Hi there,

I recently bought and read the book Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui. I have not read Creating Sacred Space with Feng Shui.

My question is: Is there a specific order between the two? I have started the clutter clearing, and am feeling very motivated. Should I be clearing the clutter first or should I read about creating sacred space? I'm not sure what the difference is between the two.

I do intend to get the other book but thought I would just concentrate on clutter first. Does it matter which one comes first?

Thank you very much, Gloria Florence, California, USA

Karen's reply:

It isn't necessary to read both books but they are designed to complement each other and you certainly will get better clutter clearing results if you also do Space Clearing, and better Space Clearing results if you also do clutter clearing!

The ideal order is clutter clearing first and then Space Clearing, but if you have so much clutter that this is impractical then do Space Clearing first, then clutter clearing. Space Clearing removes the stagnant energy that collects around clutter, so makes it very much easier to clear.

If you do it this way round, I recommend that you do Space Clearing again after clutter clearing, with the focus on what you aspire to in your life now that you are no longer burdened by your junk. It's a bit more work doing it this way but if you have a lot of clutter it's better than being immobilized by it and never doing anything at all!
