Bio: Julie Anna Alvarez
I created A Life in Harmony x HCS to help you optimize your life! After 20+ years of helping a multitude of clients through the offerings of my Feng Shui consulting and Vision Board workshops business Happy Chi Solutions, now through A Life in Harmony x HCS I help you harness energy solutions drawn from my Feng Shui expertise, Vision Board mastery, clutter-clearing know-how, proficiency in leading meditations, and ability to transfer positive, healing energy virtually as a certified Level 1 & Level 2 Reiki practitioner. My unique background allows me to relate to the myriad concerns of both my residential and business clientele. A graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School, I practiced as a licensed New York State attorney and have spent my entire professional career helping people find solutions to improve their circumstances. I continue to help people as founder of A Life in Harmony x HCS, not as a Doctor of Law, but as a practitioner of the Laws of the Universe who makes virtual “house calls.”
A graduate of the internationally acclaimed training program “The Accelerated Path™” founded and taught by Feng Shui expert and author Nancy “Andie” SantoPietro (Feng Shui: Harmony By Design and Feng Shui & Health: The Anatomy of A Home), I was personally mentored by SantoPietro and was a Senior Associate of Nancy SantoPietro & Associates prior to launching HCS as my own Feng Shui consultation and seminar services business in January 2001. In addition to studying with SantoPietro, I also studied with the late H.H. Grand Master Lin Yun Rinpoche, as well as Denise Linn, Katherine Metz, R.D. Chin, Gina Lazenby and Nancy Rosanoff—all noted figures in the world of Feng Shui, Space Clearing, Clutter Clearing, Healthy Homes and Intuition Development. I was certified in Reiki Levels 1 & 2 by Reiki Master Zayda Rivera (Mindful Living with Z). I am also a Certified Infinite Possibilities Trainer (Mike Dooley) I incorporate into my work a lifetime of using affirmations as well as the Law of Attraction. Meditation (including chakra meditations to EFT/Tapping meditations) complements my energy work.
For 20+ years, I have offered a variety of Feng Shui consultation services (on-site and long distance) for homes, personal offices and commercial spaces; clutter diagnosis consults; energetic space clearings; custom-made Feng Shui energy-enhancing crystal bracelets; Feng Shui seminars and Vision Board workshops). The Happy Chi Solutions motto was: “Creating Harmony One Space at a Time!” Now the motto for A Life in Harmony x HCS is “Creating Harmony One Life at a Time!” I am now able to help more people with my virtual online consults and programs that address individuals’ needs in a more fully holistic way.
I have been featured as an expert in the book Secrets of Simplicity: Learn to Live Better With Less by noted author Mary Carlomagno. A past speaker at Live Well New York Expo and the Spa & Resort Expo and Conference, my client list for workshop presentations also includes The New York Times, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Aveda - The Shops at Columbus Circle, Oasis Day Spa, Natural Balance Spa & Wellness Center, LegalSpace (Keynote Speaker), The International Congress of Esthetics, and the Mount Holyoke Alumnae Club. I have also hosted Zoom Master Classes for the Columbia Law School “CLS Collective” and Las Comadres para Las Americas. I was interviewed numerous times on the radio via the Martha Stewart channel on Sirius Satellite Radio, The Lisa Birnbach Show and on New York’s WCBS 880. I have also been a contributor to the EmmeNation.com blog and been interviewed by supermodel, author and activist Emme (who has had me Feng Shui her former and current homes) for the EmmeNation summer Whole You Meetup series. Being fully bilingual, I have also made appearances on television including speaking about Feng Shui topics on the “Jacqueline Internacional” cable TV program. I participated in both the 2013 and 2014 “Casa Latina Expo” in Manhattan (and in the CasaLatina.com blog) and was featured in LatinTrends magazine and Uptown En Espanol (Harlem Community Newspapers) for my work.
I remain committed to helping make this world a more harmonious place one person and one space at a time.
