Is your desk a shambolic mess of stacked up files, a half-eaten lunch, and general clutter?
Using psychic principals to make your office a calmer, more productive place may be your answer.
Psychic medium Jade-Sky, from Brisbane, Australia, has shared her top tips for cleansing your work space to ensure you're not getting weighed down by unproductive or stifling energy.
Jade has been a medium for 22 years, and has recently turned her skills to how to change the energy in spaces. She's written two books on the subject, first Clear Your Home, and now Clear Your Office. Here, she shares her top tips to having a clear and productive workplace.
Is your desk a cluttered mess? It could be affecting how your daily mindset - but a new book shares tips on how to 'cleanse' your working space
CLUTTER
Clutter, Jade says, is the worst enemy to productivity in your office. 'If you have a cluttered desk, you'll have a cluttered mind,' she explained.
In order to improve productivity, the psychic suggests making sure that everything has a place on your desk.
She also says that making sure at least half of your desk is free of items at all times helps a great deal. 'If everything is in its place you feel calm and organised,' she said. 'It makes a big difference.'

FUNG SHUI
The way your office is organised is also key to mainta ining good energy that will keep you happy and productive.
Jade says that whenever possible, do not have your back pointing directly at the door as this is very bad Fung Shui. The best position is having your desk directly facing the door, which the the 'power position'.
If it's not possible to face the door, then according to the medium you should give as much room as possible around your desk to give good flow.

ARRANGING YOUR SPACE
If you work in an open plan office and don't have your own closed space, Jade says the next best thing is to Fung Shui your desk space.
Getting as much sunlight as possible where you work gives you more energy and focus according to Jade.
'People don't realise that feelings are very connected to their environment,' she said. 'Clearing your space can have a huge impact on how you feel.'

DECORATE YOUR DESK
While Jade encourages de-cluttering for a clear mind, there are items she recommends keeping on your desk ti inspire and uplift.
Personal photos of family and friends help you feel happier and motivated, as do fresh flowers - but ensure you throw them out when they go bad.
Plants, especially jade or bamboo are very good for Fung Shu i, while Himalayan rock salt lamps help attract and keep positive energy in the workplace.
Finally, stick to light colours to not drag down the energy on your desk.
