Did you know your vanity holds energy?
Vanity Vibes Check in:
What does your vanity look like? What energy does it have? Is it messy and cluttered or is it well stocked and organized? Take note of how it looks and feels.
Is your vanity in good condition? One of the number one money leaks in Feng Shui is when we hold onto furniture that is in bad condition.
Do you have a plan to replace your vanity but can’t seem to find the money? Check your money corner for money blocks.
If you have a mirror on you vanity, make sure that you clean it regularly. Dirty glass clouds your reflection and your energy.

Place affirmations or beauty mantras on post it notes on your mirror. Repeat them daily as you get ready.
