A Simple Tip to Stimulate a Balanced Life

As I was getting ready to cook my scrambled eggs this morning, I was reminded of this simple tip to stimulate balance: Use all the burners on your cooktop! Use them in rotation starting with the burner on the far left. Continue in a clock-wise direction. How simple is that! Yes, I know, it's summer and you're not cooking indoors as much. Perhaps you hardly cook at all. Either way, as you use each burner in rotation, you stimulate a different part of your life. To make it very easy to do: place a favorite kitchen magnet near the burner to be used next. Why does using all the burners on your cooktop stimulate balance in your life? We use the cooktop, theoretically, to cook food to nourish our bodies. We need food to live. So the cooktop is a very important appliance, feng shui wise. When we apply the feng shui grid or bagua to the cooktop, a part of your life receives attention as you use it. These three examples of cooktops with Elemenza symbols shows you which part of your life is affected by each burner.

You may particularly want to activate Relationship or Wealth or Travel. That is to say, to use those burners more frequently. I urge you to resist doing so. It may help you to know that opposite areas support each other. That means, the Helpful People + Travel Area supports Wealth + Lifestyle. The Knowledge + Spirituality Area supports Relationship. And so on. Now that you are aware of how burner use can affect the balance of your life, as you use them in rotation with that intention, you welcome more balance in your life.
