Solar Chimes
What’s your level of sress today? None? That’s amazing! Did you know that hundreds of scientific studies have proven that stress is one of the most common causes of numerous catastrophic and debilitative diseases in humans today? I would estimate that 80% of adults are worried more than ever about their future, and security, of their assets. How does that level of stress work at home? This is where the problems begin. It is now so vital, that homeowners bring as much harmony into the home as possible. It can be done with a few things placed for optimal ambience.
These few little changes can help relax, and uplift even the most teeth grinding, tight fisted individual.
Sun,Wind, and Dreams
The wind is blowing, and the weather is quite
warm for February. I am sitting at my desk
upstairs, with the window
open, and can hear my Wind Chimes playing
their
dreamy melody.
I love my Wind Chimes. It’s like a concert
when
they play. I love to
daydream, and imagine I’m in a different
place,
far away, enjoying the
islands, or the sunshine towering over the
mountains of some far eastern land.
They are quite nostalgic, and at the same
time,
uplift and soothe the
soul.
This is atmosphere at it’s best!!
Create A Warm Atmosphere In Your Home
Candle warmers provide the warmth and fragrance that you want for your room. In the bathroom for instance, the fruity smell of grapefruit or citrus will fill the room and relieve your stress after a hard day at work, while soaking in the bath. In the bedroom a chamomile candle can send you to sweet slumber in no time at all. In the parlor, it will be the first pleasant experience as you enter your home. They not only give warmth but look great among your décor.
Candle warmers come in designs that will please everyone. Whether made from ceramic, resin or glass, the candle jar will have designs that will be a joy to mom, dad, sister, brother and baby. A hand painted jar can carry a special message. So, you’re afraid of the open flame? An electric candle warmer serves just as well without flame. It is the safest way to enjoy a candle fragrance.
Relax To The Sweet, Sweet Sound Of The Wind
The lilting sound of a wind chime can be very relaxing. Chimes are made of various materials that could be metal, wood, glass or clay. When buying a wind chime, try each one available because each has its own unique sound. Do you enjoy the soft whispering of a calm breeze or the bold sound of heavy wood against wood? Take your time. Try each one and find the one that you love best.
The sound of chimes is usually produced by the parts being moved around by the wind. But did you know that the joyous sound of chimes is possible even without the wind? Solar chimes need no wind or batteries to provide the lilting sound of the wind chime. Tabletop solar chimes, for example, can be placed on your bedside table or the dining table and continue to provide the sound that you love so much. Aside from the sound, you will also be enamored by its handsome look.

Feng Shui
“The wind is mild, the sun is warm, the water is clear, the vegetation lush.” We have all experienced discomfort,illness,even bad luck. This excerpt from a popular poem describes the ideal setting, or “landscape” in our surroundings! We feel more comfortable when the energy around us is flowing positive and pleasant. (This is where feng-Wind), Shui (water), come in.
We have all heard that the proper placement of objects in a room, and that certain objects give positive energy, or “Chi’. Solar chimes, a water feature, a bell and even a lamp etc., can fix some of the discomfort in our area.
This is so true! The gentle sound of solar chimes, the flow of a water fountain., the aroma of a soy candle–. These are all part of the loveliness of enjoying our environment, and feeling of positive energy!
