see him coming so when you see the people coming into your space that's both in the bedroom like when you wake up you see somebody coming in when you're sitting somewhere you the door where people that people used to come in right or the entrance that will actually put you in what we call a power position your brain will actually go into an alpha frequency and you are seeing more the opportunities that come to you. If you're sitting with your back to the door, yeah,

or like you're sitting facing a wall or you're facing a window, nobody can sit on the other side, yeah? Like your audience cannot be there. You cannot see your audience coming in, yeah? Or you can say, well, I see the window, I see the street, yeah, but, you know, they're not coming through your window right so they will use the door so sometimes people want to see the view and see the door yes you can position yourself this way and then if that's an extra thing you can do is when you look

at your four good directions trying to face one of your good directions, if possible. It's not always possible. Like right now, I'm facing my health direction. If I would face my success direction, the door would be behind me. So I cannot do that. Yeah? So if you face one of your good directions, again, your energy will go into positive creative frequencies.

If you face one of the directions that it shows empty for you, you will go into beta. You will go more into fear. You won't concentrate so well. You will not have all these wonderful things manifesting for you. So these are like some basic things that people can do literally by using my app and of course then they can go into getting more my books and seeing how they the books are actually always leading you step by step through the system so i'm a nine nine okay wonderful you're the healer yeah and my success direction is east this way towards my window so if i did go towards my window then i'd be opposite of my door so right now i'm in between

them correct so what you're doing right now you're facing north. So if you click on your compass, north should be your relationship. Oh, I'm facing relationships. Okay. So in that sense, that's very good because you're connecting with your audience. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So you're in a relationship, right?

So that's super good. I don't know if you see clear enough your door though so one of the things i always suggest to people when you have to move your head yes and you're not in the right position so for you it would be better that you would sit in the north facing south, who is a very good direction for you, right? And you would see the door, you will increase your business, you will increase your popularity, you will increase people seeing you, because if you can't see people, people can't see you. I see, this is so exciting, because I'm not attached to anything, because I just moved in. I love that. Yeah.

And so you can then put also behind you, I think there's a wall there, right? Can you put that in the north wall? I have a chair rail over on the other side. Just play with that, right? So it's all about facing a good direction and seeing the door. Then you need to activate the east for you as your success direction. So the question is, what is in the east right now? In the east is the window.

Okay, so it's a window, but it's not activated. Yeah. So east for you, it would be good to put a plant there like a plant like that i have here round leaves yeah something growing i have a plant okay beautiful yes very good because it shows growth but perhaps you can put also a table there with i don't, some books of success or something connect with your podcast, Sense of Soul, like literally frame that and put that there, even if it's on a table, if you have awards

or anything connected with that, right? Feng Shui is like the energy system of the home. Like we use acupuncture or Qigong or Tai Chi. So we're activating certain areas like acupuncture spots yeah and then as you place there certain things it's like your subconscious mind is connecting with it and it's happening more and more so i just give you an example right I put in my relationship direction I had like because I work with some Hall of Famers in sports yeah so I put the word Hall of Fame there like with some pictures of my Hall of Famer athletes but and sometimes it doesn't even dawn

on you what it creates. Yeah. And so I was just receiving the message two days ago. I was accepted in the Hall of Fame of speakers. Wow. Congratulations. Thank you. So it was really interesting. It's like you put something out and it's like, that's what happened to me when I put in my

success direction in 2001 I put my vision board and I put a little post-it note on that vision board that said I'm going to be in a movie seen by millions of people that transforms the world I was like a message right and I put an Oscar a fake Oscar out there with the name Marie Diamond because I thought like what's a symbol of a good movie? Right. I didn't know. Was I going to be an actress or a producer? I had no idea. Right. I just got that message.

So, of course, I went into The Being and the Secret and more than 15 other documentaries since then and having my own TV show. But it was like as Marie Diamond, as myself. Right. But the funny part was, as Marie diamond as myself. Right. But the funny part was, is that I put that Oscar there. So the universe was picking that up. So within a month I got my first Oscar winning clients. So the universe reads very precise.

Okay. Yeah. So as I was putting that there, you know, many years later, I started looking and I only had one Oscar winning clients, like not two Oscars, not three Oscars. my success direction and a week later i was in the home of stephen spielberg that had three oscars and out of the blue they called me like i don't do marketing that's just word of referral now he has four oscars so guess how many oscars i have in my success direction i have four oscars yeah because i have to keep up with my clients oh my god that's so amazing wow so what where were you putting your oscars in what direction in the east i put it for me in my success direction so for your death for me it's southwest yeah but let's say there are some

people you would love to interview right so let's say you want to interview some famous people that you you're reaching out for your podcast what you can do you can create a collage literally of pictures put that in your success or relationship direction both will be fine and or you can put the books of them out yeah so for example i had a book of jack canfield in my relationship direction now i had no idea who that man was, but somebody had gave me that book. And like literally three months later, I was in his home doing his feng shui. Yeah. And he's a for more than 20 years. So it is very interesting how precise the universe reacts to it.

But can you think how precise the universe has been reacting to the wrong information you have placed around you so if you put in your without knowing you created clutter chaos in your health direction and you feel like it's very hard to really have good energy for you well it's possible your home has been sending that message to your body yeah you know create a little bit of chaos right because there's chaos there yeah and but if you then declutter it and you start feeling better and you're like or you find the best doctor for you or the best healer. So everything around you is a subconscious message. And if you can make sure it's all aligned with your goals, with your vision, your home is having

33%, one third of your manifestation power. And it's something you can change very quickly. And I've seen so many times people have results within 10 days. Something starts shifting very quickly. Sometimes the day after they text me like, Marie, my boss was never addressing me, was always looking down on me. He started complimenting me. Within a week, I got a raise. I got another job. It's like the magic that you've created in your mindset already, in your soul, in your heart, it sometimes cannot manifest because your home, the space where you live and express yourself is telling a different story. Oh my my gosh you have me freaked out my worst closet ever is smack in the health oh wow so okay cleaning out the closet today let go of things i always say to people when you go into closets, let go of things that are broken.

Let go of things that are not your size anymore. You can say, well, one day I'll get back to that size. Let's be honest. Once you're in that size, you will want to buy new clothes. Yeah. Absolutely. So just let go of at least 20% yeah create flow 10% is sometimes not enough give away to charity perhaps there are some friends that said like I

always oh I love you green shirt well pass it on if they want to write organize it declutter it yeah because once you do that it's like you're decluttering your gut at the same time you've been cluttering your and so a lot of people when they start doing function later first days I always say drink a lot of water because there's a detox effect happening in people's body because it's like acupuncture in your energy field will be creating a change in your body your mindset will be stronger your focus will be more aligned your body will feel like it's like let's be honest when as as

people when we are like your house is a mess and you clean up you feel better you know your mood is better but what if it's more than your mood perhaps it's also affecting your energy fields yeah and energy is everything and also for your body yeah so yeah initially that's one of the things I taught my kids early on when there was a mess to let them feel like feeling yeah right right and so I have two grown-up men oh my god their partners are so lucky because there are men that are so neat and clearing everything up because I train them to understand and feel what chaos did to their themselves. All right. Where's my kid? I'm going to go get my sons.

What is really fun, because it's an app and children love this kind of thing, right? Oh, my God. Is to teach them where their directions are, and you will see there's a possibility to check other people's directions. Yeah? And at least to say you cannot have clutter in the directions that are positive for you. Okay. Okay? So start somewhere.

Yeah? If they say, like, well, I i'm bullied at school i don't have friends okay let's look at your relationship direction that corner there there's no clutter there that's not possible so let them teach step by step and i have to tell you i work with thousands and thousands of people that have children they have seen the shift that it creates because now they have a little tool yeah yeah and they can download on their own app yeah you know what so i also have adhd my daughter does i have a son who's on the spectrum so we all kind of you know it's interesting because it's like one of those things where my house may look clean, but don't look in any drawers or cupboards.

I shove it all in there. And I got way more junk drawers than anyone should. And you know, it really is junk. How many pens and pencils that don't even work that are in those drawers? Good part is that what you don't see, whatever you put away, your brain doesn't register. Okay? So it's better to put it in a closet

and so your brain doesn't see it. What it sees if you, for example, come into the dining room and it's full on the table or in the bedroom, it's full of stuff on the bed, next to the bed. Have you been to my house? That is not okay. So I always say to people, look, it's better to put it away and then later on when you find time to really go through it.

And I have a very good system that I describe in my books. It's called a five box system that and also to get a declutter buddy somebody that sits with you and says and asks you the question do you need that in the next year it's not about does it bring you joy because a lot of things bring me joy to be honest right so but to stay practical yeah it's broken okay let it go is this something that in the next year I want to keep practical but sometimes it's a memory and you want to pass this on okay put it in a memory box like get a box like all my kids have and myself a memory box yeah it's Things that, treasures, you know?

But when the box is full, they have to go through the box and let go of a few things. There are some ways to deal with it that are very practical, yeah? Oh my gosh, this is incredible. And I needed you so much today because as I moved into this room, you know what I created. That was what was in this room, right? I mean, I created a mess in the hallway, right? So now I'm like, ooh, I don't want to think about what's outside of this room because this room is amazing.

But, you know, so my oldest daughter moved out. So my son that was in this room moved into her room. And so there was a lot of decluttering though, as you move, when you move, you have an opportunity to get rid of a lot of things, which is, you know, a good thing. And we haven't moved in a long time. So it is an opportunity to, to get rid of some shed, shed some of the junk. It is because before we know it of some, shed some of the junk. It is.

Because before we know it, we accumulate so much, right? And I always say to people, don't wait once a year. Do that regularly. So we have a house every few months. We're going through our stuff, yeah? We make it like a fun day, right? And if we get everything done that day we go out for dinner you know it's like we celebrate after that like my daughter is very hard and decluttering she's

not good at that you know so i'm with her and i'm like i ask her the questions i have no judgment right right yes i am totally in a field of observation and I'm saying to her, so this is the pack to give away. This is broken. This is perhaps you want to sell that on the vintage app. Right. Why not? Right. Perhaps this is to give to some of your friends. And this is the one you want to keep. Yeah. And like or is the one you want to keep yeah and like or is it something you want to store perhaps it's summer and winter clothes and so on and so i just give her the packages and and she just like throws things and if she's not sure i said well try it on or i ask you the question will you use that for the next year yeah not really so the fact that

somebody asked you that question will you use that or in the next summer if it's summer clothes and it's getting winter will you use that again not really okay then right but it's not going into judgment and people have stories with things like oh but i bought this in i don't know which country or I got and like Great. Is that perhaps something you want to treasure? Yeah, you want to keep it in your treasure box. Oh Yeah, I want to keep it in my treasure box. Okay, great So you just play with that, but it's good to have somebody with you

But sometimes as a mother it's not so easy when you have your children but you have to really stay in that state of mind one of the things that always help when you need to declutter because where does declutter where's clutter and chaos the air is stale it's like this heaviness yeah is to lavender mist or spread lavender mist first in that area when you do lavender it's like your brain the fog opens up and the air becomes more pure if you don't like lavender do pine or any other sense that you really love being in right everybody has their personal sense lavender is a good one and so as you're doing that and you're like oh the air is less stale it's easier to declutter and declutter not in the evening because it's very hard yeah

because you keep having this chaos in your mind and you won't sleep well so declutter i would say before four o'clock yeah okay. Okay. Good to know. I love that. I wanted to show you my room. Yes. My thought was, is I wanted to be really in that divine feminine energy. I love that. But I,

there's something first of all, that I don't like. And that is that woman is looking with her back to you. Yeah. So this is actually what I talked about in the movie, The Secret, that there was this man and he had this exact image everywhere. Yeah. So it's like somebody saying, I'm not sure if I'm interested in you.

Right. So people are not looking at you right they're looking away from you so that's not a good symbol for your clients and podcast listeners and viewers right so it's a woman that is not interacting with you yeah i'm bringing it back yeah please do because it's not a good thing i don't know which direction that is yes in relationship that's what i was thinking so you're saying i'm by myself yeah so if you're in business or in a bedroom you cannot have images like this you're single you're vulnerable you're you're nude right now nudes can be very nice but that is specific image is a no-no in a business and in a bedroom if you want to stay

single hey keep going oh my God I'm so grateful this is my other wall that's behind me yeah this whole shelf behind me is all of my ancestry i love that and that's in the south and the south is definitely that's a good direction for you to place things like this because the south is your wisdom direction yeah for you right for somebody else it's something else but for you it's wisdom so your wisdom direction. Yeah. For you, right? For somebody else, it's something else, but for you, it's wisdom. So your wisdom comes from your ancestors, too. Right? I love that. Yeah. So perhaps what you can do is keep a part of the bookcase because there are three bookcases. Yeah. Yeah. That an activated South. Yeah. Perhaps take one of the bookcase where there are

books on success and health and I don't know good things that connect with your business perhaps and put two of them behind you yeah and get rid of that so I love that we're just doing feng shui on the spot i divinely manifested you you did now there's one other thing i saw in your if you can go back to the bookcase yeah sure yeah so one of the things you have there is a big vase with dried up stems yeah oh yes yes it's like gold it shows that energy oh gosh right so remove that never have dead plants and dead flowers potpourri things like this or leaves in your house or in your especially where you work right because you're saying it's dead energy right yeah this is to be alive so you have a beautiful plant there that I love that right so

there's another side there's a plant that's very spiky like next to you back around again that is something we don't say that's positive because it's spiky it's attacking it's criticizing energy yeah so what about a bamboo because i have a bamboo a bamboo is the exception a bamboo is considered positive because it grows so fast but that plant that you have it's like all knives it's like long knives yeah so that will affect your well-being your health the harmony in the space yeah so get rid of dead leaves dead stems and spiky really super spiky plants that's amazing i i'm blown away and i am so grateful i cannot tell you how grateful i feel right now i mean i did not know any of this i was just thinking about directions and i was obviously i'm almost opposite of where i need to

be so yeah we're in a good place in the sense that you were able to see towards your relationship direction but you're not in a power position. Yeah. So for you, and I work with a lot of podcasts, I think I've done 500 podcasts over the years. And many times after a podcast, they asked me to show what I what they have to change. And I have a few that really blew up after my advice. But they never asked during and I love the fact that we're right away yeah and so dad is literally going to support you because I'm telling you I all the things I've done in my life and I became quite well known and you know have a lot of students have great social media I

have never used paid marketing well yeah if you're in the right flow yeah your home is supporting you and your business place is supporting you it's like I get all the time these opportunities it's like I'm in such a right flow. People say, well, how did you get from being a Belgian lawyer to become one of the best speakers in the United States on manifestation and on feng shui? And I'm like, I just use good feng shui. I love it. I love it. You're amazing.

I have had just such a great time with you and I've learned so much. I'm going to bring that painting back because I still have the receipt. Everything is new. Everything is new. So I and I'm going to get rid of that plant and those dead branches. Yeah. yeah clean up the hallway and also that closet that's in my health spot in my house well i have a busy day thank you well the thing is it doesn't have to all be done at once yeah first of all i would change your office because that's where the energy needs to be strong right then i would look at your closet to make sure your health is doing better right and look in every place especially your bedroom what is there right now in your health direction because at night our health needs to re-energize yeah so i was talking to somebody this week and they had the laundry basket in their health direction. Yeah. So they throw all the time their dirty clothes in their health direction.

Yeah. That's not a good symbol. Yeah. So tell me about your new book. Yeah. I'm super excited about that. So my new book is coming out now in October. Your Home is a Vision Board.

This is published by Hay House. And so what we talk about in the book is, first of all, a little bit of my story, how each home I use that home as a vision board. And now we go very practical using the app also for people to go step by step to activate their success, their money, their relationship, their health, their inspiration, and to really make sure that their home, they become aware of it. Yeah. Because sometimes people are not even aware they have put things up like you did this image of this woman, right? You're not even aware of it right until somebody

points it out so we kind of guide people through becoming aware that it's not just a vision board on paper and I'm actually teaching in the book how to create a vision board on paper that is based on their birthday yeah yeah because it's also even on paper you can do it based on the feng shui and then where to hang the vision board and then as they're making that paper vision board from there we're going to expand it to your home yeah so because sometimes people don't know where to start in their home so if they only write written down their goals and they're clear what are the best colors for it and then they can look at like oh south is where my inspiration is my wisdom is these are my goals

for my soul for what i want to do spiritually or energetically oh now i have that on paper let me go and see if it reflects back in the bigger space yeah the space where I live sleep and work in and so that is how we work into the home is your vision board so very practical so even for people that are not even aware of feng shui but are into the law of attraction or into manifestation this book is just an amazing book for them because they expand their view on what they have surrounded themselves with that has been affecting them 33% of their results so a lot of people hit a ceiling with a

fishing board or their goals and they're like why is it not happening right that's the exact question that people like john gray manor from mars women are from venus jack canfield marion williamson very well known author you know bob proctor the late bob proctor they were asking me for me i'm hitting a ceiling right and even the producer of the secret ronda byrne marie the secret is not working for me right but because the secret is also in your home yeah so the law of manifestation the law of attraction whatever is around you or subconsciously and we know your subconscious 95 of your manifestation

so it's not just the affirmations and all the goals and all the actions you take but everything around you has been influencing you and it's possible that has been telling a complete different story than the goals and the vision you have for yourself now i'm telling you who will win it's your home that will win because it's bigger it's stable it is there all the time so i have an image there and you have a plant there or you have a wrong nude women in front of you right um that is actually there 24 hours a day even if you're not there yet it's still in your quantum physics field it will be the one that will be the strongest message to the universe because if you

do an affirmation or you do a meditation is perhaps a few minutes a day or you're writing a new journal for 15 minutes the rest of your day it's it's not been activated but your home is activating you all the time I mean in needing to be intentional about everything you decide to put in your space yeah you know just bringing us a place of being more mindful and present yeah so magical yeah it is magical and it's that's what I have seen over the years you know of course I am a manifestation teacher and and I speak for you know big audiences about that and and they all get this aha moment because they go home and they're like they get to up and they're like oh my god of course things could manifest I

have in my bedroom five images of single women or men so i'm giving myself permission to stay single right so it's everything around you is a vision board and that's what the book is about well here's here's a good thing about this office where success is is exactly where this office is in when you look at my house oh good so you're in the east section of the house the far i'm yep i'm in right in the middle of my house in the east okay very good so exactly where it is yeah so that's amazing you know the girl who's turning your way for me and i'm so thankful when can i get this book when the 15th of october it comes out and i go to amazon you will see there's a lot of other books for me that you also then can purchase and um yeah i'm looking forward to uh see the changes in you, Shanna, and your family.
