How Broken Items Affect Your Home's Energy (Feng Shui Declutter Guide)
Let’s Keep It Real
Many homes have chipped bowls, cracked mirrors, stopped clocks, or broken chairs tucked away somewhere.
Core Logic 🧲
Everything carries energy.
Broken items tend to hold stagnant or “incomplete” energy.
Translation
Keeping items that no longer function well can subtly reinforce a mindset of “making do” or settling for less than you deserve.
Releasing them often creates space for fresh energy and new possibilities.
💡 Golden Tip
Consider letting go of broken items. Many people notice their space feels lighter and clearer afterward.
Items to Review ✨
- Chipped bowls and plates
- Cracked mirrors
- Stopped clocks
- Broken chairs
- Burnt-out light bulbs
- Leaking faucets
- Stuck drawers
Feng Shui Practice
When you have time:
- Walk through each room in your home
- Notice any broken or non-functioning items
- Repair what’s worth fixing, and consider releasing what isn’t
- Notice how the space feels afterward
