“ Don ’ t dismiss the elements . Water soothes and heals . Air refreshes and revives . Earth grounds and holds . Fire is a burning reminder of our own will and creative power . Swallow their spells . There ’ s a certain sweet comfort in knowing that you belong to them all .”

Here are ways to enhance your feng shui by adding the earth element to your space :
1 . Paint your walls in earthy colours Colour is one of the easiest ways to bring the needed shift in the energy of your home or office . Earth feng shui element colours include yellow and brown , so feel free to paint your southwest living room with a warm sandy colour , go for a luscious latte , or maybe even use a rich terracotta in your bedroom .
2 . Decorate your space with natural elements Rock crystals or a crystal cluster look great as centrepieces . They also promote good feng shui and energy . A Himalayan salt lamp is also a fantastic way to bring the natural energy of earth to any spot in your home . It combines the energy of fire and earth , plus it cleanses the energy and air in your home .
3 . Frame up your favourite landscape pieces Bring a strong earth feng shui element with photographs or paintings . Artwork depicting a warm landscape is your best bet !
