Pets are family members and should be treated as such. The
design of your home has a dramatic affect on their health
and well-being. When your environment is in harmony with nature,
it will have a positive influence. If not, behavioral and
health problems will show up in your animals in subtle and
not so subtle ways. By applying the environmental science
of Vastu Shastra, you can create harmony and balance in your
home that will support your pets.
Vastu Shastra was written some 7,000-10,000 years ago in
India by rishis, or men of great wisdom. Over a period of
thousands of years, these wise scholars studied and chronicled
the strong influence that the physical environment has on
all living things. Through these observations, an exact science
was formulated, which established the principles behind some
of the world’s most enduring structures.
My wife and I have experienced firsthand the benefits that
some simple corrections using Vastu can have on pets. Our
dog had a variety of skin and bladder control problems. Our
cat was aggressive and territorial, fighting with the dog
and bringing into the house anything she could carry. It always
surprised us how she could get adult rabbits and baby crows
through the cat door, but she managed! Small but effective
changes using Vastu, reduced these problems significantly.
According to the science of Vastu Shastra, all five elements
(earth, water, fire, air and space) have an impact on your
pets. Vastu balances the five elements and promotes harmony
within the environment. When there is harmony, stress is reduced
and animals can find their equilibrium. Due to their size,
pets are far more susceptible to the consequences of poor
air quality and indoor pollutants than their caretakers. Flooring,
decorating materials, mattresses, molds, toxic gases, pesticides
and electronic equipment can all degrade the air you and your
pet breath, even if you are seemingly unaffected.
These are examples of the dangers lurking in your home, unbeknownst
to you. In this situation, what you can’t see can harm both
you and your pets. Knowledge is power. Becoming aware of what
you can do to protect your pets is the best preventative measure
there is. We can’t emphasize enough the importance of reading
all labels carefully to determine the safety of any materials
that you use in your home.
Another factor that we’ve seen affect pets as well as humans
is Geopathic Stress. This occurs when radiation follows lines
of underground utilities and streams. Electrical wiring in
the home can also disrupt the balance of the five elements
if improperly placed. Such conditions have been scientifically
proven to influence the health and disposition of your pets.
Indoor environmental testing for geopathic stress can build
your peace of mind and protect you and your pets.
There are several things you can do yourself to make changes
in your environment for positive results. Here are some actions
you can take today that will make a world of difference:
Fresh air is extremely important for pets. Many houses
are so tightly built that household pollutants build up
in the interior air if windows are not open. Having a window
open, even a quarter of an inch, will help eliminate toxins
that can accumulate and circulate in the air.
Also, be aware that pets like the room temperature a little
cooler than we do. Too much heat (fire) can make them lethargic
and shorten their life span.
Changing their water twice a day is also essential since
water absorbs many of the air born toxins. Make sure to
give them purified water rather than tap water. Tap water
can contain bacteria and chemicals that aggravate a variety
of sensitivities.
These are just a few steps that you can take to create proactive
support for your pets. According to Vastu Shastra, all five
elements need to be considered and balanced properly to experience
the full advantages of Vastu. We suggest having your home
analyzed by a qualified Vastu professional. Because they are
sensitive by nature, you will be delighted by how quickly
pets respond to an environment that has been balanced in harmony
with Nature using the science of Vastu Shastra.
