We recently moved from our home in Earlysville to a smaller home in

downtown Charlottesville. Our move involved the usual packing and

moving of belongings, but we also had stacks of boxes filled with

things from previous moves over the past twenty five years.

Overwhelmed with how to get through all of this before our rapidly

approaching closing date, we reached out to Jane and Teresa for help.

They were super responsive, and helped us form a plan to organize

and expedite all aspects of the move.


We were so impressed with how well Teresa and Jane worked as a

team. Jane worked directly with my husband on packing and

preparing for our movers, while Teresa worked with me on the

daunting task of going through more than twenty five years of

accumulated “mystery” boxes, some that hadn’t been opened since

our first move together. In the end our move went smoothly and J&T’s

help was invaluable. They are dedicated, reliable, creative, wonderful

to work with, and never hesitated to go the extra mile for us.


They work in such a way that is both practical and kind. Jane’s artistic

and aesthetic sensibility provided us with incredibly attractive and

organized open-shelving in our new kitchen. Jane is like the chess

player of organizing and moving. She has a strategy worked out 5

steps ahead, and knows how to execute her plan. 


For those who need extra support and compassion in dealing with the emotional aspects of memory-laden stuff, Teresa is outstanding. She is patient, intuitive,

and open to opportunities for gentle healing. They always knew what

to do with every single item, offered the options to us, and magically,

the mountain of decisions that threatened to engulf us, became

manageable.


What could have been a traumatic experience became empowering,

positive and joyful. We highly recommend Jane and Teresa for their

phenomenal ability to transform a potentially very difficult experience

into a very positive one.

Hire them! You won’t regret it!

Here is my testimonial, my dear sisters of feng shui healing:

 

I felt overwhelmed and frustrated with the “mud room.” It felt irritated when I walked in, like an unsurmountable jungle of attachments.

 

I felt like “Ahhh!” Like I can breath and feel the light of the room. It is now called the “Light room.”

 

The finishing of the light room helped me operate on a higher frequency, able to do my home business smoothly, and helped me with creative projects now that I knew what I had and where my craft supplies were.

 

Well, it inspired  the continuation of a whole house organization. We moved to the kitchen. We wanted a place for all things.  It made life and my dreams feel possible. The elimination of the overwhelm made my creativity soar! I can think now.

 

Jane and Teresa’s superpowers are energy, compassion, counsel, motivation, and ceremony. 

 

At first, the idea of setting a time to do it was daunting Bc I knew I had my work cut out to even prepare for these organizing goddesses to set foot in the door. I let go of so much and looked at everything I had, so when they came, I had a clean canvas of a room to begin in. It was then, their ideas and counsel allowed me to see things from a new perspective. I let go of even more with their guidance and it was a breeze to implement the new system by working together. It would have been a lot of decision-making on my own, so Playing with them made the process and time flow by. I wasn’t left with a huge mess, Bc we completed the room we set out to do. 

 

The most comforting things were opening with ceremony and intention with Teresa’s aromatherapy and sound healing, allowing us to  connect with spiritual support, along with my inner world to face the project. Also, Jane’s high-frequency energy and executive focus to finish the project helped me feel supported and never dropped. We even closed with sacred healing space when it was completed. I felt like Teresa and Jane were the midwives of feng shui, who assisted me through the birth canal of clarity and creative function of my home. Thank you.

Thank goodness for Jane Belisle! I have four rooms in my home where I have been accumulating miscellaneous items for years - items that I was sure I would use one day or my children could use; items that have been handed down to me; items that I was keeping just because I have the space.  I actually didn’t know what I had… I knew it needed to be dealt with...I knew I wouldn’t deal with it on my own.

 

Jane showed up on the first day ready to work and worked by my side until the job was done.  I appreciate her professionalism, great ideas, gentle nudges, and for keeping the momentum going when I was feeling weary.  Jane worked by my side through the entire process and offered objective feedback and tough love when I grappled with an object.  She even loaded her car up with items to rid of and made phone calls for items to sell.  With Jane’s help, I now know where everything is and it’s so organized!  

 

Thank you, Jane!

I have known Teresa Hermann for many years. She is an amazing human being: compassionate, perceptive, sensitive, loving, kind, organized and emotionally intelligent.

Recently my husband died. I knew the only person I wanted to help me clear out some of his belongs was Teresa.

She immediately agreed to help. She was extremely sensitive to me, my needs, and the huge emotional challenge facing me.

First, we sat together and talked about what I wanted and how I wanted to proceed. Then we did a little ritual.

Throughout the process she was sensitive to my state of mind. We cleared the space as a team. She was respectful and accurately perceived when it was time to stop for the day.

I felt supported, respected, and cared for.

Also, when we completed our task, she removed the items from the house, so I wouldn’t be burdened.

There was no better person for the job. It was never easier for me to hold feelings and letting go in balance.
