Hi Nancilee,
When I'm in the hospital, how can I use
feng shui to give my room an atmosphere that's more
conducive to healing and less of an institutional feel?
I looked in all my feng shui books and still am not sure
what to do. I bought a lavender scented candle and will
take lavender essential oil and cotton balls with me
(lavender really relaxes me). I have pictures of my
family packed also. What else can I do?
Love,
Iris P.

Dear Iris,
Going to the hospital can be an unsettling experience
and the more we can make the atmosphere familiar the
less daunting the experience will be. Your ideas are
great; pictures and a de-stressing scent
like lavender that works for you are great ways to
begin.
Other things that can make the difference between
feeling nurtured and feeling isolated are:
Your favorite sleep pillow
A familiar afghan to toss over the hospital blankets
A bed jacket, pajama top or shirt that you can put on
over the hospital gown
A place mat you love can be used on the hospital tray
Some favorite magazines, books
Your own pen and paper, and stationary
Remember the more familiar things around you the
better. On the chairs supplied for guests, you may want
to bring a throw pillow or fabric that can be tossed
over.
Helplessness is part of the problem in a speedy
recovery. The more you intervene in altering the room
(without, of course intervening with the hospital's
routine) the more you will feel in control. Here's to
you and getting well.
Fondly,
Nancilee
