When Grandma Dies

Jul 25th, 2008 by Addy | 0

Explaining death involves two issues. What is it, literally, and what happens to the person when she dies. The former question is best answered in a simple and honest manner - grandma’s heart had grown too weak to enable her to breathe, to see, think, or walk. With young children (below 7 or 8), no answer is going to feel very complete but understand that young children don’t need or want much information. Just a simple sentence to explain what happened. Avoid euphemistic explanations equating death with sleep (not only incorrect but likely to increase the child’s fear of sleep or darkness, which is a common, brief reaction to death anyway) or saying that God decided it was time for her to go to heaven. The latter makes God sound mean and capricious and increases the child’s sense of vulnerability.

Feng Shui - Improving Your Indoor Spaces

Jul 18th, 2008 by Addy | 0

If there are two elements of Feng Shui that can be modified and improved at your beck and call they are - the presence, quantity, visibility and health of indoor plants and the lighting of your home or living area.

Plants can fill spaces where qi is absent or hide sharp corners that generate the secret arrows of sha qi. Large plants will also slow qi down. It is important to choose what works well for your local area and follow your own cultural traditions when it comes to indoor plants. A flourishing plant, not a sick one, improves your Feng Shui, and what is considered a lucky choice by some cultures may be considered unlucky by others.
