Feng Shui Used in Calling Meetings to Order is an Energy Enhancing Success

Del Mar, CA—To call the meeting to order, some board presidents slam gavels; others clink water glasses. At Cuvee Restaurant on Wednesday mornings, new president of the Carmel Valley Chapter of Business Network International (BNI), Cathryn Golden, delicately taps a Zenergy Chime™ that resonates a beautiful tone, which will vary in intensity and clarity depending on the energy levels in the room.

The Chime, recognized by BNI chapter members as the “meeting is called to order” bell, is actually one that Golden specifically bought for use at the weekly meetings. As she “chimes” the meeting to order, she is “toning” the room primarily to refocus and

re-energize it. In Feng Shui, sound makers such as chimes are also a traditional enhancement to call in positive Ch’i energy. This helps raise the level of effectiveness of an environment.

“We’ve all become curious about the change in the Chime’s tone over the last few months since Cathryn started her leadership term. Many of us like to check in with her and ask ‘so is it going to be a high energy morning?’” says Helene Schriber, Vice President of Carmel Valley BNI and travel consultant for K Travel.

“I enjoy using it as a way to easily read and balance my surroundings. When your ear becomes attuned, you can pick up the subtle nuances of a room’s energy, and then make minor Feng Shui adjustments if needed,” says Golden. “I also like to think that this ‘surround-sound’ approach helps everyone redirect their attention to the activities of our morning meeting. And besides, I like coming up with unique ways of doing things.”

Golden is a certified, national Feng Shui expert and professional organizing consultant. Her business, Balanced Environments, develops creative solutions for her clients; ones that focus on “simple changes—incredible results™.” The services she provides include Feng Shui consultations, clutter analysis and clutter clearing, professional organizing, energy space clearing (dowsing), a variety of educational trainings and seminars, and guest speaker availability. Golden is a graduate of The Western School of Feng Shui, and has studied with numerous internationally known experts. A founding member of the Association of Feng Shui Consultants in San Diego, Golden has been featured in print and broadcast media throughout the U.S. She is also a member of the International Feng Shui Guild and National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO).
