In order to stay calm through the through the difficult or surprising things that life brings your way, you want to keep yourself grounded and centered. It wasn't until I started incorporating my morning rituals, affirmations and meditating/journaling that I noticed a HUGE change in my life.

Morning spiritual rituals offer a precious opportunity to start the day with intention, mindfulness, and gratitude. They empower individuals to nurture their inner selves, set a positive tone for the day, and cultivate habits that contribute to personal growth and well-being, ultimately enriching their overall quality of life.

The importance of spiritual rituals in the morning cannot be overstated, as they set the tone for the rest of the day and offer numerous benefits for one's mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

These rituals provide a sacred and intentional space for individuals to connect with their inner selves, higher consciousness, or their chosen spiritual path.

Engaging in these activities allows individuals to cultivate a sense of mindfulness and inner peace, helping them ground themselves before the hustle and bustle of daily life begins.

Furthermore, these rituals create a sense of routine and discipline, which can lead to improved self-discipline and time management throughout the day. They provide a reliable anchor point in a world often filled with chaos and unpredictability.

4 simple spiritual healing habits to start your day

01 | HARNESS THE POWER OF SPIRITUAL HOME CLEANSING:

I absolutely LOVE burning palo santo in my home and sometimes I will even sage. Every morning, I light it up, open a window and let the smoke fill the air. For me, it represents a clearing of my space.

Each morning when you wake up its a new day. Spiritually cleansing your space is like a physical representation of that. On Sundays, I like to do my sage ritual, its a bit of a longer ritual so I take longer to do that one. I loved this girls point of view on smudging, too.

02 | SET POSITIVE INTENTIONS

and say positive affirmations out loud every morning. Today will be a great day! I am going to win today! I'm ready to kick butt and accomplish my goals with effectiveness! What is for me, will not miss me! I could go on and on.

I have lists that I read from in the mornings. I know it sounds silly but its scientific. Thoughts become things, what you think about is where your energy goes. When I am around friends or family and they say negative things about themselves, I say "don't talk about my friend like that". 

Be the person that lifts yourself up so you can lift others up too.

This offers an opportunity to express gratitude for the gift of a new day and to set positive intentions. By acknowledging the blessings in one's life and visualizing the day ahead with positivity and purpose, you can enhance your overall outlook and increase your resilience in the face of challenges.

HOT TIP: While I am saying my positive intentions and affirmations, I also light a candle as I say them and using matches feels very romantic. This is a very impactful ritual because in Feng Shui, the fire element will activate, so when you speak your intentions into the flame they are activated energetically!

03 | ROMANTICIZE YOUR BATH / SHOWER TIME:

As you are getting ready for your day, making sure that your shower/bath time is as calming and inspiring as possible is such a beautiful way to start the day.

I am a sucker for beautiful products and packaging. I mean, I don't like anything that isn't pretty in my bathroom. There is something luxurious about bath salts and scrubs. I keep candles all over my bath tub and try to have fresh flowers in there too.

When I take a salt bath, I literally imagine the negative thoughts and stress of the day just wash away. If you don't like taking baths, learn how to turn your shower into a sanctuary.

Paying attention to self-care is the most effective way to stay productive and successful in your life. When you are tripped up by too much going on, you can't be operating as the best version of yourself so why waste your valuable time?

04 | Practice mirror work

Mirror work is one of the most powerful—and surprisingly emotional—spiritual habits you can add to your mornings. Popularized by the late Louise Hay, a pioneer in self-love and affirmations, mirror work involves looking deeply into your own eyes and speaking loving, empowering words to yourself. Louise often said, “The most powerful affirmations are those you say to yourself in front of a mirror,” because the mirror reflects back more than just your image—it reflects your relationship with yourself.

Most of us go through life being our own harshest critic, often without realizing how much self-judgment we carry. Mirror work turns that on its head. It invites you to meet yourself each morning with compassion and presence, just as you would greet someone you truly love. This isn’t about vanity—it’s about self-connection. When you lock eyes with your reflection and speak directly to yourself, you bypass the mind’s chatter and connect with your subconscious, where deep emotional shifts can occur.

Louise Hay often recommended starting with simple phrases like, “I am worthy of love.” “I am proud of who I am becoming.” or “I approve of myself.” At first, it might feel awkward, or even bring up unexpected emotions. That’s normal. With time and repetition, your self-talk begins to soften, your confidence strengthens, and you start carrying yourself differently—more open, grounded, and assured.

To make it easy, try adding mirror work right after brushing your teeth or as the final step in your skincare routine. Just 1–2 minutes of looking into your own eyes and speaking kindness can shift your energy for the entire day. Over time, you may notice what Louise Hay taught so beautifully: that how you speak to yourself becomes the foundation for how you live your life.

05 | DRESS UP FOR YOUR DAY ACCORDING TO YOUR VENUS ENERGY

This one I can speak from personal experience that it will completely change your life. Several years ago, when I started studying about and reading birth charts in depth, I learned that you inner goddess energy could be magnified outwardly by your Venus placement.

So, I began creating my signature style according to my Venus sign. You can see how to find what yours is and read more about that here. What I noticed about it was that my days were completely transformed. I began to feel more confident in my day because I felt like I was dressing more powerfully. Also, I noticed that people would respond to me differently, in a way that felt more positive and uplifting.

HOT TIP: In order to make the experience of getting up in the morning and enjoying dressing up, you want your closet to feel good. I have a very specific spiritual closet cleansing ritual you might enjoy too.

Feng Shui : 6 simple ways to instantly create a high vibrational home {podcast ep.}

If you’ve been looking for ways to improve the your home’s energy, look no further, this post will show you 6 simple ways to Feng Shui your sanctuary.

After being an interior designer for over 14 years, I’ve fallen in love with the art of living. I’ve studied the psychology of the home, feng shui practices and the emotional effects clutter has on our minds and bodies. The home is so much more than just a place to lay our head at night, its the environment in which we bloom.

Making sure that your home has a high vibration is essential to your emotional, physical and spiritual well being. I am going to share 6 ways you can transform your home into a sanctuary that creates a blissful life.

I recorded a podcast episode for you diving deeper into even more of these High Vibe Home tips, take a listen below.

Have you ever walked into a space and instantly felt calm, happy, and inspired — as if the air itself lifted your mood? That’s the magic of a well-balanced home, and it’s exactly what Feng Shui helps you create.

Feng Shui (pronounced fung shway) is an ancient Chinese practice that harmonizes your living environment with your inner life. It’s more than just rearranging furniture; it’s an intentional way to invite good energy, or Chi, into every corner of your home so you feel supported, abundant, and at peace.

In this beginner-friendly guide, you’ll learn exactly what Feng Shui is, how it works, and six simple tips to transform your space into a sanctuary of high-vibe energy — no complicated rules or expensive renovations required.

What is Feng Shui?

Feng Shui literally means wind and water. Rooted in ancient Chinese wisdom, it’s a practice that studies how energy flows through our surroundings — from the placement of doors and furniture to the colors, light, and elements we use.

Think of Feng Shui as acupuncture for your home: it helps clear blockages, balance energy, and create a natural flow that supports your health, relationships, prosperity, and happiness.

Key concepts in Feng Shui include:

• Chi: The life force or energy flow in all things.

• Bagua Map: A tool to see which parts of your home relate to areas of your life (like wealth, love, and health).

• Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water — each brings unique qualities to a space.

• Yin and Yang: The balance of calm and active energies.

How Feng Shui Can Help You

Feng Shui isn’t just an old tradition — it’s practical, powerful, and modern-friendly. When applied with intention, it can:

✨ Attract more abundance — by activating your money corner and clearing blocks to wealth.

🧘‍♀️ Create a calm, restful atmosphere — perfect for deep sleep and stress relief.

💖 Strengthen relationships — by nurturing spaces that foster love, connection, and warmth.

🌱 Boost your health and vitality — with cleaner air, more light, and a supportive environment.

🖥️ Increase focus and productivity — an uncluttered, balanced space helps your mind stay clear and inspired.

The best part? You don’t have to be a Feng Shui master — small, simple shifts make a big difference.

6 ways to transform your home using feng shui:

1. Tackle projects. Anything that needs to be completed or fixed, needs to be done now. Allowing unfinished projects to pile up around the home can be incredibly draining on your subconscious mind and allow for lingering doubtful thought patterns. It’s so important to finish up to do lists, go through that pile of unopened mail, hang that artwork you’ve been meaning to get to, etc. This can also show up as unfolded or undone laundry, messy closets, a piled up garage.

2. Balance the masculine & feminine energy in your spaces. When you are wanting to create harmony at home, you need to look at how each living space makes you feel. Today, many kitchens are really modern, with sleek lines and sharp edges. Which is very masculine energy. However, the kitchen represents warmth, love, connection, healing. You want your kitchen to feel warm and you may need to inject some feminine energy into your cooking space. Try adding wood bowls and cutting boards (earthy and warm) or even bring in color and luck with potatoes, lemons and oranges on display.

   In your living area you will want a balance of both feminine and masculine to bring harmony into your home. Masculine energy inspires activities and fun while feminine energy inspires nurturing, communication and love.

   Rooms that should be more feminine: bedroom, kitchen, bathrooms

   Rooms that should be more masculine: office, garage, laundry

   Rooms that should have a balance of both: dining room, living room, outdoor spaces

3. Update your entryway. If you have been feeling a little bored or stagnant in your life, you can make room for new opportunities to come to your life by cleaning and updating your entryway. Make sure you clean your front door, sweep the floor around and wipe off any dust or dirt. Revamp your entryway with crystals (I like selenite to purify the energy coming in and black tourmaline to protect your home’s energy). I have an entire e-book about 25 things to you canto your front door to attract more money and abundance, its FREE inside my High Vibe Home workshop. See all my e-books here.

4. Create balance in the bedroom. This one is major. Whatever is underneath your bed can tell you a lot about what you have going on in your life at the moment. I once knew a guy who had a lot of battles he was fighting in his life and when I went over to design his home, he had his guns and rifles stored under his bed. So, know that whatever you have under there, will have a literal effect on your life.

You also want to have your nightstands balanced, they don’t have to be exact but they need to be similar in size and shape. Same with the light on each side. You also want to make sure your nightstands aren’t filled with junk or random things, be intentional about what you keep next to you while you sleep.

IN EVERY ROOM YOU MUST Balance the Five Elements

A harmonious room has all five elements:

• Wood: Plants, wooden furniture.

• Fire: Candles, warm colors, sunlight.

• Earth: Crystals, clay pots, ceramic decor.

• Metal: Metal frames, wind chimes, metal bowls.

• Water: Fountains, mirrors, images of water.

Look around: what’s missing? Add a small touch to balance the vibe.

5. Know your birth chart. According to astrology, your main 3 placements are key in helping you know what elements will support you in living a blissful and happy life. You want to find our your Sun sign, Moon sign and Rising sign. You can book a birth chart readings here with me.

I’m a double Capricorn and an Aquarius moon…meaning I have heavy Earth and a little Air in my chart. So when I am surrounded by heavy, earthy objects and lots of windows and light, I feel supported. And to balance out my heavy yang energy, I need more warmth and comfort in my home. You want your home to calibrate with your natal energy.

6. Transform your bathroom into a self care sanctuary. Water is healing and every day you should take a bath or shower to cleanse off your personal energy from the day. This is key in creating a harmonious home.

You always want to be sure that you are giving yourself the royal treatment. What kind of products are you putting on your skin and body? Do you bath products show that you are taking exquisite care of yourself? Are you spending enough time in healing water or are you rushing through your grooming process?

Feng Shui Mistakes to Avoid

Even the simplest tips work best when you avoid common pitfalls:

🚪 Don’t block the front door: It’s your home’s main entry for fresh Chi.

🗑️ Fix what’s broken: Leaky faucets, squeaky doors, burnt-out bulbs — they all create stuck energy.

🛏️ No clutter under the bed: It affects your sleep and your subconscious.

🐢 Keep bathrooms tidy: In Feng Shui, drains can “flush away” good luck. Keep lids closed and doors shut.
