WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:04.320 Karen. Over the last year or so, we've learned how everything is made 2 00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:07.719 up of energy, right, so our bodies, the space we live in, 3 00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:13.679 the food we eat everything right rightes okay? And depending how freely or 4 00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:17.600 how blocked that energy is, we also know it can either cause a lot 5 00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:21.760 of challenges in your life or it can make them infinitely better. Right. 6 00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:27.679 But I've always asked myself what causes these blockages and how can something as simple 7 00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:32.000 as like relocating a couple of things in your home or your office help to 8 00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:38.159 ease things like happiness, prosperity, calm. Well, that's what we're talking 9 00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:42.679 about today with national best selling author of the books I'm With Your Stuff. 10 00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:46.399 Change your life and make a shift, change your life on this episode of 11 00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:54.039 The Skeptic Metaphysicians.

I'm so excited to be here. 33 00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:53.560 You hear a lot about Fung Shway, and there's a lot of misconceptions 34 00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:57.639 about what it is, what it's not, how it actually works. So 35 00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.639 let's just start from the very beginning. What is function? I describe it 36 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:07.520 as a method of mindfully arranging your environment so that it consistently supports you in 37 00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:13.199 the life of your dreams and where you're going, as opposed to because it's 38 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.319 either supporting you or not, whether you are mindful about it or not. 39 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:20.599 So instead of your life being willy nilly or random, you can set your 40 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.560 intentions by well, I'm just going to say, you know how, there's 41 00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:28.240 that saying where people say dress for the job you want, not the job 42 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:31.280 you have. Just think of me as the person who dresses your environment for 43 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:35.599 the life you want, not the life you have, and you'll get the 44 00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:38.960 whole concept. Can you come over to our house now, please? That 45 00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:44.400 needs your help? Badly. Bert Soule Consultation especial for the members. I 46 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.280 will talk all about that, but let's dive a little deeper into it. 47 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:51.639 So it's easy to say, right, you can relocate a couple things in 48 00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:55.240 your house and suddenly everyone's happy. How how does that work? Well, 49 00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:00.639 it's basically a quantum physics situation here, you know. And now you're talking 50 00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:06.199 about language. I've spoken on this Stanford campus to all of the professors and 51 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.280 they were a little bit skiddish because I guess there's kind of like a couple 52 00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:12.800 alpha dogs of the professors, you know. And I was like, ooh, 53 00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:17.399 tough crowd, right, And then the head of the physics department stood 54 00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.519 up and he said, I just want everybody to know that, according to 55 00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:26.079 you know, whatever, like from a quantum physics point of view, everything 56 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:29.680 she said so far completely checks out. And then the crowd kind of was 57 00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:31.839 with me. I was like, ehw tough crowd at Stanford. But they 58 00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:35.959 if a quantum physicist from Stanford gives me the stamp of approval, I'm like 59 00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:42.160 yay. So it's all about, you know, the laws of energy. 60 00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:46.439 Everything is energy. There's no there's only one thing energy, that's that's what 61 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.800 we're dealing with here. So it's a way of organizing that in your three 62 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:54.279 dimensional spaces. Kind of like when you plant a plant and you want it 63 00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.800 to flower. You don't just, I don't know, work on the flower. 64 00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:00.720 You give it more better soils, unlight, water, all the things 65 00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:06.160 not touching the plant or the seed at all. You're just manipulating the environment 66 00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:10.959 so that it is more conducive to blooming. So I want you to grow, 67 00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:15.480 bloom and thrive, versus will deplete or die. And it's just all 68 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:20.720 cells are doing that pattern from our microbiology on up. And there is a 69 00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:25.480 pattern to the universe. When light goes through a prism, the color of 70 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:30.439 the rainbows are, it's a certain pattern. So there are patterns in three 71 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:34.519 dimensional space that I have had the luxury of spending several decades. Ah I 72 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:38.319 don't even want to say how many of these days. But if you go 73 00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.120 into people's homes, they tell you what their problems are, and you see 74 00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:46.600 their environment enough, you will know the patterns. It's kind of like I 75 00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:48.759 think about a doctor. You go, I got these rush on my arm 76 00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:50.639 and they go, oh, it's masles, and you're like, oh, 77 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.160 my God, of all the choices, how do you know? And they're 78 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:56.480 like, I've seen it a million times. I've luckily been all around the 79 00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.600 world looking at people's stuff, hearing the problems. And now I'm to the 80 00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:04.759 point where quite often I can tell people what they've got in their house just 81 00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:10.399 by them complaining or telling me what their problem is. Because I have I 82 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:15.600 am a pattern seer. So orry then people call me detective home detective. 83 00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:20.240 I root out the issue of what is what makes you have that unwelcoming thing 84 00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:23.560 in life? Why do you have it? Your next door neighbor doesn't, 85 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:26.920 et cetera. Why does this neighborhood have it? The next door neighborhood doesn't, 86 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.079 you know? I look at the micro patterns all the way up to 87 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.560 the cosmosis, so everything's patterns and that makes perfect sense to me. The 88 00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:39.040 patterns the energy to flow, and will see here's the proof. This is 89 00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:42.560 why I get so cranky when the house is messy. It drives me nuts, 90 00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:45.879 like my mood starts to shift and after like two or three days, 91 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.439 I mean, for lack of better terms, I'm super bitchy. And that's 92 00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:53.759 just because stuff is everywhere and it drives me crazy, and you know you've 93 00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:58.560 never seen happy for the bitcho meter was like a direct reflection of the state 94 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.519 of the top of my desk, Like that literally would be if I would 95 00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.600 leave it a mess and come in the next morning. You know, it 96 00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:09.680 was just I'd start off on the wrong foot. Yeah, absolutely, with 97 00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.199 my car gets missy and I'm not a neat freak, so it'll like slowly 98 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.639 accumulate. But once it gets past that point, it's bad. It's see 99 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:18.120 there all right, all right, so it will hang on, hang on 100 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:23.240 a second, because before I met you, I was a mess by my 101 00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:27.079 house was a mess. I was a I was the epitome of the bachelor, 102 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.519 right, My my apartment was not was not a date ready, let's 103 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:33.600 just put it that way. But but my life was great. I was 104 00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:38.879 making great money, great friends, a lot of fun. So how he 105 00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:43.879 was disconnect You were sad and lonely and love was not in your life. 106 00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.199 Well, I think that's a conversation bad decisions. I think it's a conversation 107 00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:49.959 we had to have outside of the microphone. But I know all those patterns 108 00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:55.519 just like I love it, I lo you. So then how can how 109 00:07:55.560 --> 00:08:00.639 can you explain that that disconnect there. Yeah, well, depending on the 110 00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:07.240 actual complaint. So if somebody says opportunity never finds me, or I've just 111 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.360 been so unhealthy, I cannot recharge, I cannot gain energy, It depends 112 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:16.439 on the exact complaint tells me where the problem is in their house. And 113 00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:20.680 if they say opportunity never knocks on my door, you know, I know 114 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:26.279 it's that from the trip from the street to the actual threshold of the front 115 00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.079 door, that would be where I would go look as opposed to you know, 116 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:31.759 some people that know a little bit about Functuai. You know, like 117 00:08:31.799 --> 00:08:35.360 this is my book and it's got the little bogwah area around For those of 118 00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:39.399 you who know about the bagwah, people just go right to that area And 119 00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.600 I'm like, well, you're the type of person. You're the type of 120 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.840 person that forget the bagwah. You don't even have enough energy coming in, 121 00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.519 you know. So just like our body, we put air, food, 122 00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:52.360 water, you know, that keeps our bodies sustained in our mouth. The 123 00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:58.679 architecturally intended front door is the mouth of chi or the mouth that would invite 124 00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:03.679 the energy to come into for prosperity, for health and relationships, and you 125 00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:09.559 could have a great prosperity area but a missing relationship area. Or when you're 126 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:13.960 talking about making bad decisions, that's the front left part of the house. 127 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.720 Something might be weak there. Maybe you had the bar you're picking like a 128 00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.519 bachelor, a picture of the bar all set up over there on the front 129 00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:26.480 lap or something like that. That would be like clouding your decision making skills. 130 00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:31.399 It gets quite comical. It's kind of like that where somebody says, 131 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:33.519 oh my god, my love life it's in the toilet, and I of 132 00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:35.960 course they're going to have a bathroom in the back righthand part of the house 133 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.840 because of the way they describe it. We describe our lives in architectural terms, 134 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:43.840 like I'm running into a brick wall with everything I do. My life 135 00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:48.759 is in the toilet. You know. We say things that are architectural breaking 136 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:52.080 the glass ceiling is about women getting ahead of the workplace, but a weird 137 00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:56.679 architectural term. And then we personify our house. Oh my house needs a 138 00:09:56.720 --> 00:10:01.759 facelift, you know. Like so it's very interm messed from a languaging point 139 00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:05.120 of view. So ten minutes with me coming into your house as the functional 140 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:11.879 consultant. I listen to the words you tell me, and then I go 141 00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:15.919 find it because you just gave me all the clues to what's going on that 142 00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.320 needs changing in your house. Is it like a river? I picture like 143 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:22.639 energy that you hear about acupuncture, for example, and you put the needles 144 00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.039 in and I'm wondering if you were going there, Karen. But they put 145 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.200 needles in your body so that it helps redirect energy that's flowing through your bodies. 146 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.240 That's the same general principle with func shuai. Like a river of energy 147 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:39.000 flowing and then you put a cactus in the middle, makes it all go 148 00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:41.519 to hell because it's you know, the guy got to flow around it, 149 00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:43.679 and now the needles kind of hold it back. Is that kind of how 150 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:48.799 it works. I would say that traditional Chinese medicine and funk shuai speak very 151 00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:52.919 much the same language. I might often tell my clients go to a TCM 152 00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:58.080 practitioner get their diagnosis, and they'll say something like, you know, kidney 153 00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:03.000 yin deficient. And if they get that TCM diagnosis, then I can actually 154 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.080 do that same thing to their house, and I would match what the what 155 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:11.759 the acupuncturist or Chinese orb Letto, you know TCM practitioner would be doing. 156 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:16.879 It's a direct correlation. So this is a science, right, This is 157 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:22.519 something that is for sure like tried toue proven that kind of thing. It's 158 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:26.000 not just wishful thinking. Yes, you are a product or environment, like 159 00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:28.720 it or not. I mean, I don't know if you know of a 160 00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:33.759 Bruce Lipton's work. He's a cellular biologist and he watches under you know, 161 00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.360 nano microscopes or whatever, the cells and their reproductive in their you know, 162 00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:43.879 nucleus and blah blah, and he boils and it's it's kind of is funny 163 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:48.600 in my world because he boils. It all down to the two things that 164 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:56.840 affect cellular health is number one, your environment and number two your perception of 165 00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:03.600 your environment. So what could be very annoying to Karen could be not annoying 166 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.960 at all to you. Your perception of your environment is just as impacting as 167 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:15.159 the actual physical environment. So that's where we can get into the subconscious and 168 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.240 all of the things of you know, oh that picture reminds me of my 169 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:20.200 ex or whatever, and you're just like, Okay, that doesn't work for 170 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:24.039 you. But that person has no connection to that as a perceiving that as 171 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.840 a negative picture. You know, they could have it, but it's no 172 00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.279 longer. You know, you've just voted it off the island of your house, 173 00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:35.919 you know. So the perceptions are key. I want to know, 174 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:41.720 is there something that is super common that everyone, well not everyone, but 175 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:43.720 so many people do that they shouldn't do, Like I've heard a mirror by 176 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.799 the entrance way. Is there one thing that you see constantly that you're like, 177 00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:56.320 Nope, change that, boy, there's so many The one I would 178 00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:01.399 say that, well, besides clubs or which you just talked about, like 179 00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:03.840 if you can't even get energy in, you know, if you're wading through 180 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:09.360 the morass of stuff and you're languaging, I'm so stuck and I can't get 181 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.759 ahead and I can't move forward, like you know, you've definitely got something 182 00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:18.120 blocking physically. But I would say that the next thing would be having a 183 00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:24.519 solid wall behind you where you're sleeping and where you're officing. So your office 184 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.759 desk should not have a window behind it behind you you have behind your office 185 00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:33.919 chair or your headboard should not have a window or door either one both, 186 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.000 so your tear back where you spend the most amount of time. Wherever that 187 00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:41.000 is. Maybe it's at the dining room table because that's where you be jewelry 188 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.879 for a living or something like that. I don't know. Wherever you spend 189 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.480 the most amount of time affects you the most. So let's get those spots. 190 00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:52.639 So a functionally consultant would tear about the bed because that's usually like one 191 00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:56.759 third of your twenty four hour day, and then where you're officing another third 192 00:13:56.759 --> 00:13:58.559 of your twenty four hour day. So if I can get your daytime, 193 00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:05.480 works space and your bed space empowered, healthy, et cetera, then you 194 00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:07.919 know, it's kind of job pretty you know, checked off because the other 195 00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:13.759 time when you're driving and randomly at shopping in whatever, so that would be 196 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:16.039 you know, I would say the top thing. And most people that they 197 00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:20.840 want to stick their desk up against a wall and they're facing a wall and 198 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:22.600 they're like, I try, I'm running into a brick wall with everything I 199 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.840 do. I'm like, well, there's the wall, let's move your desk. 200 00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:31.120 Or or when there's a window behind you or a door or something behind 201 00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:33.360 you. You know, people don't like to be in the cubicle. It's 202 00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:37.879 a very subservient like, oh, who's back there? I can't oh eat 203 00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.759 us, And so we want to make sure that you're just like, come 204 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:43.360 in, sit down, talk to me. You know, have a seat, 205 00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.399 You've got command over the over the room. And so if there's a 206 00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:52.919 window behind a children's headboard. Above the children's head board, they're the kids 207 00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.799 that are getting bullied at school. They're they're in a forced vulnerable position. 208 00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.639 And adults that just get picked on by the foss or whatever, or with 209 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.240 the window behind you, they might say the complaint, well, I didn't 210 00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:11.000 see that one coming, or nobody's got my back. They stabbed me in 211 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:16.519 the back. All these things where their back is exposed equals their back being 212 00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.679 exposed in a physical environment with a window behind the headboard or behind their office 213 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:26.039 deps. This is fascinating and truly fascinating. I'm thinking back of all the 214 00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:30.919 like behind our couch is a big window. Right. I think we're good 215 00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.000 in the bed. I think we're good in the office. Although my office 216 00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:35.200 chair does face the wall, it faces a corner. There is a window 217 00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:39.720 next to it, so it's not so bad. But you don't think about 218 00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:48.440 things like that being so influential in how your life goes. But it makes 219 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.279 sense when if you have energies they're clashing or it's just not flowing through. 220 00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:54.639 That all makes sense. But did you have a question care? Yes, 221 00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.440 so I'm wondering now. Sometimes you live in situations where you have no choice. 222 00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:00.759 Like our living room of three walls, only one of them is a 223 00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:03.879 fireplace, and then two of them have bod windows, so we have to 224 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:07.720 put the couches again with the windows to our back, and we're there a 225 00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:08.879 lot. We both work from home, so sometimes I'll be sitting on the 226 00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:12.840 computer or working from there. Is there something that you can do when you 227 00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.000 don't have that option of not having a window behind you. That is an 228 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:21.799 excellent question. Karen Ensley and Karen Carter will ask you to answer that for 229 00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:26.840 us right after this. Well, you asked for it, then you ask 230 00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:30.879 for it again, then you demanded it. Well, finally we have heard 231 00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:36.559 you. The Skeptic Metaposition Merchandise store is now open with really fun show logo 232 00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:40.840 designs on things like shirts and mugs to notebooks, phone and laptop cases and 233 00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:45.120 everything in between.

Help us spread the word about the show. 238 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:11.359 Get your skeptic medahsicition merch right now skepticmdevsition dot com slash store And now back 239 00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:15.640 to the Skeptic metaphysicians. Sometimes you live in situations where you have no choice. 240 00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.920 Like our living room. We have three walls, only one of them 241 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.880 is a fireplace, and then two of them have big windows, so we 242 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:25.759 have to put the couches again with the windows to our back, and we're 243 00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:27.079 there a lot. We both work from home, so sometimes I'll be sitting 244 00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:30.680 on the computer or working from there. Is there something that you can do 245 00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.720 when you don't have that option of not having a window behind you, And 246 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:38.599 that's what a FUNCTIONWOI consultant does. We try to position you in the best 247 00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:44.279 of the lots. You know, there is no perfect functuoid house. You 248 00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:49.720 have to create the best of what you've got, and sometimes, given my 249 00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:55.599 client that is the chemo. But you know whatever. I'm like, we 250 00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:59.119 don't have time. No, you're moving, you know, Like I will 251 00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:02.759 shift everything, like depends on how much time I've got to turn it around. 252 00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:06.079 Although for those of you who have paid attention to me earlier, it's 253 00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:12.599 a quantum world and we can get things immediately. But I'm just you know, 254 00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:18.480 trying to shift the energy in such a way. And if I don't 255 00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:21.079 have, you know, I'm like, Okay, there's a window there, 256 00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.839 there's a door there. Given the choices I have, like my hierarchy of 257 00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:27.240 this is better than that, that's better than that. That's the worst. 258 00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:32.119 I will avoid that at all costs. It's called the death position, you 259 00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:37.319 know. So we don't want that en and so we're always trying to get 260 00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.559 people. And that's where those traditional functual cures come in. And that was 261 00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.839 you know, I liked your title using the word skeptic. I was rather 262 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:48.759 skeptic when I got into this. I'm a landscape architect. I had my 263 00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:53.960 own design firm. Never was intending to change into an author or a best 264 00:18:53.960 --> 00:19:00.000 selling author or worldwide trap whatever, and I needed to learn functually to get 265 00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:03.480 a project in Honolulu because China Airlines owned the property, and they said, 266 00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:06.640 everybody needs to know funk Shue to be on the design team. And that 267 00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:11.079 was in the late eighties, early yeah, around eighty nine or so. 268 00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:17.839 There. Nobody knew fukshui from anything back then, and so I was desperate 269 00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:21.000 enough, you know, the recession of that whatever. I'm like, yeah, 270 00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:22.799 yeah, I know funk Shway and I'm like, oh my god, 271 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:26.119 where am I going to learn from Shways? And then I learned these things 272 00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:29.920 about a crystal in a mirror, and I'm like, come on, and 273 00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.720 you know, how can that do anything? I had to go all the 274 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.880 way back to the law of reflection, the law of refraction. I had 275 00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:41.599 to learn the science behind those squirrely little cures or else it just seemed like 276 00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:45.440 come on, you know, I just literally had to. I was the 277 00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:48.759 skeptic myself, and I went back to the laws of reflection and refraction and 278 00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:53.279 all those things to make it make sense so I could suggest those cures with 279 00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:59.079 a straight face basically. So that's kind of how I got into it. 280 00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.880 Love that you started right off the top with the scientific aspect of it, 281 00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:07.200 the quantum mechanics aspect of it, because you are speaking my language, so 282 00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:11.440 that helps me right away level set like, Okay, we're not talking about 283 00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:18.920 some WOOO stuff. We're talking about something that pragmatically there's an explanation behind it, 284 00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:22.240 So then I can put all the skepticism behind and I'll talk about what 285 00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.160 functually really is and how it actually can be put to you. So thank 286 00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:30.480 you for that. Now you mentioned a little bit earlier something that I have 287 00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:34.640 no idea what it means, and probably most of the people listening have no 288 00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:38.440 idea what it is. But Karen Ensley, do you know what a bogwa 289 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:45.240 is? Well, no, I don't. Okay, we played it off 290 00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:51.519 really well, but I'm actually glad you don't, because most people read my 291 00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:53.799 book it's been around since y two K. They believe it or not. 292 00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:59.880 Why and remember why two K? Yeah, that worked out really well for 293 00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:06.920 everyone. Ages me greatly. But most people that read my book they it's 294 00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:11.240 divided up into the areas of life, which is the Bogwa map, and 295 00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:17.440 most people get so hung up on that Bogwa map they forget why they're doing 296 00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:18.599 what they're doing. They just put a bunch of stuff in each one of 297 00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:22.000 the areas of life. And I'm like, you can do that but like 298 00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:27.839 the TCM practitioner that's using six needles instead of one in every possible hole of 299 00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:32.640 your whole entire meridian system. You know, you just do the things that 300 00:21:33.079 --> 00:21:37.720 will create enough shift to get you moving to that next area of life, 301 00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:42.480 as opposed to throwing your life into chaos. I have seen people, and 302 00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:47.279 I've learned as a functionally consultant, I used to do that. I'm like, 303 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.240 let's do it all, and then they're like, life goes, you 304 00:21:51.279 --> 00:21:55.200 can there's a smoother way to do it. You know, I'm picking your 305 00:21:55.319 --> 00:22:00.960 life. The trajectory of your life based on your house is in this one 306 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:04.960 particular direction, and I am now you're telling me I want to change this 307 00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:08.359 and this and this and this about my life. I'm picking that train up 308 00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:12.119 and I'm putting it on another tack going in that direction. And in between 309 00:22:12.160 --> 00:22:18.119 there sometimes a little dust gets kicked up and a little chaos ensues, and 310 00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.920 some things might break in your house. Like it's kind of like I consider 311 00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:26.200 them the weak links of the chain that could not hold the energy for that 312 00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:27.640 new life of yours. They break, you fix them, and now you're 313 00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:33.319 off and running. So I you know, it's the law of doing the 314 00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:38.440 least to getting the most result, kind of like an acupuncturist. So most 315 00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:42.680 people read my book and they're like power through every part of their house and 316 00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:47.079 it just is a little chaotic. So I'm going to recommend. I'm gonna 317 00:22:47.079 --> 00:22:51.240 say, don't learn about the bagua yet. Just listen to your language, 318 00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:55.279 listen to how you complain, and go find the antidote. People say I 319 00:22:55.359 --> 00:22:57.000 just can't get a handle on that, I go, is your doorknob loose 320 00:22:57.079 --> 00:23:02.680 or your handles loose or your indors because they just said handle you see it, 321 00:23:02.799 --> 00:23:04.279 like, I'm so drained all the time. I'll be checking your plumbing. 322 00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:11.319 We complain in architectural terms. We're telling the very tales of what's going 323 00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:15.559 on in our environment. So maybe that's when people are really happy. They 324 00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:18.960 say they're on cloud nine and they're not confined by architecture. There you go. 325 00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:22.480 I speak on cruise ships a lot. I travel the world. I'm 326 00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:27.000 actually a home free person, digital complete, digital nomad for over three years. 327 00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:33.960 And because I have experimented with every part of FUNCTU. I did my 328 00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:37.759 house as watery as you can, all the five elements water wood, fire, 329 00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.839 earth, metal. I've done my house all fiery, all medally, 330 00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:44.920 all watery, just to see what the heck happens to me. I'm like, 331 00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:47.839 oh yeah, it's true. Balance is better, you know, like 332 00:23:47.880 --> 00:23:52.680 whatever, And I am currently because of the declutter conversation. I say to 333 00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:57.559 my clients, space equals opportunity. So when you are when you've got something 334 00:23:57.839 --> 00:24:00.960 taking up space in your house, it can only be that thing there. 335 00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:04.079 It is that thing, it's taken up that volume of space. But if 336 00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:07.799 you take it away, a lot of people mentally go, I've got nothing, 337 00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:14.680 and I'm like, no, you are filling that space with infinite potential. 338 00:24:15.359 --> 00:24:18.640 So the reframe of filling your house because a lot of people have this 339 00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:26.079 no thing fear of nothingness, no stuff, you know, so looking at 340 00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:33.119 what is the maximum infinite potential and this comes back to you like being homeless 341 00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:37.359 or home free? Right, I choose to be home free because I am 342 00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:44.119 experimenting with infinite potential. I being absolutely free of stuff. I'm a little 343 00:24:44.119 --> 00:24:48.960 Gandhi out there right, I don't have much of anything, and I say, 344 00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:53.200 space equals opportunity. Let's see how far it goes. I'm riding it. 345 00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:56.079 I'm experimenting. I want to tell my clients, this is how far 346 00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:57.920 I think you need to go, because I've gone all the way to the 347 00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:03.559 edge and my life is crazy good, you know, traveling the world. 348 00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.720 Maybe other people wouldn't want to do that as their future. But my friends 349 00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.599 and family, they're like, you just need a house, you just need 350 00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:15.559 a base, you need just one. And I'm like, that sounds kind 351 00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:18.440 of limiting to me now that I'm on the other side, very odd. 352 00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:23.240 I'm in a unicorn world right now where not many people can relate to my 353 00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:26.200 home free. Oh there's a lot of digital nomads out there kind of doing 354 00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:30.079 it, but the average person is just like, no, no, can't 355 00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:33.400 do that. But I'm like, you know what, I'm here to tell 356 00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:36.720 you. The problem is, you know, the problem is. The problem 357 00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:42.440 is too much freedom is almost analysis paralysis. Just like Yin and Yong when 358 00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:47.359 Yin, when Yin turns into young, it's not the opposite things, two 359 00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:51.599 different worlds. It's the opposite ends of one thing. And that tai Chi 360 00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:56.480 symbol of Yin and Yang, it's one thing, and I have gone to 361 00:25:56.759 --> 00:26:00.039 complete freedom to now I'm like, oh my god, I could go to 362 00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:04.200 Paris, I could go to Morocco. I could. I'm stuck because now 363 00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:08.359 I'm so free, and it's right back. The yn just comes right back 364 00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:11.920 into it. You know, you cannot you cannot have one without the other. 365 00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:18.240 And so I've gone to the nth degree of spatial freedom. That's like 366 00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:22.720 it worked when they gave us an unlimited amount of vacation time and then we 367 00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:29.680 went yay, unlimited, never go. Then we got paralyzed, like I 368 00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:33.359 can't take any vacation time because I don't I don't know how much I'm supposed 369 00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:34.920 to take or not supposed to take. And it completely freaked me out. 370 00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:41.480 But I guess I gotta take issue with something you said. My favorite movie 371 00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:45.400 in the world taught me that the fifth element, Madam, is love, 372 00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:52.720 not metal. Just to be getting clear, yes, yes, Lee Lou 373 00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:55.720 told me it was love, and that's what I'm going with. But I 374 00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:57.920 know and the Native Americans have the four so with air. So yeah, 375 00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:04.319 yeah, it's it's literally we're talking about one thing, energy and the way 376 00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:08.160 we just have to use language to describe, you know. I need a 377 00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:12.880 little more upward moving, you know, and there's just we just need to 378 00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:18.359 break it down. It's the five elements but it's really one energy and it's 379 00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:21.319 their movement. It's the way it morphs into It's kind of like the rock 380 00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:27.000 paper scissor game. So it's yeah, it's just a languaging issue. We 381 00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:30.920 need to take a quick break, but we'll be right back with more amazing 382 00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:41.279 conversation on the skeptic metaphysicians. Earlier on in the conversation, you mentioned the 383 00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:44.599 word results, and not to kind of change a subject, but kind of 384 00:27:44.599 --> 00:27:48.200 to change a subject. Once you come in and people start making these changes, 385 00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:52.200 are the results slow or do they suddenly see results? Like what can 386 00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:59.160 someone expect? I've seen everything. I've seen the gamut from the Just to 387 00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:02.200 show how long I've been doing this. Oh my god, this thori is 388 00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:04.200 so dated. I don't know why it even popped in my head. I 389 00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:08.000 was in downtown Chicago with a guy who was working on a deal for like 390 00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:14.079 nine years, some like Motorola or something like that, I can't remember, 391 00:28:14.799 --> 00:28:19.240 and his fax machine was sitting over there. Just to show you the of 392 00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:25.400 this story. So this was pre white two K. This is no cell 393 00:28:25.480 --> 00:28:32.599 phone, and you know Beeber's pager, I don't know telephone, and he 394 00:28:32.759 --> 00:28:36.319 had all this stuff by the front door, and he had boxes of books 395 00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:38.319 that he wrote or something like that, and so I just said, you 396 00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:41.559 know what, let's just can I use the hallway for a bit. I'm 397 00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:44.359 just going to show you the volume of stuff that you can have in this 398 00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:47.160 house, and I'm just going to set the remaining out in the hallway for 399 00:28:47.240 --> 00:28:48.799 now. So we started moving this stuff and I'll like putting it in front 400 00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:52.880 of the other guy's door whatever, I'm getting it away from his space. 401 00:28:52.400 --> 00:28:57.359 And while we were doing that, the facts comes through of the signed deal 402 00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:03.240 and he's like, you know, I love that dick today. Were you 403 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:07.880 expecting or he goes, no, nine years I've been working on that deal. 404 00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:11.640 No, like today was nothing special. Now it's getting a little harder 405 00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:15.359 for me to kind of wrap my head around that. That just seems like 406 00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:18.240 magic to me, Like it this is this is a legit story. Yeah, 407 00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:22.960 yep, yep. And I mean I've well, one of my favorite 408 00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:26.000 stories was here in Los Angeles. I'm in California now, and she had 409 00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:30.759 frozen shoulders, both frozen shoulders, so she could move her hands to her 410 00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:34.559 elbows, but she could not move from her shoulder to her elbow. Was 411 00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:37.880 just kind of locked by her side, so she had like pulleys to get 412 00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:41.960 on. It was like a strange situation. And I went to her house 413 00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:47.680 and she did have a sloping ceiling above her bed. She had window behind 414 00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:51.880 her bed, and the energy was going straight in the front door and straight 415 00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:55.000 out the back window because it had an ocean view, which is kind of 416 00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:59.039 like diarrhea of the house, you know, like energy in, energy out. 417 00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:03.119 So so I did a few basic things, and I didn't feel like 418 00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:06.119 I hit the nail on the head. She was the first person I ever 419 00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:07.920 felt guilty about taking their money. I was leading and going, oh, 420 00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:12.279 that was a pretty serious thing. And I did the basics. I did 421 00:30:12.359 --> 00:30:15.559 the things that you're supposed to do. But once again, come on. 422 00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:22.160 And so she told me that she told me that the surgeons either wanted to 423 00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.640 just knock her out and go and like rip it and get it going because 424 00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:30.000 her physical therapy. She's been doing physical therapy for three years and she wasn't 425 00:30:30.039 --> 00:30:32.960 getting anywhere. And she says, I just do not want to have these 426 00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:36.440 surgeries. I beg you, you know, it's like this is I call 427 00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:38.319 it last chance, Karen. You know, I've tried it all let's try 428 00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:41.680 functui. You know, it's like absolutely desperate people come to me because they 429 00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:45.240 don't have anywhere else to go, and I'm usually the one that turns it 430 00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:48.240 the other way. So she I'm like, I don't know if I did 431 00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:52.559 it. And then about three months later, I was doing a workshop in 432 00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:56.720 La and she's in the back of the room. Hi. She walks in 433 00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:59.640 the back door and I go, hold on, I go, oh my 434 00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:00.960 god, did you have the surgery? What happens? She's like, no, 435 00:31:02.039 --> 00:31:04.839 it just started loosening up as soon as and then she goes it just 436 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:10.839 undid itself in three months. That to me, I personally couldn't believe that 437 00:31:10.920 --> 00:31:15.720 one because I was like stuck for three years and in three months, you 438 00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:18.160 know, so wow, I hold up. You avoid surgeries and things, 439 00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:23.160 and that to me is the shocking shocking things. So this works not only 440 00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:27.799 in your environment, but it also helps you with physical ailments also. Oh 441 00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:33.039 yeah, the Baguah. Every single situation in life, there's a body part, 442 00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:37.759 there's an organ in your body, there's nothing, there's a time of 443 00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:42.240 day, time of year, there's your relationship in your family, like eldest 444 00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:49.680 son, youngest daughter. There's nothing outside of the realm of the universe that's 445 00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:56.640 not built into the functuey parameters. The only thing I can say of late 446 00:31:56.240 --> 00:32:01.440 is what I consider contemporary sung shue that you don't see in too many books, 447 00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.039 and how to deal with it, and it's the it's now called the 448 00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:08.160 field of bow biology, which is a German word bow biology like living home. 449 00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:15.400 And that's with all the emf rate on off guessing VOCs, you know, 450 00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:19.759 all that, all the construction materials that we're living with now that aren't 451 00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:24.079 addressed in traditional functue texts and things that we now have to deal with, 452 00:32:24.160 --> 00:32:30.079 like routers and RF and cell towers and things like that. So I I 453 00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:36.039 train people to do what I do, and I include that contemporary functue because 454 00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:37.960 you could be in the best bed position in the world. But if the 455 00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:43.519 circuit panels right behind your house and your router's next to your bed and you're 456 00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:45.640 not going to be you know, and you're sleeping above the garage or whatever, 457 00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:49.599 you're not going to have a healthy life. So wow, yeah, 458 00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:52.200 things you don't think about absolutely. Is this something that could help Karen with 459 00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:57.119 her back for example, going back to that because she's been the reason why 460 00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:00.720 she's going to acupuncture is to try to help fix her back. It just 461 00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:05.359 seems like you're shuttered back right now with that window behind her. So that's 462 00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:07.960 a screen. Funny enough, we'll give you a peek behind the curtain. 463 00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:13.839 That's actually a screen with a light, oh sing behind is it's not actually 464 00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:15.240 a window. Yeah. So the back of the house, the back of 465 00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:19.160 the property, the back of the chair back, the back of the headboard, 466 00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:22.640 and the back where you're where you're cooking. That I would say, 467 00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:24.480 that's the only place I haven't talked about is where you really need to be 468 00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:28.799 in that good armchair position. It's called the armchair position, you know, 469 00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:34.359 like you got all protection from behind, arms on the side protecting you. 470 00:33:34.359 --> 00:33:37.079 You know, Guido and Frido, the mafia, they know funk shway, 471 00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:40.960 they just don't know. They funks way back to the door like you will. 472 00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:45.839 That's me function in my whole life. I had no idea that really 473 00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:51.839 that is legit Funk's way like that is. It's that kind of common sense 474 00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:55.519 of don't put yourself in a vulnerable position. The Twin Towers in New York, 475 00:33:55.720 --> 00:34:00.559 and believe it or not, the United Nations building have been in Functue 476 00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:06.920 books pre nine to eleven like long time as vulnerable buildings, and the World 477 00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:12.239 Trade Center especially was considered vulnerable to the wind. Fung shwe is wind. 478 00:34:12.519 --> 00:34:16.000 Water, Fung is wind, hue is water when you smash them together, 479 00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:21.159 kind of like honey and moon now becomes honeymoon the night after of your wedding. 480 00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:25.280 Fung and shwe wind and water is the art of this creating environments that 481 00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:32.280 are supportive. And the fung is the wind, which means the unseen forces. 482 00:34:35.000 --> 00:34:38.039 That's for the skeptics right there, the invisible forces that can wipe you 483 00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:42.920 off the map or not. And the shue is the water, the scene 484 00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:46.599 forces. This is the yin and the yng of stuff in your environment. 485 00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:52.920 And RF and electromagnetic fields you know they fall in the wind category. Right 486 00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:57.000 You can't see that RF pounding on your head from your cell phone or whatever. 487 00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:00.840 So yeah, just that's how you know, if it helps the skeptics 488 00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:07.079 get their head around the unseen forces, it is built into the program as 489 00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:10.000 well. You have got me hooked. I am so going to look into 490 00:35:10.039 --> 00:35:16.480 this thing because it sounds fascinating. I can't completely wrap my head around it. 491 00:35:16.639 --> 00:35:21.440 But hey, if it works, I'm all for it. Right, 492 00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:27.480 But you know all these negative this patterns. Yeah, well, but then 493 00:35:27.559 --> 00:35:30.440 to your point, a little bit early on, people you know, might 494 00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:31.440 pick up a book and say, Okay, I need to put a water 495 00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:35.000 fountain in this corner of the room. I need to make sure that there's 496 00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:38.119 a window on this corner of the room. And some people might go overboard, 497 00:35:38.199 --> 00:35:43.480 or not go far enough, or even do the wrong gasp, wrong 498 00:35:43.559 --> 00:35:45.800 thing at the wrong place. So really the best thing to do is to 499 00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:50.199 go with someone like you who as a professional, who can actually tell them 500 00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:52.679 this is what you need to do. Right. Is there any danger to 501 00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:57.000 try and do this on your own? Yeah? You know. I wrote 502 00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:00.239 move your Stuff, Change your Life, almost like a laugh while you learn 503 00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:04.679 type of a book. It was the most out of the box functioned book 504 00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:10.239 in its day. But I knew that the energy of excitedly reading is just 505 00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:15.480 a healthier energy than going, oh my god, the toiling of mathematics. 506 00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.920 And I don't know, I don't get funk STUEI you know, I just 507 00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:22.559 knew if I could bring that lightheartedness into it. So I'm going to say 508 00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:27.760 to you, movies out there that are wanting to experiment. With the right 509 00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:30.719 intention, you can hardly go wrong. I'm just going to start out, 510 00:36:31.239 --> 00:36:36.320 take it down like you just chill out. That's your chill pill. And 511 00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:39.920 so with the right intention, which is the invisible forces, your intention, 512 00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:46.280 your intention plus the physical change in your environment. That's the wind half, 513 00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:50.960 the invisible half. Why am I doing this? I want more money? 514 00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:53.840 Whatever? And then I'm going to put the purple thing over there, which 515 00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.719 if you read my book, they all picked them a purple thing. So 516 00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:01.400 we're going to do that intention well us the thing equals the functionue cure. 517 00:37:01.760 --> 00:37:06.599 So if you get the intention right, it's you know, you've got at 518 00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:10.559 least fifty percent. My teacher used to say sixty percent. I usually say 519 00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:16.880 sixty to one hundred percent, because if you understand the laws of like Bruce 520 00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:21.000 Lee's one inch punch, how can he kill somebody with one inch punch. 521 00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:24.679 There's more going on than the space of one inch for him to kill somebody 522 00:37:24.719 --> 00:37:30.679 with his one inch punch. So it is the energy that's not seen that 523 00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:35.239 is really the most powerful thing. So I tell my clients sixty to one 524 00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:38.800 hundred percent, meaning if you can function your mind, you can function your 525 00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:45.079 childhood home and go through quantum time right through. We say it's a quantum 526 00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:47.519 thing. So you're like, I had a sucky childhood. Let's go back 527 00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:51.400 and paint that wall green, and let's go back and do you know, 528 00:37:51.480 --> 00:37:55.199 let's let's mentally, you know, go through time and space and do that. 529 00:37:55.679 --> 00:37:59.039 I just had to throw that in the dear because it was a skeptic. 530 00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.960 I mean, you'd be like that way you see my face right like, 531 00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:08.360 oh, I had to do that because I'm just showing me the quantumness 532 00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:14.360 of this, the quantumness. What if you move a lot? So by 533 00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:17.400 the time I was twelve, I had lived in seven different houses. Like 534 00:38:19.039 --> 00:38:22.679 does each like will that affect you? Every house is like a different chapter 535 00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.400 of your life. You know when people go back, oh my god, 536 00:38:25.400 --> 00:38:29.079 I was so healthy there, but boy I couldn't keep a job, or 537 00:38:29.239 --> 00:38:32.360 oh my god, my relationship tanked and that that was the third divorce that 538 00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:37.320 was in that house. You know the houses that address is equal to seven, 539 00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:38.880 they're the four closed ones. The house is an equal ones, there's 540 00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:43.400 the divorce ones. You know. I help people choose real estate too, 541 00:38:43.559 --> 00:38:45.920 you know, I go give me your top picks and I'll help you pick 542 00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:47.280 the one that's best for you based on what I know about you and what 543 00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:52.079 you want out of your life. And believe me, it's all the you 544 00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:55.599 know what's on the market. The happy homes people love, they don't ever 545 00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:59.079 want to give that home. They pass it down generationally, right. But 546 00:38:59.119 --> 00:39:00.159 the ones that are just like, yeah, we got divorce in that house, 547 00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:04.719 pass it on. I got to be prudent when you're out there real 548 00:39:04.840 --> 00:39:08.719 estate shopping, you know, And that's why traditionally the Chinese prefer a brand 549 00:39:08.719 --> 00:39:13.480 new house that nobody else's energy is in, and they create that luck for 550 00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:16.280 themselves. Do people put you on retainer and they just carry around like a 551 00:39:16.280 --> 00:39:21.760 guru or a lawyer or something like that. I do that just because I'm 552 00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:25.400 now in my world travel loving life stage. I built my life. I 553 00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:30.239 don't know, I'm having a lot of fun doing what I'm doing, living 554 00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:32.880 my life, and so I'm a little risk. That's why I'm training people 555 00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:37.039 to do what I do, because I'm trying to be like time for a 556 00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:40.800 moment to go play. You guys take over from here. So I'm trying 557 00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:44.360 to build up that next generation of lineage. I guess if you want to 558 00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:49.599 call it traditional what they would say in the functioning world. But what was 559 00:39:49.639 --> 00:39:54.159 your question? Again, I don't even remember what it was now as a 560 00:39:54.159 --> 00:40:00.400 matter of fact, but retainer does someone get I do have this. It's 561 00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.559 called the Move Your Stuff with Karen membership, where twice a month there's calls 562 00:40:06.199 --> 00:40:09.360 and live calls and people send in their floor plans and they send in their 563 00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:12.719 pictures and they're like, I'm functionally in this room? Am I doing it 564 00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:15.320 right? You know? So I help people move along and that's just a 565 00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:19.960 real efficient way for me to hit a whole bunch of people in one sitting. 566 00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:22.400 And because it's a group setting, you know, people learn from others. 567 00:40:22.480 --> 00:40:24.719 I didn't even think about that question or oh I'm going to try that 568 00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:29.159 because it was a success for her because they always report back and they're like, 569 00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:30.960 you know what, remember I said I've wanted five thousand dollars. This 570 00:40:31.159 --> 00:40:34.920 was just one a recent call. She goes like, the five thousand dollars 571 00:40:34.960 --> 00:40:36.800 just came up. She's like, it was less than two weeks and she 572 00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:39.320 was like, I'm just reporting back that thing she said work. So everybody 573 00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:43.559 does, you know. So that's kind of fun because it's a group setting, 574 00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:49.400 and then I do virtual consultations where you know, they send in their 575 00:40:49.400 --> 00:40:52.519 floor plan, they send in pictures, or we walk through with the laptop. 576 00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:54.199 Now, you know, there's different ways we can do it. And 577 00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:58.239 I ask them what they want to change out their lives, how they perceived 578 00:40:58.239 --> 00:41:00.880 their life to be now, how they wanted to be in the future, 579 00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:04.320 and then I give them the little laundry list of to dos, and then 580 00:41:04.360 --> 00:41:07.480 I asked them to check back with me and we fine tune and tweak and 581 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.920 so that's kind of you know, how I help people now. So that's 582 00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:15.039 a great point that you don't actually have to go into someone's house. You 583 00:41:15.039 --> 00:41:17.000 can actually do this virtually now, so anyone in any part of the world. 584 00:41:17.159 --> 00:41:22.000 The show's listened to in the UK, in Ireland and Australia, we're 585 00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:24.559 all over the world, so anybody across the planet could reach out to you 586 00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:28.920 and you can do a virtual consultation with them. Yep, yep. The 587 00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:32.840 only thing that I cannot do is test for electromagnetic fields and radio frequencies in 588 00:41:32.880 --> 00:41:37.840 those bowl biology things, which I will do for my live clients because I'm 589 00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:40.480 there with my meters and things like that. But you know, but we 590 00:41:40.679 --> 00:41:44.360 resolve that another way, you know, like I could send the meters and 591 00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:46.800 teach, you know whatever. There's ways of doing things. But yeah, 592 00:41:46.840 --> 00:41:50.760 so I do virtual consultations. I travel all over the world doing that. 593 00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:54.119 That's that's literally why I became home free, because I was gone more than 594 00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:58.880 I was home, and I wanted to do the experiment on what does how 595 00:41:58.960 --> 00:42:05.159 much opportunity does space give you if you have no things? And so I 596 00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:08.719 travel the world doing these things live and I do them virtually all day long. 597 00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:14.679 That's my job. Wow, well, this has been forty minutes that 598 00:42:14.760 --> 00:42:19.159 have absolutely changed my life. We'll talk offline because we're gonna have you give 599 00:42:19.239 --> 00:42:22.679 us at least a consultation because I'm pretty sure we have some really messed up 600 00:42:22.760 --> 00:42:24.360 stuff in this house. We need to fix something, all this stuff. 601 00:42:24.440 --> 00:42:30.519 If you type in in the promo code under my virtual consultation on my website, 602 00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:35.159 they'll get four hundred dollars off. And just you know, I've developed 603 00:42:35.159 --> 00:42:37.519 that for my people that are just limping in. They've never read my book. 604 00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:40.760 Most people read my book. It's in many languages and they read my 605 00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:44.559 book. And that's why I get these consultations all over the world. But 606 00:42:44.719 --> 00:42:46.039 for those of you who are new to me, you know, I'm happy 607 00:42:46.079 --> 00:42:50.639 to show you what I do and you know, what's that new life worth 608 00:42:50.719 --> 00:42:53.039 for you? You know, like what's the value of that getting rid of 609 00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:58.440 that health condition or getting your children better help in school or whatever you know, 610 00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:02.039 you name it. I'm confident in what I do, so I can 611 00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:05.960 take on the challenge. That's great. So we're going to go ahead and 612 00:43:06.000 --> 00:43:08.000 add that to the members only section of our website. So if you are 613 00:43:08.079 --> 00:43:15.280 interested in reaching out to our guest to have a virtual consultation, be sure 614 00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:21.480 to join our members section so that you can have access to that special discount 615 00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:23.679 that she's so graciously offered.

You know, in this book there's 622 00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:51.559 a rerouting what do they call that redirecting website. This is this book is 623 00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:54.079 my follow up to the movie Your Stuff one I'll make a shift change of 624 00:43:54.119 --> 00:44:00.360 life, and this has some of the healthy home stuff in it.
