ADHD/Bi-Polar Client Consultation
From Nancilee’s TELEseminar
With my continuing studies with Nancilee Wydra towards a Masters certification with Feng Shui Institute of America, part of the studies are conducted via TELEseminar where many Certified Professional Pyramid Feng Shui Consultants are gathered to discuss the twists and turns that surface as we are “curing all of the Feng Shui ills” for our clients. Offering them a full palette of sensorial experience for their needs is part of the Pyramid Feng Shui experience. Finding the problem and “curing it” is Nancilee’s field of expertise.
This was the problem one of the consultants encountered with a client.
“The young son has ADHD, Bipolar, and Oppositional Defiance Disorder. The mother had recently painted his bedroom in blues and silver, an ocean theme, creating an underwater-like experience for this room with fish on the walls. She thought this would create a soothing and calming room for him. It did the opposite, he was “wilder” than ever and she has had to move him to another room which has helped some. Any suggestions on how she can change his room to help support him in his disorders and keep him calm?”
Nancilee reminded us that what would normally be great for a person to enjoy, feeling like you were living under the sea with the fish swimming all around could be terrifying for a child that is in constant motion. Perhaps even a feeling of “drowning” in that room with all of the movement could have a negative effect on a ADHD/Bipolar mind set making them “wilder” than ever.
The suggestions that Nancilee thought would work best would be to:
Remove the fish from the wall immediately, as this in itself gives the feeling of constant movement causing the child to feel even more unstable.
Change the blue color that causes instability for this child, as he experiences a being “sucked into the blue” panic, frightening him, possibly causing faster thoughts and more fears, activating the ADHD/Bipolar condition. The isolation of blue would disconnect this child into his own rapid thoughts and fears, more than any other color. Use a soft terracotta color, promoting a sense of being grounded and stability for this child’s future comfort and security.
All silver color should be eliminated. Silver like white, is reflective of metal, invoking constant mental thought processing, causing the mind of the child to be in constant motion, flashing through even more random thoughts. This is the worst possible scenario for ADHD and Bipolar thought processes.
Use square shapes, decorations, rugs, design motifs to bring a significant feeling of being grounded, solid, stable for a huge help here to be decor-friendly.
No round shapes, reflective surfaces, shiny things or mirrors should be displayed here.
Place family pictures, those with the child represented in the images, connecting the child to his family on the walls surrounding him. Use peaceful scenes with calming effects of seeing himself with all of his loved ones right there, pictured with him in the art on the wall. This will have a very stabilizing effect on him.
The far right corner of the bedroom is the Relationship area in Pyramid Feng Shui and this is a great place for those solid family pictures to reassure this child.
The middle wall, on the right hand side of each room is the Children and Descendents area where more photos would be appropriate. Subject matter should be calming, not frantic or anything that would prompt fear or anxiety.
The middle of the left side wall is the Community and Family area. This would also be a beneficial area for more pictures to stabilize this child’s mind set.
Remember things that would calm a normal personality will not work with ADHD/Bipolar sensitive personalities. Experiment carefully and find the right Pyramid Feng Shui environment for a perfectly balanced, centered and stable lifestyle for your child.
Your child’s future depends on it.
