The kitchen Is The Heart Of Any Home

Day 4-Cleanse

Your kitchen can help keep you calm, cool, and collected or it can distract you when its in disarray. Houses speak your language. Rooms take on your sensitivity, mood , attitude and spirit. And when you are feeling discouraged your four walls will comfort you because they will reflect back on you , remind you of your energy and personality. A house becomes your friend. My focus today is on the kitchen. Take the time this week to make your kitchen reflect your unique personality and sooth your senses. By infusing your kitchen with some of the natural, nourishing elements below, you'll have the energy to shine when it matters most.

Sight: Lots of live greenery - easy to care for plants such as lucky bamboo. A beautiful arrangement of Colourful flowers. Pictures of loved ones or artwork strategically displayed on your fridge.

Sound: Delicate wind chimes outside the kitchen window. Soothing music or a small water fountain. Early morning sounds from an open window

Taste: Fresh fruit in a wicker basket or ceramic bowl. A display of teas on your kitchen counter.
