Feeling Stuck? Check Out The “Magic Of 27 Things”

Do you occasionally feel absolutely stuck, like you don’t know what to do next or how to get out of your own way?

Feng Shui has a simple yet surprisingly effective method for getting you unstuck: just go around your space and move 27 things.

You can pick each thing up and put it down in place, or move things around, or best of all pick up 27 pieces of clutter and move them into the trash.

I just used this strategy to get myself going on a logy-feeling Monday.

I began by just picking things up and putting them back down, but before I knew it was on a roll, putting things away, throwing things out, and easily touching 27 items in no time flat.

It was fun to count to 27 (a powerful Yang number in Feng Shui) and when I was done I felt really refreshed — my Chi energy was moving

Do you have a great tip for getting unstuck?

4. This makes wonderful sense! When I feel overwhelmed I try to bribg myself to take that first step, since, the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step! The single act of going through the magazines to recycle, gets me moving into nearby areas. I will start my day this way tomorrow.
