Has Your ecoBowl Grown a White Velvety Surface?

If so, congratulations!  You are experiencing one more reminder that your ecoBowl is organic and made by Mother Nature herself.  The white velvety substance is called Bloom and is actually honey crystals.  If you prefer your ecoBowl shiny, simply empty and rinse with very warm water.  This will melt the crystals and Voila!

Here's a little more about honey and the amazing bees that make the sweet magic happen!

Key Principles of Honey Bee Feng Shui

HARMONY.

From the late 14th century, Middle English armonye, Old French armonie, Latin and Greek harmonia.  Meaning: agreement, means of joining, framework, agreement of feeling, concord.

As you know, Feng Shui, literally translated into english, is "wind-water." This is a shorthand, taken from this passage from Zangshu, or Book of Burial, by Guo Pu:

Qi rides the wind and scatters, but is retained when encountering water.

 The goal of Feng Shui is to create harmonious spaces by enhancing the positive flow of Qi, or Life Force, using Nature's elements.  This, in turn, creates harmony in our lives.  Remember the law: when your space changes, you change too - so best to pay close attention to the ways in which you, or others, change your space!  And, don't forget - harmony is a relationship, not a one-way street.  Harmony is not created at the expense of others, or at the expense of the earth.

The Element of Wood

In the Spirit Realm
meditation ecoBowl®

In Feng Shui, brown has a very stable and nourishing energy.  It has been strongly associated with the Wood element.

Wood element is considered important because it is both strong and bendable, and is identified with new life and new beginnings.  It is used extensively to "correct," or offset bad flow of Qi.

Your Own Personal Dance of Joy

Is there a place in your home or office that seems to suffer from a lack of proper energy flow?  When you walk through or sit in it, does this place feel stagnant, weighty, or just plain "stuck?"  One of the easiest ways to liven up a stale space is to infuse it with a boost of Qi courtesy of a living plant.
