(20) Alcohol Abuse (Feng Shui Tip of the Day)
If you
or anyone you know struggles with alcohol addiction, then Feng Shui has a special step to addendum the other 12 that you might
be imbibing these days. Of course, this cure is strictly an energetic one that complements any other therapies that one might
need to get and stay sober. Take any lamp and place it in the 'Family/Friends' area on the main floor. Change the bulb to
reflect the highest wattage it can handle. Now get a photo of the person who is working to get clean and put that in a wooden
frame. Position the framed photo so that it receives light from the lamp in the family area. Turn this lamp on for at least
3 hours a day or leave this love light burning for as long as you'd like inside each 24-hour period. Do this for at least
27 days to send energy, love and light to the one who needs it most.
