Find ways to self-soothe. Draw upon your faith, get a massage, meditate, exercise, journal. Talk with a good listener, spend extra time with loved ones, maintain a healthy diet, stick to nurturing routines.

Remember you have a choice in discussions about war. You can choose to engage or not, knowing that everyone who has an opinion thinks theirs will make world better. End discussion on a positive note. You can connect; you can't always convince, and do you need to? Value being in relationship over being “right”.

Stay away from catastrophizing in your conversations, and in your mind. Words like "never" and "always" and "those people" are rarely true and usually not helpful. The truth is, we don't know what outcome will be.

Seek help if you need it. Counselors and psychologists can help you deal with your reactions triggered by past events. Coaches can help you stay focused on moving ahead with plans and goals.

Start a new personal adventure. Take a course, start a new hobby, focus on a personal or professional development issue, lose weight, get in shape. The way we make world better is one person at a time. This is a great time to forge ahead!

Create an attitude of gratitude. Keep a gratitude journal and each night before you go to sleep write down 5 things you are grateful for today. Focusing on gratitude rather than lack is one of most powerful things you can do to attract abundance vibration.

6. Language Clutter - The word 'want' means to desire without having! When you say you want something you are resonating with vibration of lack, rather than flowing with vibration of abundance. You are also complaining, at a subtle level. The Universe responds to requests, not complaints. Try using words 'choose' or 'desire' - they may sound strange at first, but it's worth it to create a flow of energy.

7. Does your prosperity area feel abundant? Ask yourself, what do I currently own that represents abundance to me now? Once you have cleaned and cleared clutter from your prosperity area, place this object there to create vibration you choose to attract.

8. Try this game. Place a bowl or container you love in prosperity area of your home or a room. Each day, take a coin, give thanks for abundance you already have, and abundance coming to you and place coin in bowl. The increasing coins represent your increasing abundance.

At some point when it feels right and bowl is nearing full, make a decision about what to do with that money and start over. This will work best once you have cleared clutter and cleaned area. And remember, what you focus on expands.

Clearing clutter is an important part of Feng Shui. Before you can create something new you need to make space for it. The changes you make in your environment are mirrored in your life and support you in making emotional shifts. Feng Shui can provide a welcome boost in living life you want.
