Three Ways to Use a Feng Shui Mirror
1) To Increase ‘Chi’ energy to get Wealth The mirror is a tool for expansion of chi energy. Many houses have small darkened areas which can be hallways or rooms without much light access. If you place a mirror in these areas you will dramatically increase the flow of energy in the area and compensate for the lack of light. This is now a flow area for chi and you will find your opportunities for wealth and fortune There can of course be too much light and in such a case the mirror would not attract chi but supercharge the area in a damaging way. The aim is balance and harmony for each area of the house and its particular need.
2) To Enrich Your Relationships and love life What ever a mirror reflects you are effectively increasing its energy. To place a mirror to reflect the family as it relaxes can increase the harmony of the family. To place a mirror reflecting a beautiful vase or painting will increase the beauty and health of a family.This enriches relationships and love opportunities.
3) To Prevent Ill Health by Deflecting negative energy Just as the mirror reflects the beauty in a home it can be used to deflect any negative energy that is flowing through a home. For instance if at the entrance to a house runs a busy, noisy, road ideally a mirror on the front door will deflect the damaging energy from the business outside the house. Of course most would not want this so we would place it in the immediate hallway at the entrance. We are course not deflecting sound but you will be suprised at the calmness that follows such a placement of a mirror as a Feng Shui strategy.
Final Tips: Keep mirrors clean and bright for optimum effect. If using a mirror to deflect negative energy make it discreet and pointing outwards Be careful to use mirrors in the home at the right angles to get the best Chi Don’t use mirrors that have engravings Oval mirrors are always the best shape having no sharp angles

Cheap Teeth Whitening: An Attractive Smile At An Attractive Price
Wednesday, February 6th, 2008Many people hope that perfect smiles will bring them success. They see such an asset as the way to get the best jobs, have the most friends, and generally be successful in life. This may not be the sole reason for a person’s success, but a good smile can be a great asset for a person’s self-perception and increase his or her confidence in interacting with other people.
Despite this, however, is it wise to spend thousands of dollars trying to achieve this goal? Cosmetic dentist treatments can cost up to two thousand dollars. Is this a reasonable sum to invest in one’s smile? Some people may find this to be so, but others may not be able to afford this kind of money. Is cheap teeth whitening a fantasy or a reality?
It is indeed. Teeth can be whiter and brighter without incurring a huge expense. The least expensive way to achieve whiter teeth without paying through the nose is through the use of a toothbrush. One very effective brushing compound is baking soda. This costs less than one dollar, and lasts for many months if it is only used for this purpose. Brushing your teeth with baking soda can result in several shades of whitening after continued use.
Ultrabrite Advanced Whitening is another effective way to whiten your teeth with brushing. A tube of Ultrabrite costs under a dollar, and, according to the experts who publish Consumer Reports, this is one of the most effective ways to whiten your teeth.
Using regular strength (three percent) hydrogen peroxide also results in effective whitening. Using this solution once or twice daily to gargle helps to remove stains that discolor the surface of the tooth. Like the other previously discussed methods, this is also available for less than one dollar, and a single bottle will last for several months.
Another low-cost whitening method is using whitening strips. This product costs relatively little compared to bleaching kits, and effectively achieves similar results over approximately the same amount of time. These cost around $25 for a two week supply. Occasionally, the savvy shopper can locate coupons to defray the cost.
Other people prefer to use liquid gels, which can be painted on the teeth and used overnight. Available in 8 ounce containers, these gels cost less than $10. It can be a very effective method provided the gel dries completely on the teeth.
Whether you choose these or find other unique bargains, consider the possibility that these cheap teeth whitening methods may be nearly as effective as paying a cosmetic dentist for more immediate results. Do the research and choose the method that is most effective and affordable for you.
